EIP66-Z is attached to the connector of the board (VFC66-Z) inside the VF66 inverter to use. EIP66-Z is equippedwith the EtherNet/IP adapter function (slave station), analog input/output function, multifunction input and
PG input/output function.
EtherNet/IP is a public network standard, and the specification and protocol are made public by ODVA (Open
DeviceNet Vendor Association, Inc.) to provide mutual compatibility between the devices of the same type by
multiple vendors.
The EIP66-Z EtherNet/IP communication function allows users to input a command related to operation, speed,
torque, etc. to the VF66 inverter or monitor the situations including the inverter operation/protection status,
current and voltage. In addition, reading/rewriting of inverter settings and reading of traceback data, protection
history and monitoring data are available. For the EtherNet/IP communication functions, refer to "EIP66-Z
Communication Protocol Manual." This function can also be used as an input/output signal of the internal PLC
function of the VF66 inverter. For the internal PLC function, refer to the VF66 PC Tool manual.

CAUTION [Safety precautions]
Read this manual thoroughly before use for proper handling.
Our inverter is not designed/manufactured for the devices or systems used in a life-threatening
situation.
Do not use this inverter for special use, such as riding mobile object, medical care, aerospace,nuclear power control, submarine repeater/system, etc.
This inverter is manufactured under stringent quality control; however, install safety equipment
to avoid a serious accident for the important facility which may put human lives in danger by failureof the inverteror the facility to which a serious loss is caused by failure of the inverter.
Contact us to use this product for the load other than three-phase AC motors.
Electrical work is required for this inverter. Let an electrical engineering technician do the work.

EIP66-Z can use the multifunction input of VF66 inverter. The above figures show typical connection
methods for multifunction input signals. The maximum allowable voltage is 24 V, and the maximum allowablecurrent per terminal is 3 mA. For the function of each multifunction input terminal, refer to the operating
instructions of VF66 inverter main unit.
The source or sink mode can be selected for the multifunction input signal, and the use of internal orexternal power supply of inverter can be selected for each mode. The source mode is selected in the default
condition. A switch between the source and sink modes can be made by inserting the jumper socket to theEIP66-Z board jumper connector CN-SO (source mode) or CN-SI (sink mode).
