Never let external metallic objects touch the product when the system is running. Doing so may cause electric shock, short circuit, or malfunction of the device.
Do not place the product near inflammable material. Doing so may cause a fire.
All wiring work should be performed by an electrical engineer.
When handling the modules, ensure that all persons, the workplace and the packing are well grounded. Avoid touching conductive components, the modules contain electronic components that may be destroyed by electrostatic discharge.

CAUTION

About the G-series System

System Overview

Network Adapter Module – The network adapter module forms the link between the field bus and the field devices with the expansion modules. The connection to different field bus systems can be established by each of the corresponding network adapter modules, e.g., for MODBUS TCP, Ethernet IP, EtherCAT, PROFINET, CC-Link IE Field, PROFIBUS, CANopen, DeviceNet, CC-Link, MODBUS/Serial, etc.

Expansion Module – Expansion module types: Digital IO, Analog IO, and Special modules.
Messaging – The system uses two types of messaging: Service messaging and IO messaging.

IO Process Data Mapping

An expansion module has three types of data: IO data, configuration parameter, and memory register. The data exchange between the network adapter and the expansion modules is made via IO process image data by internal protocol.

Data flow between network adapter (63 slots) and expansion modules

The input and output image data depend on the slot position and the data type of the expansion slot.

The ordering of input and output process image data is based on the expansion slot position. Calculations for this arrangement are included in the manuals for network adapters and programmable IO modules.
Valid parameter data depends on the modules in use. For example, analog modules have settings of either 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA, and temperature modules have settings such as PT100, PT200, and PT500.
The documentation for each module describes the parameter data.
