Precautions for Safe Use4
WARNING
!
• Always ensure that personnel in charge properly perform installation, inspection,
and maintenance for the PT. “Personnel in charge” refers to individuals qualified and
responsible for ensuring safety during machine design, installation, operation, maintenance, and disposal.
• Ensure that installation and post-installation checks are performed by personnel in
charge who possess a thorough understanding of the machinery to be installed.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the PT. Doing so may impair the
safety functions.
• Always connect the stop/emergency stop switch and enabling switch to safety circuits. Serious accidents may occur if connection is made to a PLC and there is a
malfunction. When using the function switches or switches on the touch panel, do
not create switches that may cause injury or damage property. Install a monitoring
circuit or other device in output signals that may result in serious accidents. Construct the system so that switching of important operations is performed in devices
outside the PT.
• For devices and components connected to the PT that affect safety, use appropriate
products meeting the required safety level and safety category. System safety and
the appropriate safety category must be evaluated for the entire system. Consult a
certified third-party organization to determine the appropriate safety category.
• It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that system safety adheres to relevant standards.
• Connect the emergency stop switch, and enabling switch on the PT so that they
function according to stop category 0 or 1 described in IEC/EN 60204-1.
• Do not operate the PT on the floor or on a tabletop.
• There are two types of switches on the PT, a red one for use as an emergency stop
switch, and a gray one for use as a stop switch. Use each of these for its intended
purpose. When using a PT with a red emergency stop switch, attach the cable from
the system securely so it cannot be easily disconnected. When using a PT with a
gray stop switch in an application where the PT is detached from the system, make
sure that the emergency stop switch and the stop switch can be clearly distinguished.
4Precautions for Safe Use
• When unpacking the PT and peripheral devices, check that they are not
damaged. Lightly shake the products to confirm that no abnormal sound
is made.
• Use a power supply with the following specifications for the PT, and for
supplying power to the emergency stop switch, enabling switch, function
switches, and station detection.
• For compliance with the EC Directives (Low Voltage Directive), use a
power supply with reinforced insulation. Reinforced insulation refers to
a single insulation method that is capable of providing the same level
of protection against electric shock as double insulation.
• Do not connect the power supply terminals to an AC power source.
• Do not perform a dielectric strength test.
• Insert a 3-A fuse immediately after the secondary output from the power supply.
• Use a DC power supply with minimal voltage fluctuation.
Rated power supply voltage: 24 VDC (Allowable range: 20.4 to
27.6 VDC), Capacity: 10 W min.
xix
Precautions for Safe Use4
• Always use a Class 2 power supply for compliance with UL standards.
A Class 2 power supply refers to one in which the current and voltage
levels of the product’s secondary output are both limited (100 VA
max.), and which has undergone and passed the necessary tests for
UL certification.
• Properly ground the PT to prevent malfunction due to noise.
• Never touch the electronic components or patterns on product boards
with your bare hands. Touch grounded metal to discharge any static electricity before handling the PT.
• When connecting the cable to the PT, make sure to secure the cable and
the PT. Do not pull on the cable with a force greater than 60 N.
• Thoroughly check the wiring before supplying power.
• Turn OFF the power supply to the PT before connecting or disconnecting
the cable.
• Be sure to tighten the connector screws after connecting the cable.
• The entire system may fail to operate depending on how the power supply
is turned ON or OFF. Follow specified procedures for turning the power
supply ON and OFF.
• Thoroughly confirm operation of screen data, macros, and host programming before starting actual use.
• Do not perform the following operations while the Memory Card is being
accessed.
Turning OFF the power supply to the PT
Removing the Memory Card
Always follow specified procedures for removing the Memory Card.
• To ensure system safety, incorporate programming at the host to periodically accesses a RUN signal to confirm that the PT is operating properly.
• Press touch switches with a force of 30 N max.
• Confirm system safety before pressing touch switches.
• Use caution when pressing touch switches if there is no display shown or
if the touch switch backlight is not lit.
• The inputs may not be read properly if touch switches are pressed in rapid
succession. Confirm one input before proceeding with the next.
• Confirm that the created screen data is backed up in the CX-Designer
before initializing the screen data.
• When changing the password in the System Menu, do not reset the PT or
turn OFF the power supply until the write operation has been performed
(i.e., until the Write Button returns to normal). The screen may not function if the password is not properly saved.
• When using the device monitor function, thoroughly confirm system safety
before performing the following operations.
• Changing present values for monitor data, timers, or counters
• Changing the operating mode
• Force-setting/resetting bits
• Changing settings for timers or counters
• Never use volatile solvents, such as paint thinner or benzene, or chemical
wipes for cleaning.

EMC Directive Conformance
OMRON products are designed as electrical devices for use built into other
devices or the overall machine. As individual devices, they comply with the
related EMC standards (see note) so that they can more easily be built into
other devices or the overall machine. The actual products have been checked
for conformity to EMC standards. Whether they 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 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:
NSH5-series PTs comply with EC Directives. Observe the following precautions to ensure that the customer’s device and the overall machine also comply with EC Directives.

Wiring the Serial Communications Line
Depending on the type of cable, there are two types of serial communications
wiring: RS-232C connector and RS-422A connector. For RS-232C or RS422A connector, the connector is a 9-pin male D-Sub connector and can be
directly connected to the RS-232C or RS-422A port of an OMRON SYSMAC
CS/CJ-series PLC.
A conversion cable must be prepared in order to connect to any other host.
The function keys and the emergency stop switch are connected through the
Removable Box connected via the Removable Box Cable and output to safety
circuits or other circuits connected to the hard-wired terminal block.
Wiring the Serial Communications Line
There is only one type of RS-232C connector. It is a 37-pin male D-Sub connector and can be directly connected to the RS-232C port on the NSH5AL001 Removable Box.

Power Supply and FG WiringSection 2-2
(2) Use a DC power supply with little voltage fluctuation.
(3) Do not perform a dielectric strength test.
(4) To comply with the Low-voltage Directive in the EC Directives, use a pow-
er supply with reinforced insulation. Reinforced insulation is a single insulation method that can protect against electrical shock to the same
degree as double insulation.
Recommended model: S82K-03024 (manufactured by OMRON)
(5) Insert a 3-A fuse immediately after the secondary output from the power
supply.
(6) To comply with UL-recognized standards, always use a Class 2 power supply. A
Class 2 power supply refers to one in which the current and voltage levels
of the product’s secondary output are both limited (100 VA max.), and
which has undergone and passed the necessary tests for UL certification.
2-2-2FG Wiring
The cable connected to the PT has a functional ground terminal (FG)
Wire them according to the conditions described below.
1,2,3...1. If there is a ground potential difference between the NSH5 and the host,
install them as shown in the following diagram.
Do not ground the PT if there is a distance between the PT and the ground
and one-point grounding is difficult.
2. If the PT is installed in the same panel as a source of noise, such as a motor or an inverter, do not ground the PT.

SECTION 3
Functions
This section describes the functions that have been expanded or newly added to the NSH5 Programmable Terminal.
Settings are required from the CX-Designer to use function keys with software
notification (F3 to F5 and F8 to F10) or to obtain removable box station numbers. The settings for these functions are enabled when NSH5 screen
projects are created using CX-Designer. To create new projects using CXDesigner, select the NSH5-SQ0@-V2 or the NSH5-SQ1@-V2 as the PT
model.
An NSH5 screen project can be created using screen data created for an earlier PT. With the original screen project opened, it can be converted to an
NSH5 screen project by selecting Tool - Convert - Model from the menu, and
then selecting the NSH5-SQ0@-V2 or the NSH5-SQ1@-V2.
3-2Emergency Stop Switch
The emergency stop switch can be used by workers to immediately stop the
machine when an error occurs during operation or when a hazardous situation arises. The emergency stop switch has a DPST-NC contact structure for
an external safety circuit. At the same time, a software condition (NO bit) can
be used for internal or host notification, making the overall combined emergency stop switch a DPST-NC contact + NO bit switch.
Hard-wired DPST-NC contact
DPST-NC contact + NO bi
Software NO bit
NoteUse the software contact to monitor the emergency stop switch.
When the emergency stop switch is pressed to the lock position, as shown
below, it will be turned OFF and locked. This prevents the switch from being
turned OFF by being accidentally bumped, i.e., it will not operate unless it is
pressed all the way to the lock position. An emergency stop can thus be executed only through a clear and intentional action. The lock is cleared by turning the button clockwise (in the direction of the RESET arrows).
Lock position
Note(1) When detaching and using the PT in a hand-held condition, use the
NSH5-SQG@0B-V2 (with grey switch). This functions as the stop switch and can
be used in either the hand-held or mounted condition. When using the NSH5SQR@0B-V2 (with red switch), it functions as the emergency stop switch so the
PT must be mounted and used on a control panel in a way that it cannot be detached. Both gray and red switches have the same switching function.
(2) The emergency stop must be enabled in all modes, and it must take high-
est priority over any other control operations. (ISO 13850, Item 4-1;
IEC 60204-1, Item 9-2)
(3) An emergency stop switch must be located near each control panel or
other operation site, and it must be accessible for rapid use in case of
emergency. (ISO 12100-2, Item 3-7; ISO 13850, Item 4-4; and IEC
60204-1, Item 10-7)

Enabling SwitchSection 3-3
3-3Enabling Switch
3-3-1Overview
In contrast to the emergency stop switch, which lets a worker intentionally
stop the machine in case of an emergency, the enabling switch makes it easier to avoid danger with no conscious decision by a worker. When work is
required in hazardous areas, e.g, during maintenance, devices with enabling
switches provide an important safety measure by preventing unexpected
operations from occurring while work is underway in the those areas.
Manual operation of devices is permitted while the enabling switch is lightly
pressed. At soon as a hazardous situation arises, however, operation is
stopped if the worker instinctively either lets go of the enabling switch or
grasps it more tightly.
Some standards, such as the ANSI/RIA R15.06 and CSA/Z434-03 Industrial
Robot Standards and the ANSI/B11.19 Machine Tool Standards, require the
use of enabling switches. In EN 60204-1, enabling switches are not required
but are recommended as auxiliary devices.

3-5Memory Cards
Memory Cards are used for storing and transferring screen data, log data,
and system programs. This section provides an overview of Memory Card
functions. Refer to the NS-Designer Operation Manual (Cat. No. V074-E1) for
details on Support Software transferring methods.
3-5-1Memory Card Applications
Memory Cards can be used at the PT itself. Log files can be saved to a Memory Card as CSV files. There are four kinds of log files, as shown in the following table.
Alarm/event
history
Data logStores trend data.
Operation logStores screen operation log data.
Error logStores error log data for when macros are executed.
Log data is normally saved in internal memory that is backed up in the PT, but
can also be saved in CSV file format. When log data is saved as a CSV file, it
is stored on the Memory Card. The CSV files containing log data are saved in
the log folder created in the Memory Card.
The following data can be transferred using a Memory Card.
• System programs (programs required for operating the PT, such as for
communications and fonts)
Stores alarm/event history data that has been registered by CXDesigner.
38
Memory CardsSection 3-5
• Screen data (data used in the PT display)
The transfer method is manual transfer (i.e., the data to be transferred
and the transfer direction are selected manually), and operations are
specified from the System Menu.
NoteThere are four recommended Memory Card models, each of which, has a dif-
A Memory Card can be overwritten approximately 100,000 times. When using
a PC card socket in devices such as notebook computers, use an HMCAP001 Memory Card Adapter.
NoteUse the Memory Cards recommended by OMRON. Operation may not be cor-
rect if other memory cards are used.

Card from popping out and falling, hold the Memory Card with your index finger while pushing the eject button with your middle finger.
3-5-3Replacing the System Program
The system program in the PT can be replaced or upgraded to a higher version. There are two methods that can be used to replace the system program.
• Using a recovery/upgrade program
• Transferring system program data
Note(1) The system program must be version 8.0 or higher to be installed.
(2) Consult your OMRON representative if a system program of a version
lower than 8.0 is to be installed.
(3) Use the recovery/update program to install the system program.
Using a Recovery/
Upgrade Program
Use the following procedure to replace the system program if the system program becomes corrupted and the PT will not start or to upgrade the system
program in the PT.
40
Memory CardsSection 3-5
1,2,3...1. Copy all of the files and folders in the RecoverUpdate_@_@ folder inside
the CX-Designer installation folder (default: C:\ProgramFiles\Omron\CXOne\CX-Designer) to a Memory Card. This program can be selected when
installing the CX-Designer.
(“@_@” will be replaced by numbers indicating the system program version. For example “RecoverUpdate_7_0” is the file for version 7.0.)
2. Insert the Memory Card into the PT and turn ON the power supply. The recovery/update program will start automatically.
3. The indicator will flash green when the download has been completed normally.
Note(1) For details on the recovery/update program, select Start - Program -
OMRON - CX-One - CX-Designer - How to recover the system prog
Ver. 7.0.
(2) Refer to information on the procedure for recovery and update and to the
Setup Manual for troubleshooting information if an error is displayed
when you use the recovery/update program.
Transferring System
Program Data
The System Program is stored under the CX-Designer's install folder (default
location is C:\Program Files\Omron\CX-One\CX-Designer) in folders that are
created for each type and version, as follows:
\SystemBackup\NSH5\V@_@\bank1: NSH5 system program
(“@_@” will be replaced by numbers indicating the system program version.
For example “RecoverUpdate_7_0” is the file for version 7.0.)
To replace a system program, use Windows Explorer or another method to
copy each of the folders for the required system program under \bank1 to the
route directory of the Memory Card.
For details on methods for transferring data from the Memory Card to the PT,
refer to 3-5-4 Transferring Data with Memory Cards.
The system backup folder can be created only if CX-Designer is installed from
the stand-alone CD-ROM. If the CX-Designer is installed from CX-One, reinstall the system program by following the procedure for using a recovery/
update program described above.
3-5-4Transferring Data with Memory Cards
Using a Memory Card with the PT allows system programs (programs
required for operating the PT, such as programs for communications and
fonts) and screen data to be transferred to and from the PT.
There are several types of data transfers, including manual transfers (in which
the data to be transferred and the direction of transfer are selected manually),
downloads (in which data is transferred automatically from the Memory Card
to the PT), uploads (in which data is transferred automatically from the PT to
the Memory Card), and bank specifications (four banks max.). The transfer
method is specified using the System Menu.
Note(1) Before transferring data, check to be sure that the system programs and
screen data types match those in the PT.
(2) Do not perform the following operations while accessing the Memory
Card. The data may be damaged and the Memory Card may need to be
formatted.
• Turning OFF the power to the PT.
• Removing the Memory Card.

USB PortSection 3-6
3-6USB Port
The USB port can be used to transfer screens created by the CX-Designer.
For details, refer to the NS Series Setup Manual (Cat. No. V083-E1).
3-6-1Connecting to the USB Port
Open the cover on top of the PT, as shown in the following diagram, and connect a commercially available USB cable to the USB port. (For details on
opening the cover, refer to 3-5 Memory Cards.)
3-7Usable Host Connection Methods
The NSH5 has one serial port corresponding to serial port A in the NS Series,
for connecting to the PLC. Unlike with the NS Series, it is not possible to connect using serial port B, the Ethernet port, or Controller Link. When using CXDesigner to set the connection method, do not set any communications ports
other than serial port A.
The communications methods shown in the following table can be set, using
the serial port.
Host connection methodUsability
1:N NT LinkOK (See note 1.)
1:1 NT Link OK
Host LinkOK
Note(1) Only one NSH5 can be connected to any one communications port on the
PLC. More than one PT cannot be connected at the same time.
(2) Only PT memory can be allocated as the notification destination for the
emergency stop switch and function switches F3 to F5 and F8 to F10.
Host allocations are not possible.
The PT can also communicate with the following products:
• Mitsubishi FX-series, A-series, and Q-series PLCs
• SIEMENS S7-300-series PLCs
• Yaskawa MP-series Machine Controllers
• Yaskawa Varispeed F7-series and VS mini V7-series Inverters
Refer to the Host Connection Manual (Multivendor Connection) for connection
methods.
3-8Station Detection Function
The station detection function allows the NSH5 to read the box number
switches (4-bit switches) for removable boxes. Thus, when a removable box is
connected, the NSH5 is able to detect it.
By automatically displaying station screens, and by giving notification of which
station the PLC is currently in, the stations that can be operated can be limited. To ensure safety, other forms of operation are disabled.
Internal Memory
Allocation
The PT’s station detection function can be allocated any address in the internal memory, and the ON/OFF status can be monitored at the allocated
address.
To specify the address in internal memory that is to be allocated for the station
status monitor address, first select PT - System Setting in CX-Designer version 6.5 or higher, and then click the NS Handy Terminal Tab. In the StationStatus Monitor Address Field, click the appropriate Set Button, and specify
the address that is to be allocated.
When removable boxes are used, the station numbers for the removable
boxes are acquired and notification is provided to one word in either $W or
$HW in PT memory. If function key status cannot be obtained due to a problem, such as a hardware error, or when a status error flag for an error, such as
a communications error, is generated, notification is provided to the same
word.
Bit allocations within the word is as follows:

Connecting to the Removable Box
This chapter describes the Removable Box, which is connected to the NSH5.
An NSH5-AL001 Removable Box can be connected between the NSH5SQG@0B-V2 PT (the model with a gray stop switch) and the host PLC to
enable easily attaching and detaching the NSH5 without affecting the wiring to
the PLC or safety circuits. The Removable Box also enables converting
between RS-232C and RS-422A.
The Removable Box is equipped with a rotary switch to set the station number
used to identify the Removable Box and a DIP switch for setting RS-422A
communications conditions.
System ConfigurationThe NSH5 PT is connected to a PLC through the Removable Box. Always use
an NSH5-232CN-3M/10M Special Cable to connect the NSH5 PT to the
Removable Box.

Ground and Shield WiringPerform the following connections, shield wiring, and grounding in any com-
munications system using the Removable Box. Incorrect connections may
cause a host communications error.
• Connecting the Removable Box D-Sub Connector
Be sure to fasten the screws on both sides of the D-Sub connector. If
these screws are not fastened, the NSH5 PT's functional ground terminal
and the Removable Box's FG will not be connected.
• Ground Line Wiring
The Removable Box is equipped with a functional ground ().
1. Normally, ground the Removable Box as shown in Figure A on the fol-
lowing page.
• Connect the ground terminals on all Units and the functional ground,
and ground the line at one location to 100
Ω or less.
• Short the PLC's LG terminal and the GR terminal.
• The ground wire must be 2 mm
2
or larger.
• For detailed grounding instructions, refer to the operation manual for
the Communications Unit.
2. If a source of noise, such as a motor or inverter, is grounded to the same
panel, do not ground the Removable Box's functional ground terminal
(), as shown in the Figure B.
• RS-422A Cable Shield Wiring
Be sure to connect the shield on the RS-422A cable. If the shield is not
connected, a host communications error may occur.
When connecting the ground terminals on all Units and the functional
ground, and grounding the line at one location to 100
Ω or less, connect
the shield only at one end of each line, as shown in Figure A.
If the Removable Box's functional ground terminal is not grounded, connect the shield at both ends of each line, as shown in Figure B.

SECTION 5
Inspection and Maintenance
This section describes inspection and maintenance and the contents of error messages for the NSH5 Programmable
Termi nal.
Perform maintenance operations to keep the NSH5-series PT in optimum
condition.
!WARNING Do not disassemble the PT or touch the inside of the PT while the power is
turned ON. Doing so may result in electrical shock.
Backing Up Project DataBe sure to back up project data and store it in a secure location, in case the
PT should have to be sent out for repairs or be replaced.
Keeping a Spare PTIt is recommended that a spare PT be kept on hand, in order to enable faster
system recovery in case the original PT should be damaged or the screen
cannot be read due to reaching the end of the backlight service.
Replacing the BacklightIf the brightness of the backlight is diminished and the screen becomes diffi-
cult to read, the backlight must be replaced. A backlight cannot be replaced by
the user. If this situation occurs, please contact an OMRON representative.
Ordinarily a backlight would need to be replaced after approximately 75,000
hours at normal temperature and humidity. The service life is shortened in an
extremely cold environment. Replace the backlight if the brightness diminishes and the screen becomes difficult to read.
Replacing the BatteryScreen data such as calendars, clocks, and log data are backed up by a lith-
ium battery. The battery service life is approximately five years when used in
an environment with a temperature of 25
of use is higher than this, the battery life will be shortened. Change the battery
at suitable intervals in accordance with the operating environment.
It is recommended that a spare battery be kept on hand so that the battery
can be quickly replaced when necessary.
Replacement Battery
The replacement battery shown below is a lithium battery for backing up the
memory contents.

NoteReplace the battery within five minutes of disconnecting it.
5-2Inspection and Cleaning
Clean and inspect the NSH5-series PT regularly to ensure that it is always
used under optimum conditions.
CleaningIf the display gets dirty, the screen becomes difficult to read. Clean the screen
periodically as follows:
• Wipe the display daily with a dry, soft cloth. If the soil is particularly heavy,
attempting to remove it by wiping with a dry cloth may damage the front
sheet of the PT. In that case, wipe it with a damp cloth.
• If the soiling cannot be wiped off with a dry cloth, wet the cloth with diluted
neutral detergent (2%) and wring it out well before using it.
• If rubber or vinyl products, tape, etc., are left stuck to the display for long
periods, they will cause staining. If such items are stuck to the display,
remove them during cleaning.
NoteNever use chemical dusters or volatile solvents such as benzenes or thinners.
Inspection IntervalIn normal environments, inspect the PT at intervals of six months to one year.
If the PT is used in an environment that is extremely hot and humid, or very
dusty, shorten the inspection interval.
63
Inspection and CleaningSection 5-2
Items to InspectInspect the following items to determine whether there is any divergence from
the stated criteria. If there is, either improve the surrounding environment so
that the values fall within the stated range, or adjust the PT by, for example, retightening screws.
