MELSOFT MX OPC Server UA Version 3 Operating Manual -SW3DND-OPCUAS-E SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Read these precautions before using this product.) Before using this product, please read this manual carefully and pay full attention to safety to handle the product correctly. The precautions given in this manual are concerned with this product only. For the safety precautions for the programmable controller system, refer to the user's manual for the module used and MELSEC iQ-R Module Configuration Manual. In this manual, the safety precautions are classified into two levels: " WARNING" and " CAUTION". WARNING Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in death or severe injury. CAUTION Indicates that incorrect handling may cause hazardous conditions, resulting in minor or moderate injury or property damage. Under some circumstances, failure to observe the precautions given under " CAUTION" may lead to serious consequences. Observe the precautions of both levels because they are important for personal and system safety. Make sure that the end users read this manual and then keep the manual in a safe place for future reference. [Design Precautions] WARNING ● When data change or mode change is performed from a personal computer to a running module, create an interlock circuit outside the programmable controller, motion system, GOT, and robot to ensure that the whole system always operates safely. Furthermore, for the online operations performed from a personal computer to a module, the corrective actions against a communication error due to such as a cable connection fault should be predetermined as a system. [Startup and Maintenance Precautions] CAUTION ● The online operations performed from a personal computer to a running programmable controller CPU, motion CPU, and GOT (program change while a CPU module is in RUN state, operating status change such as RUN-STOP switching, and remote control operation) have to be executed after the manual has been carefully read and the safety has been ensured. 1 CONDITIONS OF USE FOR THE PRODUCT (1) Mitsubishi programmable controller ("the PRODUCT") shall be used in conditions; i) where any problem, fault or failure occurring in the PRODUCT, if any, shall not lead to any major or serious accident; and ii) where the backup and fail-safe function are systematically or automatically provided outside of the PRODUCT for the case of any problem, fault or failure occurring in the PRODUCT.
