    10.4 Mitsubishi support If you cannot remedy a malfunction using the information in this chapter, please contact your local Mitsubishi representative. Note When you send in a WS0-MPL0 or WS0-MPL1 memory plug for repair or analysis, it is returned in the state of delivery, i.e. with an empty configuration. Therefore save your configuration(s) to project files with the Setting and Monitoring Tool.
  • Page 92: Maintenance

    The following sections inform about regular tests and the exchange of MELSEC-WS modules. Do not try to dismantle, repair or modify the MELSEC-WS modules. This can lead to a loss of the safety function(s). In addition Mitsubishi accepts no claims for liability. 11.1 Regular inspection of the protective device by qualified safety personnel ...
