When designing the system, provide external protective and safety circuits to ensure safety in the event of trouble with the Motion controller.
There are electronic components which are susceptible to the effects of static electricity mounted on the printed circuit board. When handling printed circuit boards with bare hands you must ground your body or the work bench.
Make parameter settings within the ranges stated in this manual.
Use the program instructions that are used in programs in accordance with the conditions stipulated in this manual.
Some devices for use in programs have fixed applications: they must be used in accordance with the conditions stipulated in this manual.
