About this Manual:

This manual describes installation and operation of the CP-series Programmable Controllers (PLCs)
and includes the sections described below. The CP Series provides advanced package-type PLCs
based on OMRON's advanced control technologies and vast experience in automated control.
Please read this manual carefully and be sure you understand the information provided before
attempting to install or operate a CP-series PLC. Be sure to read the precautions provided in the fol-
lowing section.
This manual is intended for first-time users of the SYSMAC CP series. The basic use of the series is
explained based on SYSMAC CP1L.
Circuit configurations, wiring methods, and programs provided in this manual are given strictly as
examples. When constructing an actual system, check the specifications, performance, and safety of
each component by referring to the respective manuals.
Ladder programs in this manual are provided strictly as examples. When designing the actual circuits,
take adequate safety measures.
Precautions provide general precautions for using the Programmable Controller and related devices.
Section 1 introduces the types of CP1L, as well the part names.
Section 2 explains how to construct a CP1L system, using a shutter control system as an example.
Section 3 explains the how to install CP1L onto a DIN track, how to wire power supply and I/O lines,
and how to test operation.
Section 4 explains the basic functions of CX-Programmer creating the ladder program for the shutter
control system.
Section 5 describes how to transfer and debug programs.
The Appendices provide channel/relay numbers, instructions, inner workings of CP1L, and CP1L pro-
gramming examples.
