moderate injury, or damage to the equipment. Use the equipment
for measurements only within the measurement categories for
which the product is designed.
The service life of the output relays depends on the switching
capacity and switching conditions. Consider the actual application
conditions and use the product within the rated load and electrical
service life. Using the product beyond its service life may occasionally result in contact welding or burning.
V
Precautions for Safe Use
(1) Use and store the Digital Controller in the range of specifications for ambient
temperature and humidity. The service life will decrease due to increased
internal temperature if multiple Digital Controllers are mounted closely side by
side or one on top of the other. If this type of mounting is used, use forced
cooling, e.g., use a fan to blow air onto the Digital Controllers.
(2) Do not prevent heat dissipation by obstructing the periphery of the Digital
Controller. Do not block the vents on the Digital Controller unit.
(3) The supplied power voltage and load must be within the rated and specified
ranges.
(4) Be sure to confirm the name and polarity for each terminal before wiring the
terminal block.
(5) Do not connect anything to unused terminals.
(6) Use the specified size of crimp terminals (M3, width: 5.8 mm max.) to wire the
terminal block. When connecting bare wires, use copper stranded or solid
wires, and use AWG22 (cross-sectional area of 0.326 mm
sectional area of 2.081 mm
(cross-sectional area of 0.081 mm
2
) for other terminals. (Length of exposed wire: 6 to 8 mm)
mm
2
) for the power supply terminals and AWG28
2
) to AWG16 (cross-sectional area of 1.309
(7) Ensure that the rated voltage is attained within 2 seconds after turning ON the
power.
(8) Turn OFF the power first when you need to draw out the Digital Controller. Do
Not touch the terminals or the electronic components, or subject them to
physical shock. When inserting the Digital Controller, do not allow the
electronic components to contact the case.
(9) Do not remove the inner circuit board.
(10) The output may turn OFF when shifting to certain levels. Take this into consid-
eration when performing control.
(11) Allow a warm-up time of at least 30 minutes.
(12) To prevent inductive noise, separate the Digital Controller terminal block wiring
from power lines that carry high voltages or high currents. Also, do not wire
power lines together with or parallel to the Digital Controller wiring. Using
shielded cables and separate conduits or ducts is recommended.
Attach a surge suppressor or noise filter to peripheral devices that generate
noise (in particular, motors, transformers, solenoids, magnetic coils, or other
equipment that has an inductive component). When a noise filter is used at the
power supply, first check the voltage or current, and attach the noise filter as
close as possible to the product. Allow as much space as possible between the
product and devices that generate powerful high frequencies (e.g., high-
frequency welders, high-frequency sewing machines) or surge.
(13) Install a switch or circuit breaker that allows the operator to immediately turn
OFF the power, and label suitably.
(14) The product is designed for indoor use only.
Do not use the product outdoors or in any of the following locations.
· Locations where dust or corrosive gas is present (in particular, sulfur or
ammonia gases)
· Locations where condensation or ice may form
· Locations directly exposed to sunlight
· Locations subject to strong shocks or vibration
· Locations where water or oil may splatter on the Digital Controller
· Locations directly exposed to radiant heat from heating equipment
· Locations subject to sudden or extreme changes of temperature
(15) Do not use paint thinner or similar chemical to clean with. Use standard grade
alcohol.

● Service Life
Precautions for Correct Use
Use the product within the following temperature and humidity ranges:
Temperature:
Humidity: 25% to 85%
When the product is installed inside a control panel, make sure that the temperature
around the product, not the temperature around the control panel, does not exceed
55°C.
The service life of this product and similar electronic devices is determined not only
by the number of switching operations of relays but also by the service life of
internal electronic components. Component service life is affected by the ambient
temperature: the higher the temperature becomes, the shorter the service life
becomes and, the lower the temperature becomes, the longer the service life
becomes. Therefore, the service life can be extended by lowering the temperature
of the product.
Be sure to install the product according to the specified conditions. Otherwise, the
heat generated by the product will cause the internal temperature to rise, shortening the service life. If necessary, cool the product using fans or other means of air
ventilation.
When providing forced cooling, however, be careful not to cool down the terminals
sections alone to avoid measurement errors.
−10 to 55°C (no icing or condensation)
● Noise Countermeasures
To prevent inductive noise, separate the wiring for the product's terminal block and
connector from high-voltage, high-current power lines. Do not run the wiring parallel
to or in the same cable as power lines. The influence of noise can also be reduced
by using separate wiring ducts or shield lines.
Install surge absorbers or noise filters in devices near the product that generate
noise (in particular, devices with an inductance component, such as motors, transformers, solenoids, and magnetic coils).
If a noise filter is used for the power supply, check the voltage and current, and
install the noise filter as close as possible to the product.
Separate the product as far as possible from devices generating strong highfrequency noise (e.g., high-frequency welders and high-frequency sewing
machines) or surges.
● Measurement Accuracy
When extending the thermocouple lead wire, be sure to use a compensating wire
that matches the thermocouple type.
When extending the lead wire of the platinum resistance thermometer, be sure to
use wires that have low resistance, and make sure that the resistances of the three
lead wires are the same.
If the measurement accuracy is low, check whether the input shift is set correctly.

Control whereby the MV is increased as the present
value increases
(When the present value (PV) is higher than the set
point (SP), the MV is increased in proportion to the
difference between the PV and the SP.)
Control whereby the MV is decreased as the present
value increases
(When the present value (PV) is lower than the set
point (SP), the MV is increased in proportion to the
difference between the PV and the SP.)
Description
• When pulse outputs are used, the control period must be set for
each channel.

• Floating control or closed control can also be selected for the
Position-proportional Control Models. Floating control enables
position-proportional control without a feedback potentiometer.
Parameters can be used to assign the type of data that is output from
each output. For the models with more than one input, assignments
can be made for channels 2 and higher as needed depending on the
number of channels.

When control outputs are used, assignments are made automatically
based on the control mode that is set, as explained on the previous
page. No changes are necessary.
When an output is used as a transfer output, assign the data to be
transferred to an unused output.
For outputs with multi-output functionality, specify a pulse voltage
output or a linear current output using the multi-output output type
setting.

Section 1 Overview
For linear current outputs, 0 to 20 mA or 4 to 20 mA can be selected.
Pulse voltage outputs are 12 VDC, 40 mA.
