POINTS OF CAUTION

■

CONFORMITY WITH EU DIRECTIVES

•The equipment must be mounted inside the instrument 

panel of a metal enclosure.

•The actual installation environments such as panel con-

figurations, connected devices and connected wires may 

affect the protection level of this unit when it is integrat-

ed in a panel system.  The user may have to review the CE 

requirements in regard to the whole system and employ 

additional protective measures to ensure CE conformity.

■

HOT INSERTION/REMOVAL OF MODULES

•It is possible to replace the module with the power is sup-

plied.  Be sure to replace it when the module is not com-

municating with a host, as it is possible to affect the sys-

tem.  However, replacing multiple modules at once may 

greatly change line voltage levels. We recommend that 

you replace them one by one.

■

POWER INPUT RATINGS

•Operational range & power consumption: Check the pow-

er rating for the unit on the specification label.

Rating 100 – 120V AC: 85 – 132V, 47 – 66 Hz, approx. 20VA

Rating 200 – 240V AC: 170 – 264V, 47 – 66 Hz, approx. 20VA

Rating 24V DC: 24V  ±10%, approx. 12W

ENVIRONMENT

•Indoor use

•When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the 

air, install the unit inside proper housing with sufficient 

ventilation.

•Do not install the unit where it is subjected to continuous 

vibration.  Do not subject the unit to physical impact.

•Environmental temperature must be within -10 to +55°C     

(14 to 131°F) with relative humidity within 30 to 90% RH 

in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.

■

WIRING

•Do not install cables close to noise sources (relay drive 

cable, high frequency line, etc.).

•Do not bind these cables together with those in which 

noises are present.  Do not install them in the same duct.

■

AND ....

•The unit is designed to function as soon as power is sup-

plied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is required for 

satisfying complete performance described in the data 

sheet.

INSTALLATION

Use the Installation Base Model R3-BS, or Model R3-BSW 

for free I/O address capability.

Before mounting the Network Interface Module onto the 

Base, be sure to configure the module as explained below.

■

DATA ALLOCATION

The setting determines the data area size assigned to each 

I/O module mounted on the base.

The data sent/received via DeviceNet is mapped according 

to this setting.

See “COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION”.

■

NODE ADDRESS & BAUD RATE

See “COMPONENT IDENTIFICATION”.

■

NETWORK SLOTS ON THE BASE

I/O 1

I/O 2

I/O n

With Model R3-BS base, mount the I/O Modules from the 

left end (I/O 1) to the right in order that the Network Mod-

ule assigns data areas from I/O 1.

Network Module(s) and Power Module are mounted basi-

cally at the right end though technically they could be 

mounted in any position.

With Model R3-BSW base, there is no limitation in mount-

ing positions as I/O address can be assigned freely to each 

module using rotary switches equipped on the base.
