4. General precautions
Always follow the precautions below. Incorrect handling could result in faults, injuries or electric shocks, etc.
(1) Items related to product and manual
For items described as "Restrictions" or "Usable State" in this manual, the instruction manual issued by
the machine tool builder takes precedence over this manual.
Items that are not described in this manual must be interpreted as "not possible".
This manual is written on the assumption that all the applicable functions are included.
Some of them, however, may not be available for your NC system.
Refer to the specifications issued by the machine tool builder before use.
Refer to the Instruction Manual issued by each machine tool builder for details on each machine tool.
Some screens and functions may differ depending on each NC system (or version), and some functions
may not be possible. Please confirm the specifications before starting to use.
Refer to "Smart safety observation" (BNP-C3072-022) for details about the connection with safety
observing I/O device.
To protect the availability, integrity and confidentiality of the NC system against cyber-attacks including
unauthorized access, denial-of-service (Dos) (*1) attack, and computer virus from external sources via a
network, take security measures such as firewall, VPN, and anti-virus software.
(*1) Denial-of-service (Dos) refers to a type of cyber-attack that disrupts services by overloading the system
or by exploiting a vulnerability of the system.
Mitsubishi Electric assumes no responsibility for any problems caused to the NC system by any type of
cyber-attacks including DoS attack, unauthorized access and computer virus.
(2) Transportation and installation
Correctly transport the products according to the mass.
Use motor's suspension bolts to transport the motor itself. Do not use it to transport the motor after
installation onto the machine.
Do not stack the products exceeding the indicated limit.
Do not hold the cables, shaft or encoder when transporting the motor.
Do not transport the controller or drive unit by suspending or holding the connected wires or cables.
Do not hold the front cover when transporting the unit, or the front cover could come off, causing the unit
to drop.
Install on a non-combustible place where the unit's or motor's mass can be withstood according to the
instruction manual.
The motor does not have a complete water-proof (oil-proof) structure. Do not allow oil or water to contact
or enter the motor. Prevent the cutting chips from being accumulated on the motor as they easily soak up
oil.
When installing the motor facing upwards, take measures on the machine side so that gear oil, etc., will not
enter the motor shaft.
Do not remove the encoder from the motor. (The encoder installation screw is treated with sealing.)
Do not allow foreign matters, especially, conductive foreign matters such as screws or metal chips, or
combustible foreign matters such as oil, to enter the controller, drive unit or motor. Failure to observe this
could result in rupture or damage.
Do not get on the product or place heavy objects on it.
Provide prescribed distance between the controller/drive unit and inner surface of the control panel/other
devices.
Do not install or operate the controller, drive unit or motor that is damaged or has missing parts.
