1 PRODUCT 1.5 Switches and LED indicators Discharge static electricity that has built up on your body before touching the Slave Unit. Otherwise, static electricity can cause dameges to the Slave Unit. CAUTION : (1) Various LED lamps are installed in front of station to aid visual varification of operational conditions. Each function is printed on the sheet made of resin.
2 CAUTION 2. CAUTION The product is rated for DC24V CLASS2 only and shall only be used at its specified power supply voltage. Before turning on or off the power, take a good look around and make sure it is safe to do so as the components in the system, including the Valve (cylinder), may move unexpectedly.
3 OPERATION 3. OPERATION Switches setting The switches are used for four different kinds of setup: setting the station number, setting the transfer rate, specifying whether to hold or clear the output during an error, and specifying the end station. Since different switches are used for different kinds of setup, you must correctly identify the switch to be used.

3 OPERATION 3) Other setups (SW4) Using this switch, specify whether to hold or clear the output when an error occurs and whether this slave station is the end station (station furthermost from the master station) or not. Position Switch Function Specifies whether to hold or clear the output when an error (bus line error,...
3 OPERATION Programming This slave station unit is seen as a 16-point output unit constituting a remote I/O station. (The unit monopolizes the position of a single station.) When creating programs, refer to the Mitsubishi Electric Corporation User’s Manual (CC-Link system master/local units). Functions particular to this slave station unit are the specification of the state of output during an error and the declaration of the end station.
4 INSTALLATION 4. INSTALLATION It is required to connect signal circuit with power line to make this model MN3/4G**R-T6G1 function. Erroneous connection causes not only malfunction but in some cases, vital transmission damage to this station including other related devices. Read and understand the content of each User’s manual for Sequencer and CC-Link system, product of MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC CO.
4 INSTALLATION 4.1 Specifications of network cable (Shielded twisted cable) The table below illustrates the twist pair cable recommended for use in the CC-Link system. The quality of data transfer in the CC-Link system is guaranteed only if you use the recommended cable.
4 INSTALLATION 4.2 Connecting and wiring to the network connector plug There are terminal blocks provided on the mounting device. Wiring connection to station is accomplished through these terminal blocks. Function of each terminal is printed on the face of station mounting device.

4 INSTALLATION 2) Wiring of network cable When connecting a twist pair cable to this slave station unit, connect the DA (blue), DB (white), and DG (yellow) wires in the cable to the DA, DB, and DG terminals respectively, and connect the shield jacket to the SLD terminal.
Page 29
4 INSTALLATION 3) Wiring of power cable The power circuit for the slave station unit (OPP3-1G) can be isolated from the power circuit for the solenoid valve system. Moreover, two separate power sources can be used to supply power independently to the slave station unit and the solenoid valve system. The illustrations below are examples of power supply to two or more slave stations (remote I/O units) from power source(s) at a single location.
5 MAINTENANCE 5. MAINTENANCE 5.1 Removing/Mounting of Slave station for valve The slave station unit OPP3-1G is normally secured by a retainer to the DIN rail (next to the solenoid valve manifold) and connected with the solenoid valve manifold by a connector (plug and socket). If you have to dismount the slave station unit from the DIN rail when you connect signal and power cables, for example, follow the procedure below: Slave station unit (OPP3-1G)

5 MAINTENANCE Troubleshooting Troubleshooting should address the entire system rather than a particular slave station. This slave station unit has its LED indicators similar to those provided on a Mitsubishi remote I/O station. Looking at these indicators and the indicators on the master station unit, you can determine the cause and take corrective action.
