8) Fan Unit

This is the fan unit to cool down the controller. This unit can be detached from the controller

for maintenance by removing the screw on the hook in the front of the controller.

9) Operation Mode Setting Switch

This is a switch to change the operation mode between Automatic Operation (AUTO) and

Manual Operation (MANU). The operation modes are provided to avoid the duplication of

the SIO (Serial) communication operation using PC software or a teaching pendant

(described as teaching tool from now on) and the operation with Fieldbus or PIO (Parallel

I/O)

For the details of the mode selection, refer to 11) System I/O Connector.

10) SIO Connector

This is a connector dedicated for the teaching tool connection.

11) System I/O Connector

This is a connector for additional devices for the input of all-axes external emergency stop,

AUTO/MANU switchover and external regenerative resistor.

It is connected in a series with the operation mode setting switch (AUTO/MANU) on the front

panel. The controller can be in the following modes by the mode selection on each switch

and teaching tool.

Note 1 : “Accept PIO Startup” and “Prohibit PIO Startup” are the functions to select the

operation mode of when the teaching tool is connected.

Note 2 : Refer to 2.3 [4] for the details.

Caution : (1) If “Accept PIO Startup” is selected on the teaching tool, the AUTO operation

becomes available no matter the condition of the front panel or external

switchover signal input, thus attention may have to be paid. In such a

condition, the actuator may get activated by following the signal from the host.

(2) The information of “Accept PIO Startup” or “Prohibit PIO Startup” is remained

when the teaching tool is removed from the controller. Do not fail to select

“Prohibit PIO Startup” when removing the teaching tool after finishing the

teaching operation or debugging.
