Caution in Handling
1. Ensure use of the product in the specified conditions, environments and
ranges.
Not doing so may cause a drop in performance or malfunction of the product.
2. Use an appropriate teaching tool.
Make sure to use the PC software or teaching pendant that is applicable for this system.
[Refer to 1.1.2 Teaching Tool.]
3. Turn OFF the power before performing wiring maintenance.
Warning Turn OFF the power before performing wiring maintenance on the system, or
plugging in or disconnecting teach pendants or communication cables.
Performing maintenace while the power is kept ON may cause an electric
shock, short-circuit or ground fault, which may result in an accident such as
equipment damage, or burn-down of components, or a burn on your body.
4. Employ noise abatement precautions.
To avoid an operation error due to noise, take precautions to reduce the effect of noise,
especially among devices sharing the same power supply, or installed as components of the
same control system.
5. Simultaneous power application to XSEL controllers connected to the IA Net is
recommended.
When booting an IA Net connected XSEL controller, the system waits for the link (connection)
of all the stations set in I/O Parameters No.605 and 606. In case the link of all the stations is not
confirmed, “211/552: IA Net Link Error” will be issued. To avoid the link error at the startup, it is
suggested to set IA Net Error Monitor to 0 (Invalid) temporarily, or reboot the power to all the
connected stations at the same time. Thus, it is necessary to boot the power to all the
connected stations (controllers) at the same time.
In such cases as commissioning, or for tuning which requires the power to be supplied
individually, the link error can be avoided by setting IA Net Error Monitor in Parameter No. 607
to 0 (Not to Monitor). It is recommended to enable IA Net error monitoring (1: Monitor) after the
work is completed.
