[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]
CAUTION
● Do not drop or apply shock to the battery to be installed in the module. Doing so may damage the
battery, causing the battery fluid to leak inside the battery. If the battery is dropped or any shock is
applied to it, dispose of it without using.
● Startup and maintenance of a control panel must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel
with knowledge of protection against electric shock. Lock the control panel so that only qualified
maintenance personnel can operate it.
● Before handling the module, touch a conducting object such as a grounded metal to discharge the
static electricity from the human body. Wearing a grounded antistatic wrist strap is recommended.
Failure to discharge the static electricity may cause the module to fail or malfunction.
● After unpacking the product, discharge the module to prevent it from being affected by static
electricity. Touching a conducting object such as a grounded metal while the module retains electricity
will cause a sudden discharge, which may result in failure. For how to eliminate static electricity, refer
to the following.
Antistatic Precautions Before Using MELSEC iQ-R Series Products (FA-A-0368)
● Use a clean and dry cloth to wipe off dirt on the module.
● Before testing the operation, set a low speed value for the speed limit parameter so that the operation
can be stopped immediately upon occurrence of a hazardous condition.
● Confirm and adjust the program and each parameter before operation. Unpredictable movements
may occur depending on the machine.
● When using the absolute position system function, on starting up, and when the module or absolute
position motor has been replaced, always perform a home position return.
● Before starting the operation, confirm the brake function.
● Do not perform a megger test (insulation resistance measurement) during inspection.
● After maintenance and inspections are completed, confirm that the position detection of the absolute
position detection function is correct.
● Lock the control panel and prevent access to those who are not certified to handle or install electric
equipment.
[Operating Precautions]
CAUTION
● When changing data and operating status, and modifying program of the running programmable
controller from an external device such as a personal computer connected to an intelligent function
module, read relevant manuals carefully and ensure the safety before operation. Incorrect change or
modification may cause system malfunction, damage to the machines, or accidents.
● Do not power off the programmable controller or reset the CPU module while the setting values in the
buffer memory are being written to the flash ROM in the module. Doing so will make the data in the
flash ROM and SD memory card undefined. The values need to be set in the buffer memory and
written to the flash ROM and SD memory card again. Doing so also can cause malfunction or failure
of the module.
● Note that when the reference axis speed is specified for interpolation operation, the speed of the
partner axis (2nd, 3rd, or 4th axis) may exceed the speed limit value.
● Do not go near the machine during test operations or during operations such as teaching. Doing so
may lead to injuries.
