Cautions on connection  
• The current consumption of the GOT is as shown in the table above. When supplying the  
power to the GOT from the 24V DC service power in the FX Series PLC basic unit or exten-  
sion unit, take into account the total current supplied to proximity switches and extension  
blocks. If the total current exceeds the capacity of the service power, the GOT should  
obtain the power from an external power supply unit. In the case of the FX0/FX0S/FX0N  
Series PLC, an external power supply unit is required.  
• Even if instantaneous power interruption for less than 5 ms occurs in the power supply unit,  
the GOT continues its operation.  
When power interruption for 5 ms or more or the voltage drop occurs, the GOT stops its  
operation. However, when the power is recovered, the GOT automatically restarts opera-  
tion. (The screen displayed after recovery is determined by the operation environment set-  
ting.)  
• For wiring of the power supply, use electric wires of 0.75 mm2 or more so that voltage drop  
does not occur. Use crimp-style terminals of M3 size, and tighten them securely with the  
torque of 0.5 to 0.8 N m so that troubles will not occur.

<Cautions on connection of two or more GOT units>  
When two or more GOT units are connected to the FX/A/QnA Series PLC, communication is  
performed in the location sequence from the GOT unit nearest to the CPU (that is, in the  
sequence of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th GOT units). Accordingly, when turning on the power of  
the GOT units for the first time, turn on the power from the one nearest to the CPU.  
If the power cannot be turned on in the GOT units from the one nearest to the CPU, set the  
GOT units (in "SET-UP MODE") or the screen creation software so that communication is per-  
formed while the title screen display time is different by 2 to 3 seconds in each GOT unit.  
Setting example:The title screen display time is different by 2 seconds in each GOT unit, and  
communication is started from the GOT unit nearest to the CPU.  
FX/A/QnA  
Title screen display time (initial value: 4 sec)  
1st GOT: 4 sec 2nd COT: 6 sec 3rd COT: 8 sec  
4th COT: 10 sec  
* Perform the same setting without regard to the connection type (RS-232C or RS-422) of two  
or more GOT units.

Installation, Wiring and General Specifications 2.  
2.11 Connection by general-purpose communication  
The GOT can be connected to a general controller such as micro computer board.  
(The connected controller is hereafter referred to as "host (unit)".)  
• Outline  
In genera-purpose communication, the host unit is connected to the GOT via the RS-232C  
and functions as the parent station in communication. Inside the GOT, there is a data area  
to hold word data and bit data. The host unit can read and write the data area using com-  
munication commands.  
The contents of display and control in the GOT are determined by the screen data created  
using the screen creation software in the personal computer. The screen data specifies the  
layout of objects displayed on the screen, and specifies actions to be performed by pressing  
of touch keys.  
The GOT is equipped with the function to display the word data in the form of numbers and  
bar graphs, the function to access the data for changing the status of the bit data using  
switches, etc.  
The target of access is the data area inside the GOT. The data location to be accessed is  
specified by the screen data.  
2-35  
 
F940GOT-SWD-E/LWD-E  
Installation, Wiring and General Specifications 2.  
Accordingly, to display the data stored in the host unit on the screen, the host unit should  
transfer the data to the data area inside the GOT using write commands. The transfer des-  
tination is a location specified by the screen data. The data change result by manipulation  
of keys can be transferred from the data area inside the GOT to the host unit if the host unit  
gives read commands. In general-purpose communication, interrupt codes can be sent as  
change triggers.

Outline of maintenance  
5.1  
Cautions on startup and maintenance  
• Connect correctly the battery for memory backup. Never charge, disassemble, heat, put  
into fire nor short-circuit the battery for memory backup.  
If the battery for memory backup is handled in such a way, it may be burst or take fire.  
• Before replacing the backlight, turn off the power and remove the graphic operation ter-  
minal main body from the panel.  
If the backlight is replaced while the graphic operation terminal is attached on the panel,  
it may drop and injure you.  
If the backlight is replaced while the power is supplied, you may get electrical shock.  
5-1  
 
F940GOT-SWD-E/LWD-E  
Maintenance 5.  
CAUTION  
• Make sure to turn off the power before attaching or removing an extension module.  
If an extension module is attached/removed while the power is supplied, the contents  
stored in the memory or the EPROM memory itself may be damaged.  
• Never disassemble nor modify the unit.  
If the unit is disassembled or modified, failure, malfunction or fire may be caused.  
* For repair, contact MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC SYSTEM SERVICE.  
Turn off the power before connecting or disconnecting a connection cable.  
If a connection cable is connected/disconnected while the power is supplied, failure or  
malfunction may be caused.  
Cautions on disposal  
• When disposing of the unit, handle it as industrial waste.  
Consumable parts which may shorten the service life are not built in the GOT.  
However, the service life is 5 years in the battery, approximately 50,000 hours in the LCD  
and 25,000 hours or more in the backlight.  
It is recommended to replace these parts periodically using the procedure described  
below.  
In addition, inspect other equipment and pay rigid attention to the following points.

Replacement of battery  
When the battery voltage drops, the control devices for system information set by the screen cre-  
ation software becomes ON. The control devices are interlocking with auxiliary relays in the PLC.  
It is recommended to attach a lamp using the output of the PLC so that the ON/OFF status of the  
7th bit can be monitored from the outside.  
For the details of control devices, refer to the Operation Manual.  
Example :When the FX-PCS-DU/WIN are used.  
When the head No. of the control devices is set to M0.  
M6: Battery voltage drop Becomes ON when the battery voltage drops.  
This control device is used in a sequence program as follows.

Troubleshooting  
This section describes troubleshooting during operation.  
Power indication  
6.1  
When an abnormality has occurred, check the following points.  
The POWER LED in the GOT is lit by the 5 V power supply inside the GOT. When the POWER  
LED is extinguished, nothing is displayed on the screen or no key is accepted, the power sup-  
ply may be insufficient.  
Especially when the power is supplied from the FX Series PLC, the following points are sus-  
pected.  
1) Much sensor current is used.  
2) Many extension blocks are used.  
Disconnect all equipment except the GOT from the +24 terminal in the FX Series PLC, and  
check whether the GOT operates normally.  
When the display screen is dark, adjust "LCD CONTRAST" on the SET-UP MODE screen.  
When the screen is still dark, it is recommended to replace the backlight (F9GT-40LTS).
