z SAFETY PRECAUTIONS z (Read these precautions before using.) When using Mitsubishi equipment, thoroughly read this manual and the associated manuals introduced in the manual. Also pay careful attention to safety and handle the module properly. These precautions apply only to Mitsubishi equipment. Refer to the user’s manual of the CPU module to use for a description of the PLC system safety precautions. These "SAFETY PRECAUTIONS" classify the safety precautions into two categories: "DANGER" and "CAUTION".
[INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS] CAUTION z Use the PLC in an environment that meets the general specifications given in the User's Manual of the CPU module being used. Using this PLC in an environment outside the range of the general specifications may cause electric shock, fire, malfunction, and damage to or deterioration of the product.

4. Handling Precautions (1) Do not drop the module or cause it to receive strong impact. (2) Tighten the terminal screws for the module to the specified torque shown below. Insufficient tightening torque could result in shorts, failures or malfunction. Screw location Module mounting screw (M3 screw) Terminal block terminal screw (M3 screw) Terminal block mounting screw (M3.5 screw) FG terminal screw (M3 screw) * * Q68DAVN, Q68DAIN only Tightening torque 0.36 to 0.48 N·m 0.42 to 0.58 N·m 0.66 to 0.89 N·m 0.

5.3 Switch setting for intelligent functional module The settings for the intelligent function module are performed using the I/O allocation settings for the GX Developer. When the intelligent function module switches are not set, the default value for switches 1 to 5 is 0.
Point (1) Depending on the type of module used, the settings for D/A module output range are shown below. • Q62DAN, Q64DAN .... 0H to 4H, FH • Q68DAVN .................. 0H, 2H to 4H, FH 1: When the setting is 0H, the output operating range swill be 1 to 5 V. • Q68DAIN.................... 0H, 1H, FH (2) For Q62DAN and Q64DAN, leave the switch2 vacant. (3) For Q68DAVN and Q68DAIN, the switch 3 will set in binary. Setting will be easy if the input format is changed to binary number.
