Cooling Factors and Installation
Keep the ambient temperature of the controller at 40°C or less.
Especially, keep the temperature around the battery at room temperature. (Approximately 20°C is the
recommended temperature.)
For the attachment of the unit, use the fixture holes on
the four corners or attach on the DIN rail. (Attachment
should be the same for the absolute battery box.)

Note 1 When the teaching pendant is not connected, S1 and S2 become short-circuited inside the controller.
Note 2 When the motor driving source is cut off externally, connect a contact such as a contactor to the wires between
MPISLOT* and MPOSLOT*.
Note 3 The rating for the emergency stop signal (EMG-) to turn ON/OFF at contact CR1 is 24V DC and 10mA.
Note 4 For CR1, select the one with coil current 0.1A or less.
Note 5 When supplying the power by turning on/off the 24V DC, keep the 0V being connected and have the +24V
supplied/disconnected (cut one side only).
Note 6 By having a disconnection between EMG+SLOT* and EMGINSLOT+, it is possible to have only the disconnected
slot number in emergency stop condition. (*:slot number)
