Precautions for Safe Use 4
! WARNING
• Always ensure that personnel in charge properly perform installation, inspection,
and maintenance for the PT. “Personnel in charge” refers to individuals qualified and
responsible for ensuring safety during machine design, installation, operation, main-
tenance, and disposal.
• Ensure that installation and post-installation checks are performed by personnel in
charge who possess a thorough understanding of the machinery to be installed.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the PT. Doing so may impair the
safety functions.
• Always connect the emergency stop switch and enabling switch to safety circuits.
Serious accidents may occur if a malfunction occurs while the PT is connected to a
PLC or other controller. Do not use the function switches or switches on the touch
panel as input switches that may cause injury or damage property. Install monitor-
ing circuits or other devices in output signals that may result in serious accidents.
Construct the system so that switching of important operations is performed in
devices outside the PT.
• For devices and components connected to the PT that affect safety, use appropriate
products meeting the required safety level and safety category. System safety and
the appropriate safety category must be evaluated for the entire system. Consult a
certified third-party organization to determine the appropriate safety category.
• It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that system safety adheres to relevant stan-
dards.
• Connect the emergency stop switch, and enabling switch on the PT so that they
function according to stop category 0 or 1 described in IEC/EN 60204-1.
• Install or hand-hold the NSH5 when operating it. Do not operate the NSH5 on the
floor or on a tabletop.
• There are two types of switches on the PT, a red one for use as an emergency stop
switch, and a gray one for use as a stop switch. Use each of these for its intended
purpose. When using a PT with a red emergency stop switch, attach the cable from
the system securely so it cannot be easily disconnected. When using a PT with a
gray stop switch in an application where the PT is detached from the system, make
sure that the emergency stop switch and the stop switch can be clearly distin-
guished.
4 Precautions for Safe Use

• When unpacking the PT and peripheral devices, check that they are not
damaged. Lightly shake the products to confirm that no abnormal sound
is made.
• Use a power supply with the following specifications for the PT, and for
supplying power to the emergency stop switch, enabling switch, function
switches, and station detection.
• For compliance with the EC Directives (Low Voltage Directive), use a
power supply with reinforced insulation. Reinforced insulation refers to
a single insulation method that is capable of providing the same level
of protection against electric shock as double insulation.
• Do not connect the power supply terminals to an AC power source.
• Do not perform a dielectric strength test.
• Insert a 3-A fuse immediately after the secondary output from the pow-
er supply.
• Use a DC power supply with minimal voltage fluctuation.
Rated power supply voltage: 24 VDC (Allowable range: 20.4 to
27.6 VDC), Capacity: 10 W min.
xix
• Always use a Class 2 power supply for compliance with UL standards.

A Class 2 power supply refers to one in which the current and voltage
levels of the product’s secondary output are both limited (100 VA
max.), and which has undergone and passed the necessary tests for
UL certification.
• Properly ground the PT to prevent malfunction due to noise.
• Never touch the electronic components or patterns on product boards
with your bare hands. Touch grounded metal to discharge any static elec-
tricity before handling the PT.
• When connecting the cable to the PT, make sure to secure the cable and
the PT. Do not pull on the cable with a force greater than 60 N.
• Thoroughly check the wiring before supplying power.
• Turn OFF the power supply to the PT before connecting or disconnecting
the cable.
• Be sure to tighten the connector screws after connecting the cable.
• The entire system may fail to operate depending on how the power supply
is turned ON or OFF. Follow specified procedures for turning the power
supply ON and OFF.
• Thoroughly confirm operation of screen data, macros, and host program-
ming before starting actual use.
• Do not perform the following operations while the Memory Card is being
accessed.
Turning OFF the power supply to the PT
Removing the Memory Card
Always follow specified procedures for removing the Memory Card.
• To ensure system safety, incorporate programming at the host to periodi-
cally accesses a RUN signal to confirm that the PT is operating properly.
• Press touch switches with a force of 30 N max.
• Confirm system safety before pressing touch switches.
• Use caution when pressing touch switches if there is no display shown or
if the touch switch backlight is not lit.
• The inputs may not be read properly if touch switches are pressed in rapid
succession. Confirm one input before proceeding with the next.
• Confirm that the created screen data is backed up in the CX-Designer
before initializing the screen data.
• When changing the password in the System Menu, do not reset the PT or
turn OFF the power supply until the write operation has been performed
(i.e., until the Write Button returns to normal). The screen may not func-
tion if the password is not properly saved.
• When using the device monitor function, thoroughly confirm system safety
before performing the following operations.
• Changing present values for monitor data, timers, or counters
• Changing the operating mode
• Force-setting/resetting bits
• Changing settings for timers or counters

necessarily have the same general specifications as the NSH5, and may
not function properly if used in environments subject to static electricity or
other forms of noise. When using a USB hub, take sufficient measures to
prevent static electricity and other forms of noise, or do not install the PT
in an environment subject to such noise.
• Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
• The backlight in the PT cannot be replaced by the user. Contact your
OMRON representative for backlight replacement.
• Periodically check the installation conditions in applications where the PT
is subject to contact with oil or water.

6 EC Directives
Conforming Directive
The NSH5-series PTs conform to the EMC Directive.
EMC Directive Conformance
OMRON products are designed as electrical devices for use built into other
devices or the overall machine. As individual devices, they comply with the
related EMC standards (see note) so that they can more easily be built into
other devices or the overall machine. The actual products have been checked
for conformity to EMC standards. Whether they conform to the standards in
the system used by the customer, however, must be checked by the customer.
EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices will vary depending on the
configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the equipment or control panel
on which the OMRON devices are installed. The customer must, therefore,
perform the final check to confirm that devices and the overall machine con-
form to EMC standards.
Note Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:
EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN 61131-2
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference): EN 61131-2 (Radiated emission:
10-m regulations)
Complying with EC Directives

NSH5-series PTs comply with EC Directives. Observe the following precau-
tions to ensure that the customer’s device and the overall machine also com-
ply with EC Directives.
xxii
EC Directives 6
1,2,3... 1. Use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supply to
the PT. Ensure that a stable power output can be provided even if a 10-ms
interruption occurs at the input.
2. The PT conforms to the EN 61131-2, but the radiated emission character-
istics (10-m regulations) may vary depending on the configuration of the
control panel used, other devices connected to the control panel, wiring,
and other conditions. You must therefore confirm that the overall machine
or equipment complies with EC Directives.
The NSH5 is a Class A product for use in industrial environments. In residen-
tial environments it may cause radio interference. In this case the user may be
required to take adequate measures to reduce interference.

Touch Panel The touch panel is the same as the one for NS5-series Programmable Termi-
nals with touch panels. Connecting to an OMRON PLC by RS-232C or RS-
422A does not require a program. Function switches are also provided.
Safety Switches An emergency stop switch and an enabling switch are provided. Be sure to
externally connect them to safety circuits.
Use safety circuits that are capable of detecting shorts in the emergency stop
switch and enable switch.
1-1-2 NSH5 Models

There are two NSH5 models, one equipped with a red switch and the other
with a gray switch. The switching function is the same for both.
• NSH5-SQR10B-V2 (equipped with a red switch for use as an emergency
stop switch)
This switch functions as the emergency stop switch so the PT must be mounted
and used on a control panel in a way that it cannot be detached.
• NSH5-SQG10B-V2 (equipped with a gray switch for use as a stop switch)
This functions as the stop switch and can be used in either the hand-held or
mounted condition.

using the touch panel. The stop/emergency stop switch is for stopping
operation intentionally, and the enabling switch is for stopping machine
operation without taking conscious action.
The emergency stop switch (DPST-NC contact + NO bit) is allocated one
bit in the internal memory or in the host (PLC) memory and is hard-wired
to two external outputs. It has a direct opening mechanism.
The enabling switch (3-position DPST-NO) is hard-wired to an output. It
has a direct opening mechanism, a click mechanism, and a rubber cover.
• Ten function switches (SPST-NO) are provided. They can be used for
operations such as inching. Six of the function switches can be allocated
bits in internal memory or host (PLC) memory, and four of the function
switches can be output via hard-wired external outputs.
• Program-free connection is possible to an OMRON PLC via RS-232C or
RS-422A.
• A 5.7-inch TFT display with 256 colors (bit maps: 32,768 colors) is pro-
vided. (See note 1.)
3
• The external end of the Special Cable (3 m, 10 m) has both a 9-pin D-Sub
male connector, and loose wires for the stop/emergency stop switch,
enabling switch, and function switches.
• Screen transfers are enabled by connecting a computer running CX-
Designer to the USB port (standard feature).
• Project data can be shared with panel-mounted NS-series Programmable
Terminals.
• The Smart Active Parts library for NS-series PTs can be used.
• A Memory Card can be mounted to save screen data, data logs, opera-
tion logs, error logs, and recipes.
• The PT is waterproof to a IP65 degree of protection. (See note 2.)
• The PT features a lightweight 1-kg hand-held design.
• The removable box is automatically detected when it’s connected.
The box number is set using the DIP switch on the removable box.
When the PT is connected, the box number is automatically detected
and the screens corresponding to the box number are automatically
displayed on the PT. At the same time, the PLC can be notified of the
box number.
Note (1) PTs with lot numbers 05X0 and earlier have the following specification for
colors (because they have STN LCDs): 256 (bit maps: 4,096). Refer to
NSH5-series PT Lot Numbers on page 73 for information on lot numbers.
(2) Conformance is evaluated under applicable test conditions, and it may
not be possible to use the PT in every environment. When used over a
long period of time, the drip-proof packing may become damaged or dirty
and lose its effectiveness.

check for any damage. Gently shake the product and listen for any abnormal
sounds.
2-2 Power Supply and FG Wiring

2-2-1 Power Supply Wiring
Connect a 24-VDC power supply to the power supply input terminals. The fol-
lowing table shows the specifications for the power supply that can be con-
nected. Determine the power supply specifications so that the power supply
capacity is satisfied.
Item Specifications
Power supply voltage 24 VDC
Allowable power supply voltage 20.4 to 27.6 VDC (24 VDC ±15%)
fluctuation range
Power supply capacity 10 W min.
Wire the power supply input terminals to the 24-VDC power supply as shown
below.
24 VDC
(Functional ground)
3-A fuse
24-VDC interface at NSH5
Note (1) Do not connect an AC power supply to the power supply terminals.
24
Power Supply and FG Wiring Section 2-2
(2) Use a DC power supply with little voltage fluctuation.

(3) Do not perform a dielectric strength test.
(4) To comply with the Low-voltage Directive in the EC Directives, use a pow-
er supply with reinforced insulation. Reinforced insulation is a single insu-
lation method that can protect against electrical shock to the same
degree as double insulation.
Recommended model: S82K-03024 (manufactured by OMRON)
(5) Insert a 3-A fuse immediately after the secondary output from the power
supply.
(6) To comply with UL-recognized standards, always use a Class 2 power supply. A
Class 2 power supply refers to one in which the current and voltage levels
of the product’s secondary output are both limited (100 VA max.), and
which has undergone and passed the necessary tests for UL certification.
2-2-2 FG Wiring
The cable connected to the PT has a functional ground terminal (FG)
Wire them according to the conditions described below.
1,2,3... 1. If there is a ground potential difference between the NSH5 and the host,
install them as shown in the following diagram.
Do not ground the PT if there is a distance between the PT and the ground
and one-point grounding is difficult.
2. If the PT is installed in the same panel as a source of noise, such as a mo-
tor or an inverter, do not ground the PT.

model.
An NSH5 screen project can be created using screen data created for an ear-
lier PT. With the original screen project opened, it can be converted to an
NSH5 screen project by selecting Tool - Convert - Model from the menu, and
then selecting the NSH5-SQ0@-V2 or the NSH5-SQ1@-V2.
3-2 Emergency Stop Switch

The emergency stop switch can be used by workers to immediately stop the
machine when an error occurs during operation or when a hazardous situa-
tion arises. The emergency stop switch has a DPST-NC contact structure for
an external safety circuit. At the same time, a software condition (NO bit) can
be used for internal or host notification, making the overall combined emer-
gency stop switch a DPST-NC contact + NO bit switch.
Hard-wired DPST-NC contact
DPST-NC contact + NO bit
Software NO bit
Note Use the software contact to monitor the emergency stop switch.
When the emergency stop switch is pressed to the lock position, as shown
below, it will be turned OFF and locked. This prevents the switch from being
turned OFF by being accidentally bumped, i.e., it will not operate unless it is
pressed all the way to the lock position. An emergency stop can thus be exe-
cuted only through a clear and intentional action. The lock is cleared by turn-
ing the button clockwise (in the direction of the RESET arrows).
Lock position
Note (1) When detaching and using the PT in a hand-held condition, use the
NSH5-SQG10B-V2 (with grey switch). This functions as the stop switch and can
be used in either the hand-held or mounted condition. When using the NSH5-
SQR10B-V2 (with red switch), it functions as the emergency stop switch so the
PT must be mounted and used on a control panel in a way that it cannot be de-
tached. Both gray and red switches have the same switching function.
(2) The emergency stop must be enabled in all modes, and it must take high-
est priority over any other control operations. (ISO 13850, Item 4-1;
IEC 60204-1, Item 9-2)
(3) An emergency stop switch must be located near each control panel or
other operation site, and it must be accessible for rapid use in case of
emergency. (ISO 12100-2, Item 3-7; ISO 13850, Item 4-4; and IEC
60204-1, Item 10-7)
36
Emergency Stop Switch Section 3-2
(4) To ensure a secure stop, the stop category must be 0 or 1. (ISO 13850,

The following points apply to the emergency stop switch allocation.

• Only bit addresses can be set.
• Addresses can be set in either internal memory or host memory.
• System memory $SB cannot be allocated.
• No address is allocated for the default setting.
The NS Handy Terminal Tab can be selected only when the PT model is set
to the NSH5. It cannot be selected for any other PT model.

Enabling Switch Section 3-3
3-3 Enabling Switch

3-3-1 Overview
In contrast to the emergency stop switch, which lets a worker intentionally
stop the machine in case of an emergency, the enabling switch makes it eas-
ier to avoid danger with no conscious decision by a worker. When work is
required in hazardous areas, e.g, during maintenance, devices with enabling
switches provide an important safety measure by preventing unexpected
operations from occurring while work is underway in the those areas.
Manual operation of devices is permitted while the enabling switch is lightly
pressed. At soon as a hazardous situation arises, however, operation is
stopped if the worker instinctively either lets go of the enabling switch or
grasps it more tightly.
Some standards, such as the ANSI/RIA R15.06 and CSA/Z434-03 Industrial
Robot Standards and the ANSI/B11.19 Machine Tool Standards, require the
use of enabling switches. In EN 60204-1, enabling switches are not required
but are recommended as auxiliary devices.

• Only bit addresses can be set.
• Addresses can be set in either internal memory or host memory.
• System memory $SB cannot be allocated.
• No address is allocated for the default setting.
3-5 Memory Cards

Memory Cards are used for storing and transferring screen data, log data,
and system programs. This section provides an overview of Memory Card
functions. For details on the transfer method, refer to the CX-Designer Help.
3-5-1 Memory Card Applications

Memory Cards can be used at the PT itself. Log files can be saved to a Mem-
ory Card as CSV files. There are four kinds of log files, as shown in the follow-
ing table.
Alarm/event Stores alarm/event history data that has been registered by CX-
history Designer.
Data log Stores trend data.
Operation log Stores screen operation log data.
Error log Stores error log data for when macros are executed.
Log data is normally saved in internal memory that is backed up in the PT, but
can also be saved in CSV file format. When log data is saved as a CSV file, it
is stored on the Memory Card. The CSV files containing log data are saved in
the log folder created in the Memory Card.
The following data can be transferred using a Memory Card.
• System programs (programs required for operating the PT, such as for
communications and fonts)
40
• Screen data (data used in the PT display)

The transfer method is manual transfer (i.e., the data to be transferred
and the transfer direction are selected manually), and operations are
specified from the System Menu.
Note There are four recommended Memory Card models, each of which, has a dif-
ferent capacity.
Model Capacity Memory type

A Memory Card can be overwritten approximately 100,000 times. When using

a PC card socket in devices such as notebook computers, use an HMC-
AP001 Memory Card Adapter.
Note Use the Memory Cards recommended by OMRON. Operation may not be cor-
rect if other memory cards are used.
3-5-2 Mounting and Removing Memory Cards

Mounting a Memory Card
1,2,3... 1. As shown below, to mount the Memory Card to the Memory Card interface
first loosen the two screws securing the cover on the top of the PT.
41
2. After the screws have been removed, open the cover by pulling it up and
forward with a finger.
3. Insert the Memory Card all the way in. (As this is done, the eject button will
pop out.)
Note Tighten the cover to a force of 0.9 N.

Removing a Memory Card Press the eject button to remove the Memory Card. To prevent the Memory
Card from popping out and falling, hold the Memory Card with your index fin-
ger while pushing the eject button with your middle finger.
3-5-3 Replacing the System Program

The system program in the PT can be replaced or upgraded to a higher ver-
sion. There are two methods that can be used to replace the system program.
• Using a recovery/upgrade program
• Transferring system program data
Note (1) The system program must be version 8.0 or higher to be installed.
(2) Consult your OMRON representative if a system program of a version
lower than 8.0 is to be installed.
(3) Use the recovery/update program to install the system program.
Using a Recovery/ Replace the system program if the system program becomes corrupted and
Upgrade Program the NSH5 will not start or to upgrade the system program in the NSH5.
For details on the replacing the system program by using the recovery/update
program, select Start - Program - OMRON - CX-One - CX-Designer - How
to recover the system program.
42
Refer to information on the procedure for recovery and update and to the
Setup Manual for troubleshooting information if an error is displayed when you
use the recovery/update program.
Transferring System The System Program is stored under the CX-Designer's install folder (default
Program Data location is C:\Program Files\Omron\CX-One\CX-Designer) in folders that are
created for each type and version, as follows:
\SystemBackup\NSH5\V@_@\bank1: NSH5 system program
(“@_@” will be replaced by numbers indicating the system program version.
For example “V7_0” is the file for version 7.0.)
To replace a system program, use Windows Explorer or another method to

copy each of the folders for the required system program under \bank1 to the
route directory of the Memory Card.
For details on methods for transferring data from the Memory Card to the PT,
refer to 3-5-4 Transferring Data with Memory Cards.
The system backup folder can be created only if CX-Designer is installed from
the stand-alone CD-ROM. If the CX-Designer is installed from CX-One, rein-
stall the system program by following the procedure for using a recovery/
update program described above.
3-5-4 Transferring Data with Memory Cards

Using a Memory Card with the PT allows system programs (programs
required for operating the PT, such as programs for communications and
fonts) and screen data to be transferred to and from the PT.
There are several types of data transfers, including manual transfers (in which
the data to be transferred and the direction of transfer are selected manually),
downloads (in which data is transferred automatically from the Memory Card
to the PT), uploads (in which data is transferred automatically from the PT to
the Memory Card), and bank specifications (four banks max.). The transfer
method is specified using the System Menu.
Note (1) Before transferring data, check to be sure that the system programs and
screen data types match those in the PT.
(2) Do not perform the following operations while accessing the Memory
Card. The data may be damaged and the Memory Card may need to be
formatted.
• Turning OFF the power to the PT.
• Removing the Memory Card.
Always follow the correct procedure for removing a Memory Card.
If the PT system has been damaged due to the power being turned OFF while
a file is being written, it may not be possible to use normal downloading to
replace a system program. If this situation occurs, refer to Troubleshooting
below.
Manual Transfer Use screen operations to select the transfer direction (download, upload),
contents (project, project & system program, or system program), and banks.
Use the following procedure to manually transfer data.
1,2,3... 1. Turn ON the power to the PT.

2. Insert the Memory Card into the PT.
3. Simultaneously press two of the four corners of the PT touch panel to dis-
play the System Menu Screen.
43
4. Display the Special Screen Tab Page under system settings, and execute
Memory Card transfer on page 2-2 of the screen.
5. Select the display language. The following screen will be displayed at the
PT if English is the language selected.
6. Specify the transfer direction (download, upload), contents (project, project

& system program, or system program), and bank. The IPP file name and
system version that are stored in both the specified bank of the Memory
Card and the PT will be displayed in the Project File and System Version
fields.
7. Check the contents, and the press the Go! Button. A message asking for
confirmation of the transfer will be displayed.
8. Press the Yes Button to execute the specified data transfer operation.
When data is downloaded, the screen data previously stored in the PT will
be deleted.
9. A warning message will be displayed if the PT model, system program,
screen data version, or language for the language stored in the PT are dif-
ferent from that for the data stored in the Memory Card. Press the Yes But-
ton to continue the data transfer.
10. While the data is being transferred, an uploading or downloading screen
will be displayed. A screen indicating that the transfer has been completed
will be displayed when the data transfer is finished. (If an error occurs, a
transfer error screen will be displayed. If that occurs, refer to Troubleshoot-
ing below.)
11. The indicator will flash green when the data transfer has been completed.
At this point the Memory Card can be removed.
12. Press the Reset Button to reset the PT.
If the wrong data is downloaded, execute the transfer operation again.
The system settings (set in the System Setting using the CX-Designer) are
not changed for the upload operation.

The USB port can be used to transfer screens created by the CX-Designer.
For details, refer to the NS Series Setup Manual (Cat. No. V083-E1).
3-6-1 Connecting to the USB Port

Open the cover on top of the PT, as shown in the following diagram, and con-
nect a commercially available USB cable to the USB port. (For details on
opening the cover, refer to 3-5 Memory Cards.)
3-7 Usable Host Connection Methods

The NSH5 has one serial port corresponding to serial port A in the NS Series,
for connecting to the PLC. Unlike with the NS Series, it is not possible to con-
nect using serial port B, the Ethernet port, or Controller Link. When using CX-
Designer to set the connection method, do not set any communications ports
other than serial port A.
The communications methods shown in the following table can be set, using
the serial port.
Host connection method Usability
1:N NT Link OK (See note 1.)
1:1 NT Link OK
Host Link OK
(Host Link OK with restrictions) (See note 2.)
Note (1) Only one NSH5 can be connected to any one communications port on the
PLC. More than one PT cannot be connected at the same time.
(2) Only PT memory can be allocated as the notification destination for the
emergency stop switch and function switches F3 to F5 and F8 to F10.
Host allocations are not possible.
The PT can also communicate with the following products:
• Mitsubishi FX-series, A-series, and Q-series PLCs
• SIEMENS S7-300-series PLCs
• Yaskawa MP-series Machine Controllers
• Yaskawa Varispeed F7-series and VS mini V7-series Inverters
• Rockwell Automation (Allen-Bradley) SLC500, MicroLogix, PLC-5, Com-
pactLogix, and ControlLogix Controllers

Station Detection Function Section 3-8
• Yokogawa FA-M3 Series PLCs

Refer to the Host Connection Manual (Multivendor Connection) for connection
methods.
3-8 Station Detection Function

The station detection function allows the NSH5 to read the box number
switches (4-bit switches) for removable boxes. Thus, when a removable box is
connected, the NSH5 is able to detect it.
By automatically displaying station screens, and by giving notification of which
station the PLC is currently in, the stations that can be operated can be lim-
ited. To ensure safety, other forms of operation are disabled.
Internal Memory The PT’s station detection function can be allocated any address in the inter-
Allocation nal memory, and the ON/OFF status can be monitored at the allocated
address.
To specify the address in internal memory that is to be allocated for the station
status monitor address, first select PT - System Setting in CX-Designer ver-
sion 6.5 or higher, and then click the NS Handy Terminal Tab. In the Station
Status Monitor Address Field, click the appropriate Set Button, and specify
the address that is to be allocated.
When removable boxes are used, the station numbers for the removable
boxes are acquired and notification is provided to one word in either $W or
$HW in PT memory. If function key status cannot be obtained due to a prob-
lem, such as a hardware error, or when a status error flag for an error, such as
a communications error, is generated, notification is provided to the same
word.
Bit allocations within the word is as follows:
Bit Name Status
Bit 15 Board Error Bit ON: Error
Bit 14 Host Communications Error Bit OFF: Normal
Bit 13 Reserved ---
Bit 12 Reserved ---
Bit 11 Reserved ---

4-1 Overview of Removable Box

An NSH5-AL001 Removable Box can be connected between the NSH5-
SQG10B-V2 PT (the model with a gray stop switch) and the host PLC to
enable easily attaching and detaching the NSH5 without affecting the wiring to
the PLC or safety circuits. The Removable Box also enables converting
between RS-232C and RS-422A.
The Removable Box is equipped with a rotary switch to set the station number
used to identify the Removable Box and a DIP switch for setting RS-422A
communications conditions.
System Configuration The NSH5 PT is connected to a PLC through the Removable Box. Always use
an NSH5-232CN-3M/10M Special Cable to connect the NSH5 PT to the
Removable Box.

Use twisted-pair wires for SDB and SDA, and for RDB and RDA.
Note (1) Ground the shield only to the host (PLC) to prevent malfunctions due to
ground potential differences.
(2) Recommended cables: TKVVBS4P-03 (100 m Tachii Electric Wire) or
AWG22 shielded cable.
Ground and Shield Wiring Perform the following connections, shield wiring, and grounding in any com-
munications system using the Removable Box. Incorrect connections may
cause a host communications error.
• Connecting the Removable Box D-Sub Connector
Be sure to fasten the screws on both sides of the D-Sub connector. If
these screws are not fastened, the NSH5 PT's functional ground terminal
and the Removable Box's FG will not be connected.
• Ground Line Wiring
The Removable Box is equipped with a functional ground ( ).
1. Normally, ground the Removable Box as shown in Figure A on the fol-
lowing page.
• Connect the ground terminals on all Units and the functional ground,
and ground the line at one location to 100 Ω or less.
• Short the PLC's LG terminal and the GR terminal.
• The ground wire must be 2 mm2 or larger.
• For detailed grounding instructions, refer to the operation manual for
the Communications Unit.
2. If a source of noise, such as a motor or inverter, is grounded to the same
panel, do not ground the Removable Box's functional ground terminal
( ), as shown in the Figure B.
• RS-422A Cable Shield Wiring
Be sure to connect the shield on the RS-422A cable. If the shield is not
connected, a host communications error may occur.

Maintenance Section 5-1
5-1 Maintenance
Perform maintenance operations to keep the NSH5-series PT in optimum
condition.
!WARNING Do not disassemble the PT or touch the inside of the PT while the power is
turned ON. Doing so may result in electrical shock.
Backing Up Project Data Be sure to back up project data and store it in a secure location, in case the
PT should have to be sent out for repairs or be replaced.
Keeping a Spare PT It is recommended that a spare PT be kept on hand, in order to enable faster
system recovery in case the original PT should be damaged or the screen
cannot be read due to reaching the end of the backlight service.
Replacing the Backlight If the brightness of the backlight is diminished and the screen becomes diffi-
cult to read, the backlight must be replaced. A backlight cannot be replaced by
the user. If this situation occurs, please contact an OMRON representative.
Ordinarily a backlight would need to be replaced after approximately 75,000
hours at normal temperature and humidity. The service life is shortened in an
extremely cold environment. Replace the backlight if the brightness dimin-
ishes and the screen becomes difficult to read.
Replacing the Battery Screen data such as calendars, clocks, and log data are backed up by a lith-
ium battery. The battery service life is approximately five years when used in
an environment with a temperature of 25°C. If the temperature at the location
of use is higher than this, the battery life will be shortened. Change the battery
at suitable intervals in accordance with the operating environment.
It is recommended that a spare battery be kept on hand so that the battery
can be quickly replaced when necessary.
Replacement Battery
The replacement battery shown below is a lithium battery for backing up the
memory contents.
Model Specifications
CJ1W-BAT01 Replacement battery for the NSH5
Replacement Criteria

• When five years have elapsed since a new battery was last installed
• Within five days of when the RUN indicator turns orange
Note (1) Never use a battery that has been subjected to any strong impact, such
as being dropped on the floor, as the battery may lead fluid.
(2) Before installing a battery, check the battery type and be sure to install it
correctly.

4. Attach the back cover to the NSH5.
5-2 Inspection and Cleaning

Clean and inspect the NSH5-series PT regularly to ensure that it is always
used under optimum conditions.
Cleaning If the display gets dirty, the screen becomes difficult to read. Clean the screen
periodically as follows:
• Wipe the display daily with a dry, soft cloth. If the soil is particularly heavy,
attempting to remove it by wiping with a dry cloth may damage the front
sheet of the PT. In that case, wipe it with a damp cloth.
• If the soiling cannot be wiped off with a dry cloth, wet the cloth with diluted
neutral detergent (2%) and wring it out well before using it.
• If rubber or vinyl products, tape, etc., are left stuck to the display for long
periods, they will cause staining. If such items are stuck to the display,
remove them during cleaning.
Note Never use chemical dusters or volatile solvents such as benzenes or thinners.
Inspection Interval In normal environments, inspect the PT at intervals of six months to one year.
If the PT is used in an environment that is extremely hot and humid, or very
dusty, shorten the inspection interval.
65
Inspection and Cleaning Section 5-2
Items to Inspect Inspect the following items to determine whether there is any divergence from
the stated criteria. If there is, either improve the surrounding environment so
that the values fall within the stated range, or adjust the PT by, for example, re-
tightening screws.

5-4 Precautions When Replacing the PT

If a fault is discovered in the inspection and the PT must be replaced, observe
the following precautions.
• Before replacing the PT, back up all of the PT’s project data. If the PT is
repaired by OMRON, the project data may be deleted.
• Before replacing the PT, be sure to turn OFF the power supply.
• After replacing the PT, check to be sure that there are no errors in the new
PT.
If the PT is to be returned to OMRON for repair, attach a document to the PT

To ensure safe operation in an assembly robot line, be sure to establish an overall equipment safety policy in
line with the ISO 13849 safety category.
Assuring safe operation involves installing various safety equipment, and robots must be taught at the time that
production lines are set up. Humans must also sometimes perform tasks in hazardous areas. The procedure
below describes how to use the enabling switch when bringing a device such as the NSH5 close to a robot to
perform operations.
1. Hold the NSH5 (5 in the diagram) enabling switch in the middle position.
2. Turn the enable mode switch (4) from normal mode to enable mode. While teaching, the door interlock
switch (1) is disabled and the disable monitor lamp (7) lights.
The reasons for installing the switch are as follows:
• It restricts the personnel doing the teaching to those who have a key.
• It makes personnel conscious of teaching and entering a hazardous area.
• Operations from outside are disabled while teaching is in progress.
• The door interlock switch signal (1) can be controlled by the enabling switch.
• The disable monitor lamp is lit to let other personnel in the area know that teaching is in progress.
3. Carry the NSH5 into the hazardous area and perform the operation.
4. If either the enabling switch or the emergency stop switch is actuated during operation, use the reset switch
(6) to manually reset the equipment.
5. The emergency stop switch (2) is always enabled.
Block Diagram When a Relay Unit Is Used

1. In normal mode, safety line 1 is enabled, and the door interlock switch (1) is enabled by the Safety Relay
Unit.
2. Enable Safety Relay Unit 2 by holding the NSH5’s enabling switch in the middle position.
3. Turn the enable mode switch (4) from normal mode to enable mode, and switch from safety line 1 to safety
line 2.
4. Always keep the emergency stop switch (2) ready to operate.
5. If either the enabling switch or the emergency stop switch is actuated during operation, use the reset switch
(6) to manually reset the equipment.

Detection Method for NSH5 Disconnected Status

When the NSH5 is not connected to any Removable Box, the station number sent to the PLC must be cleared.
Use one of the following methods to clear the station number.
• Monitoring the signal from the terminal block
• Monitoring $SB0 and $SB1 in NSH5 system memory
• Monitoring the Signal from the Terminal Block
I/O connected to the Removable Box's terminal block terminals CONECT1 and CONECT2 turn ON while
the NSH5 is connected to the Removable Box and turn OFF while the NSH5 is not connected. Therefore,
add programming to the ladder diagram so that the PLC clears the station number stored in DM00200
when the I/O turns OFF.
• Monitoring $SB0 and $SB1 in NSH5 System Memory
While the NSH5 is operating, $SB0 in system memory is periodically turned ON and OFF and $SB1 is
always ON. As a result, if the NSH5 and PLC are connected, the PLC address allocated to $SB0 is also
periodically turned ON and OFF.
Therefore, add programming to the ladder diagram so that the PLC clears the station number stored in
DM00200 when the PLC address allocated to $SB0 does not change for a specified period of time (indicat-
ing that the NSH5 and Removable Box are not connected).

Note If more than one NSH5 PT is connected at the same time, be sure not to set the system memory
addresses or station numbers for more than one PT. If system memory addresses are duplicated, oper-
ation problems can occur, such as all NSH5 PTs displaying the same screen.
5. Transferring Project Data
Connect the personal computer running CX-Designer to the NSH5 and transfer the project data (station
number screen data and other items) to the NSH5.
6. Operation Check
Perform the following steps to check if the project data settings have been correctly entered.
(1) Connect NSH5 PTs 1, 2, and 3 to Removable Boxes 1, 3, and 8, respectively, and turn ON each
Removable Box key switches. The NSH5 PTs will start. After each NSH5 PT starts, the initial display
screen (screen 0) will appear. Also, the numbers 1, 3, and 8 will be stored in the Station Status Monitor
Address, $W1000, for NSH5 PTs 1, 2, and 3, respectively.
(2) After $SB1 is turned ON in each NSH5 PT, the “When a bit changed” macro is executed. In NSH5 No.
1, the code “WRITECMEM(SERIALA:DM00200, $W1000,1);” writes 2 to DM00200, and the code
“SHOWPAGE($W1000);” changes the screen to the screen for station number 2 (screen 2). Similarly,
NSH5 No. 2 writes 3 to DM00201, which displays screen 3. Finally, NSH5 No. 3 writes 8 to DM00202,
which displays screen 8.

Detection Method for NSH5 Disconnected Status

When the NSH5 is not connected to any Removable Box, the station number sent to the PLC must be cleared.
Use one of the following methods to clear the station number.
• Monitoring the signal from the terminal block
• Monitoring $SB0 and $SB1 in NSH5 system memory
• Monitoring the Signal from the Terminal Block
I/O connected to the Removable Box's terminal block terminals CONECT1 and CONECT2 turn ON while
the NSH5 is connected to the Removable Box and turn OFF while the NSH5 is not connected. Therefore,
add programming to the ladder diagram so that the PLC clears the station number stored in DM00200,
DM00201, and DM00202 when the I/O turns OFF.
• Monitoring $SB0 and $SB1 in NSH5 System Memory
While the NSH5 is operating, $SB0 in system memory is periodically turned ON and OFF and $SB1 is
always ON. As a result, if the NSH5 and PLC are connected, the PLC address allocated to $SB0 is also
periodically turned ON and OFF.
Therefore, add programming to the ladder diagram so that the PLC clears the station number stored in
DM00200, DM00201, and DM00202 when the PLC address allocated to $SB0 does not change for a spec-
ified period of time (indicating that the NSH5 and Removable Box are not connected).
