Sysmac Device Features
Sysmac Device refers to the control device product designed according to standardized communica-
tions and user interface specifications for OMRON control devices. And the features that are available
with such a device are called Sysmac Device Features.
This section describes the features that the inverter provides when it is combined with a Machine Au-
tomation Controller such as NJ/NX series and automation software.
Sysmac Error Status
Because, in Sysmac Devices, errors that may occur in slaves are systematized, you can check the
causes and remedies for errors with a common procedure.
The status of an error can be monitored in the Sysmac Error Status (2002-01 hex). To display the
error detected by the inverter in Sysmac Studio, the Sysmac Error Status (2002-01 hex) must be
mapped to the PDO. Sysmac Studio, by default, uses the 512th transmit PDO Mapping (1BFF hex)
assignment to map the Sysmac Error Status (2002-01 hex) automatically to the PDO.
Additional Information
• For the Sysmac Error Status (2002-01 hex), refer to A-2-7 Manufacturer Specific Objects 1
on page A-24.
• For errors displayed in Sysmac Studio, refer to A-5 Sysmac Error Status Codes on page
A-206.
Saving the Node Address Setting
When the ID switches are set to 00, the value of the node address you set in Sysmac Studio is used.
(Software setting)
When Software setting is enabled, in Sysmac Studio, execute Slave Node Address Writing on the
EtherCAT tab page to save the slave node address setting in the non-volatile memory of the inverter.
Software Setting
The set value saved as Slave Information Interface (SII) information in the non-volatile memory of
the slave is used as the node address.
