NX-series Safety Control Unit User’s Manual (Z930)
The Slave Terminal can be installed in any of the following six orientations. (A) is the upright installation
orientation and (B) to (F) are installation orientations other than upright.
However, there are restrictions on the installation orientation and restrictions to the specifications that
can result from the Communications Coupler Units and NX Units that are used.
For detailed restrictions, refer to the user’s manuals for the Communications Coupler Unit, NX Units,
and NX-series System Units that you will use.
For installation orientations (C) and (D) in the above figure, support the cables, e.g., with a duct,
so that the End Plate on the bottom is not subjected to the weight of the cables. The weight of
the cables may cause the bottom End Plate to slide downward so that the Slave Terminal is no
longer secured to the DIN Track, which may result in malfunctions.
