SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Preface-1 WindO/I-NV2 User’s Manual
Confirm that the delivered product is what you have ordered. Read this manual to make sure of correct operation.
• Be certain to read this manual carefully before performing installation, wiring, or maintenance work, or operating
the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F.
• The HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F has been manufactured with careful regard to quality. However,
if you intend to use this product in applications where failure of this equipment may result in damage to property or
injury, ensure that it used in conjunction with appropriate fail-safe backup equipment.
• In this manual, safety precautions are categorized in order of importance to Warning and Caution:
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning notices are used to emphasize that improper operation may cause severe
personal injury or death.
Caution notices are used where inattention might cause personal injury or damage to
equipment.
• The HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F is not intended to be used for applications which require
high reliability and safety, such as medical equipment, nuclear equipment, railways, aircraft, and vehicles. The
HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F cannot be used for these applications.
For other applications which require high reliability in function and precision, provide a failsafe design and
redundant design for the entire system including the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F.
• Turn off the power to the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F before installation, removal, wiring,
maintenance, and inspection of the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F. Failure to turn power off
may cause electrical shock or fire hazard.
• Special expertise is required to install, wire, configure, and operate the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/
3F/4F. People without such expertise must not use the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F.
• The HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F uses an LCD (liquid crystal display) as a display device. The
liquid inside the LCD is harmful to the skin. If the LCD is broken and the liquid attaches to your skin or clothes,
wash the liquid off using soap, and consult a doctor immediately.
• Emergency and interlocking circuits must be configured outside of the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/3F/4F.
Also, connect the emergency stop switch (Direct opening action, Red switch) or the stop switch (Direct opening
action, Gray switch) on the HG2S to the emergency stop circuit fixed to the machine in accordance with
ISO13850/EN418.
• Do not use the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/3F/4F’s internal touch switches for an emergency circuit. If
the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F failed, the external equipment connected to the HG2G-S/
-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F will no longer be protected, and serious injury to operators and
equipment damage may be caused.
• If an emergency stop switch is used for the HG2S, it should be secured and connected to the machine for fear of
disconnecting easily.
• Connect the emergency stop switch or the stop switch and the enabling switch on the HG2S to function as either
a category 0 or category 1 stop in accordance with IEC/EN60204-1 which applies to the HG2S.
• When the HG2S cable can be easily disconnected from the machine, use the HG2S with a stop switch so that the
operator can easily notice that the HG2S is NOT an emergency stop device which always functions.
