Essential Safety Precautions

All safety-related procedures stated in this document must be followed to operate the LT correctly and safely. Be sure to read this and any related documents thoroughly to understand the correct operation and functions of the LT unit.

Safety Icons

Throughout this manual, these icons provide essential safety information for LT operation procedures requiring special attention. These icons indicate the following levels of danger:

Indicates situations where severe bodily injury, death or major equipment damage can occur.

Indicates situations where slight bodily injury or minor equipment damage can occur.

Indicates actions or procedures that should NOT be performed.

Indicates actions or procedures that MUST be performed to ensure correct unit operation.

System Design

Be sure to design your LT control system so that, in the event of a main power supply failure or a LT accident, the user system’s overall safety integrity will be maintained. If this is not done, incorrect output signals or a LT malfunction may cause an accident.

1)Interlock and other circuits designed to interrupt or oppose normal machine movement (such as Emergency Stop, General Protection, and forward and reverse rotation), as well as those designed to prevent machine damage (such as upper, lower, and traverse movement limit positioning) should all be designed to be located outside of the LT.

2)When the LT generates a “Watchdog Timer Error,” during logic program operating, the logic program operation will halt. Also, when Errors occur in Input/Output control areas that the LT cannot detect, unexpected movement may occur in those areas. Therefore, and to prevent unsafe machine movement, a “Failsafe Circuit” should be created which is completely external to the LT.

For a failsafe circuit, refer to “4.2.5 Installation Precautions” (page 4-13).

3)If a problem arises with an external unit’s relay or transistor, causing an output (coil) to remain either ON or OFF, a major accident can occur. To prevent this, be sure to set up external watchdog circuits that will monitor vital output signals.

2

Design a circuit that will supply power to the LT unit’s I/O before starting up the LT. If the LT unit’s internal program enters RUN mode prior to the I/O unit’s load control power turning ON, an incorrect output (signal) or malfunction could cause an accident.

Design a user program that ensures the safety of the user’s system, in the event of a LT display or control error, or either a data transmission error or power failure between the LT and a connected unit. These types of problems can lead to an incorrect output (signal) or malfunction, resulting in an accident.

Do not make switches using the switches on the touch panels which may cause operator injury and machine damage. An output may remain either ON or OFF and a major accident can occur. To prevent this, set up circuits such as limiters that will monitor vital output signals. Design switches for important operations to be performed by separate devices. An incorrect output or malfunction can occur and thereby cause an accident.

Do not create LT touch panel switches to control machine safety operations, such as an emergency stop switch. Install these switches as separate hardware switches, otherwise severe bodily injury or equipment damage can occur.

When using the LT with transportation vehicles (trains, cars, and ships), disaster and crime prevention devices, various types of safety equipment, and medical devices that are not life-support related, use redundant and/or failsafe system designs to ensure proper reliability and safety.

Do not use the LT as a warning device for critical alarms that can cause serious operator injury, machine damage or can halt system operation. Critical alarm indicators and their control/activator units must be designed using stand-alone hardware and/or mechanical interlocks.

Do not use the LT with aircraft control devices, aerospace equipment, central trunk data transmission (communication) devices, nuclear power control devices, or medical life support equipment, due to these devices’ inherent requirements of extremely high levels of safety and reliability.

When using the LT with transportation vehicles (trains, cars, and ships), disaster and crime prevention devices, various types of safety equipment, and medical devices that are not life-support related, use redundant and/or failsafe system designs to ensure proper reliability and safety.

After the LT unit’s backlight burns out the touch panel is still active, unlike the LT unit’s “Standby Mode”. If the operator fails to notice that the backlight is burned out and touches the panel, a potentially dangerous machine operation error can occur. Therefore, do not create LT unit touch panel switches that may cause injury and/or equipment damage. If your LT unit’s backlight suddenly turns OFF, use the following steps to determine if the backlight is actually burned out.

1)If the LT unit’s “Backlight Control” is not set and the screen has gone blank, your backlight is burned out.

2)If the LT unit’s “Backlight Control” is set to Standby Mode and the screen has gone blank, and touching the screen or performing another input operation does not cause the display to reappear, your backlight is burned out.

3

Handling

Do not disassemble or modify the LT unit. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock.

Do not operate the LT in an environment where flammable gases are present, since it may cause an explosion.

Wiring

To prevent electrical shock or equipment damage, unplug the LT unit’s power cord from the power supply prior to installing or wiring the LT.

To prevent an electric shock be sure to disconnect your LT unit’s power cord from the power supply before wiring the LT.

Do not use the voltage not specified in the manual. Doing so may cause a fire or an electric shock.

The cables connected to the LT should be secured by cable clamps to prevent weight or tension of the cables added to the connectors or terminals.

The LT unit’s wiring should be checked to confirm that both the operating voltage and wiring terminal locations are correct. If either the voltage or the wiring terminal location is incorrect, it can cause a fire or accident.

Maintenance

NEVER touch a live power terminal. Doing so could cause an electrical shock or a machine malfunction.

To prevent an electrical shock, unplug the LT unit’s power cord before either cleaning the LT or attaching/ detaching the power terminal attachment screws.

Do not connect or disconnect Host and LT unit communication cables while the LT is turned ON.

Do not replace the LT unit’s battery yourself. The LT uses a lithium battery for backing up its internal clock data and the battery may explode if it is replaced incorrectly. When replacement is required, please contact your local LT distributor.

Wiring Layout Precautions

To prevent a LT unit malfunction due to excessive noise, isolate all LT input/output signal lines from all power wiring or power cables via a separate wiring duct.

Installation

Be sure all cable connectors are securely attached to the LT unit. A loose connection may cause incorrect input or output signals.

4

Wiring

Be sure to ground the LT unit’s FG wire separately from other equipment FG lines. Also, be sure to use a grounding resistance of 100Ω or less and a 2mm2 [0.0062inch2] or thicker wire, or your country’s applicable standard. Otherwise, electric shock or malfunctions may result.

Be sure to use only the designated torque to tighten the LT unit’s terminal block screws. If these screws are not tightened firmly, it may cause a short-circuit, fire or incorrect unit operation.

Be sure that metal particles and wiring debris do not fall inside the LT unit. They can cause a fire, malfunction or incorrect unit operation.

Maintenance

Be sure to read the LT unit’s manual carefully before performing program changes, entering forced output, or using the RUN, STOP, or PAUSE commands while the LT is operating. Mistakes made when using these items can cause machine accidents or damage.

Be sure the electricity is turned OFF before attaching or detaching an I/O unit. If the electricity is ON when an I/O unit is attached or detached, damage or malfunction to the I/O unit may occur.

Unit Disposal

When the product is disposed of, it should be disposed of in a manner appropriate to, and in accordance with, the user country's industrial machinery disposal/recycling standards.

General Safety Precautions

Do not press on the LT unit’s display with excessive force or with a hard object, since it can damage the display. Also, do not press on the touch panel with a pointed object, such as the tip of a mechanical pencil or a screwdriver, since doing so can damage the touch panel.

Do not install the LT where the ambient temperature exceeds the specified range. Doing so may cause a unit malfunction.

To prevent abnormally high temperatures from occurring inside the LT, do not restrict or block the LT unit’s rear-face ventilation slots.

Do not operate the LT in areas where large, sudden temperature changes can occur. These changes can cause condensation to form inside the LT, possibly causing it to malfunction.

Do not allow water, liquids or metal fragments to enter inside the LT unit’s case, since they can cause either a malfunction or an electric shock. The allowable pollution degree is 2.

Do not operate or store the LT in locations where it can be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures, excessive dust, moisture or vibration.

Do not operate or store the LT where chemicals evaporate, or where chemicals are present in the air. Corrosive chemicals: Acids, alkalines, liquids containing salt

Flammable chemicals: Organic Solvents

5

Do not use paint thinner or organic solvents to remove dirt or oil from the LT unit’s surface. Instead, use a soft cloth moistened with a diluted neutral detergent.

Do not use or store the LT in areas with direct sunlight, since the sun’s ultraviolet rays may cause the LCD’s quality to deteriorate.

Do not store the LT in an area where the temperature is lower than that recommended in the LT unit’s specifications. Doing so may cause the LCD display’s liquid to congeal, which can damage the LCD. Also, if the storage area’s temperature becomes higher than the specified level, the LCD’s liquid may become isotropic, causing irreversible damage to the LCD. Therefore, only store the LT in areas where temperatures are within the LT unit’s specifications.

After turning OFF the LT, be sure to wait for 5 seconds before turning it ON again. The LT may not operate correctly if it is restarted too quickly.

Be sure to back up the LT screen data and logic programs in case they are lost accidentally.

LCD Panel Usage Precautions

•The LCD panel’s liquid contains an irritant. If the panel is damaged and any of this liquid contacts your skin, immediately rinse the area with running water for at least 15 minutes. If the liquid gets in your eyes, immediately rinse your eyes with running water for at least 15 minutes and consult a doctor.

•The LT unit’s LCD screen may flicker or show unevenness in the brightness of certain images or at some contrast settings. This is an LCD characteristics and not a product defect.

•There’s an individual difference in brightness and tone of LCD screen. Please be aware of this difference before using the lined-up plural units.

•Depending on the ambient temperature, LCD displays may sometimes look whitish (at high temperatures) or blackish (at low temperatures). This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect.

•Some of LT unit's LCD screens may contain light or dark pixels. This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect.

•Extended shadows, or “Crosstalk” may appear on the sides of screen images. This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect.

•The color displayed on the LT unit’s LCD screen may appear different when seen from outside the specified viewing angle. This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect.

•When the same image is displayed on the LT unit’s screen for a long period, an afterimage may appear when the image is changed. This is an LCD characteristic and not a product defect.

•To prevent an afterimage:

*Set the LT unit’s display OFF feature when you plan to display the same screen image for a long period of time.

*Change the screen image periodically and try to not display the same image for a long period of time.

•Please be aware that characteristics of the LT unit's LCD screen with a white LED backlight may change gradually owing to the deterioration of the backlight LED and the LCD display may look bluish.
