[1] -1 Category 1 (When SCON is not to be connected)
Note 1 : The gateway unit complied with Safety Categories (RCON-GWG) is not equipped with
a relay to switch over the lines by automatic identification of a teaching tool being
inserted to the SIO connector.
In this example of circuit, the electromagnetic contactor cuts off
the power input connector MP+24V on the gateway unit.
However, it is available also to have a circuit to cut off the drive
cutoff connectors MPO and MPI on each driver unit.
