NX-Series Modular I/O System Connecting to Open Industrial Network Standards » Choice of functionality and performance.
Choice of networks The NX-series Communication Coupler Units support global open networks. Select the network that best suits your needs. Lineup of Communication Coupler Units EtherNet/IP Communication Coupler Unit EtherNet/IP uses the Common Industrial NX-EIC202 Protocol (CIP TM) over a standard Ethernet infrastructure. The EtherNet/IP Coupler has a built-in Ethernet switch and two RJ45 ports, to daisy-chain I/O stations without additional hardware.
NX Series The NX Series is a range of modular designed units that integrate standard I/O and safety and connect to the EtherNet/IP network via Communication Coupler Units. INDE X Features 1. Integrated control Standard I/O and safety units can be mixed within an I/O station. 2. Integrated design environment Machine and safety control can be >P >P IEC 61131-3 function blocks for safety control, as recommended by PLCopen, are supported. 4.
Distributed I/O: the choice is yours. The modern remote I/O demands increasing levels of flexibility. The EtherNet/IP Communication Unit enables connection between the CJ-series or other Programmable Controller and NX-series I/O through EtherNet/IP, which expands system configuration possibilities.

The Safety solution for any application As machine automation evolves the need for diversity in configurations will increase. OEM’s and end-users need the ability to design highly flexibly system that have safety and can integrate with a variety of PLC’s to meet the demands of evolving automation.
Safety Control Units • EN ISO13849-1 (PLe/Safety Category 4), IEC 61508 (SIL3) certified. • 4 or 8 points per Safety Input Unit. 2 or 4 points per Safety Output Unit. • The Safety Units can be freely allocated in any combination with standard NX I/O. Modular design • Small system size allows space savings in the cabinet. ISO 13849-1, PLe • Direct Diagnostic with LED's. IEC 61508, SIL3 • Easy wiring and easy to maintain.
One I/O system for various controllers. While different machines may require different levels of controller performance, NX-series is the only remote I/O system you will need. This will unify wiring and Low-end Machine installation techniques, and simplify spare parts stock. Safety control programs that are created using the NX I/O Edition can be standardized and reused throughout the machine portfolio, which will reduce the time required for development, testing and certification.
