This section provides general precautions for using the NQ-Series Operator Interfaces (OIs), Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and related devices. The information contained in this section is important for the safe and reliable operation of the NQ-Series terminal. You must read this section and understand the information contained before attempting to set up or operate an NQ-Series terminal.
HMI and keep this manual close at hand for reference during operation. • The HMI is a general purpose product. It is a system component and is used in con- junction with other items of industrial equipment such as PLC's. Loop Controllers, Adjustable Speed Drives, etc.
Do not attempt to take any HMI apart or touch any internal parts while the power is being supplied. Doing so may result in electric shock. !WARNING Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify any HMI. Any attempt to do so may result in malfunction, fire, or electric shock. !WARNING Provide safety measures in external circuits, i.e., not in the HMI, in order to ensure...
Operating environment precautions Section 1-4 Operating environment precautions !Caution Do not operate the control system in the following locations. Doing so may result in malfunction, electric shock or burning: • Locations subject to direct sunlight. • Locations subject to temperatures or humidities outside the range specified in the specifications.
HMI. Not checking the program may result in an unexpected operation. !Caution Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to faulty operation of the HMI or the system, or could damage the HMI. Always read these precautions.
Page 12
Do not pull on the cables or bend the cables beyond their natural limit. Doing either of these may break the cables. • Do not place objects on top of the cables. Doing so may break the cables. • Use the dedicated connecting cables specified in operation manuals to connect the HMI.
NQ-Series should be installed as follows, for the complete configuration to meet the EC directives: 1 The units are designed for installation in panels. All units must be installed in control panels. 2 Use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies used for the communication power supply, internal circuit power supply, and the I/O power supplies.
