Notes on Safe Use of POD

In this manual, you will find various notes categorized under the following levels with the signal words “DANGER,”

and “CAUTION.”

Note that there is a possibility that the item listed with may have serious ramifications.

DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or

serious injury.

CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or

moderate injury and could cause property damage.

•Never use the input function of POD for operations that may threaten human life or to damage the system,

such as switches to be used in case of emergency. Please design the system so that it can cope with

malfunction of a touch switch. A malfunction of the touch switch will result in machine accident or damage.

•Turn off the power supply when you set up the unit, connect cables or perform maintenance and inspection.

Otherwise, electrical shock or damage may occur.

•Never touch any terminals while the power is on. Otherwise, electric shock may occur.

•You must put a cover on the terminals on the unit when you turn the power on and operate the unit. Without

the terminal cover in place, an electric shock may occur.

•The liquid crystal in the LCD panel is a hazardous substance. If the LCD panel is damaged, never swallow

the leaked liquid crystal. If the liquid crystal spills on your skin or clothing, use soap and wash off thoroughly.

•For POD using a lithium battery, never disassemble, recharge, deform by pressure, short-circuit, nor reverse

the polarity of the battery, and never dispose of the battery in fire. Failure to follow these conditions will lead

to explosion or ignition.

•For POD using a lithium battery, never use a battery that is deformed, leaks, or shows any other signs of

abnormality. Failure to follow these conditions will lead to explosion or ignition.

CAUTION

DANGER

•Check the appearance of the unit when it is unpacked. Do not use the unit if any damage or deformation is

found. Failure to do so may lead to fire, damage or malfunction.

•For use in a facility or for a system related to nuclear energy, aerospace, medical, traffic equipment, or

mobile installations, please consult your local distributor.

•Operate (or store) POD under the conditions indicated in this manual and related manuals. Failure to do so

could cause fire, malfunction, physical damage or deterioration.

•Understand the following environmental limits for use and storage of POD. Otherwise, fire or damage to the

unit may result.

- Avoid locations where there is a possibility that water, corrosive gas, flammable gas, solvents, grinding

fluids or cutting oil can come into contact with the unit.

- Avoid high temperature, high humidity, and outside weather conditions, such as wind, rain or direct

sunlight.

- Avoid locations where excessive dust, salt, and metallic particles are present.

- Avoid installing the unit in a location where vibration or physical shock may be transmitted.

•Equipment must be correctly mounted so that the main terminal of POD will not be touched inadvertently.

Otherwise, an accident or electric shock may occur.

•Tighten the fixtures of the POD with a torque in the specified range. Excessive tightening may distort the

panel surface. Loose tightening may cause POD to come off, malfunction or be short-circuited.

•Check periodically that terminal screws on the power supply terminal block and fixtures are firmly tightened.

Loosened screws may result in fire or malfunction.

•Tighten terminal screws on the power supply terminal block equally to a torque of 0.5 N•m. Improper

tightening of screws may result in fire, malfunction, or trouble.

•POD has a glass screen. Do not drop or give physical shock to the unit. Otherwise, the screen may be

damaged.

•Connect the cables correctly to the terminals of POD in accordance with the specified voltage and wattage.

Over-voltage, over-wattage or incorrect cable connection could cause fire, malfunction or damage to the

unit.

•Be sure to establish a ground of POD. Ground FG terminal which must be used for the unit. Otherwise,

electric shock or a fire may occur.

•Prevent any conductive particles from entering into POD. Failure to do so may lead to fire, damage or

malfunction.

•After wiring is finished, remove the paper used as a dust cover before starting to operate POD. Operation

with the cover attached may result in accident, fire, malfunction, or trouble.

•Do not attempt to repair POD at your site. Ask us or the designated contractor for repair.

•Do not disassemble or modify POD. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction.

•Fuji Electric FA Components & Systems Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any damages resulting from repair,

overhaul or modification of POD that was performed by an unauthorized person.

•Do not use a sharp-pointed tool when pressing a touch switch. Doing so may damage the screen.

•Only experts are authorized to set up the unit, connect the cables or perform maintenance and inspection.

•For POD using a lithium battery, handle the battery with care. The combustible materials such as lithium or

organic solvent contained in the battery may generate heat, explode, or catch fire, resulting in personal injury

or fire. Read related manuals carefully and handle the lithium battery correctly as instructed.

•When using a POD that has analog switch resolution with resistance film, do not press two or more points on

the screen at the same time. If there is a switch between the two pressed points, it may be activated.

•Take safety precautions during such operations as setting change during running, forced output, start, and

stop. Any misoperation may cause unexpected machine motions, resulting in machine accident or damage.

•In facilities where a failure of POD could lead to accident threatening human life or other serious damage, be

sure that the facilities are equipped with adequate safeguards.

•At the time of disposal, POD must be treated as industrial waste.

•Before touching POD, discharge static electricity from your body by touching grounded metal. Excessive

static electricity may cause malfunction or trouble.

CAUTION

[General Notes]

•Never bundle control cables and input/output cables with high-voltage and large-current carrying cables such

as power supply cables. Keep these cables at least 200 mm away from the high-voltage and large-current

carrying cables. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.

•Plug connectors or sockets of POD in the correct orientation. Otherwise, it may cause a malfunction.

•Do not use thinners for cleaning because they may discolor the POD surface. Use alcohol or benzine

commercially available.

•If a data receive error occurs when POD and the counterpart (PLC, temperature controller, etc.) are started at

the same time, read the manual for the counterpart unit and handle the error correctly.

•Avoid discharging static electricity on the mounting panel of the POD. Static charges can damage the unit and

cause malfunctions. Otherwise, malfunction may occur due to noise.

•Avoid prolonged display of any fixed pattern. Due to the characteristics of the liquid crystal display, an

afterimage may occur. If a prolonged display of a fixed pattern is expected, use the auto OFF function of the

backlight.

Notes on Handling the CF Card

1. POD can recognize a CF card in the FAT file system. It cannot recognize a FAT32-formatted CF

card.

2. Do not insert or remove the CF card during access. Doing so may destroy data on the CF card.

The CF card can be inserted or removed safely when the Main Menu screen is displayed. Before

mounting or removing the CF card, be sure to check that the CF card is not being accessed.

Doing so may destroy data on the CF card or cause CF card failure.

However, if the [Card Menu] switch is pressed on the Main Menu screen and the CF card

operation screen is displayed, it is not possible to insert or remove the CF card.

3. Do not turn the power off or on during access to the CF card.

4. Make a backup copy of the CF card at regular intervals.

5. If there should be a disk error and you cannot read/write data, you can scan the disk in Windows to

restore the disk data.

If not restored, initialize the CF card. Note that the data in the CF card will be completely deleted

by initialization. (For more information on scanning the disk or operating Windows, refer to the

Windows manual.)

6. The number of writing times per CF card is limited (approx. 300,000 times).

Consequently, frequent writing at short intervals may shorten service life of the CF card. When

using a CF card to save sampling data, be aware of the sampling time. Be sure to always avoid

writing to a CF card with the CYCLE macro command.

•One set of the UG230 is connected to one PLC (1 : 1 connection).

•The host link unit of the PLC or the CPU port is used and the UG230 (master station) establishes

communications according to the protocol of the PLC. Consequently, it is not necessary to have

the dedicated communication program on the PLC (slave station). The UG230 reads the PLC

memory for screen display. It is also possible to write switch data or numerical data entered

through the keypad directly to the PLC memory.

•For more information on wiring and communication settings, refer to the User’s Manual <PLC

3. n : 1 Connection (Multi-link 2)

•One PLC is connected to a maximum of four UG230 units.

•An original network is created where the UG230 (Local Port 1) that is directly connected to the

PLC is the master station, and other three UG230 are slave stations. Only the master station

makes communications directly with the PLC, and the slave stations make communications with

the PLC via the master station.

•Communications between the UG230 master station and the PLC depend on the communication

speed set on the PLC. The maximum available speed for the UG230 is 115 kbps, which is higher

than the one available with multi-link connection described in “4. n : 1 Connection (Multi-link).”

•This multi-link connection is available with almost all the PLC models that support 1 : 1 connection.

(The connection between the master station and the PLC is the same as the one for 1 : 1

connection.)

•Use the RS-485 2-wire connection between stations of the UG230. Please use Fuji’s multi-link 2

master cable (UG00C-H) for connection between the master station (local port 1) and the slave

station (local port 2).

•The UG230, UG30 series and UG20 series can be used together. The UG20 series can be the

master station.

(However, when UG220/UG221 is the master station, the slave station must be UG220/UG221.

Also, depending on the hardware version of the UG20 series, multi-link 2 connection may not be

supported. Refer to the User’s Manual <UG20 series Hardware> (FEH352).

5. Universal Serial Communications

•A general purpose computer or an ASCII unit of the PLC (master station) controls the POD (slave

station) using dedicated commands.

•The UG230 internal user memory addresses ($u) must be used for memory allocation for switch,

lamp or data display parts.

When the master station specifies a screen number, data is written to the internal memory address

($u) allocated for the screen. If the screen is switched internally, the new screen number is read

and is written to the internal memory address ($u) allocated for the screen.

•For 1 : 1 connection, the UG230 can send an interrupt to the master station through switch

activation, write command from the keypad, and screen change.

•Use MJ2 (or CN1 when the UG230A-DCL is provided) of the UG230 for connection with a

general-purpose computer. Either signal level RS-232C or RS-422 (RS-485) can be selected.

•In addition to 1 : 1 connection, 1 : n connection is available between the general-purpose

computer and the UG230 via RS-422.

(A maximum of 32 UG230 units can be connected.)

For 1 : n connection, interrupts cannot be used.

•For more information, refer to the User’s Manual <PLC Connection> (FEH380).

communications with the PLC.

When the option unit UG230A-DCL is installed, it is possible to use CN1 for communications with

the PLC, MJ2 for connection to the PLC using the temperature controller or PLC2Way, and MJ2 for

communications with a computer. Data of the PLC or temperature controller can be collected

through communications with the UG230. Data collection is available even between the products

of different manufacturers.

•Either signal level RS-232C or RS-485 can be selected.

With RS-232C, one UG230 unit can be connected; with RS-485, a maximum of 31 UG230 units

7. PLC2Way

•The “PLC2Way” function is an original network function where one UG230 can be connected to

two PLCs. Even if the manufacturers of these PLCs are not the same, they can be connected to

one UG230.

•Connect the first PLC to MJ2 (or CN1 when the UG230A-DCL is provided), and the second PLC

(PLC2Way) to MJ1.

•With the PLC2Way function, it is possible to communicate with PLCs without special program in

the same way as 1 : 1 connection.

Two PLCs that are connected to the UG230 are controlled at the same time, and memory

read/write operations are available with these two PLCs.

•Connection at MJ1 (PLC2Way) can be performed via RS-232C or RS-485 (2-wire).

With RS-232C, one PLC can be connected; with RS-485, a maximum of 31 PLCs can be

connected.

•Periodical reading/sampling of PLC data on the PLC2Way side

When read/write memory addresses are preset on the temperature control network/PLC2Way

table, background data reading is performed at regular intervals. It is also possible to save the

read data in the UG230 internal buffer, SRAM or CF card.

•Data transfer between PLCs

The PLC memory data can be transferred to another PLC in blocks using a macro command.

•For more information, refer to the User’s Manual <PLC Connection> (FEH380).

In the Event of an Error

Perform the steps below:

1. If the current error matches a symptom in the following table, correct it by following the instructions

provided.

2. If the error does not match the symptoms in the table, contact your local distributor.

Please provide the distributor with the information on the POD model, serial number, symptom of

the error, error message (if shown), etc.

Probable Symptoms

Symptom Cause Solution

POD is connected to the

PLC; however,

communication fails.

“Communication Error:

Time-Out” appears on the

screen.

Probable causes are: Solutions are:

1) Cables are not connected correctly or any

cable is disconnected.

1) Check the cable connection.

2) PLC parameter settings are not correct or

disagree with the POD settings.

2) Recheck the PLC parameter settings.

3) The POD is faulty. 3) Perform a self-loop test on the “I/O Test”

screen (page 6-7).

If the test is not successful, please return

the POD to your local distributor

immediately.

Communications have been

successful. However,

opening a certain page

always causes a

“Communication Error: Error

code received” error.

The error code denotes a PLC error (NAK).

1) When the error code appears only on a

certain screen, a memory address that

does not exist on the PLC may be set on

the POD screen.

1) Check if any address outside the allowable

range for PLC memory is set on the screen.

2) When the error code appears at power-on,

a memory address that does not exist on

the PLC may be set for communication

parameters, buffering area, initial macro,

etc.

2) Check if any address outside the allowable

range for PLC memory is set for

communication parameters, buffering area,

initial macro, etc.

Communications have been

successful. However,

“Communication Error:

Parity” or “Communication

Error: Framing” suddenly

occurs.

Noise may cause the error. Check if appropriate measures are taken

against noise.

Example:

Check if communication and power cables are

bundled together.

Try to attach a ferrite core to the

communication cable.

Try to attach a noise filter to the power supply,

etc.

7-6 2. Troubleshooting

“SYSTEM ERROR: xx”

occurs.

The following causes are probable, depending

on the symptoms.

1) Turning the power off and back on corrects

the error.

↓

Communication failed because of improper

timing.

1) If communication is stable after turning the

power on again, continue and observe

operation.

2) Turning the power off and back on does not

correct the error.

↓

A certain condition always causes the error.

Or the POD is faulty.

2) Make a note of the information on error

number, etc. displayed on the screen and

contact your local distributor.

3) A CF card is inserted.

↓

The CF card (front and back) may be

reversed.

If none of the above matches your error,

contact your local distributor.

3) Check that the inserted CF card faces the

correct side.

Switches do not work. 1) Switches do not work in the RUN mode. A

beep sounds.

↓

Is the switch interlock enabled?

1) Check the settings of switch functions, etc.

on the editor.

2) Switch activation position is wrong.

On the “I/O Test” screen displayed from the

Main Menu screen, press the [Switch

Check] switch. On the touch switch test

screen, a position different from the

pressed position is activated.

↓

The switch activation position may be

misaligned.

2) Perform a touch switch adjustment (page

6-14).

3) Switches do not work even in the STOP

mode.

On the “I/O Test” screen displayed from the

Main Menu screen, press the [Switch

Check] switch. When the touch switch test

screen is pressed, nowhere is activated.

↓

POD switches may be faulty.

3) Return the POD to your local distributor.

The screen becomes dark or

black.

Error Correction

Screen data cannot be

transferred.

1) Screen data transfer has never succeeded.

↓

There may be some errors in the settings

on the computer.

1) In the [Transfer] dialog box on the editor,

decrease the baud rate by one level. Also

check that the correct COM port is

selected.

2) Screen data transfer was possible, but is

disabled now.

↓

The POD may be faulty. Or, there may be

some errors in settings.

2) Check if the modem connection mode is

selected (“Modem Connect Mode”

displayed at the bottom of the Main Menu

screen denotes the mode).

Also perform an RS-232C self-loop test

(page 6-7).

3) Only serial transfer is successful.

↓

There may be some errors in the Ethernet

or USB settings.

3) Transfer via Ethernet

Check that the IP addresses set on the

editor and the POD are the same.
