Additional Information
• Standalone safety control system does not support CIP Safety on EtherNet/IP communica-
tions.
• The EtherNet/IP Coupler Units support connection of NX-SL3300 Units, NX-SI££££ Units
and NX-SO££££ Units. It does not support connection to NX-SL5£££ Units and NX-
SL3500 Units.

l
Integrating Safety Controls in a Sequence and Motion Control System
You can use NX-series Safety Control Units to integrate a safety control system into a sequence
and motion control system.
The safety I/O communications support the FSoE protocol and can be built in as a subsystem on
the NX Bus of CPU Unit or EtherCA
T network. Therefore, no special safety control communications
cables or interface devices are required for safety communications.
l
Easy Creation of an Interface with the Standard Controls
Y
ou can exchange data between the safety controls that are based on the Safety CPU Unit and the
standard controls that are based on the NJ/NX-series CPU Unit.
This allows you to maintain the independent nature of the previously separate safety controls and
standard controls while easily interfacing monitoring and commands between them.

l
CIP Safety on EtherNet/IP Is Supported
You can combine an NX-series NX-SL5£££ Unit with an NX-series
CPU Unit to enable CIP Safe-
ty-based communications between devices that support CIP Safety on EtherNet/IP or other Safety
CPU Units.
