EC Directives 6
• Changing the present value of any word or any set value in memory.
• Resume operation only after transferring to the new CPU board the con-
tents of the DM and HR Areas required for resuming operation. Not doing
so may result in an unexpected operation.
• Do not pull on the cables or bend the cables beyond their natural limit.
Doing either of these may break the cables.
• Do not place objects on top of the cables. Doing so may break the cables.
• Under no circumstances should batteries be short-circuited between pos-
itive (+) and negative (
−) terminals, charged, disassembled, heated, or
thrown into fire.
• When replacing parts, be sure to confirm that the rating of a new part is
correct. Not doing so may result in malfunction or burning.
• When transporting or storing the CPM2B, cover the circuit boards in anti-
static material to protect them from static electricity and maintain the
proper storage temperature.
• Before touching the Unit, be sure to first touch a grounded metallic object
in order to discharge any static build-up. Not doing so may result in mal-
function or damage.
• Do not touch the expansion I/O connecting cable while the power is being
supplied in order to prevent any malfunction due to static electricity.
• Do not touch CPM2B circuit boards or the components mounted to them
with your bare hands. There are sharp leads and other parts on the
boards that may cause injury if handled improperly.
• When disposing the product, observe local ordinances and regulations.

EMC Directives
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related
EMC standards so that they can be more easily built into other devices or the
overall machine. The actual products have been checked for conformity to
EMC standards (see the following note). Whether the products conform to the
standards in the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by
the customer.
EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC Direc-
tives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of
the equipment or control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed.
The customer must, therefore, perform the final check to confirm that devices
and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.
Note Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:
EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN61131-2
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference): EN50081-2
(Radiated emission: 10-m regulations)
