■Precautions
Be sure to follow the precautions for wiring. Otherwise, some functions may not operate normally. (They may operate normally
temporarily.)
• The bending radius of the Ethernet cable is limited. For details, check the specifications of the Ethernet cable to be used.
• Place the Ethernet cable 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.
• When installing a cable, do not touch the core of the cable-side or module-side connector, and protect it from dirt or dust. If
oil from your hand, dirt or dust is attached to the core, it can increase transmission loss, arising a problem in a data link.
• Hold the connector part when connecting and disconnecting the Ethernet cable. Pulling the cable connected to the module
may result in malfunction or damage to the module or cable.
• Check that the Ethernet cable is not disconnected or not shorted and there is no problem with the connector connection.
• Do not use Ethernet cables with broken latches. Doing so may cause the cable to unplug or malfunction.
• For connectors without Ethernet cables, attached caps should be mounted to prevent foreign matter such as dirt or dust.
• The maximum station-to-station distance of the Ethernet cable is 100m. However, the length may be shorter depending on
the operating environment of the cable. For details, contact the manufacturer of the cable used.
• In a line topology, do not connect a device station with no IP address setting or a device station that is not in the master
station's network configuration between the master station and device stations, or between device stations. A data link may
not be performed between the master station and device stations with no IP address setting or device stations that are
connected after the connection of a device station that is not in the master station's network configuration.
• Communication with the Ethernet device may not be performed depending on the specifications of the connected Ethernet
device or industrial switch. If communications are not possible, reduce the communication data volume of the Ethernet
device.
Data link is not
performed.
