* Expansion is possible with the number of units given above, regardless of the type of unit.
Restrictions when connecting a 5 V DC-type
The number of units which can be expanded depends on the unit type.
Maximum of two expansion units *
Maximum of six expansion units *
The method for calculating the number of units that can be expanded is
provided in the manual. Follow that formula and keep the GT01's power
consumption not higher than 200 mA when calculating.
There are no particular restrictions.
Keep the unit's 24 V power consumption not higher than 100 mA when
calculating.
The restrictions are equivalent to the restrictions on the programmable display
F920 (5 V power supply type) made by Mitsubishi.
Use the FX series according to the use conditions for the F920 (5 V power
supply type).
