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.
The precautions given in this manual are concerned with this product only. For the safety precautions of the programmable
controller system, refer to the user's manual for the CPU module used.
In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: " WARNING" and " CAUTION".

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in

Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in


CAUTION minor or moderate injury or property damage.

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
● In the case of a communication failure in the network, data in the master/local module are held. Check
Data link status (each station) (SW00B0 to SW00B7) and configure an interlock circuit in the program
to ensure that the entire system will operate safely.
● When the module is disconnected due to a communication failure in the network or the CPU module is
in the STOP status, all outputs are held or turned off according to the parameter setting.
Configure an interlock circuit in the program to ensure that the entire system will always operate
safely even in such a case. Failure to do so may result in an accident due to an incorrect output or
malfunction.
● Outputs may remain on or off due to a failure of the module. Configure an external circuit for
monitoring output signals that could cause a serious accident.
● Do not use any "use prohibited" signals as a remote input or output signal. These signals are reserved
for system use. Do not write any data to the "use prohibited" area in the remote register or the remote
buffer memory. If these operations are performed, correct operation of the module cannot be
guaranteed.

[Design Precautions]
CAUTION
● Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power
cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction
due to noise.
● 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.

[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 module in an environment that meets the general specifications in this manual. Failure to do
so may result in electric shock, fire, malfunction, or damage to or deterioration of the product.
● Do not directly touch any conductive parts and electronic components of the module. Doing so can
cause malfunction or failure of the module.
● Securely connect the cable connectors. Poor contact may cause malfunction
● After the first use of the product, do not connect/disconnect the connector more than 50 times (IEC
61131-2/JIS B 3502 compliant). Exceeding the limit may cause malfunction.

[Wiring Precautions]
WARNING
● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before wiring. Failure to do so may
result in electric shock or cause the module to fail or malfunction.

2
[Wiring Precautions]
CAUTION
● Individually ground the FG terminal of the programmable controller with a ground resistance of 100
ohms or less. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or malfunction.
● Check the rated voltage and terminal 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 a fire
or failure.
● Tighten the terminal block screws within the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause short
circuit, fire, or malfunction. Overtightening can damage the screw and/or module, resulting in drop,
short circuit, fire, 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.
● 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.
● Do not install the control lines or communication cables together with the main circuit lines or power
cables. Keep a distance of 100mm or more between them. Failure to do so may result in malfunction
due to noise.
● 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.
● When an overcurrent caused by a failure of an external device or a programmable controller flows for
a long time, it may cause smoke and fire. To prevent this, configure external safety circuits, such as
fuses, for the module power supply and external power supply.
● Mitsubishi programmable controllers must be installed in control panels. Wiring and replacement of a
module must be performed by qualified maintenance personnel with knowledge of protection against
electric shock. For wiring methods, refer to "INSTALLATION AND WIRING" in this manual for the
module.
● Do not connect an output device of an SIO device to the channel set to IO-Link mode. Failure to do so
may cause malfunction.

[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]


WARNING
● Do not touch any terminal while power is on. Doing so will cause electric shock or malfunction.
● Shut off the external power supply (all phases) used in the system before cleaning the module or
retightening the terminal block screws and connector screws. Failure to do so may cause the module
to fail or malfunction.

[Startup and Maintenance Precautions]
CAUTION
● Do not disassemble or modify the modules. Doing so may cause failure, malfunction, injury, or a fire.
● Do not drop or apply strong shock to the module. Doing so may damage the module.
● 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.
● After the first use of the product, do not mount/remove the module more than 50 times (IEC 61131-2/
JIS B 3502 compliant). Exceeding the limit may cause malfunction.

*4 The time taken for data link establishment with the master station at power-on is not included.
*5 The module operation start time written is a rough standard. The time depends on the response performance and data storage size of
the IO-Link device. In addition, because the start processing is performed for each channel, it takes longer time to start operation of the
module as the number of channels of which operation mode is set to IO-Link mode increases.

This section describes the installation and wiring of the IO-Link module.

5.1 Before Using the I/O Link Module

Precautions when using SIO (sink input) mode


■Measures against back EMF
When connecting an inductive load, connect a diode in parallel with the load. Use the diode that satisfies the following
conditions:
• A reverse breakdown voltage is ten times as high as the circuit voltage or more.
• A forward current is twice as high as the load current or more.

Precautions when using SIO (source output) mode


■Maximum switching frequency when L load is driven
The maximum switching frequency imposes a limit on the use; an ON state or an OFF state must not be changed without an
interval of at least one second.

■Load to be connected
When connecting a counter or timer utilizing a DC/DC converter as a load of the IO-Link module, select an IO-Link module
whose maximum load current is higher than the inrush current of a load to be connected. If the selection is based on the
average current of a load to be connected, an inrush current flows cyclically from the load while the IO-Link module is in an
ON state or in operation, which can cause failure of the module. If it is necessary to select a module on the basis of the
average current of a load to be connected, to alleviate the effect of the inrush current, take any of the following corrective
actions:
• Connecting a resistor in series with the load

■About element protection of the IO-Link module


If excessive noise affects the terminals of the IO-Link module, the output may be turned on to help the protection of the output
element. Adjust the voltage between terminals of the IO-Link module to fall within the operating load voltage range by taking
measures such as the following:
• To use an inductive load such as a relay, a surge suppressor is required on the load side as well. Take appropriate
measures, referring to the measures against back EMF as a guide.
• To prevent excessive noise, avoid installing power cables together with I/O cables.

5 INSTALLATION AND WIRING


28 5.1 Before Using the I/O Link Module
5.2 Setting Switch
Setting station number setting switches

Setting procedure
Set the station number using the rotary switches on the front of the IO-Link module. The set value of the station number
becomes valid when the module is powered on. Thus, set the station number while the module power is off.
• The hundreds and tens places of the station number are set with 10.
• The ones place of the station number is set with 1.

To set the station number setting switches, use a flathead screwdriver with a tip width of 3.5mm or less.

Ex. 5
To set the station number to 115, set the switches as shown below.

Setting range
Set the station number from 1 to 120. Setting the value other than 1 to 120 causes a communication error and the D LINK
LED flashes.

Do not set a station number duplicated with other station numbers. If the station number is duplicated, a
communication error occurs and the D LINK LED does not turn on.

5 INSTALLATION AND WIRING


5.2 Setting Switch 29
Function setting switch setting
Enable or disable the fast link-up function using the function setting switches on the front of the IO-Link module. The setting
made by the function setting switches becomes valid when the module is powered on. Thus, set these switches while the
module power is off.
For details on the fast link-up function, refer to the following.
Page 91 Fast link-up function

2 Function setting switch 2 PORT2 fast link-up function Enables or disables the fast link-up function of PORT2.
(F LINK P2) • On: Enable
• Off: Disable
3  Use prohibited Always set to Off.
4

• To set the function setting switches, use a flathead screwdriver with a tip width of 0.9mm or less.
• Do not change the function setting switch while the module is powered on. Changing the function setting
switch while the module is powered on causes a minor error and flashes the ERR. LED. Returning the
function setting switch to the previous setting eliminates the error and turns off the ERR. LED.

7 FUNCTIONS
7.1 IO-Link Master Functions 77
Bit segment function
This function segments input process data using the bit count set for each channel.
The bit segment function can be used to segment continuous input process data into data units.
This function eliminates the necessity to perform tasks such as using a program to extract specified bits.

Description
This function segments input process data into bits.
Number of Slicings is the number of times input process data is to be segmented. If not using the bit segment function, select
0.
Set the bit length and bit offset of the input process data to be segmented in Bit length and Bit offset. Input process data is
segmented from the specified bit offset position for the specified number of bits.

The bit segment function assigns the input process data from the IO-Link device to CH Input process data
(RWr4 to RWr83) in the order set in "Bit Slicing Setting" (starting from No.1).
0 is stored for CH Input process data (RWr4 to RWr83) that do not support the value set in "Bit Slicing
Setting".

Ex.
For bit segmenting of alarm, parameter, and measured value of the input process data from the IO-Link device connected to
CH1
Set the bit offset with the most significant bit (b7) of byte0 as offset 0.
• Alarm: Data of Bit offset = 3, Bit length = 1
• Parameter: Data of Bit offset = 4, Bit length = 4 bits
• Measured value: Data of Bit offset = 8, Bit length = 16 bits

Precautions
• The bit offset or bit length values exceeding the setting of "Number of Slicings" are ignored.
• When the bit length is set to 0, 0 is stored in all bits of the corresponding CH Input process data (RWr4 to RWr83).
• Input data masking of bit-segmented input process data and the bit segmenting of input data masking results are not
possible.
• If the specified bit offset and bit length exceed the input process data, any excess bits are ignored.

Ex.
When input process data is 32 bits, the bit offset is set to 30, and the bit length is set to 5 7
The input process data is segmented with the bit offset 30 and the bit length 2.

Operation)

■Setting
Enable the fast link-up function for the ports to be connected each other. If a port where the fast link-up function is enabled is
connected with a port where the fast link-up function is not supported or disabled, link-up will not performed.

■Installation and configuration


• Incorporate a master module and an IO-Link module in the robot-side system. Disable the fast link-up function for the port
of the IO-Link module that is connected to the master module.
• Disable the fast link-up function for PORT1 of the IO-Link module in the robot-side system, and connect it with the master
module. Enable the fast link-up function for PORT2 of the IO-Link module in the robot-side system, and connect it with
PORT1 of the IO-Link module in the tool-side system. For any other connection, it may take longer time to establish data
link.
• Connect PORT1 and PORT2 of the modules where data link is established using the fast link-up function with cables. Even
if the fast link-up function is enabled, link-up will not be performed when PORT1 is connected to PORT1 or PORT2 is
connected to PORT2.

■Operation
• Keep the ON state of the master module and IO-Link module in the robot-side system during operation. In the robot-side
system, the master module is connected with the IO-Link module via a port where the fast link-up function is disabled, and
thus the time taken to establish data link after power-on will not be shortened. 7
• To establish data link in a short time, simultaneously power on all of the IO-Link modules in the tool-side system after
switching a tool to a different one. If the IO-Link modules are started up at the different timing, it may take longer time to
establish data link.
• Connect to a tool (cable connection and power-on) in one second or longer after the master station detects a disconnection
of a tool previously used. If a tool is connected before the detection of a disconnection or within one second after the
detection, it may take longer time to establish data link. A disconnection can be detected by monitoring Data link status
(each station) (SW00B0 to SW00B7) of the master station.

■Precautions
• After the master station is powered on, it may take longer time to establish data link with each IO-Link module at the first
connection.
• Depending on the operating environment, it may take longer time to establish data link.
• If the link scan time of when no tool is connected is long, it may take longer time to establish data link.
• On the network configuration settings, set line topology for the network topology.
• This function shortens the time for data linking between the IO-Link module and master station. However, the module
operation start time of the IO-Link module itself will not be shortened. ( Page 16 Performance Specifications)

7 FUNCTIONS
96 7.5 Event Acquisition Function
7.6 Protection Function
The overload protection function and overheat protection function protect the internal circuit from overcurrent and its heat.

The overload protection function and the overheat protection function do not protect external devices but
protect the internal circuit of the module.
A problem on a load may raise the internal temperature of the module, causing deterioration in output
elements and discoloration on the case and the printed-circuit board. Turn off the corresponding output as
soon as a problem on a load is found, and remove the cause.

Overload protection function


Current is cut off when the IO-Link module detects overcurrent. At that time, the following error codes are generated.
• Overcurrent detected in C/Q cable (error code: 180AH)
• Overcurrent detected in L+ cable (error code: 180CH)
Overcurrent detection values and limited currents are as follows.
• C/Q output: 200mA or more per point
• L+ output: 1.6A or more per point
If the load current becomes equal to the overcurrent detection value or lower, the module returns to normal operation.

Overheat protection function 7


If high heat is detected in the module, C/Q output turns off and a temperature rise error (160 or more) (error code: 180EH)
occurs.
The overheat protection function operates at each point. If the heat descends, the module automatically returns to normal
operation.

7 FUNCTIONS
7.6 Protection Function 97
7.7 External Power Supply Monitoring Function
This function monitors the ON/OFF status of the external power supplies of IO-Link modules.
When an external power supply turns off, an external power supply OFF error (error code: 3006H) occurs.
An external power supply OFF error (error code: 3006H) occurs also when the power-on of the external power supply is not
detected within five seconds after the IO-Link module is powered on.

power on the external power supply. If the I/O PW LED is on, an IO-Link module hardware failure may exist. Please consult
your local Mitsubishi representative.
6. The MODE LED turns off when the unit test finishes successfully.
• When the test finishes successfully, the ERR. LED remains off and does not turn on.
• If the test fails, the ERR. LED turns on. If the unit test fails, check the I/O PW LED. If the I/O PW LED is off, check whether
the voltage of the external power supply is correct. Perform rewiring if necessary and run the test again. If the I/O PW LED
is on, replace the Ethernet cable and run the test again. If the test fails again, an IO-Link module hardware failure may exist.
Please consult your local Mitsubishi representative.

When unit test fails, the error details can be checked in the error history.
To check the error history, reset the station number setting switch of the IO-Link module from TEST and
connect the module to the master station with an Ethernet cable.
For error history, refer to the following.

■Error status flag (RWr0.b10)


Error status flag (RWr0.b10) turns on when a moderate error or major error occurs (excluding a watchdog timer error).
Eliminating the cause of the error and turning on Error clear request flag (RWw0.b10) resets Error code (RWr1) to 0000H and
turns off Error status flag (RWr0.b10).
Also, corresponding moderate errors for Current error data 1 to 16 (address: 2B00H to 2BFFH) are reset to 0000H.
If the cause of the error cannot be eliminated and Error clear request flag (RWw0.b10) is on, Current error data 1 to 16
(address: 2B00H to 2BFFH) cannot be cleared.
When a major error has occurred, the error clear operation is not available.
Multiple errors occurring on multiple channels can be cleared collectively.

The event history is not cleared even if Error clear request flag (RWw0.b10) is turned on and off. To clear the
event history, set Event history clear command (address: 2D00H) to on (1). ( Page 180 Event history

■Remote READY (RWr0.b11)


This signal is used as an interlock condition when the CC-Link IE Field Network master station reads/writes data from/to the
remote register and other areas of the IO-Link module.
When turning on or resetting the module power supply, Remote READY (RWr0.b11) turns on.
Remote READY (RWr0.b11) may turn off while the IO-Link module is operating.
The following shows the conditions under which Remote READY (RWr0.b11) turns off.
• When a moderate or major error occurs (When a moderate error occurs, all causes of errors from Current error data 1 to 16

■Description
An error code is stored when a moderate error or major error occurs (excluding a watchdog timer error).
Turning on Error clear request flag (RWw0.b10) after eliminating the cause of the error clears the error code.

While a moderate error is occurring, the latest error code will not be overwritten by any new moderate errors
that may occur. If a major error occurs while a moderate error is occurring, the error code is overwritten with
that for the major error.

■Description
Warning codes are stored when minor errors occur.
After five seconds from eliminating the cause of the minor error, the latest warning code is automatically cleared.

While a minor error is occurring, the latest warning code will not be overwritten by any new minor errors that
may occur.

Appendix 3 Remote Buffer Memory
This section describes remote buffer memory.
Remote buffer memory is partitioned into parameter areas, monitor areas, event information areas, and module control data
areas by addresses.

• Do not read/write data from/to any "Use prohibited" remote buffer memory areas. Doing so may cause an
accident due to incorrect output or malfunction.
• Some areas are disabled depending on the operation mode. If disabled, any written setting values are
ignored.
• If writing values to parameter areas and module control data areas successively, write 0 for "Reserved
areas".
• Unless otherwise specified, 0 is stored when the CPU module is powered on or the CPU module is reset.

Measures to comply with the EMC Directive


The EMC Directive sets requirements for emission (conducted and radiated electromagnetic interference emitted by a
product) and immunity (the ability of a product not to be influenced by externally generated electromagnetic interference).
This section describes the precautions for machinery constructed with the modules to comply with the EMC Directive.
These precautions are based on the requirements of the EMC Directive and the harmonized standards. However, they do not
guarantee that the entire machinery constructed according to the descriptions complies with the EMC Directive.
The manufacturer of the machinery must determine the testing method for compliance and declare conformity to the EMC
Directive.

APPX
194 Appendix 6 EMC and Low Voltage Directives
Installation in a control panel
The module is an open-type device and must be installed inside a control panel.
This ensures safety as well as effective shielding of programmable controller-generated electromagnetic noise.

■Control panel
• Use a conductive control panel.
• When securing the top or bottom plate using bolts, cover the grounding part on the control panel so that the part will not be
painted.
• To ensure electrical contact between the inner plate and control panel, take measures such as covering the bolts so that
conductivity can be ensured in the largest possible area.
• Ground the control panel with a thick ground cable so that low impedance can be ensured even at high frequencies.
• Holes in the control panel must be 10cm diameter or less. If the holes are larger than 10cm, radio wave may leak. In
addition, because radio waves leak through a clearance between the control panel and its door, reduce the clearance as
much as possible. The leakage of radio waves can be suppressed by the direct application of an EMI gasket on the paint
surface.
Our tests have been carried out on a control panel having the damping characteristics of 37dB (max.) and 30dB (mean)
(measured by 3m method, 30 to 300MHz).

■Wiring of power cables and ground cables


Near the power supply part, provide a grounding point to the control panel. Ground the FG terminal with the thickest and
shortest possible ground cable (30cm or shorter).

APPX
Appendix 6 EMC and Low Voltage Directives 195
Cables
Use shielded cables for the cables which are connected to the module and run out from the control panel. If a shielded cable
is not used or not grounded correctly, the noise immunity will not meet the specified value.

■Cables for the CC-Link IE Field Network


Shielded cables should be used for the CC-Link IE Field Network. Strip a part of the jacket as shown below and ground the
exposed shield in the largest possible area.

■Grounding the cable clamp


Use shielded cables for external wiring and ground the shields of the external wiring cables to the control panel with the
AD75CK cable clamp (manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation). (Ground the shield section 20 to 30cm away from
the module.)

External power supply


• Use a CE-marked product for an external power supply and always ground the FG terminal. (External power supply used
for the tests conducted by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation: IDEC PS6R-F24)
• Use a power cable of 10m or shorter when connecting it to the module power supply terminal.
• Use a power cable with a total length of 30m or less for connections to the external power supply.
• Use a power cable of 3m or less for connections from the external power supply terminal to the noise filter.

■Ferrite core
A ferrite core has the effect of reducing radiation noise in the 30MHz to 100MHz band. It is recommended to attach ferrite
cores if shielded cables coming out of the control panel do not provide sufficient shielding effects.
Note that the ferrite cores must be attached at the position closest to the cable hole inside the control panel. If attached at an
improper position, the ferrite core will not produce any effect.
Attach a ferrite core 4cm away from the IO-Link module power supply terminal connected to the IO-Link module external
power supply.

(Ferrite core used for the tests conducted by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation: NEC TOKIN ESD-SR-250)

Ex.

■Noise filter (power supply line filter)


A noise filter is a component which has an effect on conducted noise. Attaching the filter can suppress more noise. (The noise
filter has the effect of reducing conducted noise of 10MHz or less.)
Connect a noise filter to the external power supply of the module. Use a noise filter with the damping characteristics
equivalent to those of RSEN-2006 (manufactured by TDK-Lambda Corporation). Note that a noise filter is not required if the
module is used in Zone A defined in EN61131-2.
The precautions for attaching a noise filter are described below.
• Do not bundle the cables on the input side and output side of the noise filter. If bundled, the output side noise will be
induced into the input side cables from which the noise was filtered.
Input side (power supply side)
• Problematic example
Noise is induced when the input and output cables are bundled.
