Warning

Warning

The compatibility of the product is the responsibility of the person
who designs the equipment or decides its specifications.

Since the product specified here is used under various operating
conditions, its compatibility with specific equipment must be decided by
the person who designs the equipment or decides its specifications
based on necessary analysis and test results.
The expected performance and safety assurance of the equipment will
be the responsibility of the person who has determined its compatibility
with the product.
This person should also continuously review all specifications of the
product referring to its latest catalog information, with a view to giving
due consideration to any possibility of equipment failure when
configuring the equipment.

Only personnel with appropriate training should operate
machinery and equipment.

The product may become unsafe if handled incorrectly.
The assembly, operation and maintenance of machines or equipment
must be performed by an operator who is appropriately trained and
experienced.

Do not attempt to service or replace product and
machinery/equipment until safety is confirmed.

1. The inspection and maintenance of machinery/equipment should
only be performed after measures to prevent falling or runaway of
the driven objects have been confirmed.

2. When the product is to be removed, confirm that the above safety
measures are implemented and the power from any appropriate
source is cut, and read and understand the specific product
precautions of all relevant products carefully.

3. Before machinery/equipment is restarted, take measures to prevent
unexpected operation and malfunction.

Caution

The product is provided for use in manufacturing industries.

The product herein described is basically provided for peaceful use in
manufacturing industries.
If considering using the product in other industries, consult SMC
beforehand and provide specifications or a contract, if necessary.
If anything is unclear, contact your nearest sales branch.

Refer to the operation manual on the SMC website
(URL http://www.smcworld.com).

1 Safety Instructions (Continued)

Contact SMC beforehand and take special consideration of safety
measures if the product is to be used in any of the following
conditions:

1. Conditions and environments outside of the given specifications, or use
outdoors or in a place exposed to direct sunlight.

2. Installation on equipment in conjunction with atomic energy, railways,
air navigation, space, shipping, vehicles, military, medical treatment,
combustion and recreation, or equipment in contact with food and
beverages, emergency stop circuits, clutch and brake circuits in press
applications, safety equipment or other applications unsuitable for the
standard specifications described in the product catalog.

3. An application which could have negative effects on people, property, or
animals requiring special safety analysis.

4. Use in an interlock circuit, which requires the provision of double
interlock for possible failure by using a mechanical protective function,
and periodical checks to confirm proper operation.

Warning

Caution

Connector “CI3 4” must be connected even when axis 3 and 4 are not used.
If not, a “Modbus Error” alarm will be generated.

Use “USB cable (JXC-W1-2)” when communicating with a PC.
