SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

•

(Always read these instructions before using this equipment.)

Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals introduced in this manual carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly.

The instructions given in this manual are concerned with this product. For the safety instructions of the programmable controller system, please read the CPU module user's manual.

In this manual, the safety instructions are ranked as "WARNING" and "CAUTION".

WARNING

CAUTION

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in medium or slight personal injury or physical damage.

Note that the

!

CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to the circumstances.

Always follow the instructions of both levels because they are important to personal safety.

Please save this manual to make it accessible when required and always forward it to the end user.

[Design Precautions]

!

WARNING

•

Some failures of the GOT main unit, communication board or cable may keep the outputs on or off.

An external monitoring circuit should be provided to check for output signals which may lead to a serious accident.

Not doing so can cause an accident due to false output or malfunction.

•

If a communication fault (including cable disconnection) occurs during monitoring on the GOT, communication between the GOT and PLC CPU is suspended and the GOT becomes inoperative.

For bus connection : The CPU becomes faulty and the GOT inoperative.

A system where the GOT is used should be configured to perform any significant operation to the system by using the switches of a device other than the GOT on the assumption that a GOT communication fault will occur.

Not doing so can cause an accident due to false output or malfunction.

!

CAUTION

•

Do not bundle the control and communication cables with main-circuit, power or other wiring.

Run the above cables separately from such wiring and keep them a minimum of 100mm apart.

Not doing so noise can cause a malfunction.

A - 1 A - 1

[Mounting Precautions]

!

WARNING

•

Before installing or removing the GOT main unit to or from an enclosure, always switch off the

GOT power externally in all phases.

Not doing so can cause a module failure or malfunction.

•

Before loading or unloading the communication board to or from the GOT, always switch off the

GOT power externally in all phases.

Not doing so can cause a module failure or malfunction.

!

CAUTION

•

The GOT should be used in the environment given in the general specifications of the GOT user's manual.

Not doing so can cause an electric shock, fire, malfunction or product damage or deterioration.

•

When mounting the GOT main unit to an enclosure, tighten the mounting screws in the specified torque range.

Undertightening can cause a drop, short circuit or malfunction.

Overtightening can cause a drop, short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.

•

When loading the communication board to the GOT main unit, fit it to the connection interface of the GOT and tighten the mounting screws in the specified torque range.

Undertightening can cause a drop, failure or malfunction.

Overtightening can cause a drop, failure or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.

A - 2 A - 2

[Wiring Precautions]

!

WARNING

•

Before starting wiring, always switch off the GOT power externally in all phases.

Not doing so may cause an electric shock, product damage or malfunction.

!

CAUTION

•

Please make sure to ground FG terminal, LG terminal, and protective ground terminal of the

GOT power supply unit by applying Class D Grounding (Class 3 Grounding Method) or higher which is used exclusively for the GOT.

Not doing so may cause an electric shock or malfunction.

•

Correctly wire the power supply module on the GOT after confirming the rated voltage and terminal arrangement of the product.

Not doing so can cause a fire or failure.

•

Tighten the terminal screws of the GOT power supply section in the specified torque range.

Undertightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction.

Overtightening can cause a short circuit or malfunction due to the damage of the screws or module.

•

Exercise care to avoid foreign matter such as chips and wire offcuts entering the module.

Not doing so can cause a fire, failure or malfunction.

•

Plug the bus connection cable by inserting it into the connector of the connected module until it

"clicks".

After plugging, check that it has been inserted snugly.

Not doing so can cause a malfunction due to a contact fault.

•

Plug the communication cable into the connector of the connected module and tighten the mounting and terminal screws in the specified torque range.



[Test Operation Precautions]

!

WARNING

•

Before performing test operation (bit device on/off, word device's present value changing, timer/counter's set value and present value changing, buffer memory's present value changing) for a user-created monitor screen, read the manual carefully to fully understand how to operate the equipment.

During test operation, never change the data of the devices which are used to perform significant operation for the system.

False output or malfunction can cause an accident.

A - 3 A - 3

[Startup/Maintenance Precautions]

!

WARNING

•

When power is on, do not touch the terminals.

Doing so can cause an electric shock or malfunction.

•

Before starting cleaning or terminal screw retightening, always switch off the power externally in all phases.

Not switching the power off in all phases can cause a module failure or malfunction.



!

CAUTION

•

Do not disassemble or modify the module.

Doing so can cause a failure, malfunction, injury or fire.

•

Do not touch the conductive and electronic parts of the module directly.

Doing so can cause a module malfunction or failure.

•

The cables connected to the module must be run in ducts or clamped.

Not doing so can cause the module or cable to be damaged due to the dangling, motion or accidental pulling of the cables or can cause a malfunction due to a cable connection fault.

•

When unplugging the cable connected to the module, do not hold and pull the cable portion.

Doing so can cause the module or cable to be damaged or can cause a malfunction due to a cable connection fault.

[Disposal Precautions]

!

CAUTION

•

When disposing of the product, handle it as industrial waste.

CHAPTER1 FUNDAMENTAL KNOWLEDGE

This manual describes procedures for creating a simple screen and monitoring with the

GOT for learning basic operations.

If using the GOT for the first time, read this manual to become familiar with operation of the GOT and the GT Designer.

POINT

The screen data and sequence programs created in Chapters 3 and 4 of this manual are packed with GT Designer.

Use them as required to check settings, for example.

1.1 About GOT

(1) What is the GOT?

The GOT can be used as an electronic operator panel which has achieved on its monitor screen the switch operation, lamp indication, data display, message display and other operations which were previously performed on an operator panel.

Space saving

Cost reduction

(2) About monitor screen data to be displayed on the GOT

The monitor screen data to be displayed on the GOT are created on a personal computer using the dedicated software (GT Designer).

You can perform the corresponding functions of the GOT by pasting display frame figures called switch figure, lamp figure, numerical display and other objects to create screens on GT Designer, and setting PLC CPU device memory

(bit, word) driven operating functions to the pasted objects.

The monitor screen data created are transferred to the GOT through an RS-232C cable or PC card (memory card).
