Appendix 5 Interface specifications The following shows the specifications of the interfaces on the product.

Ethernet interface The following shows the specifications of the Ethernet interfaces.

The MI3000 determines the communication speed (1000BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, or 10BASE-T) and duplex

mode (full duplex or half duplex) according to the hub connected. To use a hub that does not support the auto-

negotiation function, set the communication speed and duplex mode of the MI3000 for the hub.

Ethernet cable Use an Ethernet cable that satisfies the following conditions.

Hub If you connect the MI3000 to an Ethernet network via a hub, use a hub that supports the communication speed of the MI3000.

Checking the operation status Check the LEDs on the Ethernet interfaces to check operation status.

The time from when an Ethernet cable is connected until when the LEDs turn on may vary. The LEDs

normally turn on in a few seconds. The MI3000 may try to connect to an Ethernet network repeatedly

depending on the status of the devices on the network, taking a longer time to turn on the LEDs.

If the LEDs do not turn on, make sure that the Ethernet cable has no abnormalities.

When the MI3000 communicates with any device on an Ethernet network at 10 Mbps, the left LED turns off.

Check the communication status using the Ping command or other methods.

product and affix the "CE mark" to the product.

The following shows the sales representative in the EU member states.

Company: Mitsubishi Electric Europe B.V.

Address: Mitsubishi-Electric-Platz 1, 40882 Ratingen, Germany

EMC Directive requirements The EMC Directive requires that equipment does not emit strong electromagnetic waves (Emissions: electromagnetic

interference), and the equipment is not disturbed by external electromagnetic waves (Immunity: electromagnetic sensitivity).

This product is compliant with the standards shown below.

The manufacturer of equipment incorporating this product must determine how to make the equipment compliant with the

EMC Directive and carry out the conformity assessment.

Installation on a control panel This product is an open type device (designed to be integrated into equipment) and must be installed on a control panel.

This restriction ensures safety and has a large effect of suppressing noise from this product.

Control panel The control panel must be conductive.

When bolting the top or bottom plate of the control panel enclosure, do not coat the plate and bolt surfaces so that they

contact each other. Connect the control panel enclosure and its door using a thick ground cable to ensure a low impedance

under high frequency.

When bolting an inner plate to the inside of the control panel enclosure, ensure the largest conductive area possible on the

plate surface. For example, do not coat the bolting area on the plate.

Ground the control panel enclosure using a thick ground cable to ensure a low impedance under high frequency.

The diameter of a cable hole on the control panel must be 10 cm or less. If the diameter of the hole is more than 10 cm,

radio waves may leak. To reduce the chance of radio waves leaking out, minimize the space between the control panel

enclosure and its door. Pasting an EMI gasket directly on the painted surface can seal the space, reducing the leak of radio

waves. Our test has been carried out on a control panel enclosure having the damping characteristics of 52 dB max. and 37

dB mean (measured by 3 m method with 30 to 300 MHz).

Connection of a power cable or ground cable Provide a ground point near the product to ground the product via the control panel, short-circuit the frame ground (FG)

terminal of the product, and ground it with the thickest and shortest cable possible. (The cable length must be 30 cm or

shorter.) As the FG terminal transmits the noise generated in the product to the ground, ensure the lowest impedance

possible accordingly. As the ground cable transmits noise, the cable itself carries a large amount of noise accordingly. Short

wiring prevents the cable from acting as an antenna.

Twist the ground cable from the ground point and the power cable together. Doing so can transmit a larger amount of noise

from the power cable to the ground.

APPX Appendix 6 EMC Directive 77

78

Noise filter (power supply line filter) A noise filter is a part to effectively reduce conducted noise.

Although installing a noise filter on the power supply cable is not mandatory, doing so can suppress a larger amount of noise.

(The noise filter is effective to reduce conducted noise in the band of 10 MHz or less.)

Use a noise filter equivalent to the following noise filters.

The following shows the precautions for installing a noise filter.

Do not bundle the input and output cables of the noise filter together. Doing so inducts noise from the output-side cable to

the input-side cable where noise has been eliminated by the noise filter.

Ground the ground terminal of the noise filter via the control panel with the shortest cable possible (approximately 10 cm).
