2 General Precautions

The user must operate the product according to the performance specifications described in the operation manuals.

Before using the product under conditions which are not described in the manual or applying the product to nuclear control systems, railroad systems, aviation systems, vehicles, combustion systems, medical equipment, amusement machines, safety equipment, and other systems, machines, and equipment that may have a serious influence on lives and property if used improperly, consult your OMRON representative.

Make sure that the ratings and performance characteristics of the product are sufficient for the systems, machines, and equipment, and be sure to provide the systems, machines, and equipment with double safety mechanisms.

This manual provides information for programming and operating the Unit. Be sure to read this manual before attempting to use the Unit and keep this manual close at hand for reference during operation.

!WARNING It is extremely important that a Position Control Units and related devices 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 Position Control Units and related devices to the above-mentioned applications.

3 Safety Precautions

!WARNING Do not attempt to take any Unit apart while the power is being supplied. Doing so may result in electric shock.

!WARNING Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify any Units. Any attempt to do so may result in malfunction, fire, or electric shock.

!WARNING Never touch any of the terminals while power is being supplied. Doing so may result in serious electric shock.

!WARNING Provide safety measures in external circuits (i.e., not in the Programmable Controller or Position Control Unit) to ensure safety in the system if an abnormality occurs due to malfunction of the PLC, malfunction of the PCU (Position Control Unit), or external factors affecting the operation of the PLC or PCU. Not providing sufficient safety measures may result in serious accidents.

xxiv

Operating Environment Precautions

4

Emergency stop circuits, interlock circuits, limit circuits, and similar safety measures must be provided in external control circuits.

The PLC will turn OFF all outputs when its self-diagnosis function detects any error or when a severe failure alarm (FALS) instruction is executed. As a countermeasure for such errors, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.

The PLC or PCU outputs may remain ON or OFF due to deposits on or burning of the output relays, or destruction of the output transistors. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.

When the 24-V DC output (service power supply to the PLC) is overloaded or short-circuited, the voltage may drop and result in the outputs being turned OFF. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.

External safety measures must also be taken to ensure safety in the event of unexpected operation when connecting or disconnecting the PCU’s connectors.

!Caution Execute online editing only after confirming that no adverse effects will be caused by extending the cycle time. Otherwise, the input signals may not be readable.

!Caution The operating environment of the PLC System can 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 PLC System. Make sure that the operating environment is within the specified conditions at installation and remains within the specified conditions during the life of the system.

5 Application Precautions

Observe the following precautions when using the PLC System.

!WARNING Always heed these precautions. Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to serious or possibly fatal injury.

Always connect to a ground of 100 Ω or less when installing the Units. Not connecting to a ground of 100 Ω or less may result in electric shock.

Always turn OFF the power supply to the PLC before attempting any of the following. Not turning OFF the power supply may result in malfunction or electric shock.

Mounting or dismounting Power Supply Units, I/O Units, CPU Units, Inner Boards, or any other Units.

Assembling the Units.

Setting DIP switches or rotary switches.

Connecting cables or wiring the system.

Connecting or disconnecting the connectors.

!Caution Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to faulty operation of the PLC, the PCU, or the system, or could damage the PLC or PCU. Always heed these precautions.

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. Not doing so may cause malfunction resulting in serious injury.

Interlock circuits, limit circuits, and similar safety measures in external circuits (i.e., not in the Programmable Controller) must be provided by the customer.

Install external breakers and take other safety measures against short-cir- cuiting in external wiring. Insufficient safety measures against short-cir- cuiting may result in burning.

For CS-series PLCs, always tighten the mounting screw at the bottom of the PCU to a torque of 0.4 N m.

For CJ-series PLCs, lock the sliders securely until they click into place when connecting the Power Supply Unit, CPU Unit, I/O Units, Special I/O Units, or CPU Bus Units. Functions may not work correctly if the sliders are not locked properly.

Always attach the End Cover provided with the CPU Unit to the Unit on the right end of the PLC. The CJ-series PLC will not operate properly if the End Cover is not attached.

Conformance to EC Directives

6 Conformance to EC Directives

6-1 Applicable Directives

• EMC Directives

6-2 Concepts

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.

Note Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:

EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN61000-6-2

EMI (Electromagnetic Interference): EN61000-6-4

(Radiated emission: 10-m regulations)

6-3 Conformance to EC Directives

The PCUs comply with EC Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which a PCU is used complies with EC Directives, the PCU must be installed as follows:

1,2,3... 1. The PCU is defined as a in-panel device and must be installed within a control panel.

2.Reinforced insulation or double insulation must be used for the DC power supplies used for I/O.

3.PCUs complying with EC directives also meet the common emission standard (EN61000-6-4). The measures required to ensure that the standard is met will vary with the overall configuration of the control panel, the other devices connected to the control panel, wiring, and other conditions. The customer must therefore confirm that EC directives are met for the overall machine or device, particularly for the radiated emission requirement (10 m).

6-4 Installation within Control Panels

Unnecessary clearance in cable inlet or outlet ports, operation panel mounting holes, or in the control panel door may cause electromagnetic wave leakage or interference. In this case, the product may fail to meet EC Directives. In order to prevent such interference, fill clearances in the control panel with conductive packing. (In places where conductive packing comes in contact with the control panel, ensure electrical conductivity by removing the paint coating or masking these parts when painting.)

Transfer Data between Host PLC and Servo Drive

The Position Control Unit is a CS/CJ-series CPU Bus Unit. The Position Control Unit (PCU) receives commands from the CPU Unit's internal Auxiliary Area and outputs positioning commands to MECHATROLINK-II Servo Drives.

MECHATROLINK is a registered trademark of MECHATROLINK Members Association.

A MECHATROLINK-II high-speed (10 Mbps) communications interface is used to control Servo Drives for up to 16 axes with a single CS/CJ-series Unit. Shielded twisted-pair cables in daisy-chain formation make wiring simple and enable multi-axis systems that require less wiring and are smaller in size.

Optimal motor performance can be achieved by transmitting data using communications between the Programmable Controller (PLC) and Servo Drives, without having to set an upper limit for the designated speed. High-speed and high-precision position control using high-resolution motors are possible.

Positioning can be performed simply by directly setting the target position and target speed from the CPU Unit. Positioning to either absolute or relative positions is also possible. Interrupt feeding is also supported. With interrupt feeding, positioning is continued for a specified amount after an interrupt input signal is received, and then the axis is stopped.

The Servo Drive's speed and torque can be controlled by directly specifying the target speed and torque from the CPU Unit.

The PCU is compatible with Servomotors that have absolute encoders. Using such Servomotors eliminates the need to repeatedly perform origin searches.

The Servo Drive's parameters and monitors can be set from the CPU Unit. All the data for the multi-axis system can be centrally controlled from the host PLC. This removes the difficulty in starting up devices or setting data when replacing a Unit.
