POINTS OF CAUTION
■ CONFORMITY WITH EC DIRECTIVES
• The equipment must be mounted inside the instrument
panel of a metal enclosure.
• The actual installation environments such as panel con-
figurations, connected devices and connected wires may
affect the protection level of this unit when it is integrated
in a panel system. The user may have to review the CE
requirements in regard to the whole system and employ
additional protective measures to ensure CE conformity.
■ UNPLUGGING THE MODULE
Before you remove the module from its base or mount it,
turn off the power supply for safety.
■ ENVIRONMENT
• Indoor use
• When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the air,
install the unit inside proper housing with sufficient ven-
tilation.
• Do not install the unit where it is subjected to continuous
vibration. Do not subject the unit to physical impact.
• Environmental temperature must be within -10 to +55°C
(14 to 131°F) with relative humidity within 30 to 90% RH
in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.
■ WIRING
• Do not install cables (power supply, input and output)
close to noise sources (relay drive cable, high frequency
line, etc.).
• Do not bind these cables together with those in which
noises are present. Do not install them in the same duct.
■ AND ....
The unit is designed to function as soon as power is sup-
plied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is required for sat-
isfying complete performance described in the data sheet.
MODEL
INSTALLATION
Use the Installation Base Model: R3-BSx, or Model: R3-
BSWx for free I/O address capability.
Before mounting the Network Interface Module R3-GM1
onto the base, be sure to configure the module as explained
below.
■ DATA ALLOCATION
Use the side DIP SW1 to set the number of slots which the
module is assigned to.
See "TRANSMISSION DATA DESCRIPTIONS."
■ NODE ADDRESS & BAUD RATE
See "COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION."
■ NETWORK SLOTS ON THE BASE
I/O 1 I/O 2
With Model R3-BSx base, mount the I/O Modules from the
left end (I/O 1) to the right in order that the Network Mod-
ule assigns data areas from I/O 1.
Network Module(s) and Power Module are mounted basi-
cally at the right end though technically they could be
mounted in any position.
With Model R3-BSWx base, there is no limitation in mount-
ing positions as I/O address can be assigned freely to each
module using rotary switches equipped on the base.
It is available to assign the module to max. 8 slots. The as-
signed slots numbers can not be used again for the real I/O
modules which need to be mounted on the same base. Don't
set the interface module for more than 16 slots as it can not
read the data for more than 16 modules.
