Compliance with EC Directives
Applicable Directives
• EMC Directive (2014/30/EU)
• Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC)
Concepts
● EMC Directive
OMRON electrical devices are built into other components or equipment. OMRON therefore pursues
compliance with the related EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or
the equipment.*
OMRON cannot confirm compliance in the customer's actual application, however, because the customer may use a variety of components and equipment, and EMC performance depends on the configuration, wiring, and arrangement of the equipment and control panel into which a product applicable to
EC Directives is incorporated. Therefore, whether the products conform to the standards in the system
used by the customer must be checked by the customer.
* Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows: EN
61000-6-2 for EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility) and EN 61000-6-4 for Electromagnetic Interference (10-m regulations applied for EN 61000-6-4 radiated emission).
xxii
● Machinery Directive
The Machinery Directive requires ensuring the required safety for safety components used for machinery safety.
Applicable standards: EN ISO 13849-1:2015 and IEC/EN 62061 SIL CL3
● Conformance to EC Directives
The G9SP-series Controller complies with EC Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which
the G9SP-series Controller is used complies with EC Directives, the following requirements must be
met.
• Make sure that the DC power supply connected to a DC Power Supply Unit or I/O
Unit satisfies the following conditions.
• There is double insulation or reinforced insulation between the primary circuit and secondary circuit.
• An isolated power supply that is limited to a current of 8 A or lower must be
used.
• The output hold time is 20 ms min.
• The power supply is a SELV power supply that satisfies requirements in IEC/
EN 60950-1 and EN 50178.
• G9SP-series products that comply with the EC Directives also comply with the
Generic Emission Standard (EN 61000-6-4) for EMI. The radiated emission characteristics (10-m regulations), however, may depend on the configuration of the control
panel that is used and the relation to and wiring with other connected devices. Even
through the G9SP-series Controller complies with EC Directives, the customer must
confirm that the overall machinery and equipment in which the G9SP-series Controller is used complies with the EC Directives.
EN ISO 13849-1 and IEC/EN 62061 Compliance
EN ISO 13849-1 and IEC/EN 62061 require process management to avoid system interference and to
simplify reading, understanding, testing, and maintaining software. This is required in all phases of the
life cycle of software programming and software design (e.g., basic software design, safety circuit system design, and software upgrades) in safety control systems to be developed using safety controllers.
Therefore, process management is required for design and development of software for facilities and
equipment that use the function blocks provided in the Safety Controller.
The customer must implement measures to ensure compliance with these standards.

Safety Logic Operation
Programming can be performed using function blocks that have been certified
for safety standards. This enables achieving a wide variety of safety applications ranging from a simple total stop to complex applications that use multiple
operating modes.
Safety I/O
The Safety I/O terminals of the G9SP-series Controller include a variety of
self-diagnosis functions to detect faults and wiring mistakes in connected
Safety Devices.
Wide Range of I/O Wiring Error Detection Functions
• For Safety Inputs, external wiring errors, such as faulty connected
devices, wiring mistakes, disconnected wires, short-circuiting, and ground
faults, can be detected.
• Using Safety Outputs in combination with the safety logic EDM function
enables detecting errors such as contact weld faults, wiring mistakes, disconnected wires, short-circuiting, and ground faults, in output devices
such as Safety Relays and Safety Contactors.
Direct Connection to Safety Devices
A direct connection can be made to an OMRON UM Safety Mat, a D40A or
D40Z Non-contact Switch, or an E3ZS/E3FS Single Beam Safety Sensor.
Connecting without use of an intermediate special controller enables reducing
control panel size and decreasing system costs.
Expanded Support for Applications Using Optional Devices
Using optional devices enables building the most appropriate and flexible systems.
Connection to a Standard PLC Using an Option Board
General-purpose communications can be performed with a Standard PLC
using an Option Board. Option Boards are available for the widely used RS232C serial communications and Ethernet communications, thereby reducing
additional system costs.

Overview and Features of the G9SP-series ControllerSection 1-1
Adding Standard I/O Using Expansion I/O Units
Using Standard Expansion I/O Units enables achieving signal transfer with
Standard Control at a low cost.
Support Software for Robust Support from Design to Startup
Efficiency from design to startup can be greatly improved by using the functions of the G9SP Configurator.
Operation Guide and Help for Easier Application of the G9SP Configurator
Creating Program Components Using User-defined Function Blocks
• User-defined function blocks created using the G9SP-series Controller
can be reused as program components.
Desktop Debugging with Offline Simulation and Powerful Search Functions
• Offline simulation of programs in the Program Creation Window enables
increasing programming quality before downloading to the G9SP-series
Controller.
• Programming can be efficiently analyzed using search functions, such as
searching for I/O tags or unconnected function blocks.
Identifying Devices with Errors Using Online Monitoring
• You can detect errors, such as power supply voltage drops, faulty I/O wiring, and Safety Relay welding faults, and then check the cause and countermeasures.
6
Overview and Features of the G9SP-series ControllerSection 1-1
Force-setting/Force-resetting
• Force-setting/resetting lets you turn the I/O tags ON and OFF in the program regardless of whether I/O devices and communications data are ON
or OFF. During system development, programming can be debugged
without I/O devices and remote communications. This also enables efficient checking of output wiring.
Improved Maintenance Efficiency
The G9SP-series Controller is equipped with a variety of functions to minimize
system downtime if an error occurs. This helps improve production efficiency
by preventing unnecessarily stopping the system.
Continued Operation of Error-free Areas
Even if an error occurs, the G9SP-series Controller will immediately identify
the location of the error and stop only the parts affected by the error, while
parts without errors will continue to operate. For example, if a short-circuit
fault occurs in I/O wiring, only the outputs related to the Safety Devices that
are connected there will stop.
Information to Identify Causes of Stopping
You can quickly identify the cause of stopping by using the two-color indicators on the G9SP-series Controller as well as the error log and operation log
in the G9SP Configurator.
Backup and Restore Data Using Optional Memory Cassettes
A Memory Cassette can be used when replacing the G9SP-series Controller
or updating the program. This enables easily replacing and restoring the
G9SP-series Controller without directly using the G9SP Configurator.
Access Management Using Passwords
Passwords in the G9SP-series Controller and G9SP Configurator can be used
to prevent unintended changes to the configuration data at the work site.
Access Management Using Device Password
Configuration data that has been downloaded to the G9SP-series Controller
is protected using a password set in the Controller. Changes to configuration
data using the Memory Cassette can also be prohibited.
7
Overview and Features of the G9SP-series ControllerSection 1-1
Access Management Using Parameter Passwords
Access to project files created by the G9SP Configurator can also be managed using passwords. This prevents unintended changes to project files as
well as disabling access to configuration data uploaded from the G9SP-series
Controller.

Precautions for Correct Use
• The ON and OFF delays can be set only as multiples of the cycle time of
the G9SP-series Controller. If the cycle time changes, e.g., when the program is changed, the ON and OFF delay times will also change.
Example: Delays for a cycle time of 5 ms: ON delay of 10 × 5 ms = 50 ms
and OFF delay of 5 × 5 = 25 ms
Delays after changing cycle time to 6 ms: ON delay of 10 × 6 ms
= 60 ms and OFF delay of 5 × 6 = 30 ms
• The OFF delay time will affect the safety response performance. Add it to
the reaction time. (Refer to 3-2 Reaction Times.)
Self-diagnosis of Safety Input terminals provides notification of the locations
and causes of errors.
The following three methods can be used to check if errors have been
detected.
• Checking with the I/O indicators on the Front of the G9SP-series Controller
The G9SP-series Controller will light or flash the I/O indicators on the front
panel if an error is detected in the Safety Input terminals. This lets you
identify the terminal where the error was detected. Refer to 2-1-1 PartNames and Indicators for information on the indicator patterns.
• Checking with the G9SP Configurator
If the G9SP Configurator is connected online when an error has been de-
tected in the Safety Input terminals, the terminal where the error was detected and the cause of the error can be checked. Refer to 10-1 MonitoringDevices for the procedures and displays for using the G9SP Configurator.
• Checking with Option Board Communications
Option Board communications can be used when an error has been de-
tected in the Safety Input terminals to monitor the error location and error
cause from a Standard PLC. Refer to SECTION 7 Communications with aStandard PLC Using an Option Board for detailed specifications on communications procedures and data for Option Boards.

Reaction TimesSection 3-2
3-2Reaction Times
This section describes how to calculate reaction times (safety response performance) for the G9SP-series Controller.
3-2-1Reaction Time Concepts
Reaction Time
The reaction time is the time required to stop machine operation in a worstcase scenario considering the occurrence of faults and failures in the safety
chain. The safety chain is the logical connections that are required to achieve
a safety function, including the Safety Input device, G9SP-series Controller,
and Safety Output device. The reaction time is used to calculate the safety
distance.
3-2-2Local Input and Local Output Reaction Times
This section describes the local Safety I/O reaction time for the G9SP-series
Controller. When calculating the reaction time of the overall safety chain, calculate separately the reaction times of safety sensor and switches, such as
light curtains, and actuators, such as safety relays.
Safety Sensor/
Switch
Sensor/Switch
reaction time
Elements for Calculating the Reaction Time
The reaction time for local Safety I/O on the G9SP-series Controller depends
on the following conditions. Check the conditions and values before calculating the reaction time.
■ Cycle Time
The cycle time depends on the size and contents of the program.
■ Input OFF Delay Time
If an OFF delay is set for an input, e.g., to prevent chattering, the OFF delay
time must be added to the reaction time.
Precautions for Correct Use
• If the cycle time changes as the result of changes to the program, calculate
the reaction time again.
• If an Off-Delay Timer function block is used in the program or if loop-back
connections are used, they must also be added to the reaction time.

Reaction Time Formula
The formula for calculating reaction time for local Safety I/O on the G9SPseries Controller is given below.
Local Safety I/O reaction time = (Cycle time × 2) − 2 + Input OFF delay time [ms]
!WARNING Serious injury may possibly occur due to loss of required safety functions.
Confirm that the calculated reaction times meet the required specifications for
all safety chains.

• When the power supply has positive and negative terminals, always wire
them correctly.
• Be sure to separate the communications cables and I/O cables from highvoltage/high-current lines.
• Do not bend a cable past its natural bending radius or pull in it with excessive force. Doing so will damage the cable.
• Be careful not to get your fingers caught when attaching terminal blocks to
the G9SP-series Controller.
• Incorrect wiring may lead to loss of safety functions. Wire conductors correctly and verify the operation of the G9SP-series Controller before using
the system in which the Controller is incorporated.
63
WiringSection 4-2
4-2-2Wiring the Power Supply
Wiring the Power Supply
The G9SP-series Controller provides power terminals V1/G1 for the internal
and input circuits and power terminals V2/G2 for the output circuits.
Use a power supply with a voltage fluctuation range of 20.4 to 26.4 VDC.
• If the voltage may drop due to the starting current or inrush current for
output devices, use different power sources for the two power supplies.
• When using more than one G9SP-series Controller, use separate power
supply circuits for each G9SP-series Controller to prevent the malfunction
of breakers and voltage drops from inrush current.
