Precautions (Important Notes)

• Safety Standards: Always adhere to all applicable local and national codes and standards for electrical installation and operation to prevent equipment damage or personal injury.

• Power Budget: Ensure that the module's power consumption, along with other modules in the PLC base, does not exceed the power supply capabilities of the DL205 base. Consult the DL205 user manual for power budget calculations.

• Environmental Conditions: Install the module in an environment that meets the operating specifications (temperature, humidity, vibration) to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

• Wiring Practices: Use proper wiring techniques, including appropriate wire gauges and termination methods. It is recommended to use copper eye lugs crimped and soldered to stranded wire ends for good contact.

• Emergency Stops: For maximum safety, emergency stop circuits should be hardwired externally to the PLC, not through the controller.

• Firmware/Software Compatibility: Ensure that your DirectSOFT programming software version is compatible with the D2-08NA-1 module.

• Hazardous Environments: These products are generally not designed for use as on-line control equipment in hazardous environments requiring fail-safe performance (e.g., nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation).
