Power Cord Preparation
Before using your power cord:
Verify that the ground wire is the same gauge or heavier than the power wires.
Do not use aluminum wires for the power supply’s power cord.
If the conductor end (individual) wires are not twisted correctly, the end wires may either
short loop to each other or against an electrode. To avoid this, use D25CE/AZ5CE cable
ends.
Use wires that are 0.75 to 2.5 mm
2
(18 to 12 AWG) for the power cord, and twist the wire
ends before attaching the terminals.
The conductor type is solid or stranded wire.
To reduce electromagnetic noise, make the power cord as short as possible.

Connecting the Power Cord
The table explains how to connect the power plug:
StepAction
1Confirm the power cord is not connected to the power supply.
2Check the rated voltage and remove the "DC24V" sticker on the DC power supply
connector.
3Remove 10 mm (0.39 in.) of the vinyl membrane off the ends of the power code wires.
4If using stranded wire, twist the ends. Tinning the ends with solder reduces risk of
fraying and ensures good electrical transfer.
5Push the Opening button with a small and flat screwdriver to open the desired pin hole.
35
Page 36
English
StepAction
6Insert each pin terminal into its corresponding hole. Release the Opening button to
clamp the pin in place.
7After inserting all three pins, insert the power plug into the power connector on the LT.
NOTE:
Do not solder the wire directly to the power receptacle pin.
The power supply cord must meet the specification shown above. Twist the power
cords together, up to the power plug, for EMC compliance.
Use field wiring terminal marking for wire type (75 ° C (167 ° F) copper conductors only).
Precautions:
Connect the power cord to the power connector on the rear module using the power
plug.
Use a regulated power supply with a Class 2 power supply between the line and the
ground.
Do not bundle the power supply cord with, or keep close to, main circuit lines (high
voltage, high current), or I/O signal lines.
Connect a lightning surge absorber to handle power surges.
Excessive stress on the power connection or attempting to install the rear module with the
power cables connected may disconnect, or cause damage, to the power connections.
This can cause short circuits, fire, or unintended equipment operation.
WARNING
SHORT CIRCUITS, FIRE, OR UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Securely attach power cables to the panel or cabinet.
Secure the power plug of the rear module.
Install and fasten the rear module on the installation panel or cabinet prior to
connecting power supply and communication lines.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.

Power Supply Connections
For maintenance purpose, use the following connection diagram to set up your power
supply connections. However, when terminals A2 and B2 (signal name: Q1, Q0) are wired
to external I/O, use the same power source for external I/O and the LT:
When wiring terminals A2 and B2 (signal name: Q1, Q0) to external I/O:
NOTE:
When connector A2 and B2 (Signal Name: Q1, Q0) are wired to external I/O, turn on the
LT before turning on the external device. Otherwise the wrong signal for Pulse Output,
PWM Output and High-speed Counter (Synchronize Output) will be output. When
transferring a program that turns off or resets the LT, first turn off the external device.
When using a system with multiple power supplies, please note there is also a power
supply in the external device.
English
Ground the surge absorber separately from the rear module.
Select a surge absorber that has a maximum circuit voltage greater than the peak
voltage of the power supply.

Grounding the System
To minimize the effects of electromagnetic interference, cables carrying the fast I/O,
analog I/O, and Serial communication signals must be shielded.
IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN CAUSE UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Use cables with insulated shielded jackets for analog I/O, fast I/O and communication
Ground shielded cables for analog I/O, fast I/O and communication signals at a single
Always comply with local wiring requirements regarding grounding of cable shields.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or
equipment damage.
signals.
point
WARNING

.
1
To avoid damage to the shielded cable when there is a short circuit in the power line, set
up a multi-point frame ground (FG) each with the same electric potential.
The use of shielded cables requires compliance with the following wiring rules:
When there is no protective earth ground, you can use metal conduit or cable duct
shield as a part of the protective earth ground. The functional ground (FE) shield must
attenuate electromagnetic interference and must be shielded the length of the cable. If
the purpose is for both functional and protective grounding, as is often the case for
communication cables, the cable must have continuous shielding.
Wherever possible, keep cables carrying one type of signal separate from the cables
carrying other types of signals or power.
Protective Earth Ground on the Backplane
For protective grounding, connect braided copper cable (that can withstand the maximum
voltage/current allowed by the system) to the conductive backplane.
38
Page 39
LT-4201TM/4301TM Installation Guide
Functional Ground on the DIN Rail
The DIN rail for your LT system is common with the functional ground plane and must be
mounted on a conductive backplane.
WARNING
UNINTENDED EQUIPMENT OPERATION
When connecting DIN rails, connect the DIN rails to functional ground (FE).
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.
Shielded Cable Connections
Cables carrying the fast I/O, analog I/O, and Serial communication signals must be
shielded. The shielding must be securely connected to ground. The fast I/O and analog I/O
shields may be connected either to the functional ground (FE) or to the protective earth
ground (PE) of your LT.
WARNING
ACCIDENTAL DISCONNECTION FROM PROTECTIVE GROUND (PE)
Do not use the grounding bar to provide a protective earth ground (PE).
Use the grounding bar only to provide a functional ground (FE).
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment
damage.
English
DANGER
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

Page 41
LT-4201TM/4301TM Installation Guide
Common Grounding
If exclusive grounding is not possible, use a common grounding point. Use grounding
resistance of 10 Ω or less, wire thickness of 2.6 mm or more, or your country’s applicable
standard for the grounding point.
Precautions:
Do not use common grounding, since it can lead to accidents and machine breakdown.
If the equipment does not function properly when grounded, disconnect the ground wire
from the FG terminal.
If exclusive grounding is not possible, use a common connection point.
English
Grounding Procedure
StepAction
1Check that the grounding resistance is less than 100 Ω.
(Grounding resistance of 100 Ω or less, wire thickness of 1.6 mm or more, or your
country’s applicable standard.)
2Create the connection point as close to the unit as possible, and make the wire as short
as possible. When using a long grounding wire, replace the thin wire with a thicker wire,
and place it in a duct.
NOTE: FG and SG terminals are internally connected in the LT. When connecting an
external device to the LT using the SG terminal, be sure to check that no short-circuit loop
is created when you setup the system.
