  • Page 15: Operating Environment Precautions

    Operating Environment Precautions • The PLC will turn OFF all outputs when its self-diagnosis function detects any error or when a severe failure alarm (FALS) instruction is executed. Unexpected operation, however, may still occur for errors in the I/O con- trol section, errors in I/O memory, and other errors that cannot be detected by the self-diagnosis function.
  • Page 16 Operating Environment Precautions • Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity. • Locations close to power supplies. !Caution The operating environment of the Controller Link Support Board for PCI Bus or the computer can have a large effect on the longevity and reliability of the system.

    Application Precautions Application Precautions Observe the following precautions when using the Controller Link Support Board for PCI Bus or the computer into which it is installed. Note Refer also to 1-4 Applications Precautions for further information and addi- tional precautions. !WARNING Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to serious or possibly fatal injury.

  • Page 18: Conformance To Ec Directives

    Applicable Directives EMC Directives OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or machines. The actual products have been checked for conformity to EMC standards (see the following note).

  • Page 19: Applicable Directives

    3. For the Controller Link Support Boards, the backup power supply that is used may affect compliance for surge immunity (IEC61000-4-5) even though common immunity (EN61000-6-2) standards for EMS are met. Ei- ther use the recommended OMRON Power Supply (S82K Series) or take countermeasures for surge on the primary side.

  • Page 27 Overview Section 1-1 Transmission Path In Token Ring Mode in an Optical Ring System (H-PCF cable or GI cable), Duplication data transmission will be unaffected even by a cable or connector break at one location in the ring connection. With the optical cable wired in a ring shape, a break at one point will simply cause the transmission to be routed on the other path.
  • Page 28 Overview Section 1-1 Features and Functions of Version-1 and CLK23 Models The following features and functions apply to the CS1W-CLK23, CS1W- CLK21-V1, CJ1W-CLK23, and CJ1W-CLK21-V1 Controller Link Units and the 3G8F7-CLK23-E and 3G8F7-CLK21-EV1 Controller Link Support Board only. Up to 62 nodes can be connected. Overview When a CS1W-RPT01 Repeater Unit is used, the maximum number of nodes that can be used in the network increases to 62.
