6Conformance to EC Directives
6-1Applicable Directives
•EMC Directives
• Low Voltage Directive
6-2Concepts
EMC Directives
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related
EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or the
overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to
EMC standards (see the following note). Whether the products conform to the
standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by
the customer.
EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of
the equipment or control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed.
The customer must, therefore, perform the final check to confirm that devices
and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.
NoteApplicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:
EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN 61131-2 and EN 61000-6-2
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference):EN 61131-2 and EN 61000-6-4
Low Voltage Directive
Always ensure that devices operating at voltages of 50 to 1,000 V AC and 75
to 1,500 V DC meet the required safety standards for the PLC (EN61131-2).
6-3Conformance to EC Directives
The OMRON products described in this manual comply with the related EMC
Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which the products are
used complies with EC Directives, the products must be installed as follows:
1,2,3...1. The products must be installed within a control panel.
2. A DC power supply with reinforced insulation or double insulation that can
maintain a stable output even if the input is interrupted for 10 ms must be
used for communications power, internal power, and I/O power. The
OMRON S82J-series Power Supply is recommended. (See note.)
3. Products complying with EC Directives also conform to the Emission Standards (EN 61131-2 and EN 61000-6-4). Radiated emission characteristics
(10-m regulations) may vary depending on the configuration of the control
panel used, other devices connected to the control panel, wiring, and other
conditions. You must therefore confirm that the overall machine or equipment complies with EC Directives.
(Radiated emission: 10-m regulations)

Conformance to EC Directives6
4. Conformance with the EC Directives was confirmed with a system configuration using I/O wiring lengths of less than 30 m.
Note Conformance with the EMC Directive was confirmed when using
the recommended power supply.

Features and Slave Units
This section describes the features and models of EtherNet/IP Slave Units
EtherNet/IP is an industrial multi-vendor network that uses Ethernet components. The EtherNet/IP specifications are open standards managed by the
ODVA (Open DeviceNet Vendor Association), just like DeviceNet.
EtherNet/IP is not just a network between controllers; it is also used as a field
network. The EtherNet/IP Slave Unit have the following features.
High-speed, High-capacity Data Exchange through Tag Data Links
The EtherNet/IP protocol supports implicit communications, which allows
cyclic communications (called tag data links in this manual) with EtherNet/IP
devices.
The default settings for remote I/O communications with the PLC are the
same as for previous Slaves, whereby real I/O is allocated for each node
address. One difference with previous Slaves is that an area for Smart Slave
status information can be allocated to the Smart Slaves within the IN Area of
the Master. This is in addition to real I/O. (Settings are performed using the
Network Configurator or explicit messages.)
Tag Data Link (Cyclic Communications) Cycle Time
Tag data links (cyclic communications) can operate at the cyclic period specified for each application, regardless of the number of nodes. Data is
exchanged over the network at the refresh cycle set for each connection, so
the communications refresh cycle will not increase even if the number of
nodes is increased, i.e., the synchronicity of the connection’s data is preserved.
Since the refresh cycle can be set for each connection, each application can
communicate at its ideal refresh cycle. For example, a processes interlocks
can be transferred at high speed while the production commands and the status monitor information are transferred at low speed.
Note The communications load to the nodes must be within the Units’ al-
lowed communications bandwidth.
NoteThe CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) is a shared industrial protocol for the
OSI application layer. The CIP is used in networks such as EtherNet/IP, ControlNet, and DeviceNet. Data can be routed easily between networks that are
based on the CIP, so a transparent network can be easily configured from the
field device level to the host level.
The CIP has the following advantages.
• Destination nodes are specified by a relative path, without fixed routing
tables.
• The CIP uses the producer/consumer model. Nodes in the network are
arranged on the same level and it is possible to communicate with
required devices whenever it is necessary.
The consumer node will receive data sent from a producer node when the
connection ID in the packet indicates that the node requires the data.
Since the producer can send the same data with the same characteristics
in a multicast (either multicast or unicast can be selected), the time
required for the transfer is fixed and not dependent on the number of consumer nodes.

is connected and provide notification in the Status Area. The Configurator or
explicit messages can be used to read the information.
The input filter is used to read the input value several times during the set
interval and remove irregular data caused by noise and switch chattering.
This function can also be used to create ON/OFF delays.
These settings are made by using the Network Configurator.
Detection results can be read by using explicit messages if the sensor shortcircuit/disconnected and external load short-circuit/disconnected detection
functions are used. The error location can be rapidly specified and restored.
Features of Screw-less Clamp Terminals
Labor-saving Clamp
Terminal Block
For I/O wiring, a screw-less clamp terminal block is provided. Wiring is
reduced by the use of ferrules that can be easily inserted and then later
removed by simply pressing a release button.
Features of Environment-resistive Terminals
Dust-proof and
Waterproof Construction
(IP67) for High Resistance

No Power Supply Wiring
for Input Devices
The environment-resistive construction enables usage in locations subject to
oil and water splashes (IP67). An environment-resistive box is not required,
enabling greater downsizing and reducing wiring labor.
Power for communications, internal circuits, and input devices is shared, making wiring necessary only for the communications power supply.
1-2EtherNet/IP Slaves
The EtherNet/IP Slaves are classified into the following categories.
• General-purpose Slaves
Slaves with digital I/O functions using standard connectors for communications cables.
• Environment-resistive Slaves

The screw-less clamp terminal has a structure designed for clamping to a terminal block. It is a reduced-wiring, labor-saving Slave that can make wiring
easy by simply inserting ferrules (with sleeves). The Unit and terminal block
can be detached, making it possible to replace the Unit in the event of a failure
without removing the wiring.
A detection function is also provided to help quickly discover short-circuits and
disconnections for sensors or other devices.
4-2-1Wiring to a Screw-less Clamp Terminal Block
Screw-less clamp terminals provide clamp-type terminal blocks that allow wiring without screws. When connecting a sensor or an external device, a ferrule
must be attached to the cable for the sensor or device. The following ferrules
are applicable.

This section describes the functions common to all EtherNet/IP Slave Units
and the procedures for using these functions.
6-1-1Automatic Baud Rate Detection
DescriptionThe EtherNet/IP Slave Units are automatically set to the same baud rate as
the hub. It is not necessary to set the baud rate separately for any Slave Unit.
The baud rate is set when communications is established with the hub after
the power is turned ON. The baud rate setting is stored in memory until the
power is turned ON again or until the Master Unit baud rate setting is
changed.
6-1-2Hold/Clear Outputs
DescriptionOutput Units can be set to hold or clear outputs when an error occurs.
Procedure Using
Network Configurator
1,2,3...1. Turn ON the power to the EtherNet/IP Slave Unit.
2. Double-click the icon of the Slave Unit to set in the Network Edit Device Parameters Window to open the Configuration Window. (Alternatively, rightclick the icon and select Parameters - Edit from the pop-up menu.)
3. The fault action (holding or clearing an output for a communications error)
will be displayed for each output in the Fault Action Setting Group. SelectHold Last State or Clear Data for the terminals and then click the OK But-
ton.
ClearClears all output data from the Master Unit to 0 when a communica-
tions error occurs.
HoldHolds all output data from the Master Unit at its current status when a
communications error occurs.

6-1-4Input Filter (Input Units Only)
DescriptionAn input value is read more than once during a set time interval. The input
value can be set to be enabled only when all the read values are the same.
This function operates for all input points in one Slave Unit.
The following settings are possible:
No delay (no filter), or 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, or 256 ms.
OFF-ON DelayWhen the input data turns ON, the input data is read 4 times at a set time (1/4
of the time setting). The internal input data turns ON only when all four values
are ON. The ON timing is delayed by the value of the input time constant.

when all values are OFF. The OFF timing is delayed by the value of the OFF
response time.
This function can also be used to implement an OFF delay.
To enable reading pulses shorter than the communications cycle time, set the
OFF response time to a value longer than the communications cycle time.

Functions Common to All Slave UnitsSection 6-1
6-1-5Power Short-circuit Detection (Input)
DescriptionThis function monitors the sensor power supply current. If the current is
50 mA or higher per input contact, a power short-circuit is detected.
The Slave Unit I/O indicator can be used to check whether a power short-circuit has been detected. When a power short-circuit is detected, a flag in a status area in the Slave Unit turns ON to notify the Master Unit. The notification
details can be read using explicit messages. When the cause of the short-circuit is removed, the Slave Unit is automatically reset, and the power output to
the connector that had the short-circuit is turned ON again.
Setting Using the

6-1-6Load Short-circuit Detection (Output)
DescriptionThis function monitors the load current for the output section and detects an
load short-circuit if the current per contact (or common) exceeds a specific
value. When a load short-circuit is detected, all Unit outputs are turned OFF to
prevent damage to the Unit's output circuits.
The I/O power for the Unit turns OFF if a short-circuit is detected for even just
one of the contacts being used.
When a load short-circuit is detected, a flag in a status area in the Slave Unit
turns ON to notify the Master Unit. The notification details can be read using
explicit messages.
When the cause of the short-circuit is removed, the Slave Unit is automatically
reset, and the power output to the connector for which the short-circuit was
detected is turned ON again.

ProblemCause and possible corrections
MS indicator is lit red. • The Slave Unit is malfunctioning. Replace the Slave Unit.
MS indicator is flashing
red.
The NS indicator lights
red without flashing
green.
• The rotary switch or other setting is illegal. Check the switch settings then restart the Slave
Unit.
• There is an error in the Slave Unit's EEPROM memory data. To restore the default setting,
set the rotary switches to FF hex, cycle the power supply, and then set the rotary switches to
00 hex. Replace the Slave Unit if the MS indicator keeps flashing red even after the data has
been returned to the default settings.
Check the following item and then restart the Slave Unit.
• Check the node addresses of all nodes and change the settings as required so that each
node has a unique node address.

This section describes the routine cleaning and inspection recommended as
regular maintenance, as well as the Unit replacement procedure required if an
EtherNet/IP Unit needs to be replaced.
7-3-1Cleaning
Clean the EtherNet/IP Unit regularly as described below in order to keep the
network in its optimal operating condition.
• Wipe the Unit daily with a dry, soft cloth.
• When a spot can’t be removed with a dry cloth, dampen the cloth with a
neutral cleanser (2% solution), wring out the cloth, and wipe the Unit.
• A smudge may remain on the Unit from gum, vinyl, or tape that was left on
for a long time. Remove the smudge when cleaning.
!Caution Never use volatile solvents such as paint thinner, benzene, or chemical wipes.
These substances could damage the surface of the Unit.
7-3-2Inspection
Be sure to inspect the system periodically to keep it in its optimal operating
condition. In general, inspect the system once every 6 to 12 months, but
inspect more frequently if the system is used with high temperature or humidity or under dirty/dusty conditions.
