AFETY RECAUTIONS
• Read this user's manual to make sure of correct operation before starting installation, wiring, operation,
maintenance, and inspection of the FC5A series MicroSmart PID modules.
• All MicroSmart modules are manufactured under IDEC's rigorous quality control system, but users must add a
backup or failsafe provision to the control system using the MicroSmart in applications where heavy damage or
personal injury may be caused in case the MicroSmart should fail.
• In this user's manual, safety precautions are categorized in order of importance from Warning to Caution.
Warning
• Turn off the power to the MicroSmart before starting installation, removal, wiring, maintenance, and inspection of
the MicroSmart. Failure to turn power off may cause electrical shocks or fire hazard.
• Special expertise is required to install, wire, program, and operate the MicroSmart. People without such expertise
must not use the MicroSmart.
• Emergency stop and interlocking circuits must be configured outside the MicroSmart. If such a circuit is
configured inside the MicroSmart, failure of the MicroSmart may cause a malfunction of the control system,
damage, or accidents.
• Install the MicroSmart according to the instructions described in this user's manual. Improper installation will
result in disattachment, failure, or malfunction of the MicroSmart.
Caution
• The MicroSmart is designed for installation in a cabinet. Do not install the MicroSmart outside a cabinet.
• Install the MicroSmart in environments described in this user's manual. If the MicroSmart is used in places where
the MicroSmart is subjected to high-temperature, high-humidity, condensation, corrosive gases, excessive
vibrations, and excessive shocks, then electrical shocks, fire hazard, or malfunction will result.
• The environment for using the MicroSmart is "Pollution degree 2." Use the MicroSmart in environments of pollution
degree 2 (according to IEC 60664-1).
• Prevent the MicroSmart from being dropped while moving or transporting the MicroSmart , otherwise damage or
malfunction of the MicroSmart will result.
• Prevent metal fragments and pieces of wire from dropping inside the MicroSmart housing. Put a cover on the
MicroSmart modules during installation and wiring. Ingress of such fragments and chips may cause fire hazard,
damage, or malfunction.
• Use a power supply matching the rated value. Use of an incorrect power supply may cause fire hazard.
• Use an IEC 60127-approved fuse on the power line outside the MicroSmart . This is required when equipment
containing the MicroSmart is destined for Europe.
• Use an IEC 60127-approved fuse on the output circuit. This is required when equipment containing the
MicroSmart is destined for Europe.
• Use an EU-approved circuit breaker. This is required when equipment containing the MicroSmart is destined for
Europe.
• Make sure of safety before starting and stopping the MicroSmart or when operating the MicroSmart to force
outputs on or off. Incorrect operation on the MicroSmart may cause machine damage or accidents.
