SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
(Read these precautions before using this product.)
Before using this product, please read this manual and the relevant manuals carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle
the product correctly. If products are used in a different way from that specified by manufacturers, the protection function of
the products may not work properly.
The precautions given in this manual are concerned with this product only. For the safety precautions of the programmable
controller system, refer to the MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual.
In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: " WARNING" and " CAUTION".
1
[Design Precautions]
WARNING
● Configure safety circuits external to the programmable controller to ensure that the entire system
operates safely even when a fault occurs in the external power supply or the programmable controller.
Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or malfunction.
(1) Emergency stop circuits, protection circuits, and protective interlock circuits for conflicting
operations (such as forward/reverse rotations or upper/lower limit positioning) must be configured
external to the programmable controller.
(2) When the programmable controller detects an abnormal condition, it stops the operation and all
outputs are:
• Turned off if the overcurrent or overvoltage protection of the power supply module is activated.
• Held or turned off according to the parameter setting if the self-diagnostic function of the CPU
module detects an error such as a watchdog timer error.
(3) All outputs may be turned on if an error occurs in a part, such as an I/O control part, where the
CPU module cannot detect any error. To ensure safety operation in such a case, provide a safety
mechanism or a fail-safe circuit external to the programmable controller. For a fail-safe circuit
example, refer to "General Safety Requirements" in the MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration
Manual.
(4) Outputs may remain on or off due to a failure of a component such as a relay and transistor in an
output circuit. Configure an external circuit for monitoring output signals that could cause a
serious accident.
● In an output circuit, when a load current exceeding the rated current or an overcurrent caused by a
load short-circuit flows for a long time, it may cause smoke and fire. To prevent this, configure an
external safety circuit, such as a fuse.
● Configure a circuit so that the programmable controller is turned on first and then the external power
supply. If the external power supply is turned on first, an accident may occur due to an incorrect output
or malfunction.
● Configure a circuit so that the external power supply is turned off first and then the programmable
controller. If the programmable controller is turned off first, an accident may occur due to an incorrect
output or malfunction.
● For the operating status of each station after a communication failure, refer to manuals for the network
used. For the manuals, please consult your local Mitsubishi representative. Incorrect output or
malfunction due to a communication failure may result in an accident.
● When connecting an external device with a CPU module or intelligent function module to modify data
of a running programmable controller, configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the
entire system will always operate safely. For other forms of control (such as program modification,
parameter change, forced output, or operating status change) of a running programmable controller,
read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure that the operation is safe before proceeding. Improper
operation may damage machines or cause accidents. When a Safety CPU is used, data cannot be
modified while the Safety CPU is in SAFETY MODE.
● Especially, when a remote programmable controller is controlled by an external device, immediate
action cannot be taken if a problem occurs in the programmable controller due to a communication
failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the program, and determine corrective actions
to be taken between the external device and CPU module in case of a communication failure.
2
[Design Precautions]
WARNING
● Do not write any data to the "system area" and "write-protect area" of the buffer memory in the
module. Also, do not use any "use prohibited" signals as an output signal from the CPU module to
each module. Doing so may cause malfunction of the programmable controller system. For the
"system area", "write-protect area", and the "use prohibited" signals, refer to the user's manual for the
module used. For areas used for safety communications, they are protected from being written by
users, and thus safety communications failure caused by data writing does not occur.
● If a communication cable is disconnected, the network may be unstable, resulting in a communication
failure of multiple stations. Configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire
system will always operate safely even if communications fail. Incorrect output or malfunction due to a
communication failure may result in an accident. When safety communications are used, an interlock
by the safety station interlock function protects the system from an incorrect output or malfunction.
[Design Precautions]
CAUTION
● Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power
cables. Doing so may result in malfunction due to electromagnetic interference. Keep a distance of
100mm or more between those cables.
● During control of an inductive load such as a lamp, heater, or solenoid valve, a large current
(approximately ten times greater than normal) may flow when the output is turned from off to on.
Therefore, use a module that has a sufficient current rating.
● After the CPU module is powered on or is reset, the time taken to enter the RUN status varies
depending on the system configuration, parameter settings, and/or program size. Design circuits so
that the entire system will always operate safely, regardless of the time.
● Do not power off the programmable controller or reset the CPU module while the settings are being
written. Doing so will make the data in the flash ROM and SD memory card undefined. The values
need to be set in the buffer memory and written to the flash ROM and SD memory card again. Doing
so also may cause malfunction or failure of the module.
● When changing the operating status of the CPU module from external devices (such as the remote
RUN/STOP functions), select "Do Not Open by Program" for "Opening Method" of "Module
Parameter". If "Open by Program" is selected, an execution of the remote STOP function causes the
communication line to close. Consequently, the CPU module cannot reopen the line, and external
devices cannot execute the remote RUN function.
[Security Precautions]
WARNING
● To maintain the security (confidentiality, integrity, and availability) of the programmable controller and
the system against unauthorized access, denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, computer viruses, and other
cyberattacks from external devices via the network, take appropriate measures such as firewalls,
virtual private networks (VPNs), and antivirus solutions.

[Installation Precautions]
WARNING
● 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 electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction.
[Installation Precautions]
CAUTION
● Use the programmable controller in an environment that meets the general specifications in the
MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual. Failure to do so may result in electric shock, fire,
malfunction, or damage to or deterioration of the product.
● To mount a module, place the concave part(s) located at the bottom onto the guide(s) of the base unit,
and push in the module until the hook(s) located at the top snaps into place. Incorrect interconnection
may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the module.
● To mount a module with no module fixing hook, place the concave part(s) located at the bottom onto
the guide(s) of the base unit, push in the module, and fix it with screw(s). Incorrect interconnection
may cause malfunction, failure, or drop of the module.
● When using the programmable controller in an environment of frequent vibrations, fix the module with
a screw.
● Tighten the screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the
component or wire, short circuit, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module,
resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction. For the specified torque range, refer to the MELSEC iQ-
R Module Configuration Manual.
● When using an extension cable, connect it to the extension cable connector of the base unit securely.
Check the connection for looseness. Poor contact may cause malfunction.
● When using an SD memory card, fully insert it into the SD memory card slot. Check that it is inserted
completely. Poor contact may cause malfunction.
● Securely insert an extended SRAM cassette or a battery-less option cassette into the cassette
connector of the CPU module. After insertion, close the cassette cover and check that the cassette is
inserted completely. Poor contact may cause malfunction.
● Beware that the module could be very hot while power is on and immediately after power-off.
● Do not directly touch any conductive parts and electronic components of the module, SD memory
card, extended SRAM cassette, battery-less option cassette, or connector. Doing so can cause
malfunction or failure of the module.
[Wiring Precautions]
WARNING
● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before installation and wiring.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction.
● After installation and wiring, attach a blank cover module (RG60) to each empty slot before powering
on the system for operation. Also, attach an extension connector protective cover*1 to each unused
extension cable connector as necessary. Directly touching any conductive parts of the connectors
while power is on may result in electric shock.
*1 For details, please consult your local Mitsubishi Electric representative.
4
[Wiring Precautions]
CAUTION
● Individually ground the FG and LG terminals of the programmable controller with a ground resistance
of 100 ohms or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction.
● Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them within the specified torque range. If any spade
solderless terminal is used, it may be disconnected when the terminal screw comes loose, resulting in
failure.
● Check the rated voltage and signal layout before wiring to the module, and connect the cables
correctly. Connecting a power supply with a different voltage rating or incorrect wiring may cause fire
or failure.
● Connectors for external devices must be crimped or pressed with the tool specified by the
manufacturer, or must be correctly soldered. Incomplete connections may cause short circuit, fire, or
malfunction.
● Securely connect the connector to the module. Poor contact may cause malfunction.
● Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power
cables. Doing so may result in malfunction due to noise. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between
those cables.
● Place the cables in a duct or clamp them. If not, dangling cables may swing or inadvertently be pulled,
resulting in malfunction or damage to modules or cables.
In addition, the weight of the cables may put stress on modules in an environment of strong vibrations
and shocks.
Do not clamp the extension cables with the jacket stripped. Doing so may change the characteristics
of the cables, resulting in malfunction.
● Check the interface type and correctly connect the cable. Incorrect wiring (connecting the cable to an
incorrect interface) may cause failure of the module and external device.
● Tighten the terminal screws or connector screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening
can cause drop of the screw, short circuit, fire, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw
and/or module, resulting in drop, short circuit, fire, or malfunction.
● When disconnecting the cable from the module, do not pull the cable by the cable part. For the cable
with connector, hold the connector part of the cable. For the cable connected to the terminal block,
loosen the terminal screw. Pulling the cable connected to the module may result in malfunction or
damage to the module or cable.
● Prevent foreign matter such as dust or wire chips from entering the module. Such foreign matter can
cause a fire, failure, or malfunction.
● When a protective film is attached to the top of the module, remove it before system operation. If not,
inadequate heat dissipation of the module may cause a fire, failure, or malfunction.
5
[Wiring Precautions]
CAUTION
● Programmable controllers must be installed in control panels. Connect the main power supply to the
power supply module in the control panel through a relay terminal block. Wiring and replacement of a
power supply module must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of
protection against electric shock. For wiring, refer to the MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual.
● For Ethernet cables to be used in the system, select the ones that meet the specifications in the user's
manual for the module used. If not, normal data transmission is not guaranteed.
6
[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]
CAUTION
● When connecting an external device with a CPU module or intelligent function module to modify data
of a running programmable controller, configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the
entire system will always operate safely. For other forms of control (such as program modification,
parameter change, forced output, or operating status change) of a running programmable controller,
read the relevant manuals carefully and ensure that the operation is safe before proceeding. Improper
operation may damage machines or cause accidents.
● Especially, when a remote programmable controller is controlled by an external device, immediate
action cannot be taken if a problem occurs in the programmable controller due to a communication
failure. To prevent this, configure an interlock circuit in the program, and determine corrective actions
to be taken between the external device and CPU module in case of a communication failure.
● Do not disassemble or modify the modules. Doing so may cause failure, malfunction, injury, or a fire.
● Use any radio communication device such as a cellular phone or PHS (Personal Handy-phone
System) more than 25cm away in all directions from the programmable controller. Failure to do so
may cause malfunction.
● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before mounting or removing the
module. Failure to do so may cause the module to fail or malfunction.
● Tighten the screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause drop of the
component or wire, short circuit, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module,
resulting in drop, short circuit, or malfunction.
● After the first use of the product, do not perform each of the following operations more than 50 times
(IEC 61131-2/JIS B 3502 compliant).
Exceeding the limit may cause malfunction.
• Mounting/removing the module to/from the base unit

[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]
CAUTION
● Before handling the module, touch a conducting object such as a grounded metal to discharge the
static electricity from the human body. Wearing a grounded antistatic wrist strap is recommended.
Failure to discharge the static electricity may cause the module to fail or malfunction.
● After unpacking, eliminate static electricity from the module to prevent electrostatic discharge from
affecting the module. If an electrostatically charged module comes in contact with a grounded metal
object, a sudden electrostatic discharge of the module may cause failure.
For details on how to eliminate static electricity from the module, refer to the following.
Antistatic Precautions Before Using MELSEC iQ-R Series Products (FA-A-0368)
● Use a clean and dry cloth to wipe off dirt on the module.
[Operating Precautions]
CAUTION
● When changing data and operating status, and modifying program of the running programmable
controller from an external device such as a personal computer connected to an intelligent function
module, read relevant manuals carefully and ensure the safety before operation. Incorrect change or
modification may cause system malfunction, damage to the machines, or accidents.
● Do not power off the programmable controller or reset the CPU module while the setting values in the
buffer memory are being written to the flash ROM in the module. Doing so will make the data in the
flash ROM and SD memory card undefined. The values need to be set in the buffer memory and
written to the flash ROM and SD memory card again. Doing so can cause malfunction or failure of the
module.

■Certificate expiration date
A certificate has its own expiration date. If a certificate set for an OPC UA server or OPC UA client expires in OPC UA
communication, the communication stops. To prevent this, it is required to periodically check the certificate expiration date
and update it.
When using a server certificate generated by this product
A certificate is valid for five years. 2
The procedure for updating a certificate is as follows:
2. Delete the server certificate in the "Manage Application Certificate" screen of the configuration tool.
3. Stop then restart the operation of an OPC UA server module by any of the following to regenerate the server certificate.
• Power OFF and ON
• [Online] [Update setting of OPC UA Server Module]
• [Online] [Stop the OPC UA Server Module]/[Restart the OPC UA Server Module]
4. Replace the server certificate stored in the trust list of an OPC UA client with the regenerated one.
Even when not deleting the server certificate, it is automatically regenerated when performing either of the
following operations. The server certificate stored in the trust list of an OPC UA client must be replaced with
the regenerated one.
• Perform step 3 above after the server certificate expires.
• Perform step 3 above after changing the IP address of the Ethernet port (CH1).

6 WIRING
This chapter shows the method for connecting an Ethernet cable to an OPC UA server module.
For connectable Ethernet cables, refer to the following:
Page 55 Ethernet (twisted pair) cable (sold separately)
Connection procedure
1. Check the insertion direction, and insert an Ethernet cable into an Ethernet port of an OPC UA server module until it
clicks.
3. Check the SPEED LED lighting status of the Ethernet port connected with the Ethernet cable. (Page 15 PART
NAMES)
6
• The time required from when an Ethernet cable is connected to when the SPEED LED turns ON may vary.
Normally, it turns ON in a few seconds. However, it may take longer because the linking-up processing is
repeated due to the device condition on the line.
• When the SPEED LED does not turn ON, check if the connected Ethernet cable has any failure.
• The SPEED LED turns OFF when connecting with an Ethernet device on the network the data transmission
speed of which is 10 Mbps. Check the communication status by performing the ping test, etc.
Disconnection procedure
Pull out the Ethernet cable while pinching a clip on the connector.
6 WIRING
6.1 Wiring of an Ethernet Cable 57
6.2 Wiring Precautions
• To establish a reliable system and fully use the functions of a module, a wiring that does not easily receive the effects of
noise is required.
• Sufficient safety measures must be taken when constructing the IEEE802.3 1000BASE-T/100BASE-TX/10BASE-T
networks.
Consult a specialist when handling the terminal processing of connection cable, installing trunk cables, etc.
• Use a cable compliant with IEEE802.3 1000BASE-T/100BASE-TX/10BASE-T standards. (Page 55 Ethernet (twisted
pair) cable (sold separately))
• For the connection on the target device side, check the specifications of the target device in advance.
• Place an Ethernet cable in a duct or clamp it.
Otherwise, the dangling cable may swing or inadvertently be pulled. It may cause a module or the cable to damage or
malfunction due to poor contact.
• Protect the core wire in the connector of a cable or the port of a module to prevent touching by hand and sticking dirt or
dust.
If any oil from your hand, dirt or dust sticks the core wire, it may increase the transmission loss and fail a data link.
• Check if an Ethernet cable used is disconnected, a short-circuit is generated, and the connector is properly connected.
• Do not use an Ethernet cable with a broken clip.
Doing so may cause the unplugged cable or malfunction.
• Hold the connector of an Ethernet cable when connecting or disconnecting it.
If the cable is pulled while being connected to a module, it may cause the module or Ethernet cable to damage or
malfunction due to poor contact.
• Attach the provided connector cover to protect an unused Ethernet port from dirt and dust.
• The maximum segment length of an Ethernet cable is 100 m. However, the length may be shorter depending on the use
environment of the cable. For details, contact the manufacturer of the cable used.
• The bend radius of an Ethernet cable is limited. For details, check the specifications of the Ethernet cable used.
