E5CN E5CN TROUBLESHOOTING When an error occurs, an error code will be displayed on the No. 1 display. Check the contents of an error and take appropriate countermeasures. No. 1 display Type of error Countermeasures Input error Check the wiring of inputs for miswiring, disconnections, short-circuits, and the input type.
• Group mounting is not possible in the vertical direction. (Maintain the specified mounting space between Controllers when they are group mounted.) To mount the E5CN so that it is waterproof, apply the waterproof seal to the E5CN. • When two or more E5CNs are mounted, make sure that the surrounding temperature does not exceed the allowable operating temperature, as specified in the specifications.
1. Insert the tools (see drawing above) into the slots (one on the top and one on the bottom) and release the hooks. 2. Push the adapter along the E5CN body from the terminals up to the panel and secure it temporarily.
RS-485 Do not connect anything. WIRING PRECAUTIONS • Separate input leads and power lines to protect the E5CN and its lines from external noise. • We recommend using solderless terminals when wiring the E5CN. • Tighten the terminal screws using a torque no greater than 0.78 N •...
