Precautions for Safe Use

NA-series Programmable Terminal Startup Guide (V120)

Precautions for Safe Use

• When unpacking the NA Unit, check carefully for any external scratches or other damages. Also,
shake the NA Unit gently and check for any abnormal sound.

• The NA Unit must be installed in a control panel.

• The mounting panel must be between 1.6 and 6.0 mm

thick. Tighten the Mounting Brackets evenly to
a torque of between 0.5 and 0.6 N·m to maintain water and dust resistance. If the tightening torque
exceeds the specified value, or the tightening is not even, deformation of the front panel may occur.
What is more, make sure the panel is not dirty or warped and that it is strong enough to hold the NA
Unit.

• Do not let metal particles enter the NA

Unit when preparing the panel.

• Turn OFF the power supply before connecting or disconnecting cables.

• Periodically check the installation conditions in applications

where the NA Unit is subject to contact

with oil or water.

• Be certain to use the cables with lock mechanism such as serial cable or the Ethernet cable after
c

onfirming if it is securely locked.

• Do not touch the packaging part of the circuit boar

d with your bare hands. Discharge any static elec-

tricity from your body before handling the board.

• Do not use volatile solvents such as benzene and thinners or chemical cloths.

• Water and oil resistance will be lost if

the front sheet is torn or is peeling off. Do not use the NA Unit,

if the front sheet is torn or is peeling off.

• As the rubber packing will deteriorate, shrink, or harden depending on the operating environment,
per

iodical inspection is necessary.

• Confirm the safety of the system before turning

ON or OFF the power supply, or pressing the reset

switch.

• The whole system may stop depending on how the powe

r supply is turned ON or OFF. Turn ON/OFF

the power supply according to the specified procedure.

• Operate DIP switch according to the following

way.

The DIP switch may break if it is leve

red with a tool against the case as shown in the figure.

• Once the DIP switch settings are changed, reset by pres

sing the reset switch, or restart the power

supply.

• Initialize the project, after confirming that existin

g project is backed up at the Sysmac Studio.

• When changing the password, do not reset or turn OFF the power supply until the writing is com­pleted. A failure to store the password may

cause the project to fail to function.

• While uploading or downloading a project or a system program, do not perform the operations as fol­lows. Such operations may corrupt the project or the system program:

• Turning OFF the power supply of the NA Unit

• Resetting the NA Unit.

• Removing the USB devices or SD card.

• Disconnecting the cable between a su

pport tool and the NA Unit.

• Do not connect an AC power supply to the DC power terminals.

• Do not perform a dielectric strength test.

Precautions for Safe Use

14

NA-series Programmable Terminal Startup Guide (V120)

• Use a DC power with a slight voltage fluctuation and that will provide a stable output even if the input
is momentarily interrupted for 10 ms. Also use the one with reinforced insulation or double insulation.

Rated Power Supply Voltage: 24VDC (Allowable range 19.2 to 28.8VDC)

• Use a power cable with AWG#12 to #22 thick (0.35mm2 to 3.31mm2). Peel the coating 7mm length
a

nd tighten the terminal screw with the torque in the range of 0.5 to 0.6 N·m. Also confirm if the termi-

nal screw is tighten appropriately.

• To prevent malfunctions caused

by noise, ground the NA Unit correctly.

• Do not use any battery if strong impact is applied to it (

e.g. by dropping on the floor) because such a

battery may cause a leakage.

• Confirm the type of the battery to install the battery properly.

• Apply power for at least five minutes before changing the battery. Mount a new battery within five
m

inutes after turning OFF the power supply. If power is not supplied for at least five minutes, the

clock data may be lost. Check the clock data after changing the battery.

• Do not dismantle a battery nor let it short-circuit.

• Do not apply an impact with the lithium battery, charge it, d

ispose it into a fire, or heat it. Doing either

of them may cause an ignition or a bursting.

• Dispose of the NA Units and batteries accord

ing to local ordinances as they apply.

• The following precaution must be displayed on all products containing lithium primary batteries with a
p

erchlorate content of 6ppb or higher when exporting them to or shipping them through California,

USA.

Perchlorate Material - special handling may apply.

See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate

The NA-Series contains a lithium primary battery with a perchlorate content of 6ppb or higher. When
e

xporting a product containing the NA-Series to or shipping such a product through California, USA,

label all packing and shipping containers appropriately.

• Do not connect the USB devices in the environment subject to the strong vibration.

• Do not connect USB devices which are not allo

wed to connect to NA Unit.

• Start actual system application only after checking

normal operation of the system including storage

devices such as USB memory and SD card.

• When connecting peripheral devices which do not m

eet the performance level of the NA Unit for
noise and static electricity, ensure sufficient countermeasures against noise and static electricity dur­ing installation of the peripheral dev

ices to the NA Unit.

• Do not carry out the following operations w

hen accessing USB devices or SD card:

• Turning OFF the power supply of the NA Unit

• Press the Reset switch of the NA Unit

• Pull out the USB devices or SD card

• When using the No. 6 pin of the serial port connector for a voltage of DC+5V, make sure the supply
eq

uipment's current capacity is below 250mA before using it. The DC+5V voltage output of the NA

Unit is +5V±5%, and the maximum current is 250mA.

• To ensure the system's safety, make sure to incorporate a program that call periodically signals dur­ing the operation at connected device

side and can confirm the normal functionality of the NA Unit

before running the system.

• Start actual system application only after sufficiently checking

project, subroutine and the operation of

the program at the connected device side.

• To use numeric input functions safely, always make maximum and minimum limit settings.

• Do not press the touch panel with a force greater than 30 N.

• Do not use hard or pointed objects to operate or scrub the screen, otherwise the surface of the
scre

en may be damaged.

15

Precautions for Safe Use

NA-series Programmable Terminal Startup Guide (V120)

• The deterioration over time may cause the touch points to move on the touch panel. Calibrate the
touch panel periodically.

• A touch position detection error of approximately 2

0 pixels may occur due to the precision of the
touch panel. Always take this into account when positioning objects on the panel so adjoining objects
will not be activated by mistake.

• Confirm the safety of the system before

pressing the touch panel.

• Do not accidentally press the touch panel when the backlight is not lit or when the display does not
app

ear or is too dark to identify visually.

• You can change the brightness by changing the set

ting such as in the system menu or by download­ing project.
If the brightness is set to very dar

k, it causes flickering or unreadable screen. Additionally, the bright­ness can be restored by transferring the project again after setting the property of the brightness
app

ropriately.

In a case of the applications where end users can co

ntrol the brightness, create the applications so
as keeping on operations by such as assigning the function which restores the brightness to one of
function keys, if necessary.

• Signals from the touch panel may not be entered if the

touch panel is pressed consecutively at high
speed. Make sure to go on the next operation after confirming that the NA Unit has detected the input
of the touch panel.

• The function keys have the

restrictions as follows:

• Using both anti-reflection sheet and protective cover interrupts the normal function key operation.
Do

not use them together.

• When you use gloves or others, th

e function keys may not work correctly depending on the mate-

rial and thickness of the gloves. T

ake actual conditions of the gloves usage into considerations

prior to the system startup to perform the confirmation.

• The function keys do not work when covered with

water. Remove the water completely before

use.

Regulations and Standards

NA-series Programmable Terminal Startup Guide (V120)

Regulations and Standards

• EMC Directive

z EMC Directive

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.*

Whether the products conform to the standards in th

e 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.

* Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Comp

atibility) standards are as follows:

EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN

61131-2:2007

EMI (Electromagnetic Interference): EN 61131-2:2007

z Conformance to EC Directives

The NA-series PTs comply with EC Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which the
NA-series PT is used complies with EC Directives, the NA-series PT must be installed as follows:

• The NA Unit must be installed within a control panel.

• You must use reinforced insulation or double insu

lation for the DC power supplies connected to

the NA Unit.

• NA-series PTs that comply with EC Directives a

lso conform to the Common Emission Standard
(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 machin

e or equipment complies with EC Directives.

• This is a Class A product (for industrial environm

ents). In a residential environment, it may cause

radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take appropriate measures.

2-1 Pages

Page is screen data displayed on HMI. Placing objects on the Page allows necessary functions to be
implemented.

The Page and the object have three Attributes as follows.

The NA-series Programmable Terminal adopts event-dr

iven application model that describes the pro-

cessions corresponding to events occurred. Adopting the model allows to

create more flexible applica-

tions than conventional HMI does.

Once the subroutine with high versatility

is registered to global subroutine, the subroutine can be called

from anywhere in the project and it improves reusability and maintainability.

Also adoption of Visual Basic allows to reuse abundan

t samples that are released on the Internet to

improve the development productivity.

Attributes of Page and object Descriptions

Properties It sets the properties of appearances such as positio

n, size, and color.
Animations It sets the properties of motions such as blink and movement.
Events and Actions It sets an Event and Action corresponding to the Event.

2-2 Variables

2-2 Variables

A variable is like a container to store the I/O data exchanged with external devices and the temporal
data at internal processing. In the HMI, all the operations such as I/O data exchanging with external
devices or data arithmetic processing are performed through the variable. Therefore, it is possible to
create the HMI application that does not depend on memory addresses of hardware.

Each object on a Page accesses to the variables in glob

al variable table of HMI as follows. There are a
variable (external variable) map onto global variable of the Controller and a variable (internal variable)
not to map onto it.

A subroutine variable is readable and writable only within the subroutine. On the other hand, a global
va

riable is readable and writable from everywhere in the project. The application described in this guide

defines the variable accessing to pushbutton switch and lamp as global variable.

Data type is property that defines the data format an

d the range of value expressed with a variable.

When the variable is defined, the data type should always be specified.

In the NA-series Programmable Terminal, the data type th

at is the same with the one of Visual Basic is

available. For details, refer to the NA-series Programmable Terminal Software User’s Manual (V118).

4-1 Operation Flowchart

The basic operation flowchart from creating HMI application to debugging is shown.

As the NA-series Programmable Terminal is available to cr

eate HMI application with variables, users do
not have to be conscious of addressable memory space. This allows the design to be developed inde­pendently and parallel, without being conscious of mem

ory assignment on the Controller.

For understanding advantages of the creating HMI application

with the variables, this guide describes

the operation procedures when creating HMI application is performed without connecting to the Unit.

STEP 1. Creating a new project. (P. 4 - 3 )

Create a project file and insert an HMI.

STEP 2. Setting a software and creating an HMI application. (P. 4 - 6 )

STEP2-1 Software setting (variable mapping and HMI setting) (P. 4 -8 )
STEP2-2 Creating HMI application (variable re

gistration and creating Page)

STEP 3. Debugging the HMI application. (P. 4-18)

The project data is transmitted to the HMI to check the operation (online debugging). When the Unit is not used,
simulation function of the Sysmac Studio is used to check the operation (offline debugging).

4-8 Debugging the HMI Applications

The NA-series Programmable Terminal is implemented with the function that the operations can be ver­ified on the simulator of the Sysmac Studio. The fu

nction is referred as Offline Debugging. When
debugging should be performed without a Unit, the operations are verified through the Offline Debug­ging. The Offline Debugging includes a method that executes HMI

project and verifies only single oper-

ation and the other method that combines the Controller's simulator.

Additional Information

When the operation is checked only with HMI simulator, the operation of objects can be
checked. However, the debugging of the function that operates according to the value of the
Controller is not available. If you need to perform debugging such a function, connect with the
simulator of the Controller.

Execute a build as preparations for Online Debugging.

Select Build HMI – Project in Menu.

Result of the build will be displayed on the

build window. If you find an error, modify the pro-

gram.
