Installation Environment
When installing and using the GT10, always make sure the following conditions are
observed.
Usage Conditions
When installing the product, make sure it is used within the range of the general
specifications. Do not use in the following environments:
-
Areas where the unit may come in contact with water (the unit is warranted by
IP65 for the installed panel, but this applies to initial values and operation cannot
be guaranteed in areas where the unit is constantly subjected to water or to
extreme temperatures or humidity).
-
Areas where the ambient temperature exceeds the range 0°C to 40°C/32°F to
104°F.
-
Areas where the ambient humidity exceeds 20% RH to 85% RH.
-
If the control panel and other parts are installed in an environment where the air
tends to be poorly ventilated, forced cooling should be used to keep the ambient
temperature of the from going over 40°C/104°F. This prevents the temperature of
the GT10 display unit from rising.
-
Locations where condensation may form because of sudden fluctuations in
temperature.
-
Locations where flammable or corrosive gases are present.
-
Locations where there are high concentrations of dust or iron filings.
-
Locations where substances such as organic solvents (thinner, benzene, etc.) or
strong alkali substances (ammonia, caustic soda, etc.) might adhere to the
product.
-
Locations where the product is subject to extreme vibration and/or impact.
-
Avoid installing the product near high-voltage lines, high-voltage devices, power
lines, power devices, amateur radio sets and other transmitters, and devices that
generate strong current surges.
-
Avoid locations where the display unit is subject to direct sunlight.
Safety Precautions
-
The switch functions of the programmable display unit should not be used to
design systems which may pose a threat to human life or which may cause
severe injury or damage. Designs should include safety mechanisms for use in
the event that switch functions do not function correctly.

2.1
Installation
Power Supply Wiring
-
For the power supply, use twisted wire (strand wire).
-
There is sufficient noise resistance to offset power line noise, but we recommend
reducing noise by measures such as installing an insulated transformer.
-
Separate wiring systems should be used for the power supply unit and the
operating unit.
Static Electricity/Noise
-
Keep the GT10 main unit, PLC connecting cable, and other wiring as far away as
possible from machines which are likely to produce noise (welding equipment,
power lines, inverters, motors, etc.).
-
For use in environments where the frequent occurrence of static electricity,
radiation, or induced noise can be expected, the use of shielded cable on all
wiring and grounding of shield (1-point ground) is recommended. When wiring
the equipment, shielded wires should be electrically insulated to signal lines and
signal grounds.
-
If excessive static electricity is applied to the panel surface, the LCD display unit
may be damaged.
Secondary Battery Service Life
-
The service life of the internal secondary battery is just under 2 years when used
in ambient operating temperatures of more than 40°C/104°F or when the
operating voltage exceeds 25V DC. Use caution when using the clock and device
hold area functions.
Other Precautions
-
Do not leave the GT10 connected to the TOOL port of the FP Programmer II.
-
Always operate the touch panel with your fingers. Excessive load (about 98
N/cm2 ) or impact (operating with tools, etc.) will cause damage. Touch panel
operation must be within the standard operating power range. Uniform pressure
should be used to avoid abnormal wear of electrodes which may disable
operation. Operate the unit only by touch.
-
Never dismantle, re-assemble, or alter the unit. Performance cannot be
warranted if this precaution is disregarded.

2.1
Installation
• Clearance when the GT10 is installed
When installing the GT10, if other parts are being installed to the
panel or cables are being wired to it, we recommend providing a
clearance of 30 mm to 50 mm/1.18 inch to 1.97 inch around the GT10.
This prevents cables from being damaged, and facilitates the
installation work. Also, make sure that the slits in the main unit are
never obstructed.

Wiring the Power Supply
The power supply should be wired by securely connecting the terminal on the rear of
the main unit to the terminal shown below. Always use crimp terminals for wiring.
+24 V
0 V
(D-type ground)
F. E.
Use twisted wiring for the power supply
In order to minimize influence from noise, the wiring for the power supply should be
twisted.
Insulate the power supply inside a protective circuit
- In order to protect the unit against abnormal voltage from the power supply line, the
power supply should be an insulated type, and should be enclosed within a protective
circuit.
- A non-insulated regulator is used with the GT10.
- If a power supply device without an internal protective circuit is being used, power
should always be supplied to the GT10 through a fuse or a similar protective device.
Keep the power supply voltage within the operating voltage range
Operating voltage range
21.6 to 26.4V DC
Use M3 crimp terminals
- The terminal screws are M3 screws. We recommend using crimp terminals for wiring
to terminals.

CAUTION
Because loose wiring is used for connection to the FP0 COM. port, no
dedicated cable is available. The cable should be provided by the
customer. When purchasing a cable, the following precautions should
be observed:
• Shielded wire with a size of AGW#28 to 16 (conductor cross-section
surface area: 0.08 mm2 to 1.25 mm2) should be used for connections.
• For wiring procedures, please refer to “Wiring the COM. Port” on
page 21.

Automatic Communication Settings Function
After turning on the power supply, if there is no response from the PLC connected to
the GT10, the GT10 switches to the automatic setting mode for the communication
conditions. In the automatic setting mode, commands are sent to the PLC while
changing the communication conditions in the sequence shown below.
GT10
PLC
(1) 9600 bits/s, 8 bits, odd parity, 1 stop bit
(2) 19200 bits/s, 8 bits, odd parity, 1 stop bit
(3) 115200 bits/s, 8 bits, odd parity, 1 stop bit
(4) Communication conditions set in GTWIN Configuration Settings
If there is no response from the PLC,
commands are sent to the PLC while
changing the communication conditions.
The GT10, in automatic setting mode, continues to repeat steps (1) to (4) until there is
a response from the PLC. While it is repeating these steps, it is in the “Standby” mode
under “GT10 Configuration” a “Communication Parameters” a “Handle Communication
Error” on GTWIN. For information on how settings are entered, please refer to page 61.
Explanation of this function
• Conditions when the automatic settings mode is in effect
If communication is attempted the specified number of times and
there is no response from the PLC, the GT10 goes into the automatic
settings mode. The number of attempts is specified using the “No. of
Retries” parameter under “GT10 Configuration” →“Communication
Parameters” →“Handle Communication Error” on GTWIN. For
information on how settings are entered, please refer to page 61.
• Automatically set communication conditions
In the automatic settings mode, if there is a response from the PLC,
subsequent communication is carried out under conditions matching
the response. The main unit configuration settings are not updated,
however, even if the communication parameters are different from
those of the main unit configuration settings.

CAUTION
• An error response from the PLC is taken as a response, and the GT10
does not go into the automatic settings mode.
• If the GT10 is connected to the COM. port of the FP0, FP1, FP2,
FP2SH, or FP-M, the automatic communication settings mode
functions only if the usage objective of the RS232C port is set to
“Computer Link”.
Always set the setting on the PLC side to match “Computer Link”.

CAUTION
• Precautions when using the through function
The system should be set up so that the interval for communication
retries in the FP series software (FPWIN GR or NPST-GR) (A) is larger
than that of the GT10 COM. port (B), meaning (A) > (B). If the system
is set up so that A = B or A < B, the through function will not work
properly.
• Restrictions on COM. port connections
If the GT10 is connected to the COM. port of the PLC, please be aware
that some functions cannot be used, such as rewriting in the RUN
mode in the FPWIN GR.
• Precautions when connecting the FP Programmer II to the TOOL port
If the FP Programmer II is connected to the TOOL port of the GT10,
the operating voltage of the GT10 should be set to 25V DC or less.
Also, the GT10 should not be left connected to the FP Programmer II
on an ongoing basis.
