The upgrade tool consists of two parts: Conversion Adapter to modify the existing wiring of AnS/QnAS Series
input/output/analog/high-speed counter/temperature input modules to the wiring of Q Series modules; and Q Series
base adapter mountable through the installation hole of the AnS/QnAS Series base unit.
● FA goods are useful instead if Q Series input/output modules are not available for replacing from AnS/QnAS Series.
■Upgrade tool
The products are used to mount Q Series base unit using the existing AnS/QnAS Series installation screw holes.
■Base Adapter list
FA goods are useful for system configuration with the Q Series module.
These goods consist Conversion Adapter, interface terminal block, positioning module cable, etc.
Module replacement using FA goods instead is executed when the replacement is not available by reasons of the
module's specification, etc.

The products are used to replace with Q Series module using the installation holes of AnS/QnAS Series module.
DIN rail mounting type is also available, the width of I/O slot of this base unit is just the same as existing wide-sized
AnS/QnAS Series, then the space reduces noise interference from nearby modules.

■Q Series large type base unit (AnS Series size)
Q Series large type base unit is used to replace AnS series module with Q series, using
the existing installation site and cables are utilized.
●Reusing a 16 point terminal block from the existing AnS/QnAS Series module reduces the rewiring work.
●When replacing AnS/QnAS Series module with Q Series using Conversion Adapter(Upgrade tool by Mitsubishi
Electric Engineering Co., Ltd.) and the existing AnS/QnAS Series terminal block without rewiring, the width of I/O
slot of this base unit is just the same as existing wide-sized AnS/QnAS Series, then the space reduces noise
interference from nearby modules.
*1
●The installation position is just the same as AnS/QnAS Series’s, the installation screw holes can be used to
mount Q Series large type base unit.
●Panel mounting type or DIN rail mounting type is available, select the type for your need.
*1:
To mount the Q Series module on the I/O slot of the Q series large type base unit, always attach the Q series large type blank cover QG69LS (selling separately).
[Example] Replacing AnS/QnAS Series module with Q Series module using
Conversion adapters and Q Series large type base unit
①Remove the AnS/QnAS Series module along with the base unit, install the Q Series large type base unit in the
same position, and mount the Q Series module. (New installation holes are unnecessary when mounting the
Q Series large type base unit.)
②Attach the Q Series large type blank cover (AnS Series size) to the Q Series module and mount the Q Series
module to the Q Series large type base unit.
③Attach Conversion Adapter(Upgrade tool) to the Q Series module with the Q Series large type base unit.
④Remove the terminal blocks from the existing AnS/QnAS Series module and mount it on the Conversion adapter.
(The existing wiring can be used without modification.
