12.2 External Wiring for Relay Output
This section explains the relay output specifications (main unit) and external wiring.
• For the main unit, refer to Subsection 12.2.1 "Output specifications (main unit)", Subsection 12.2.3
"Handling of relay output", Subsection 12.2.4 "External wiring precautions" and Subsection 12.2.5
"Example of external wiring" in this section.
• For the input/output powered extension units/blocks, refer to Subsection 12.2.3 "Handling of relay output"
and Subsection 12.2.4 "External wiring precautions" in this section. For their specifications and examples
of wiring, refer to the specification for each model.
→ For the specifications on the input/output powered extension unit, refer to Chapter 15.
→ For the specifications on the input/output extension block, refer to Chapter 16.
