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

! CAUTION resulting in medium or slight personal injury or physical damage.
Note that the ! CAUTION level may lead to a serious consequence according to the circumstances.
Always follow the instructions of both levels because they are important to personal safety.
Please save this manual to make it accessible when required and always forward it to the end user.
[Design Instructions]
! DANGER
• Install a safety circuit external to the PLC that keeps the entire system safe if there are problems
with the external power supply or PLC. Not doing so may cause false output or malfunction,
leading to accidents.
(1) Outside the PLC, construct mechanical damage preventing interlock circuits, e.g. emergency
stop circuits, protective circuits, forward/reverse or other conflicting operation interlocking
circuits, and upper and lower positioning limit switches.
(2) When the PLC detects either of the following problems, it will stop arithmetic operation and
turn off all outputs in the case of (a). In the case of (b), it will stop arithmetic operation and
hold or turn off all outputs according to the parameter setting.
(a) The overcurrent protection or overvoltage protection of the power supply module is
activated.
(b) The self-diagnostic function of the PLC CPU has detected a fault such as the watchdog
timer error.
In addition, all outputs may be turned on when there are problems undetectable by the PLC
CPU, such as in the I/O controller. Build a fail-safe circuit or provide a mechanism externally
of the PLC to operate the machine safely at such times. Refer to the CPU module user's
manual for fail-safe circuit examples.
(3) Output could be left on or off when there is trouble in the output module's relays, transistors,
etc. So build an external monitoring circuit that will monitor any output signal that could lead
to a serious accident.
A-1 A-1
[Design Instructions]
! DANGER
• When overcurrent exceeding the rated load current or caused by a shorted load or the like 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 fuses.
• Build a circuit that turns on the external power supply after the PLC power supply has been
turned on. If the external power supply is turned on first, it could result in false output or
malfunction.
• 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 false output or
malfunction.
• 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 PLC CPU.
! CAUTION
• Do not bundle the control wires or communication cables with the main circuit or power wires, or
run them close to each other.
They should be run 100mm (3.94in.) or more away from each other.
Not doing so could result in noise that would cause malfunction.
• When the output module is used to control a lamp load, heater, solenoid valve or the like, large
current (approximately 10 times greater than the normal) may flow when the output is turned
from OFF to ON. Choose an output module having a sufficient rated current.
A-2 A-2
[Installation Instructions]

This chapter describes the general specifications of I/O modules and instructions for
selecting them.
1.1 General Specifications
Refer to the following manual for the general specifications of the I/O modules.
• Basic model QCPU (Q Mode) User's Manual (Hardware Design/Maintenance and
Inspection)
• High Performance model QCPU (Q Mode) User's Manual (Hardware Design/
Maintenance and Inspection)
1.2 Selecting Instructions
(1) If an output module drives an inductive load, it must be switched ON for 1 second
or longer and switched OFF for 1 second or longer.
(2) If a counter or timer which has a DC-DC converter as a load is used with an output
module, using an average current to choose an output module can cause a fault
due to periodic rush currents when it is turned ON or during operation.
To reduce the influence of rush currents for use of the above load, connect a
resistor or an inductance to the load in series or use a module whose maximum
load current is larger.
Resistor Load Inductance Load
Output Output
module module
(3) Fuses installed in output modules cannot be replaced. They are designed to protect
external wiring if the module outputs are shorted.
Therefore, output modules may not be protected from a short circuit.
If an output module becomes faulty due to any cause other than a short circuit, its
fuse may not function.
(4) The number of signals, which can be turned ON simultaneously in an input module,
varies according to the input voltage and ambient temperature.
Refer to the corresponding input module specifications.

POINT
(1) When using the module for the application in which the relay contact is
frequently switched, the relay life span should be considered. Therefore, it is
recommended to use a triac output module.
(2) The relay life curve shows the value based on actual use, which is not
guaranteed. Therefore, make sure to allow for a margin of error.
The relay life span differs according to the specifications as follows:
Rated switching voltage, current load 100 thousand operations
200V AC 1.5A, 240V AC 1A (COS =0.7) 100 thousand operations
200V AC 0.4A, 240V AC 0.3A (COS =0.7) 300 thousand operations
200V AC 1A, 240V AC 0.5A (COS =0.35) 100 thousand operations
200V AC 0.3A, 240V AC 0.15A (COS =0.35) 300 thousand operations
24V DC 1A, 100V DC 0.1A (L/R=7ms) 100 thousand operations
24V DC 0.3A, 100V DC 0.03A (L/R=7ms) 300 thousand operations
(3) Relay life is substantially affected by the load type and inrush current
characteristics.
The inrush current may cause the contact welding. Therefore, consideration
should be given to it as well as constant current.
(a) Inductive load
When the inductive load such as electromagnetic contactor or solenoid is
shut off, high counter-electromotive force is generated between the
contacting materials to produce an arc discharge. Consideration should be
made especially when the power factor is low, as it may decrease the life
period.
In addition, make sure to consider the contact melting, as the inrush current
equivalent to 5 to 15 times of constant current flows when the module is
powered on.
(b) Lamp load
Make sure to consider the contact melting, as the inrush current equivalent
to 10 to 15 times of constant current flows in the lamp circuit.
(c) Capacitive load
Make sure to consider the contact melting when a device such as condenser
is used in a load circuit, as the inrush current equivalent to 20 to 40 times of
constant current may flow in the circuit.
Also, pay full attention to the wire capacity if long length of wire is routed.
(6) 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.
(7) Use wires of 0.3 to 0.75mm2 core and 2.8mm (0.11in.) OD max. to connect to the
terminal block.
(8) Do not use I/O modules under pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure of
0m (0ft.) altitude. Doing so can cause a malfunction.
When using I/O modules under pressure, please consult your sales representative.

(9) Tighten the module fixing and terminal block screws to the torques in the following
ranges.
Screw Location Tightening Torque Range
Module fixing screw (M3 12 screw) 36 to 48 N•cm
I/O module terminal block screw (M3 screw) 42 to 58 N•cm
I/O module terminal block mounting screw (M3 screw) 66 to 89 N•cm
(10)There are the following restrictions on the thermal protections activated by

protected output modules.
The thermal protections are overload and overheat protective functions.
(a) QY40P, QY41P, QY42P, QH42P
Function Description
• If an overcurrent keeps flowing due to overload, heat is generated
Common
to activate the overheat protective function.
(Overload and overheat
• Each protective function is designed to protect the internal
protective functions)
elements of the module, not the external equipment.
• The overload protective function is activated in 1 point increments

(b) QY81P
Function Description
• If an overcurrent keeps flowing due to overload, heat is generated
Common
to activate the overheat protective function.
(Overload and overheat
• Each protective function is designed to protect the internal
protective functions)
elements of the module, not the external equipment.
• The overload protective function is activated in 1 point increments
Overload protective in terms of 1A to 3A/point.
function • The overload protective function returns operation to normal when
the load becomes a rated load.
• The overheat protective function is activated in 2 point increments.
(It is activated in 2 point increments of Y0/Y1, Y2/Y3, ..., and when
overheat protection is activated, that of 2 points is activated
simultaneously. If an overheat condition persists, heat transferred
may activate the other overheat protective function.)
• If an output turns ON at the activation of the overheat protective
function, the actual output voltage oscillates between 0V and load
voltage.
Overheat protective
At the load voltage of 24V, the average voltage during oscillation is
function
approx. 7V.
No oscillation is encountered when the output is OFF at the
activation of the overheat protective function.
To ensure that the output is turned OFF at the activation of the
overheat protective function, use an external load which switches
OFF at 7V or more.
• The overheat protective function automatically returns operation to
normal when heat reduces.
(11)Input modules may import noise or the like as an input depending on the pulse
width of a signal.
This pulse width has a value as listed below depending on the parameter-set

IMPORTANT
(1) The number of connectable I/O points is 32 for all connector/terminal block
convertor modules.
Two connector/terminal block convertor modules and two cables for
connector/terminal block convertor modules are required for 64-point I/O
modules.
(2) Though the A1SX81(S1/S2) is used either as a sink or source type, use the
A6TBX36-E, A6TBX54-E or A6TBX70-E.
The A6TBXY36, A6TBXY54 or A6TBX70 cannot be used.
(3) Though the A1SX82-S1 is used either as a sink or source type, the
A6TBXY36/XY54/X70 may be used only when the A1SX82-S1 is used as a sink
type.
When it is used as a source type, the A6TBXY36/XY54/X70 cannot be used.
(4) Though the A1SY82 is a source type output module, use theA6TBXY36 or
A6TBXY54. The A6TBXY36-E or A6TBXY54-E cannot be used.
(5) In the A series, the plus common input module is separately labeled as a sink
type input module, and the minus common input module is separately labeled
as a source type input module.
(6) When using the A6TBXY70 as a mixed input/output module, use at the input
side.

The Q6TE-18S shall be used attached to a Q Series terminal block type I/O module or
an intelligent function module.
Since the Q6TE-18S uses a spring clamp it does not require screw tightening, which
greatly reduces the number of wiring procedures.

(c) Cable Installation

Insert the tool into the square shaped hole, which corresponds to the
terminal you wish to use.
While the tool is inside the hole, insert the wire into the circular shaped hole
(as shown below).
Remove the tool from the square shaped hole, taking care not to remove
the wire.
After the wire has been clamped, gently pull the wire to confirm that it is
secure.

Wire strip length:

8mm to 11mm *
[Cautions]
* Take care that the wire strip length is between 8mm to 11mm.
If the wire strip length is too long, this will expose the bare wire, which increases the risk of
electric shock or short circuit.
If the wire strip length is too short, this will result in the wire not being securely attached.
(d) Cable removal

Insert the tool into the corresponding square shaped hall until it stops.
Pull the wire out of the hall completely.

a higher effect on periodic excessive noise.) If

no effects are produced by the above, take
basic actions to prevent excessive noise from
entering, e.g. avoid bundling the power and I/O
cables, and suppress noise by adding surge
absorbers to such noise sources as relays and
contactors used with the same power supply.)
<Calculation example of Example 4>

Consider a switch with LED indicator connected to the QX40, giving a leakage current
of 4mA when a 24VDC power is turned on.

(2) Calculate the resistor value R as indicated below.

To satisfy the 1.7mA OFF current of the QX40, the resistor R to be connected may
be the one where 2.3mA or more will flow.
IR: IZ=Z (Input impedance): R
IZ 1.7
R Z (Input impedance) = 5.6=4.14[k ]
IR 2.3
R<4.14k .
Assuming that resistor R is 3.9k , the power capacity W of resistor R is:
W = (input voltage)2 ÷ R = 28.82 ÷ 3900 = 0.2(W)
(3) The power capacity of the resistor selected is 3 to 5 times greater than the actual
current consumption. A 3.9 (k ), 0.6 to 1.0 (W) resistor may therefore be
connected to the terminal in question.
