SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Always read these instructions before using this equipment.)

Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals introduced in this manual

carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly.

The instructions given in this manual are concerned with this product. For the safety instructions of the

programmable controller system, please read the CPU module user's manual.

In this manual, the safety instructions are ranked as "DANGER" and "CAUTION".

! DANGER

CAUTION!

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury.

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in medium or slight personal injury or physical damage.

Note that the ! CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to the circumstances.

Always follow the instructions of both levels because they are important to personal safety.

Please store this manual in a safe place and make it accessible when required. Always forward it to the

end user.

[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]

! DANGER

For details on the operating status of each station when a communication problem occurs in the

data link, see Chapter 6 of this manual.

When performing the control of the IBM PC/AT compatible PC in operation (changing data),

configure an interlock circuit in a user program so the safety of the overall system is always

maintained.

When performing other controls of the IBM PC/AT compatible PC in operation (changing

program and operation status (status control)), read this manual carefully and confirm if the

overall safety is maintained.

Especially, when this control is performed to a remote IBM PC/AT compatible PC from an

external device, problems that have occurred on the IBM PC/AT compatible PC side may not be

able to immediately be handled if there is a data communication error.

Define a troubleshooting agreement between external devices and the IBM PC/AT compatible

PC for data communication error occurrences, as well as construct an interlock circuit in the

user program.

Do not write data into the "system area" of the buffer memory of intelligent function modules.

Also, do not use any "prohibited to use" signals as an output signal to an intelligent function

module from the I/F board (A80BDE-J61BT11).

Writing data into the "system area" or outputting a signal for "prohibited to use" may cause a

PLC system malfunction.

A - 2

[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]

! DANGER

A failure in the I/F board may cause I/O to change to on status or off status.

Establish a circuit to be observed externally for those I/O signals that may threaten to cause

serious accident.

! CAUTION

Do not bunch the control wires or communication cables with the main circuit or power wires, or

install them close to each other.

They should be installed 100mm (3.94 in.) or more from each other.

Not doing so could result in noise that may cause malfunction.

[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS]

! CAUTION

Use the I/F board in an environment that meets the general specifications contained in this

user's manual.

Using this I/F board in an environment outside the range of the general specifications may

cause electric shock, fire, malfunction, and damage to or deterioration of the product.

Do not directly touch the conductive area or electronic components of the I/F board.

Doing so may cause malfunction or failure in the I/F board.

Fix the I/F board securely with the installation screws and tighten the installation screws within

the specified torque range.

If the screws are loose, it may cause short circuits or malfunction.

If the screws are tightened too much, it may cause damage to the screws resulting in short

circuits or malfunction.

[WIRING PRECAUTIONS]

! CAUTION Switch all phases of the external power supply off when installing or placing wiring.

Not doing so may cause electric shock, damage to the product or malfunction.

When turning on the power and operating the module after installation and wiring are completed,

always attach the terminal cover that comes with the product.

There is a risk of electric shock if the terminal cover is not attached.

Always ground the FG terminal on the IBM PC/AT compatible PC side using D type grounding

(Class 3 grounding) or higher specifically for the IBM PC/AT compatible PC.

There is a risk of malfunction.

If a malfunction occurs even when the IBM PC/AT compatible PC is grounded, ground both the

FG terminal for the IBM PC/AT compatible PC and the SLD terminal for the I/F board.

A - 3

[WIRING PRECAUTIONS]

! CAUTION

Tighten the terminal screws within the range of specified torque.

If the terminal screws are loose, it may cause short circuits or malfunction.

If the terminal screws are tightened too much, it may cause damage to the screw and/or the I/F

board, resulting in short circuits or malfunction.

Be careful not to let foreign objects such as swarf or wire chips get inside the I/F board.

They may cause fires, failure or malfunction.

Be sure to fix communication cables or power cables leading from the I/F board by placing them

in the duct or clamping them.

Cables not placed in the duct or without clamping may hang or shift, allowing them to be

accidentally pulled, which may cause damage to the I/F board and cable or malfunction due to

bad cable contacts.

When removing the communication cable or power supply cables from the I/F board, do not pull

the cable.

First loosen the screws where the cable is connected to the I/F board and then remove the

cable.

Pulling the cable that is connected to the I/F board may cause damage to the I/F board and

cable or malfunction due to bad cable contacts.

[START UP AND MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS]

! CAUTION

Do not disassemble or modify each module.

Doing so could cause failure, malfunction, injury or fire.

Switch all phases of the external power supply off when mounting or removing the I/F board.

Not doing so may cause failure or malfunction of the I/F board.

Do not touch the terminal while the power is on.

Doing so may cause malfunction.

Switch all phases of the external power supply off when cleaning or retightening terminal screws

or module installing screws.

Not doing so may cause failure or malfunction of the I/F board.

If the screws are loose, it may cause the short circuits or malfunction.

If the screws are tightened too much, it may cause damages to the screws and/or the I/F board,

resulting in short circuits or malfunction.

[DISPOSAL PRECAUTIONS]

! CAUTION

When disposing of this product, treat it as industrial waste.

Usage Precautions

(1) When using the A80BDE-J61BT11 as a master board

Use the Windows NT 4.0 operating system when using the A80BDE-J61BT11 as a

master board.

(2) When using the A80BDE-J61BT11 as a standby master station

Use the A80BDE-J61BT11 as a master station when using the A80BDE-J61BT11

as a standby master station.

(3) When using Windows NT 4.0

When using Windows NT 4.0, the installation and use of this product are possible

only with Administrator privilege.

(4) Multi-thread communication

Multi-thread communication is not supported.

(5) Installation

When using the A80BDE-J61BT11 with an IBM PC/AT compatible PC that uses the

A80BDE-J61BT13, uninstall SWnDNF-CCLINK provided with the A80BDE-

J61BT13 first, and then install the SW3DNF-CCLINK provided with the A80BDE-

J61BT11.

(6) Overwrite installation

When performing an overwrite installation, install the program in the same folder in

which the previous program is installed.

(7) Start menu

After the utility software is uninstalled, the program name may still be displayed in

the Start menu.

In this case, restart the IBM PC/AT compatible PC.

(8) Software versions of the CC-Link master and local modules

Use software of version "N" or later for the CC-Link master and local modules.

A module running software version "M" or earlier will not operate properly.

(9) Multiprocessor-based IBM PC/AT compatible PCs

Multiprocessor-based IBM PC/AT compatible PCs cannot be used because the

driver does not support multiprocessor-based PCs.
