This installation guide provides simple function information or PLC control. Please read carefully this data sheet and manuals before using products. Especially read precautions then handle the products properly.
Safety Precautions
Meaning of warning and caution label
![]() | WARNING | WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury |
![]() | CAUTION | CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices |
WARNING |
① Do not contact the terminals while the power is applied. ② Be sure there are no foreign metallic matters. ③ Do not manipulate the battery(charge, disassemble, hitting, short, soldering). |
CAUTION |
① Be sure to check the rated voltage and terminal arrangement before wiring ② When wiring, tighten the screw of the terminal block with the specified torque range ③ Do not install flammable things in surroundings ④ Do not use the PLC in an environment of direct vibration ⑤ Except for expert service staff, Do not disassemble fix or modify the product ⑥ Use the PLC in an environment that meets the general specifications contained in this datasheet. ⑦ Be sure that external load does not exceed the rating of output module. ⑧ When disposing of PLC and battery, treat it as industrial waste. |
