7.12.3 Connecting I/O Device via CC-Link IE Field
The expansion unit FCU8-EX564 functions as a master station or slave (local) station of CC-Link IE Field. Connect the
CC-Link IE Field-compatible equipment with an ethernet cable (category 5e or above and twisted pair shield cable).
For details, refer to "M800/M80 Series CC-Link IE Field (Master/local) Specifications manual".
[Noise countermeasures of ethernet cable]
When the CC-Link IE Field unit is being used, expose the cable by removing a part of the cable sheath and make
sure to use the shield clamp for the exogenous noise countermeasure.
When you cannot use the shield clamp, make sure to install a ferrite core as a substitute to ethernet cable (near the
expansion unit).
