Check points and countermeasures There is not data because the unit is new or the memory clear has been executed. Cause There is no screen data. Countermeasures Write the screen data using the screen creation software. A device that does not exist in the QnA Series PLC was referenced. (Example: While the QnA Series PLC was connected, a device provided only in the Q Series PLC was specified for numeric input.) Cause On the head screen, a nonexistent device in the connected QnA Series PLC is specified. (The head screen is the screen No. 1 in the GT Designer, and the screen No. 0 in the DU/WIN.) Countermeasures Check the devices used on the head screen. While the QnA Series PLC is not connected, the connection mode for the FX2 Series PLC is selected. Cause Check for the A or QnA Series was executed, the connection mode was automatically changed over, then the device range was checked. This error occurs when the device range set on the head screen is beyond the range for the A Series. (The head screen is the screen No. 1 in the GT Designer, and the screen No. 0 in the DU/WIN.) Countermeasures Connect the PLC. There is not data because the unit is new or the memory clear has been executed. Cause There is no screen data. Countermeasures Write the screen data using the screen creation software.

Caution on Use of MELSEC-Q Series PLC


When using the GOT-F900 connected to the Q Series PLC, observe the following caution on use.

11.5.1

Restriction in device specification


Word specification of bit devices and bit specification of word devices are not supported in the GOTF900.

11.5.2

Caution when the GOT is connected to the serial communication unit


When the GOT is connected, the CH1 and the CH2 of the serial communication unit cannot be used at the same time. (The setting "CH1: dedicated protocol format 5, CH2: non-procedural protocol" is available.) Accordingly, have in mind that connecting both GOT unit and peripheral equipment for the GPP function or two GOT units to one serial communication unit is not allowed.

However, a GOT unit (RS-232C) or a personal computer (USB port) can be connected to the QCPU while the computer link unit has one GOT unit.

11.5.3

Caution when connecting to Q multiple CPU system


1) Restriction in Device Monitor Function of GOT-F900 The PLC number cannot be specified on the screens for device monitor or sampling in HPP mode on the system screen. Hence, GOT-F900 monitors only the connected CPU. When a GOT is connected to the serial communication unit, the GOT monitors only the control PLC. 2) Restriction in Monitored CPU The GOT-F900 should be connected only when the system is configured with QCPU. If the system includes a motion control or CPU of personal computer, GOT-F900 should not be connected because monitoring cannot be performed properly even if it is connected to the QCPU.

13.3.4

Specification of Station Number in Creating Screen


An inverter can be selected out of multiple units concurrently used by setting the station number under numerical setting in screen creation for GOT-F900. The station number specified in the screen creation software corresponds to the station number specified for the parameter in an inverter. There are a direct and an indirect methods to specify the station number when creating a screen. If an individual screen is created for each inverter, it is a direct specification. Only one number corresponding to the inverter can be selected on one screen in order to edit its numerical value. If one screen is created for selecting an unit out of multiple inverters to edit its value, it is an indirect specification. It is more effective in screen creation because the inverter of which the numerical value is to be changed can be selected on one screen using the GOT-F900 internal data register (GD). 1) Direct specification When setting the device, specify the station number of the inverter of which data is to be changed. Setting range: 0 to 31 2) Indirect specification When setting the device, indirectly specify the station number of the inverter of which data is to be changed using the 16-bit GOT internal data register (GD100 to GD115). Setting range: 100 to 115 (Corresponds to each devive from GD100 to GD115) Setting example

13.4 Cautions on Use of FREQROL Series Inverter
When using the GOT-F900 connected to the FREQROL Series inverter, observe the following cautions on use.
Connection of MELSEC-Q Series PLC

Devices correspond to parameters of the FREQROL Series inverter. Accordingly, the device range specifications vary depending on the model. For the details of parameters, refer to section 13.6.
Device names and devices which can be monitored in GOT Control status (S) GOT internal bit register (GB) Alarm code (A) Parameter (Pr) Program operation (PG) Special parameter (SP) GOT internal data register (GD) a) Unsigned 16-bit $ $ $ $ $ b) Screen changeover $ c) System information/ control device $ $ d) Status monitor % $ $ $ $ e) Time switch f) Others $ $ $ $ $ $

In screen changeover, GOT internal data registers (GD) can be specified. Only GOT internal data registers (GD) can be specified for the system information of the GT Designer. GOT internal bit registers (GB) and GOT internal data registers (GD) only can be specified for control devices of the DU/WIN. In the status monitoring function, the alarm code (A) device cannot be specified as the operation device (word SET). In the control status (S) device, only one operation (bit) device can be specified. Because the time switch cannot use the bit device control status (S), this function is not available. The alarm code (A) device cannot be specified in the following devices. Recipe function Write device of operation panel (word SET) Bar code Numeric input ASCII input Operation device of touch key (word SET) Device for storing number of histories of alarm history Device for storing number of occurrences of alarm list
