SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Read these precautions before using this product.) Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly. The precautions given in this manual are concerned with this product only. For the safety precautions of the programmable controller system, refer to the MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual.
Page 4
[Design Precautions] WARNING ● Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable controller. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident. (1) Emergency stop circuits, protection circuits, and protective interlock circuits for conflicting operations (such as forward/reverse rotations or upper/lower limit positioning) must be configured external to the programmable controller.
Page 5
[Design Precautions] WARNING ● Especially, when a remote programmable controller is controlled by an external device, immediate action cannot be taken if a problem occurs in the programmable controller due to a communication failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the program, and determine corrective actions to be taken between the external device and CPU module in case of a communication failure.
Page 6
[Installation Precautions] WARNING ● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing the module. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction. [Installation Precautions] CAUTION ●...
Page 7
[Wiring Precautions] CAUTION ● Individually ground the FG and LG terminals of the programmable controller with a ground resistance of 100 ohm or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction. ● Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them within the specified torque range. If any spade solderless terminal is used, it may be disconnected when the terminal screw comes loose, resulting in failure.
Page 8
[Startup and Maintenance Precautions] WARNING ● Do not touch any terminal while power is on. Doing so will cause electric shock or malfunction. ● Correctly connect the battery connector. Do not charge, disassemble, heat, short-circuit, solder, or throw the battery into the fire. Also, do not expose it to liquid or strong shock. Doing so will cause the battery to produce heat, explode, ignite, or leak, resulting in injury and fire.
Page 9
[Startup and Maintenance Precautions] CAUTION ● When connecting an external device with a CPU module or intelligent function module to modify data of a running programmable controller, configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate safely. For other forms of control (such as program modification, parameter change, forced output, or operating status change) of a running programmable controller, read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure that the operation is safe before proceeding.
Page 10
[Startup and Maintenance Precautions] CAUTION ● Before handling the module, touch a conducting object such as a grounded metal to discharge the static electricity from the human body. Failure to do so may cause the module to fail or malfunction. [Operating Precautions] CAUTION ●...

INSTALLATION AND WIRING This chapter describes the installation and wiring of the I/O modules. Before Using the I/O Modules Input modules Precautions common to all input modules ■Number of simultaneous ON points The number of input points that can be turned on at the same time varies depending on the input voltage and ambient temperature.
Output modules Precautions common to all output modules ■Maximum switching frequency when L load is driven The maximum switching frequency imposes a limit on the use; an ON state or an OFF state must not be changed without an interval of at least one second. ■Load to be connected When connecting a counter or timer utilizing a DC-DC converter as a load of the output module, select an output module whose maximum load current is higher than the inrush current of a load to be connected.

Precautions when using the contact output module When using the contact output module, carefully consider the following points: • Relay life (contact switching life) • Influence on the relay life by a connected load • Measures against back EMF ■Relay life (contact switching life) Applicable moduleRY10R2, RY10R2-TS, RY18R2A The relay life varies depending on the environment where a module is used.
Page 100
■Influence on the relay life by a connected load An actual relay life can be substantially shorter than the relay life curve depending on the type of a connected load and the characteristics of its inrush current. Page 97 Relay life (contact switching life) The inrush current generated by a connected load can lead to contact welding of the module.

Precautions when using the triac output module Because of characteristics of a triac, a sudden change of voltage or current may cause unstable operations of a triac used for the triac output module. Whether the voltage or current change causes a problem differs depending on an individual part (each triac), thus check the following when using the triac output module.
Page 104
■Measures for connecting an inductive load To connect an inductive load, take measures to reduce noise to the side where the load is connected as shown below. Circuit example Element selection criteria Remarks Varistor method Select a varistor whose cut-off voltage (Vc) The recovery time is a little delayed.
I/O combined module This section describes the precautions specific to the I/O combined module. The precautions other than the following are the same as the input module and output module. ( Page 94 Input modules, Page 95 Output modules) I/O numbers of the I/O combined module The I/O combined module assigns the same I/O number to each input and output.
1.5 (22 to 16 AWG) can be used when a spring clamp terminal block (Q6TE-18SN) is used instead. To use a wire of larger size than the one described in the above table, take a measure by using FA goods of Mitsubishi Electric Engineering Co., Ltd. (such as FA- TB161AC+ FA-CBL20D).
40-pin connector type module Precautions • Use copper wire with a temperature rating of 75 or higher for the connector. • Tighten the connector screws within the following specified torque range. Screw Tightening torque range Connector screw (M2.6) 0.20 to 0.29Nm Applicable connectors 40-pin connectors to be used for an input module, output module, and I/O combined module are sold separately.
Spring clamp terminal block (lever type) Precautions • Use bar solderless terminals for wiring to the terminal block. If a stripped wire is inserted into a wire insertion opening, the wire cannot be securely clamped. • For how long the wire should be stripped, follow the specifications of the bar solderless terminal used. To attach a bar solderless terminal to a wire, use a crimping tool.
Page 109
Processing method of the cable terminal Strip the cable from the tip to connect a bar solderless terminal at the stripped area. For how long the cable should be stripped, follow the specifications of the bar solderless terminal used. Stripping the cable too long may cause electric shock or short circuit between adjacent terminals because the conductive part sticks out of the terminal block.

PARAMETER SETTINGS This chapter describes the parameter settings of the I/O modules. Setting parameters here eliminates the need to program them. Parameter Setting Procedure Add the I/O module to the setting in the engineering tool. [Navigation window] [Parameter] [Module Information] Right-click [Add New Module] The parameter setting consists of four items: the input response time setting, interrupt setting, setting of error-time output mode, and refresh setting.
Input response time setting Set the input response time setting (cannot be set for the AC input module). Item Setting range Reference input response time setting X00 to X3F • No Setting Page 115 Input Response Time • 10micro-s Setting •...
Interrupt setting Set the interrupt function for the input module. Item Setting range Reference input/interrupt setting • input Page 116 Interrupt Input Function • interrupt interrupt condition setting • leading edge • trailing edge • leading edge/trailing edge interrupt pointer I0 to I15, I50 to I1023 *1 For details on the available interrupt pointers, refer to the following.
Refresh setting Set the refresh timing of the refresh destination specified. Setting value Description At the Execution Time of END Instruction Refresh takes place at the time of the END processing of the CPU module. At the execution time of specified program Refresh takes place at the time of the execution of the program specified in "Refresh Group[n](n: 1-64)".
FUNCTIONS Input Response Time Setting This function allows changing the input response times of input modules by each input point. The input modules take in external input for the set input response time. External input Input module Input response time Setting method Set the input response time from "input response time setting".
Interrupt Input Function This function generates an interrupt from an input module. Operation An interrupt operation depends on the condition set in module parameters. In addition, an interrupt condition can be set for each point. When "interrupt condition setting" is set to "leading edge/trailing edge", an interrupt factor occurred during execution of an interrupt program is held only once, and the second and subsequent factors are ignored.
In-Error Output Mode Setting This setting allows selection of whether the CPU module clears or holds output to the output module and intelligent function module when a stop error occurs. Setting method Set the output method from "Setting of error-time output mode". [Navigation window] ...
Output ON Number Count Function This function counts the number of ON times for each output point of the contact output module within the range of 0 to 4294967295. The count value is held even if the contact output module is powered off. Checking the number of ON times The following two methods are used to read the number of ON times.
TROUBLESHOOTING Troubleshooting The RUN LED is not on. Check item Action Check whether power is supplied to the power supply module. Check that the supply voltage to the power supply module is within the rated range. Check whether the capacity of the power supply module is enough. Calculate the current consumption of mounted modules, such as the CPU module, I/O modules, and intelligent function modules to check that the power capacity is enough.
Input Circuit Troubles and Corrective Actions An input signal does not turn off. ■Case 1 Cause There is a leakage current from the input switch (driven by a contactless switch and others). AC input Leakage Input module current Power supply Action Connect an appropriate resistor so that the voltage between terminals of the input module would fall below the OFF voltage.
Page 123
■Case 4 Cause Even if the switch with LED indicator is turned off, there is a leakage current rising above the OFF current of the input module. Action Connect an appropriate resistor so that the current flowing into the input module would fall below the OFF current. RX40C7 2.82mA Iz=2.0mA...

An input signal does not turn on (AC input module). Cause Around the zero cross voltage (1) of the input signal (AC), there are step-like deformations as shown below: Action Improve the input signal waveform by using an on-line type UPS and others. An unintended signal is inputted.
Output Circuit Troubles and Corrective Actions Excessive voltage is applied to the load when the output is off (triac output). Cause The load is half-wave rectified internally. (In some cases this is true of solenoids.) Triac output module Load When the polarity of the power supply is as shown in (1), C is charged. When the polarity is as shown in [2], the voltage charged in C plus the line voltage are applied across D1.
Page 126
■Case 2 Cause When the load current is low (lower than 25mA), the triac does not operate and the load current flows to a phototriac as indicated by the arrows in the figure below. If an inductive load is connected as a load in this situation, the load may not turn off because the surge at the time of off is applied to the phototriac.
Page 127
A load momentarily turns on when the external power supply is powered on. Cause An incorrect output occurs due to the stray capacitance (C) between collector and emitter of a photocoupler. When a high sensitivity load (such as solid state relay) is used, this incorrect output may occur. Output module Load 12/24VDC...
Page 128
The load in the off state momentarily turns on at power off (transistor output). Cause When an inductive load is connected, the load in the off state (2) may turn on due to a sneak current from the back EMF at the shutoff (1). •...
Page 129
Action Take either one of the following two actions: Action 1: To suppress the back EMF, connect a diode in parallel with the load under the back EMF influence (3). • Sink output Back EMF Load • Source output Back EMF Load Action 2: Connect a diode into the path between the positive and negative terminals of the external power supply to provide a circulation path.
Page 130
A load inputs data incorrectly due to a chattering. Cause A device with a high input response speed is connected to the contact output module. Action Use a transistor output module. At output On, even loads in connection to other output simultaneously turn on. The following fault example and its corrective action are for the transistor output (source type).
