valve manifold.
Wiring
•Connect the M12 or M8 connector cable. M12 connector is applicable for SPEEDCON
connector.
SPEEDCON connector wiring method is explained below.
(1)Align the mark B on the metal bracket of the cable side connector (plug/socket) with
the mark A.
(2)Align the mark C on the unit and insert the connector into the unit vertically.
If they are not aligned, the connector cannot be joined properly.
(3)When the mark B of the connector has been turned 180 degrees (1/2 turn), wiring is
completed. Confirm that the connection is not loose. If turned too far, it will become
hard to remove the connector.

•Examples of wiring with input devices
•When using a sensor whose analog output signal is 0 V standard type.
•When using a 2-wire current output type sensor.
•When using a differential output type sensor.
Precautions for handling
When an analog sensor is connected to the Analog input or I/O unit, pay attention
to the following cautions.
EX600 analog input has a differential input specification, and it receives 2-pin
(input +) signal based on 4-pin (input
-
). Because of the specification, if 4-pin is
not connected, it will not be able to read the signal input properly. Therefore,
when using an analog sensor that does not have the differential output type,
3-pin and 4-pin should be connected externally.
