5Application Precautions
WARNING
!
It is extremely important that a CS1 Bus Interface Board be used for the specified
purpose and under the specified conditions, especially in applications that can
directly or indirectly affect human life. You must consult with your OMRON
representative before applying a CS1 Bus Interface Board System to the
above-mentioned applications.
3 Safety Precautions
WARNING
!
WARNING
!
Do not attempt to take a CS1 Bus Interface Board apart while the power is being
supplied. Doing so may result in electric shock.
Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer to ensure safety in the event
of incorrect, missing, or abnormal signals caused by broken signal lines,
momentary power interruptions, or other causes.
4 Operating Environment Precautions
Caution Do not operate the control system in the following locations:
!
• Locations subject to direct sunlight.
• Locations subject to temperatures or humidity outside the range specified in
the specifications.
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature.
• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases.
xii
• Locations subject to dust (especially iron dust) or salts.
• Locations subject to exposure to water, oil, or chemicals.
• Locations subject to shock or vibration.
Caution Install the CS1 Bus Interface Boards properly as specified in the operation
!
manuals. Improper installation of the CS1 Bus Interface Boards may result in
malfunction.
Caution Take appropriate and sufficient countermeasures when installing systems in the
!
following locations:
• Locations subject to static electricity or other forms of noise.
• Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields.
• Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity.
• Locations close to power supplies.
Caution The operating environment of the CS1 Bus Interface Board System will have a
!
large effect on the longevity and reliability of the system. Improper operating environments can lead to malfunction, failure, and other unforeseeable problems
with the CS1 Bus Interface Board System. Be sure that the operating environment is within the specified conditions at installation and remains within the specified conditions during the life of the system.
5Application Precautions
5 Application Precautions
Observe the following precautions when using the CS1 Bus Interface Board
System.
• Always use the power supply voltages specified in the operation manuals. An
incorrect voltage may result in malfunction or burning.
• Take appropriate measures to ensure that the specified power with the rated
voltage and frequency is supplied. Be particularly careful in places where the
power supply is unstable. An incorrect power supply may result in malfunction.
• Install external breakers and take other safety measures against short-circuiting in external wiring. Insufficient safety measures against short-circuiting may
result in burning.
• Always turn OFF the power supply to the CS1 Bus Interface Board and the
PLC before attempting any of the following. Not turning OFF the power supply
may result in malfunction or electric shock.
• Mounting or dismounting I/O Units or any other Units.
• Assembling the Units.
• Setting DIP switches or rotary switches.
• Connecting cables or wiring the system.
• Connecting or disconnecting the connectors.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify any Units.
• The mounting screws of the CS1 Bus Interface Board must be tightened to the
torque specified in the manuals for the personal computer. Incorrect tightening
torque may result in malfunction.
• Double-check all wiring and switch settings before turning ON the power supply. Incorrect wiring may result in burning.
• Be sure that the connectors, expansion cables, and other items with locking
devices are properly locked into place. Improper locking may result in malfunction.
xiii
• Check the user program for proper execution before actually executing it. Not
checking the program may result in unexpected operation.
• Do not pull on cables or bend them past their natural bending radius. Doing so
may damage the cables and interfere with proper operation.
• Do not place any objects on the cables.
• The PC will not start operation even after the power supply is turned ON until
the CS1 Bus Interface Board completes initialization. The time required for initialization depends on the computer in which the Board is installed, You must
design the system to allow for this delay.
• Also, if the power supply to the Open Network Controller is interrupted during
operation, the PC will detect an I/O bus error. You must design the system to
allow for this possibility.

1-1 Functions
1-1-1 Functions and Connections with CS1
The ITBC-CST01 CS1 Bus Interface Board is a PCI board that is installed in a
personal computer to connect the computer to a CS1-series PC via the I/O bus.
As shown below, the Board is connected to either the CPU Rack or CS1 Expansion Rack. The personal computer functions as a CS1 CPU Bus Unit to enable
I/O communications with the PC.

2. The computer is treated as one CS1 Expansion Rack, and it must be
counted as one CS1 Expansion Rack when calculating the maximum number of connectable CS1 Expansion Racks.
3. The maximum available cable length including the length of the I/O Connecting Cable is 12 m.
4. The computer cannot be connected to a C200H Rack.
1-1-2 Precautions for System Design
• The PC will not start operation even after the power supply is turned ON until
the CS1 Bus Interface Board completes initialization. The time required for initialization depends on the computer in which the Board is installed, You must
design the system to allow for this delay.
