Network interface module ................................................ (1)

Terminating resistor (110 Ω, 0.5 W) ................................. (1)

■ MODEL NO.

Confirm Model No. marking on the product to be exactly
what you ordered.

■ INSTRUCTION MANUAL

This manual describes necessary points of caution when
you use this product, including installation, connection and
basic maintenance procedures.

POINTS OF CAUTION

■ CONFORMITY WITH EU DIRECTIVES

• The equipment must be mounted inside the instrument
panel of a metal enclosure.

• The actual installation environments such as panel con­figurations, connected devices, connected wires, may af­fect the protection level of this unit when it is integrated
in a panel system. The user may have to review the CE
requirements in regard to the whole system and employ
additional protective measures to ensure the CE conform­ity.

■ HOT INSERTION/REMOVAL OF MODULES

• It is possible to replace the module with the power is sup­plied. Be sure to replace it when the module is not com­municating with a host, as it is possible to affect the sys­tem. However, replacing multiple modules at once may
greatly change line voltage levels. We recommend that
you replace them one by one.

MODEL

• Environmental temperature must be within -10 to +55°C
(14 to 131°F) with relative humidity within 30 to 90% RH
in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.

■ WIRING

• Do not install cables close to noise sources (relay drive
cable, high frequency line, etc.).

• Do not bind these cables together with those in which
noises are present. Do not install them in the same duct.

■ AND ....

• The unit is designed to function as soon as power is sup­plied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is required for
satisfying complete performance described in the data
sheet.

R3-NC3

INSTALLATION

Use the Installation Base Model R3-BS, or Model R3-BSW
for free I/O address capability.

Before mounting the Network Interface Module onto the
Base, be sure to configure the module as explained below.

■ DATA ALLOCATION

The setting determines the data area size assigned to each
I/O module mounted on the base.
The data sent/received via CC-Link is mapped according to
this setting.
See “COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION” and “TRANSMIS­SION DATA DESCRIPTIONS”.

■ STATION NO., BAUD RATE, ETC.

See “COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION”.

■ NETWORK SLOTS ON THE BASE

I/O 1 I/O 2 I/O n

■ POWER INPUT RATING & OPERATIONAL RANGE

• Locate the power input rating marked on the product and
confirm its operational range as indicated below:

100 – 120V AC rating: 85 – 132V, 47 – 66 Hz, approx. 20VA
200 – 240V AC rating: 170 – 264V, 47 – 66 Hz, approx. 20VA

24V DC rating: 24V ±10%, approx. 12W

■ GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

• DO NOT set the switches on the module while the power
is supplied. The switches are used only for maintenance
without the power.

■ ENVIRONMENT

• Indoor use.

• When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the
air, install the unit inside proper housing with sufficient
ventilation.

• Do not install the unit where it is subjected to continuous
vibration. Do not subject the unit to physical impact.

With Model R3-BS base, mount the I/O Modules from the
left end (I/O 1) to the right in order that the Network Mod­ule assigns data areas from I/O 1.
Network Module(s) and Power Module are mounted basi­cally at the right end though technically they could be
mounted in any position.

With Model R3-BSW base, there is no limitation in mount­ing positions as I/O address can be assigned freely to each
module using rotary switches equipped on the base.

• Data Allocation: SW1, SW2

Data Allocation Type* must be assigned to each I/O module
position to specify how many data areas (four types) are to
be occupied by each.
Two bits from SW1 and SW2 are assigned to each posi­tion, and data areas can be specified from the module No. 1
through 8. Setting for No. 9 and later modules is identical
to No. 8.
