E3NW-ECT EtherCAT Digital Sensor Communication Unit Operation Manual (E429)
A-2 Using Distributed Sensor Units
This section lists the models of Sensor Amplifiers that you can connect to the E3NW-DS.
The E9NC-TA0 is supported from E3NW-ECT Ver 1.03. The E3NX-CA0 is supported from E3NW-ECT Ver 1.06.
The E3NX-MA0, E2NC-EA□0, E9NC-AA□0/VA□0/VD□0 are supported from E3NW-ECT Ver 1.08 of the
E3NW-ECT.
You can check the version with object index 100A hex. (Refer to "A-1-4 Communication Objects" on page A-4.)
