SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Read these precautions before using this product.)
Before using this product, please read this manual, the relevant manuals, and the safety standards carefully
and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly.
The precautions given in this manual are concerned with installation of this product and wiring with the
external application only.
For the safety precautions of the MELSEC-WS safety controller system, refer to the users manual for the
CPU module used.
In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: " WARNING" and " CAUTION".
Under some circumstances, failure to observe the precautions given under " CAUTION" may lead to
serious consequences.
Observe the precautions of both levels because they are important for personal and system safety.
Make sure that the end users read this manual and then keep the manual in a safe place for future
reference.
[Design Precautions]
WARNING
The CC-Link interface module is not suitable for operation on a safety fieldbus.
The CC-Link interface module only generates non-safety-related fieldbus data (status bytes) for control
and diagnostics purposes.
Do not use non-safe data from a CC-Link interface module for safety related applications.
With the CC-Link interface module it is possible to integrate non-safe data into the logic editor such
that the safety function of the MELSEC-WS safety controller is compromised. Never implement the
CC-Link interface module into a MELSEC-WS safety controller without having this danger checked by
a safety specialist.
2
CAUTION
Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power
cables. Keep a distance of 100 mm or more between them.
Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.
The MELSEC-WS safety controller fulfils the requirements of Class A (industrial applications) in
accordance with the "Interference emission" basic specifications.
The MELSEC-WS safety controller is therefore only suitable for use in an industrial environment and
not for private use.
[Installation Precautions]
CAUTION
Use the MELSEC-WS safety controller in an environment that meets the general specifications in the
users manual for the CPU module used. Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire, malfunction,
or damage to or deterioration of the product.
Latch the module onto the DIN rail. Incorrect mounting may cause malfunction, failure or drop of the
module.
To ensure full electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), the DIN mounting rail has to be connected to
functional earth (FE).
Ensure that the earthling contact is positioned correctly. The earthling spring contact of the module
must contact the DIN rail securely to allow electrical conductivity.
Additionally connect all network cable shields directly at the control cabinet entrance to a common FE
ground line.
Tighten the screw within the specified torque range.
Undertightening can cause drop of the screw, short circuit or malfunction.
Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction.
Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing the
module.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the product.
Do not directly touch any conductive part of the module.
Doing so can cause malfunction or failure of the module.
The MELSEC-WS safety controller is only suitable for mounting in a control cabinet with at least IP 54
degree of protection.
Failure to meet the installation method may cause the module to fail or malfunction due to the
deposition of dust or the adhesion of water.
3
CAUTION
Make sure that the connection of the CC-Link interface module cannot lead to hazardous
situations during installation.
Ensure that the connection of the CC-Link dedicated cables and power cables cannot lead to a
hazardous situation when implementing the unit on to the MELSEC-WS safety controller and CC-Link
network. Prevent unintended start-up of equipment during connection of a CC-Link interface module.
Failure to do so may cause the system to malfunction.
[Wiring Precautions]
CAUTION
Switch the entire machine/system off line.
The system could start up unexpectedly while you are connecting the devices.
Connectors for external devices must be crimped or pressed with the tool specified by the
manufacturer, or must be correctly soldered. Incomplete connections could result in short circuit, fire,
or malfunction.
Connect the connectors to the module securely.
Failure to do so may cause malfunction due to poor contact.
Place the cables in a duct or clamp them.
If not, dangling cable may swing or inadvertently be pulled, resulting in damage to the module or
cables or malfunction due to poor contact.
Tighten the terminal screw within the specified torque range.
Undertightening can cause short circuit or malfunction.
Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction.
When disconnecting the cable from the module, do not pull the cable by the cable part.
When disconnecting the cable with connector from the module, hold the connector part.
When disconnecting the cable connected to a terminal block, loosen the terminal screws first.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the module or cable or malfunction.
Prevent foreign matter such as dust or wire chips from entering the module.
Such foreign matter can cause a fire, failure, or malfunction.
Use dedicated cables as specified by the manufacturer for the CC-Link system. If a cable other than
the one specified by the manufacturer is used, the performance of the CC-Link system is not
guaranteed.
Also, follow the specifications shown in the Cable Wiring Manual from CC-Link Partner Association for
the overall cable distance and the station-to-station cable length. If the wiring does not meet the
specifications, accurate data transmission is not guaranteed.
Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power
cables. Failure to do so may result in malfunction due to noise.

Name Meaning Station number setting switches
A switch for configuring a station number for the module (factory default: 0) 1 to 64: Station number When the number other than 1 to 64 is configured, the MS LED flashes in red and the L RUN/L ERR. LED lights up in red. Example: Setting the station number 11
Terminal block SLD, DG, DB, DA
CC-Link dedicated cables are connected for data link. For wiring, see Section 4.3 and Section 4.4. The SLD terminal is internally connected to the earthing spring contact. (the connecting part to the DIN rail). This two-piece terminal block allows replacement of a failed module without disconnecting from the CC-Link network. (Before replacement, power off the module to be replaced.) For the crimp tools, see Section 7.4.

4.2 Mounting/Dismantling
This chapter describes the mounting of the CC-Link interface module.
Make sure that the connection of the CC-Link interface module cannot lead
to hazardous situations during installation!
Ensure that the connection of the CC-Link dedicated cables and power cables
cannot lead to a hazardous situation when implementing the unit on to the
MELSEC-WS safety controller and CC-Link network. Prevent unintended start-up
of equipment during connection of a CC-Link interface module. Failure to do so
may cause the system to malfunction.
4.2.1 Steps for mounting the modules
The MELSEC-WS safety controller is only suitable for mounting in a control
cabinet with at least IP 54 degree of protection.
Failure to meet the installation method may cause the module to fail or
malfunction due to the deposition of dust or the adhesion of water.
While supply voltage is applied, modules must not be plugged to nor be
removed from the MELSEC-WS safety controller.
To ensure full electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), the DIN mounting rail
must be connected to functional earth (FE). Additionally connect all network
cable shields directly at the control cabinet entrance to a common FE
ground line. In a MELSEC-WS safety controller, the WS0-CPU0 or WS0-CPU1 module is
positioned at the extreme left.
The two optional network modules follow directly to the right of the CPU module.
Connect further MELSEC-WS safety I/O modules (e.g. WS0-XTIO or WS0-XTDI)
onto the right side of the network modules and any additional safety relay output
modules (WS0-4RO) to the extreme right of the entire MELSEC-WS safety
controller.
Mount the modules in accordance with EN 50274.
The modules are located in a 22.5 mm wide modular system for 35 mm DIN rails
according to EN 60715.
Ensure that suitable ESD protective measures are also taken during mounting.
Otherwise the FLEXBUS+ bus may be damaged.
The connection between the modules is effected by means of the plug
connection integrated in the housing. Take into account that, when replacing a
module, the MELSEC-WS modules have to be pushed approx. 10 mm apart
before the corresponding module can be removed from the DIN rail.
Take suitable measures to ensure that foreign matter does not penetrate the
connector openings, in particular that of the memory plug.

Make sure that the voltage supply of the MELSEC-WS safety controller is
switched off.
Hang the device onto the DIN rail (1)).
Connect the CC-Link interface module directly onto the right side of the CPU module of the MELSEC-WS safety controller. Up to two network modules per
system are possible.
Ensure that the earthing spring contact is positioned correctly (2)). The earthing spring contact of the module must contact the DIN rail securely to allow
electrical conductivity.
Latch the module onto the DIN rail by pressing it lightly in the direction of the arrow (3)).
If there are several modules, slide the modules together individually in the
direction of the arrow until the side plug connection latches in.
Install the end clips on the right and left.
The following steps are necessary after mounting:
Complete the electrical connections (See Section 4.3.)
Configuration (See Section 4.5 and the Safety Controller Setting and Monitoring
Tool Operating Manual.)
Checking the installation (See the Safety Controller Users Manual.)

4.3 Electrical installation
Switch the entire machine/system off line!
The system could start up unexpectedly while you are connecting the devices.
The CC-Link interface module fulfills the EMC requirements in accordance with
the basic specification EN 61000-6-2 for industrial use.
To ensure full electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), the mounting rail has to be
connected to functional earth (FE).
The control cabinet or assembly casing of the MELSEC-WS safety controller
must comply at least with enclosure rating IP 54.
Mount the modules in accordance with EN 50274.
Electrical installation in accordance with EN 60204-1
The voltage supply of the devices must be capable of buffering brief mains
voltage failures of 20 ms as specified in EN 60204-1.
The voltage supply has to fulfill the regulations for extra-low voltages with safe
separation (SELV, PELV) in accordance with EN 60664 and DIN 50178
(equipment of electrical power installation with electronic devices).
Ensure that all the modules of the MELSEC-WS safety controller, the connected
protective devices as well as the voltage supplies are connected
