SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
(Read these precautions before using)
When using Mitsubishi equipment, thoroughly read this manual and the related
manuals introduced in this manual. Also pay careful attention to safety and
handle the module correctly.
These SAFETY PRECAUTIONS classify the safety precautions into two
categories: "DANGER" and "CAUTION".
DANGER
Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition

and cause death or serious injury if not carried out
correctly.
CAUTION
Procedures which may lead to a dangerous condition

and cause superficial to medium injury, or physical
damage only, if not carried out correctly.
Depending on circumstances, procedures indicated by

CAUTION may also
cause serious accidents.
In any case, it is important to follow the directions for usage.
Store this manual in a safe place so that you can take it out and read it
whenever necessary. Always forward it to the end user.
A-1
[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]
DANGER
Install a safety circuit external to the PLC that keeps the entire system safe
even when there are problems with the external power supply or the PLC
module. Otherwise, trouble could result from erroneous output or
erroneous operation.
(1) Outside the PLC, construct mechanical damage preventing interlock
circuits such as emergency stop, protective circuits, positioning upper
and lower limits switches and interlocking forward/reverse operations.
(2) When the PLC detects the following problems, it will stop calculation and
turn off all output in the case of (a).
In the case of (b), it will hold or turn off all output according to the
parameter setting.
Note that the AnS/A series module will turn off the output in either of
cases (a) and (b).
(a) The power supply module

has over current protection
equipment and over voltage
protection equipment.
(b) The CPU module selfdiagnosis functions, such as
the watch dog timer error,
detect problems.
Q series module
AnS/A series
module
Output OFF
Output OFF
Hold or turn off all

output according to
the parameter
setting.
Output OFF
In addition, all outputs will be turned on when there are problems that
the CPU module cannot detect, such as in the I/O controller. Build a
fail-safe circuit or provide a mechanism exterior to the PLC that will
make sure the equipment operates safely at such times. For a failsafe circuit example, see "Loading and Installation" in this manual.
(3) Output could be left on or off when there is trouble in the outputs module
relay or transistor. So build an external monitoring circuit that will monitor
any single outputs that could cause serious trouble.
When overcurrent which exceeds the rating or caused by short-circuited
load flows in the output module for a long time, it may cause smoke or fire.
To prevent this, configure an external safety circuit, such as fuse.
Build a circuit that turns on the external power supply when the PLC main
module power is turned on. If the external power supply is turned on first, it
could result in erroneous output or erroneous operation.
A-2
[DESIGN PRECAUTIONS]
DANGER
When there are communication problems with the data link, refer to the
corresponding data link manual for the operating status of each station. Not
doing so could result in erroneous output or erroneous operation.
When connecting a peripheral device to the CPU module or connecting a
personal computer or the like to the intelligent function module to exercise
control (data change) on the running PLC, configure up an interlock circuit
in the sequence program to ensure that the whole system will always
operate safely.
Also before exercising other control (program change, operating status
change (status control)) on the running PLC, read the manual carefully and
fully confirm safety.
Especially for the above control on the remote PLC from an external
device, an immediate action may not be taken for PLC trouble due to a
data communication fault.
In addition to configuring up the interlock circuit in the sequence program,
corrective and other actions to be taken as a system for the occurrence of
a data communication fault should be predetermined between the external
device and CPU module.
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 100 mm (3.94 inch) or more from each other. Not doing so could
result in noise that would cause erroneous operation.
When controlling items like lamp load, heater or solenoid valve using an
output module, large current (approximately ten times greater than that
present in normal circumstances) may flow when the output is turned OFF
to ON.
Take measures such as replacing the module with one having sufficient
rated current.
A-3
[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS]
CAUTION
Use the PLC in an environment that meets the general specifications
contained in this manual. Using this PLC in an environment outside the
range of the general specifications could result in electric shock, fire,
erroneous operation, and damage to or deterioration of the product.
While pressing the installation lever located at the bottom of module, insert
the module fixing tab into the fixing hole in the base unit until it stops. Then,
securely mount the module with the fixing hole as a supporting point.
Incorrect mounting of the module can cause a malfunction, failure or drop.
When using the PLC in the environment of much vibration, tighten the
module with a screw.
Tighten the screw in the specified torque range. Undertightening can cause
a drop, short circuit or malfunction. Overtightening can cause a drop, short
circuit or malfunction due to damage to the screw or module.
When installing extension cables, be sure that the connectors of base unit
are installed correctly. After installation, check them for looseness. Poor
connections could cause an input or output failure.
Securely mount the memory card into the memory card mounting
connector. After mounting, check for lifting. Lifting can cause a malfunction
due to a contact fault.
Completely turn off the externally supplied power used in the system
before mounting or removing the module. Not doing so could result in
damage to the product.
Note that the module can be changed online (while power is on) in the
system that uses the CPU module compatible with online module change
or on the MELSECNET/H remote I/O station. Note that there are
restrictions on the modules that can be changed online (while power is on)
and each module has a predetermined changing procedure.
For details, refer to the QCPU User's Manual (Hardware Design,
Maintenance and Inspection) and the manual of the corresponding module
compatible with online module change.
Do not directly touch the module's conductive parts or electronic
components. Touching the conductive parts could cause an operation
failure or give damage to the module.
When using the Motion CPU module or motion module, be sure to check
that the combination of modules is correct before power-on.
The product may be damaged if the combination is incorrect.
For details, refer to the user's manual for the Motion CPU module.
A-4
[WIRING PRECAUTIONS]
DANGER
Completely turn off the externally supplied power used in the system when
installing or placing wiring. Not completely turning off all power could result
in electric shock or damage to the product.
When turning on the power supply or operating the module after installation
or wiring work, be sure that the module's terminal covers are correctly
attached. Not attaching the terminal cover could result in electric shock.
CAUTION
Be sure to ground the FG terminals and LG terminals to the protective
ground conductor. Not doing so could result in electric shock or erroneous
operation.
Use applicable solderless terminals and tighten them with the specified
torque. If any solderless spade terminal is used, it may be disconnected
when the terminal screw comes loose, resulting in failure.
When wiring in the PLC, be sure that it is done correctly by checking the
product's rated voltage and the terminal layout. Connecting a power supply
that is different from the rating or incorrectly wiring the product could result
in fire or damage.
External connections shall be crimped or pressure welded with the
specified tools, or correctly soldered. Imperfect connections could result in
short circuit, fires, or erroneous operation.
Tighten the terminal screws with the specified torque. If the terminal screws
are loose, it could result in short circuits, fire, or erroneous operation.
Tightening the terminal screws too far may cause damages to the screws
and/or the module, resulting in fallout, short circuits, or malfunction.
Be sure there are no foreign substances such as sawdust or wiring debris
inside the module. Such debris could cause fires, damage, or erroneous
operation.
The module has an ingress prevention label on its top to prevent foreign
matter, such as wire offcuts, from entering the module during wiring.
Do not peel this label during wiring.
Before starting system operation, be sure to peel this label because of heat
dissipation.
Install our PLC in a control panel for use.
Wire the main power supply to the power supply module installed in a
control panel through a distribution terminal block.
Furthermore, the wiring and replacement of a power supply module have to
be performed by a maintenance worker who acquainted with shock
protection.
(For the wiring methods, refer to the QCPU User's Manual (Hardware
Design, Maintenance and Inspection).)
A-5
[STARTUP AND MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS]

DANGER
Do not touch the terminals while power is on.
Doing so could cause shock or erroneous operation.
Correctly connect the battery. Also, do not charge, disassemble, heat,
place in fire, short circuit, or solder the battery. Mishandling of battery can
cause overheating or cracks which could result in injury and fires.
Switch off all phases of the externally supplied power used in the system
when cleaning the module or retightening the terminal or module mounting
screws. Not doing so could result in electric shock.
Undertightening of terminal screws can cause a short circuit or malfunction.
Overtightening of screws can cause damages to the screws and/or the
module, resulting in fallout, short circuits, or malfunction.
CAUTION
The online operations conducted for the CPU module being operated,
connecting the peripheral device (especially, when changing data or
operation status), shall be conducted after the manual has been carefully
read and a sufficient check of safety has been conducted.
Operation mistakes could cause damage or problems with of the module.
Do not disassemble or modify the modules.
Doing so could cause trouble, erroneous operation, injury, or fire.
Use any radio communication device such as a cellular phone or a PHS
phone more than 25cm (9.85 inch) away in all directions of the PLC.
Not doing so can cause a malfunction.
Completely turn off the externally supplied power used in the system

*1: This indicates the section of the power supply to which the equipment is
assumed to be connected between the public electrical power distribution
network and the machinery within premises. Category II applies to equipment
for which electrical power is supplied from fixed facilities.
The surge voltage withstand level for up to the rated voltage of 300 V is 2500
V.
*2: This index indicates the degree to which conductive material is generated in
terms of the environment in which the equipment is used.
In the environment corresponding to "Pollution level 2", basically only nonconductive pollution occurs, however temporary conductivity may occur due
to the occasional condensing.
*3: The storage ambient temperature is -20 to 75 if the system includes the
AnS/A series modules.
*4: The operating ambient humidity and storage ambient humidity are 10 to
90%RH if the system includes the AnS/A series modules.
*5: Do not use or store the PLC under pressure higher than the atmospheric
pressure of altitude 0m. Doing so can cause a malfunction.
When using the PLC under pressure, please contact your sales
representative.

POINT
*1 : Overcurrent protection
The overcurrent protection device shuts off the 5V, 24V DC circuit and
stops the system if the current flowing in the circuit exceeds the specified
value. If this device is activated, switch the input power supply off and
eliminate the cause such as insufficient current capacity or short. Then, a
few minutes later, switch it on to restart the system.
The initial start for the system takes place when the current value becomes
normal.
*2 : Overvoltage protection
The overvoltage protection device shuts off the 5V DC circuit and stops
the system if a voltage of 5.5 to 6.5V DC is applied to the circuit. When this
device is activated, the power supply module LED is switched OFF. If this
happens, switch the input power OFF, then a few minutes later ON. This
causes the initial start for the system to take place. The power supply
module must be changed if the system is not booted and the LED remains
OFF.
29
POINT
*3 : Allowable momentary power failure time
(1) For AC input power supply
y If the momentary power failure time is within 20ms, the system
detects an AC down and suspends the operation processing.
However, the system continues operations after the power comes
back.
y If the momentary power failure time exceeds 20ms, the system
either continues or initially starts operations depending on the power
supply load. In case that the operation processing is continued, the
system operates the same as when the momentary power failure
time is within 20ms.
Supplying the same amount of AC to both the power supply module
and the input module (such as QX10) can prevent the sensor
connected to the input module from being switched to the OFF
status when the power supply turns OFF.
Note, however, that if only the input module (such as QX10) is
connected on the AC line, which is connected to the power supply,
an AC down detection in the power supply module may be delayed
due to the internal capacitor of the input module. To avoid this,
connect a load of approx. 30mA per input module on the AC line.
In the system operating with two redundant power supply modules,
the system does not initially start operations when the momentary
power failure exceeding 20ms occurs in only one of the input power
supplies.
The system, however, may initially start operations when the
momentary power failure exceeding 20ms occurs simultaneously in
both input power supplies.
(2) DC input power supply
y If the momentary power failure time is within 10ms(*4), the system
detects an 24VDC down and suspends the operation processing.
However, the system continues operations after the power comes
back.
y If the momentary power failure time exceeds 10ms(*4), the system
either continues or initially starts operations depending on the power
supply load. In case that the operation processing is continued, the
system operates the same as when the momentary power failure
time is within 10ms.
(*4: This is the time when 24VDC is input. If the input is less than
24VDC, the time will be less than 10ms.)
*5 : Inrush current
When power is switched on again immediately (within 5 seconds) after
power-off, an inrush current of more than the specified value (2ms or less)
may flow. Reapply power 5 or more seconds after power-off. When
selecting a fuse and breaker in the external circuit, take account of the
blowout, detection characteristics and above matters.

3. EMC and Low Voltage Directive

For the products sold in European countries, the conformance to the EMC
Directive, which is one of the European Directives, has been a legal obligation
since 1996. Also, conformance to the Low Voltage Directive, another European
Directives, has been a legal obligation since 1997.
Manufacturers who recognize their products must conform to the EMC and Low
Voltage Directive are required to declare that their products conform to these
Directives and put a "CE mark" on their products.
3.1 Requirements for conformance to EMC Directive
The EMC Directive specifies that products placed on the market must "be so
constructed that they do not cause excessive electromagnetic interference
(emissions) and are not unduly affected by electromagnetic interference
(immunity)". The applicable products are requested to meet these requirements.
The sections 3.1.1 through 3.1.6 summarize the precautions on conformance to
the EMC Directive of the machinery constructed using the MELSEC-Q series
PLCs.
The details of these precautions has been prepared based on the control
requirements and the applicable standards. However, we will not assure that
the overall machinery manufactured according to these details conforms to the
above-mentioned directives. The method of conformance to the EMC Directive
and the judgment on whether or not the machinery conforms to the EMC
Directive must be determined finally by the manufacturer of the machinery.

Besides, our programmable controller has been tested with the maximum
rated input value of the power supply module to be used.
35
3.1.2 Installation instructions for EMC Directive

Programmable controller is an open type device and must be installed inside a
control panel for use.* This not only ensures safety but also ensures effective
shielding of PLC-generated electromagnetic noise.
* : Also, each network remote station needs to be installed inside the control
panel. However, the waterproof type remote station can be installed outside
the control panel.
(1) Control panel
(a) Use a conductive control panel.
(b) When attaching the control panel's top plate or base plate, mask
painting and weld so that good surface contact can be made between
the panel and plate.
(c) To ensure good electrical contact with the control panel, mask the
paint on the installation bolts of the inner plate in the control panel so
that contact between surfaces can be ensured over the widest
possible area.
(d) Earth the control panel with a thick wire so that a low impedance
connection to ground can be ensured even at high frequencies.
(e) Holes made in the control panel must be 10 cm (3.94 inch) diameter or
less. If the holes are 10 cm (3.94 inch) or larger, radio frequency noise
may be emitted.
In addition, because radio waves leak through a clearance between
the control panel door and the main unit, reduce the clearance as
much as practicable.
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 panel having the damping
characteristics of 37 dB max. and 30 dB mean (measured by 3 m
method with 30 to 300MHz).
(2) Connection of power and earth wires
Earthing and power supply wires for the PLC system must be connected
as described below.
(a) Provide an earthing point near the power supply module. Earth the
power supply's LG and FG terminals (LG : Line Ground, FG : Frame
Ground) with the thickest and shortest wire possible. (The wire length
must be 30 cm (11.18 inch) or shorter.) The LG and FG terminals
function is to pass the noise generated in the PLC system to the
ground, so an impedance that is as low as possible must be ensured.
As the wires are used to relieve the noise, the wire itself carries a
large noise content and thus short wiring means that the wire is
prevented from acting as an antenna.
(b) The earth wire led from the earthing point must be twisted with the
power supply wires. By twisting with the earthing wire, noise flowing
from the power supply wires can be relieved to the earthing. However,
if a filter is installed on the power supply wires, the wires and the
earthing wire may not need to be twisted.
36
3.1.3 Cables
The cables extracted from the control panel contain a high frequency noise
component. On the outside of the control panel, therefore, they serve as
antennas to emit noise. To prevent noise emission, use shielded cable for the
cables which are connected to the I/O modules and intelligent function modules
and may be extracted to the outside of the control panel.
(Using shielded cable also reinforces noise durability.) The signal lines (including
common line) connected to PLC I/O modules, intelligent function modules and
extension cables use shielded cables to assure noise durability under the
conditions where the shield is earthed. If the shielded cable is not used or not
earthed correctly, the noise durability will not meet the standard.
(1) Earthing of shielded of shield cable
(a) Earth the shield of the shielded cable as near the unit as possible taking
care so that the earthed cables are not induced electromagnetically by
the cable to be earthed.
(b) Take appropriate measures so that the shield section of the shielded
cable from which the outer cover was partly removed for exposure is
earthed to the control panel on an increased contact surface. A clamp
may also be used as shown in the figure below. In this case, however,
apply a cover to the painted inner wall surface of the control panel
which comes in contact with the clamp.

Note) The method of earthing by soldering a wire onto the shield section of
the shielded cable as shown below is not recommended. The high
frequency impedance will increase and the shield will be ineffective.

(2) MELSECNET/H module

Always use a double-shielded coaxial cable (MITSUBISHI CABLE
INDUSTRIES, LED.: 5C-2V-CCY) for the coaxial cables MELSECNET/H
module. Radiated noise in the range of 30MHz or higher can be
suppressed by use of the double-shielded coaxial cables. Earth the doubleshielded coaxial cable by connecting its outer shield to the ground.

Because the AUI cable is of the shielded type, strip part of the outer
cover and earth the exposed shield section to the ground on the widest
contact surface as shown below.

*1: Make sure to install a ferrite core for the cable.
As a ferrite core, ZCAT2032 manufactured by TDK is
recommended.
(b) Use shielded twisted pair cables as the twisted pair cables connected
to the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX connectors. For the shielded twisted
pair cables, strip part of the outer cover and earth the exposed shield
section to the ground on the widest contact surface as shown below.

Always ground the LG and FG terminals
after short-circuiting them.
*1: If sufficient filter circuitry is built into the 24V DC external power supply
module, the noise generated by A1S63P will be absorbed by that filter
circuit, so a line filter may not be required.
Filtering circuitry of version F or later of A1S63P is improved so that a
external line filter is not required.
44
3.1.6 Others
(1) Ferrite core
A ferrite core has the effect of reducing radiated noise in the 30MHz to
100MHz band.
It is not required to fit ferrite cores to cables, but it is recommended to fit
ferrite cores if shield cables pulled out of the enclosure do not provide
sufficient shielding effects.
It should be noted that the ferrite cores should be fitted to the cables in the
position immediately before they are pulled out of the enclosure. If the
fitting position is improper, the ferrite will not produce any effect.
(2) Noise filter (power supply line filter)
A noise filter has an effect on conducted noise. Except for
A61PEU/A62PEU power supply modules or some models, it is not
essential to install noise filter to a power supply line, which can further
suppress noise.
(The noise filter has the effect of reducing conducted noise of 10MHz or
less.)
The precautions required when installing a noise filter are described below.
1) Do not bundle the wires on the input side and output side of the noise
filter. When they are bundled, the output side noise will induct into the
input side wires.

3.2 Requirement to Conform to the Low Voltage Directive

The Low Voltage Directive requires each device that operates with the power
supply ranging from 50 to 1000V AC and 75 to 1500V DC to satisfy the safety
requirements.
In Sections 3.2.1 to 3.2.6, cautions on installation and wiring of the MELSEC-Q
series PLC to conform to the Low Voltage Directive are described.
We have put the maximum effort to develop this material based on the
requirements and standards of the regulation that we have collected. However,
compatibility of the devices which are fabricated according to the contents of
this manual to the above regulation is not guaranteed. Each manufacturer who
fabricates such device should make the final judgment about the application
method of the Low Voltage Directive and the product compatibility.
3.2.1 Standard applied for MELSEC-Q series PLC
The standard applied for MELSEC-Q series PLC is EN61131-2 safety of
devices used in measurement rooms, control rooms, or laboratories.
The MELSEC-Q series modules which operate at the rated voltage of 50V
AC/75V DC or above are also developed to conform to the above standard.
The modules which operate at the rated voltage of less than 50V AC/75V DC
are out of the Low Voltage Directive application range.
3.2.2 PLC selection
There are dangerous voltages (voltages higher than 42.4V peak) inside
the power supply modules of the 100/200V AC rated I/O voltages.
Therefore, the CE marked models are enhanced in insulation internally
between the primary and secondary.
(2) I/O module
There are dangerous voltages in the I/O modules of the 100/200V AC
rated I/O voltages. Therefore, the CE marked models are enhanced in
insulation internally between the primary and secondary.
The I/O modules of 24V DC or less rating are out of Low Voltage Directive
application range.
(3) CPU module, memory card, base unit
Using 5V DC circuits inside, the above modules are out of the Low
Voltage Directive application range.
(4) Intelligent function modules (special function modules)
The intelligent function modules (special function modules) such as the
analog, network and positioning modules are 24V DC or less in rated
voltage and are therefore out of the Low Voltage Directive application
range.
(5) Display device
Use the CE marked display device.
47
3.2.3 Power supply

The insulation specification of the power supply module was designed
assuming installation category II. Be sure to use the installation category II
power supply to the PLC.
The installation category indicates the durability level against surge voltage
generated by a thunderbolt. Category I has the lowest durability; category IV
has the highest durability.
Category IV
Category III
Category II
Category I
Figure 1.: Installation Category

Category II indicates a power supply whose voltage has been reduced by two or
more levels of isolating transformers from the public power distribution.
3.2.4 Control panel
Programmable controller is an open type device (a device designed to be
housed inside other equipment) and must be installed inside a control panel for
use.*
* : Also, each network remote station needs to be installed inside the control
panel. However, the waterproof type remote station can be installed outside
the control panel.
(1) Electrical shock prevention
In order to prevent persons who are not familiar with the electric facility such as
the operators from electric shocks, the control panel must have the following
functions:
(a) The control panel must be equipped with a lock so that only the
personnel who has studied about the electric facility and have enough
knowledge can open it.
(b) The control panel must have a structure which automatically stops the
power supply when the panel is opened.
(c) For electric shock protection, use IP20 or greater control panel.
48
(2) Dustproof and waterproof features

The control panel also has the dustproof and waterproof functions.
Insufficient dustproof and waterproof features lower the insulation
withstand voltage, resulting in insulation destruction. The insulation in our
PLC is designed to cope with the pollution level 2, so use in an
environment with pollution level 2 or below.
Pollution level 1: An environment where the air is dry and conductive dust
does not exist.
Pollution level 2: An environment where conductive dust does not usually
exist, but occasional temporary conductivity occurs due
to the accumulated dust. Generally, this is the level for
inside the control panel equivalent to IP54 in a control
room or on the floor of a typical factory.
Pollution level 3: An environment where conductive dust exits and
conductivity may be generated due to the accumulated
dust.
An environment for a typical factory floor.
Pollution level 4: Continuous conductivity may occur due to rain, snow,
etc.
An outdoor environment.
As shown above, the PLC can realize the pollution level 2 when stored in
a control panel equivalent to IP54.
49
3.2.5 Grounding
There are the following two different grounding terminals. Use either grounding
terminal in an earthed status.
Protective grounding
Functional grounding
: Maintains the safety of the PLC and improves

the noise resistance.
: Improves the noise resistance.
3.2.6 External wiring

(1) Module power supply and external power supply
For the remote module which requires 24V DC as module power supply,
the 5/12/24/48V DC I/O module, and the intelligent function module
(special function module) which requires the external power supply, use
the 5/12/24/48V DC circuit which is doubly insulated from the hazardous
voltage circuit or use the power supply whose insulation is reinforced.
(2) External devices
When a device with a hazardous voltage circuit is externally connected to
the PLC, use a model whose circuit section of the interface to the PLC is
intensively insulated from the hazardous voltage circuit.
(3) Intensive insulation
Intensive insulation refers to the insulation with the dielectric withstand
voltage shown in Table 1.

4. Mounting and Installation

4.1 Module Installation
4.1.1 Handling instructions
CAUTION
z Use the PLC in an environment that meets the general

specifications contained in this manual. Using this
PLC in an environment outside the range of the
general specifications could result in electric shock,
fire, erroneous operation, and damage to or
deterioration of the product.
z While pressing the mounting lever located at the
bottom of module, insert the module fixing projection
into the fixing hole in the base unit until it stops. Then,
securely mount the module with the fixing hole as a
supporting point. Incorrect mounting of the module
can cause a malfunction, failure or drop.
When using the PLC in the environment of much
vibration, tighten the module with a screw.
Tighten the screw in the specified torque range.
Undertightening can cause a drop, short circuit or
malfunction. Overtightening can cause a drop, short
circuit or malfunction due to damage to the screw or
module.
z When installing extension cables, be sure that the
connectors of base unit are installed correctly.
After installation, check them for looseness. Poor
connections could cause an input or output failure.
z Securely mount the memory card by pushing it into the
memory card mounting slot. Then, confirm that it has
been securely mounted. Not doing so can cause a
malfunction due to a contact fault.
z Completely turn off the externally supplied power used
in the system before mounting or removing the
module. Not doing so could result in damage to the
product.
Note that the module can be changed online (while
power is on) in the system or on the MELSECNET/H
remote I/O station that uses the CPU module
compatible with online module change. Note that there
are restrictions on the modules that can be changed
online (while power is on) and each module has a
predetermined changing procedure.
For details, refer to the QCPU User's Manual
(Hardware Design, Maintenance and Inspection) and
the manual of the corresponding module compatible
with online module change.
51
CAUTION
z Do not install/remove the module to/from the base unit,

or the terminal block to/from the module more than 50
times after the first use of the product. (IEC 61131-2
compliant)
Failure to do so may cause malfunction.
z Do not directly touch the module's conductive parts or
electronic components. Touching the conductive parts
could cause an operation failure or give damage to the
module.
POINT
In use of QA1S6 B, when installing the base unit to DIN rail in an environment
with large vibration, use a vibration-proofing bracket (A1S-PLT-D). Mounting the
vibration-proofing bracket (A1S-PLT-D) enhances the resistance to vibration.
Depending on the environment to set up the base unit, it is also recommended
to fix the base unit to the control panel directly.
This section provides instructions for handling the CPU, I/O, intelligent function
and power supply modules, base units and so on.
(1) Module enclosure, memory card, terminal block connectors and pin
connectors are made of resin; do not drop them or subject them to strong
impact.
(2) Do not remove modules' printed circuit boards from the enclosure in order
to avoid changes in operation.
(3) Make sure to install the power supply module on the extension base units
Q6B, QA1S6B, QA6B, QA6ADP+A6B, Q6RB, Q6WRB. Even
if the power supply module is not installed, when the I/O modules and
intelligent function module installed on the base units are of light load type,
the modules may be operated. In the case, because a voltage becomes
unstable, we cannot guarantee the operation.
(4) Tighten the module mounting and fixing screws as specified below.
Screw
Module fixing screw (M3 12 screw)
I/O module terminal block screw (M3 screw)
I/O module terminal block mounting screw (M3.5 screw)

In addition, when three or more large modules with 130mm or more in

depth (such as Q66DA-G etc.) are mounted, or when the base unit is
used in the environment with extremely large vibration, use the Q6DIN1A
Q-type base DIN rail mounting adaptor (vibration-proofing bracket kit)
where the large mounting bracket is included. The large mounting bracket
enables to enhance the resistance to vibration. Depending on the
environment, it is recommended to mount the base unit on the control
panel directly.

4.1.4 Setting the extension stage number of the extension base unit
When using two or more extension base units, their extension stage numbers
must be set with the extension stage number setting connectors. *1
Extension 1 need not be set since the extension stage number is factory-set to 1.
Make this setting in the following procedure.
*1: Since the Q6WRB is fixed to the first extension stage, extension stage
No. setting is not required.
(1) The extension stage number setting connector of the extension base unit
is located under the IN side base cover.
First, loosen the upper and lower screws in the IN side base cover and
remove the base cover from the extension base unit.
(2) Insert the connector pin in the required extension number location of the
connector (PIN1) existing between the IN and OUT sides of the extension
cable connector.

serial No. of the Redundant CPU is "09012" or later and the redundant
system is configured. The extension base unit cannot be connected when
the first 5 digits of serial No. of the Redundant CPU module is "09011" or
earlier.
*3: Connect the Q6WRB to the first extension stage. Since the Q6WRB is
fixed to the first extension stage, stage No. setting is not required.
*4: The Q6WRB cannot be connected to the second extension stage or
later stages. Use the Q6RB for the second extension stage or later
stages.
POINT
(1) Set the extension stage number setting connector to any of numbers 1 to
7 in ascending order.
If two or more modules have the same number or any module has no
setting, for example, false input and output will occur.
(2) For the connection order of the extension base unit, if the Q5B, Q6B,
QA1S6B, QA6B, and QA6ADP+A5B/A6B *5 are used together,
mount the Q5B /Q6B, QA1S6B, QA6B, and
QA6ADP+A5B/A6B in order from the nearest position of the main
base unit.
Example:
When 4 Q68Bs, 2 QA1S68Bs and 1 QA68B (i.e., 7 in total) are
extended, Q68B should be set in 1 to 4 stages, QA1S68B should be
set in 5 to 6 stages and QA68B should be set in 7 stage.
(3) In case of using the QA6ADP+A5B/A6B, be sure to set the same
stage number to both the stage number setting connector of the
A5B/A6B and that of the QA6ADP.
*5: When using the QA1S6B as the extension base unit, the
QA6ADP+A5B/A6B cannot be connected.
(3) Mount the base cover to the extension base unit and tighten the base
cover screw.
(Tightening torque: 0.36 to 0.48Nxm)
70
4.1.5 Connecting and disconnecting extension cable

(1) Instructions for handling an extension cable
Do not stamp an extension cable.
An extension cable must be connected to the base unit when the base
cover has been installed.
(After you have set the extension number to the extension base unit,
reinstall and screw the base cover.)
When running an extension cable, the minimum bending radius of the
cable should be 55mm (2.17 inch) or more.
If it is less than 55mm (2.17 inch), a malfunction may occur due to
characteristic deterioration, open cable or the like.
When connecting or disconnecting an extension cable, do not hold the
ferrite cores mounted at both ends of the cable.
Hold the connector part of the cable for connection or disconnection.
Holding the ferrite core may cause the cable to open within the connector.
Also, if the ferrite core is shifted, the characteristic will change. When
handling the cable, take care not to shift the ferrite core positions.
71
(2) Connecting of extension cable

POINT
When connecting an extension base unit to the main base unit with an
extension cable, always plug the OUT side connector of the main base unit
and the IN side connector of the extension base unit with an extension
cable. The system will not operate properly if the extension cable is
connected in the form of IN to IN, OUT to OUT or IN to OUT.
When connecting two or more extension base units, plug the OUT side
connector of the first extension base unit and the IN side connector of the
second extension base unit with an extension cable.
(a) To connect an extension cable to the main base unit, remove the
portion under the OUT characters on the base cover with a tool such
as a flat-blade screwdriver (5.5 75, 6 100). This also applies to a
case where an extension cable is connected to the OUT side
connector of the extension base unit.
When plugging the extension cable to the Q00JCPU, remove the
cover of the extension cable connector by hand.

4.1.6 Connecting and disconnecting the tracking cable

(1) Precautions for handling the tracking cable
Do not step on the tracking cable.
When laying the tracking cable, secure at least 27.6mm as the minimum
bending radius of cable.
If it is less than 27.6mm, a malfunction may occur due to deteriorated
characteristics, broken wire, etc.

4.2 General Safety Requirements
DANGER z Install a safety circuit external to the PLC that keeps the
entire system safe even when there are problems with the
external power supply or the PLC module.
Otherwise, trouble could result from erroneous output or
(1) Outside the PLC, construct mechanical damage
preventing interlock circuits such as emergency stop,
protective circuits, positioning upper and lower limits
switches and interlocking forward/reverse operations.
(2) When the PLC detects the following problems, it will
stop calculation and turn off all output in the case of (a).
In the case of (b), it will hold or turn off all output
according to the parameter setting.
Note that the AnS/A series module will turn off the
output in either of cases (a) and (b).
(a) The power supply module

has over current
protection equipment and
over voltage protection
equipment.
(b) The CPU module selfdiagnostic functions, such
as the watch dog timer
error, detect problems.

setting.
In addition, all output will be turned on when there are

problems that the CPU module cannot detect, such as
in the I/O controller. Build a fail safe circuit exterior to
the PLC that will make sure the equipment operates
safely at such times.
(3) Output could be left on or off when there is trouble in
the outputs module relay or transistor. So build an
external monitoring circuit that will monitor any single
outputs that could cause serious trouble.
z When overcurrent which exceeds the rating or caused by
short-circuited load flows in the output module for a long
time, it may cause smoke or fire. To prevent this, configure
an external safety circuit, such as fuse.
z Build a circuit that turns on the external power supply when
the PLC main module power is turned on. If the external
power supply is turned on first, it could result in erroneous
output or erroneous operation.
z When there are communication problems with the data link,
refer to the corresponding data link manual for the
operating status of each station. Not doing so could result
in erroneous output or erroneous operation.
operating status of each station. Not doing so could result
in erroneous output or erroneous operation.
77
DANGER z When connecting a peripheral device to the CPU module
or connecting a personal computer or the like to the special

function module to exercise control (data change) on the
running PLC, configure up an interlock circuit in the
sequence program to ensure that the whole system will
always operate safely.
Also before exercising other control (program change,
operating status change (status control)) on the running
PLC, read the manual carefully and fully confirm safety.
Especially for the above control on the remote PLC from an
external device, an immediate action may not be taken for
PLC trouble due to a data communication fault. In addition
to configuring up the interlock circuit in the sequence
program, corrective and other actions to be taken as a
system for the occurrence of a data communication fault
should be predetermined between the external device and
CPU module.
z 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 100 mm (3.94 inch) or
more from each other.
Not doing so could result in noise that would cause
z When controlling items like lamp load, heater or solenoid
valve using an output module, large current (approximately
ten times greater than that present in normal
circumstances) may flow when the output is turned OFF to
ON. Take measures such as replacing the module with one
having sufficient rated current.
When the PLC power supply is switched ON to OFF, proper output of the
control target may not be provided temporarily due to differences in delay time
and starting time between the PLC power supply and the external power supply
for control target (especially DC).
For example, if the external power supply for control target is switched on in a
DC output module and the PLC power supply is then switched on, the DC
output module may provide false output instantaneously at power-on of the PLC.
Therefore, it is necessary to make up a circuit that can switch on the PLC power
supply first.
Also, an abnormal operation may be performed if an external power supply fault
or PLC failure takes place.
To prevent any of these abnormal operations from leading to the abnormal
operation of the whole system and in a fail-safe viewpoint, areas which can
result in machine breakdown and accidents due to abnormal operations (e.g.
emergency stop, protective and interlock circuits) should be constructed outside
the PLC. The following page gives examples of system designing in the above
viewpoint.

(3) Fail-safe measures against failure of the PLC

Failure of a CPU module or memory can be detected by the self-diagnosis
function. However, failure of I/O control area may not be detected by the
CPU module.
In such cases, all I/O points turn ON or OFF depending on a condition of
problem, and normal operating conditions and operating safety cannot
sometimes be maintained.
Though Mitsubishi PLCs are manufactured under strict quality control,
they may cause failure or abnormal operations due to unspecific reasons.
To prevent the abnormal operation of the whole system, machine
breakdown, and accidents, fail-safe circuitry against failure of the PLC
must be constructed outside the PLC.
Examples of a system and its fail-safe circuitry are described below:

4.3 Power Supply Wiring

This section provides instructions for wiring the power supply.
DANGER z Completely turn off the externally supplied power used in
the system when installing or placing wiring. Not

completely turning off all power could result in electric
shock or damage to the product.
z When turning on the power supply or operating the
module after installation or wiring work, be sure that the
module's terminal covers are correctly attached. Not
attaching the terminal cover could result in electric shock.
CAUTION
z Be sure to ground the FG terminals and LG terminals to

the protective ground conductor. Not doing so could result
in electric shock or erroneous operation.
z When wiring in the PLC, be sure that it is done correctly
by checking the product's rated voltage and the terminal
layout. Connecting a power supply that is different from
the rating or incorrectly wiring the product could result in
fire or damage.
z External connections shall be crimped or pressure welded
with the specified tools, or correctly soldered. Imperfect
connections could result in short circuit, fires, or
z Tighten the terminal screws with the specified torque. If
the terminal screws are loose, it could result in short
circuits, fire, or erroneous operation. Tightening the
terminal screws too far may cause damages to the
screws and/or the module, resulting in fallout, short
circuits, or malfunction.
z Be sure there are no foreign substances such as sawdust
or wiring debris inside the module. Such debris could
cause fires, damage, or erroneous operation.
z The module has an ingress prevention label on its top to
prevent foreign matter, such as wire offcuts, from entering
the module during wiring.
Before starting system operation, be sure to peel this
label because of heat dissipation.
Install our PLC in a control panel for use.
Wire the main power supply to the power supply module
installed in a control panel through a distribution terminal
block. Furthermore, the wiring and replacement of a
power supply module have to be performed by a
maintenance worker who acquainted with shock
protection. (For the wiring methods, refer to the QCPU
User's Manual (Hardware Design, Maintenance and
Inspection).)
82
(1) Wire the power supply lines for programmable controller, I/O devices, and
motor equipment separately as shown in (3).
(2) If there is much noise, such as lightning surge, connect an isolation
transformer.
For details on the isolation transformer, refer to the following section.

(4) 100V AC, 200V AC and 24V DC wires should be twisted as dense as
possible. Connect the modules with the shortest distance.
Also, to reduce the voltage drop to the minimum, use the thickest wires
possible (maximum 2mm2).
(5) Do not bundle the 100V AC and 24V DC wires with, or run them close to,
the main circuit (high voltage, large current) and I/O signal lines (including
common line). If possible, run them more than 100mm (3.94 inch) away.
83
(6) Momentary power failure may be detected or the CPU module may be
reset due to serge caused by lightening.
As measures against serge caused by lightening, connect a surge
absorber for lightening as shown below.
Using the surge absorber for lightening can reduce the influence of
lightening.

POINT
(1) Use the thickest possible (max. 2 mm2 (14 AWG)) wires for the 100/200V
AC and 24V DC power cables. Be sure to twist these wires starting at the
connection terminals. For wiring a terminal block, be sure to use a
solderless terminal. To prevent short-circuit due to loosening screws, use
the solderless terminals with insulation sleeves of 0.8 mm (0.03 inch) or
less thick. The number of the solderless terminals to be connected for one
terminal block are limited to 2.

(2) When the LG terminals and FG terminals are connected, be sure to

ground the wires. Do not connect the LG terminals and FG terminals to
anything other than ground. If LG terminals and FG terminals are
connected without grounding the wires, the PLC may be susceptible to
noise. In addition, since the LG terminals have potential, the operator may
receive an electric shock when touching metal parts.
(3) A system fault cannot be detected by the ERR terminal on the extension
base unit. (The ERR terminal is always OFF.)

POINT
(1) Use the thickest possible (max. 2 mm2 (14 AWG)) wires for the 100/200V
AC and 24V DC power cables. Be sure to twist these wires starting at the
connection terminals. For wiring a terminal block, be sure to use a
solderless terminal. To prevent short-circuit due to loosening screws, use
the solderless terminals with insulation sleeves of 0.8 mm (0.03 inch) or
less thick. The number of the solderless terminals to be connected for one
terminal block are limited to 2.

(2) Supply power to the redundant power supply modules in different systems
(redundant power supply system).
(3) When operating two redundant power supply modules (Q64RP) in parallel
as a redundant power supply system, it is recommended to use either
redundant power supply module as an AC power supply input and connect
an uninterruptible power supply to the other redundant power supply
module.
(4) When the LG terminals and FG terminals are connected, be sure to
ground the wires. Do not connect the LG terminals and FG terminals to
anything other than ground. If LG terminals and FG terminals are
connected without grounding the wires, the PLC may be susceptible to
noise. In addition, since the LG terminals have potential, the operator may
receive an electric shock when touching metal parts.
4.3.1 Precaution when connecting the uninterruptive power supply
Be sure of the following terms when connecting the Q series CPU module
system to the uninterruptive power supply (hereinafter referred to as UPS):
Use the online UPS or line interactive UPS with a voltage distortion rate of 5%
or less. For the off-line system UPS, use Mitsubishi Electrics F Series UPS
(serial number P or later) (EX.: FW-F10-0.3K/0.5K). Do not use any off-line
system UPS other than the F series mentioned above.
4.3.2 Cautions on power supply capacity
The Q64RP and Q64P automatically recognize the rated input voltage
waveform to switch the input voltage between 100VAC and 200VAC.
Select the power supply for the Q64RP/Q64P power supply module,
considering the power supply capacity. (Reference: At least twice as much as
the current consumption)
If the power supply of insufficient capacity is applied, the power supply module
might fail when 200VAC power is supplied.

4.6.3 Reset operation

For the Universal model QCPU, the RUN/STOP/RESET switch of the CPU
module is used to switch between the "RUN status" and "STOP status" and to
perform "RESET operation".
When using the RUN/STOP/RESET switch to reset the CPU module, moving
the RUN/STOP/RESET switch to the reset position will not reset it immediately.
POINT
Hold the RUN/STOP/RESET switch in the RESET position until reset
processing is complete (the flickering ERR. LED goes off).
If you release your hand from the RUN/STOP/RESET switch during reset
processing (while the ERR. LED is flickering), the switch will return to the
STOP position and reset processing cannot be completed.
Perform reset operation with the RUN/STOP/RESET switch in the following
procedure.

5. Specifications and Connections of I/O Modules

DANGER
z Completely turn off the externally supplied power used

in the system when installing or placing wiring. Not
completely turning off all power could result in electric
shock or damage to the product.
z When turning on the power supply or operating the
module after installation or wiring work, be sure that
the module's terminal covers are correctly attached.
Not attaching the terminal cover could result in electric
shock.
CAUTION
z Be sure to ground the FG terminals and LG terminals

to the protective ground conductor. Not doing so could
result in electric shock or erroneous operation.
z When wiring in the PLC, be sure that it is done
correctly by checking the product's rated voltage and
the terminal layout. Connecting a power supply that is
different from the rating or incorrectly wiring the
product could result in fire or damage.
z External connections shall be crimped or pressure
welded with the specified tools, or correctly soldered.
Imperfect connections could result in short circuit,
fires, or erroneous operation.
z Tighten the terminal screws with the specified torque.
If the terminal screws are loose, it could result in short
circuits, fire, or erroneous operation. Tightening the
terminal screws too far may cause damages to the
screws and/or the module, resulting in fallout, short
circuits, or malfunction.
z Be sure there are no foreign substances such as
sawdust or wiring debris inside the module. Such
debris could cause fires, damage, or erroneous
operation.
z The module has an ingress prevention label on its top
to prevent foreign matter, such as wire offcuts, from
entering the module during wiring.
Before starting system operation, be sure to peel this
label because of heat dissipation.
This chapter provides the specifications and connection diagrams of the Q

5.5 Wiring of I/O Equipment

(1) The wires used for connection to the terminal block should be 0.3 to
0.75mm2 in core and 2.8mm (0.11 inch) max. in outside diameter.
(2) Insulation-sleeved crimping terminals cannot be used with the terminal
block.
It is recommended to cover the wire connections of the crimping terminals
with mark or insulation tubes.
(3) Run the input and output lines away from each other.
(4) When the wiring cannot be run away from the main circuit and power lines,
use a batch-shielded cable and ground it on the PLC side.
In some cases, ground it in the opposite side.

Output
Shield
RA
DC
(5) Where wiring runs through piping, ground the piping without fail.
(6) Run the 24V DC input line away from the 100V AC and 200V AC lines.
(7) Wiring of 200m (686.67 ft.) or longer distance will give rise to leakage
currents due to the line capacity, resulting in a fault.
Refer to the troubleshooting chapter of the I/O Module Type Building
Block Users Manual.
(8) As a countermeasure against the power surge due to lightning, separate
the AC wiring and DC wiring and connect a surge absorber for lightning as
shown in (7) of item 4.3.
Failure to do so increases the risk of I/O device failure due to lightning.
146
6. Error Codes
If a fault occurs when the CPU module is switched from STOP to RUN or during
running (while the PLC system is ON), the CPU module will output the error
(LED indication) by the self-diagnosis function and store the error information in
the special relay (SM) and special register (SD).
REMARK
For the error code (4000H to 4FFFH) of the errors occurred on GX Developer,
intelligent function module or network system at request for general data
processing, refer to QCPU User's Manual (Hardware Design, Maintenance and
Inspection).
6.1 How to Read the Error Code
If an error occurs, read the error code, error message and so on using the
following GX Developer.
CPU Module
Q02 (H) CPU, Q06HCPU, Q12HCPU, Q25HCPU
Q12PHCPU, Q25PHCPU
Q02UCPU, Q03UDCPU, Q04UDHCPU, Q06UDHCPU
GX Developer
Version 7 or later
Version 5 or later
Version 8.48A or later
Use the following procedure to read the error code with GX Developer.
(1) Start GX Developer.
(2) Connect the PLC and peripheral device.
(3) On GX Developer, choose the [Online]-[Transfer setup] menu and specify
the port and the CPU module from which the error code will be read.
(4) Choose [Diagnostics]-[PLC diagnostics] menu.
(5) Clicking the Current error button in the PLC diagnostics dialog box
shows the error code and error message.
(6) Choose the [Help]-[PLC error] menu and confirm the definition of the
corresponding error code.
For details of how to operate GX Developer, refer to the operating manual of
your GX Developer.
