Precautions
• Do not use extension cables longer than the overall length of 13.2m
(43.31ft.).
• When using an extension cable, keep it away from the main circuit (high
voltage and heavy current) line.
• Set the number of extension stages so that the number is not duplicated with
another.
• The Q6 RB or QA1S6 B cannot be used as an extension base unit.
• Connect the extension cable from OUT of the extension cable connector of
the base unit to IN of the extension base unit on the next stage.
• An error occurs if the number of mounted modules is 65 or more.
• Bus connection of the GOT is not available.
