available for a variety of applications and locations.
• Miniature design with a 50-mm depth.
• Incorporating a connector, thus saving wiring effort.
• Connecting to OMRON's PLCs via dedicated PLC cables (sold
separately).
• Units and minus symbols are displayed (three- and four-digit
model only).
• Incorporating a zero suppression function.
• The power supply can freely change between 12 and 24 VDC.
• CE Marking. UL certification approval.

■ External Connections
Refer to Block Diagram on page 8 and Terminal Arrangement on
page 7 for external connections for the M7F according to the signal
input method.

PLC Connections
• Refer to your PLC operation manual before connecting the PLC.
• The M7F connects to the PLC without using any external resistor.
• It is necessary to select the correct input method of the M7F
according to the output method of the PLC Output Unit. Refer to
Connectable PLCs on page 2 for details on the selection of the
correct input method.
• A PLC Dynamic Output Unit can be used to save wiring. Use a
dynamic input model (M7F-@D@@@).
