Operating Environment Precautions - Omron SYSMAC CS1G Operation Manual

Operating Environment Precautions

• Do not pull on the cables or bend the cables beyond their natural limit. Doing so may break the
cables.
• Do not turn off the power supply to the Unit while data is being written to flash memory.
Doing so may cause problems with flash memory.
• Confirm that user program for proper execution before actually running it on the Unit.
Not checking the program may result in an unexpected operation.
• Check the user program for proper execution before actually running it on the Unit.
Not checking the program may result in an unexpected operation.
• Resume operation only after transferring to the new MC Unit the contents of the parameters, position
data, and other data required for resuming operation.
Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation.
• Resume operation only after transferring to the new CPU Unit the contents of the DM Area, HR Area,
and other data required for resuming operation. Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation.
• After transferring the system parameters, servo parameters, programs, position data, and CAM data
to the MC Unit, be sure to save the data in flash memory within the MC Unit (using the data save
command from support tool or CPU Unit) before turning OFF the power supply to the Unit. Transfer-
ring the data to the MC Unit will simply save the data in the internal memory (S-RAM) of the MC Unit
and this data will be deleted when the power supply to the Unit is turned OFF.
• After transferring the system parameter data to the MC Unit and saving the data to flash memory, be
sure to reset the power supply to the unit or restart the Unit. Otherwise, some of the unit parameters
and machine parameters will not be changed.
• The Machine lock function is enabled in each axis, for the effects on the operations with multiple axes
such as interpolation operation be sure to machine lock all of relative axes in order to prevent the
interference with other axes or devices.
• If axes are stopped during a synchronized operation, however, the synchronization of the master axis
and slave axes positions will be cancelled. For that reason, be aware of the interference with other
axes or devices when restarting up.
• When the load OFF status is occurred in the CPU Unit during manual operation such as JOG, which
is performed by operating input variables from the MC Unit's program, the operation will be continued
for one-cycle of the Unit. Using the WHILE command to repeat until given condition is satisfied, how-
ever, it continues to operate even load-OFF has occurred, be aware of the interference with other
axes or devices.
• Parameters and programs for MC Units with unit version 2.0 or later can be transferred to pre-Ver. 2.0
MC Units, but the new and upgraded functions for unit Ver. 2.0 will be disabled.
• Do not attempt to take any Units apart, to repair any Units, or to modify any Units in anyway.
5 Operating Environment Precautions
• The installation must be conducted correctly.
• Do not operate the control system in the following places.
• Locations subject to direct sunlight
• Locations subject to temperatures or humidity outside the range specified in the specifications
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature.
• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases.
• Locations subject to dust (especially iron dust) or salts.
• Locations subject to exposure to water, oil, or chemicals.
• Locations subject to shock or vibration.
• Take appropriate and sufficient countermeasures when installing systems in the following locations.
Inappropriate and insufficient measures may result in malfunction.
• Locations subject to static electricity or other sources of noise.
• Locations subject to strong electromagnetic fields.
• Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity.
• Locations close to power supplies.
