NX-series NX1P2 CPU Unit Hardware User’s Manual (W578)
A-3 Version Information
This section describes the relationship between the unit versions of the NX-series NX1P2 CPU Units
and the Sysmac Studio versions, and the functions that are supported for each unit version.
For NX Units that can be connected to the CPU Unit, refer to A-4 Support Functions of the CPU Units
and Restrictions on the NX Units on page A-9.
This section describes how the unit versions of NX-series NX1P2 CPU Units and Option Boards
correspond to Sysmac Studio versions.
This following table gives the relationship between the unit versions of NX-series NX1P2 CPU Units
and Option Boards and the corresponding Sysmac Studio versions.
The specifications when you do not use the Sysmac Studio version that corresponds to the unit version
of the NX-series NX1P2 CPU Unit and Option Board are given in this section.
Using an Sysmac Studio Version 1.16 or Lower
You cannot use an NX-series NX1P2 CPU Unit with Sysmac Studio version 1.16 or lower.
Using a Lower Version of Sysmac Studio
If you use a lower version of the Sysmac Studio, you can use only the functions of the unit version of
the CPU Unit that corresponds to the Sysmac Studio version.
Example:
Unit version of CPU Unit: 1.14
Sysmac Studio version: 1.17
The unit version of the CPU Unit that corresponds to Sysmac Studio version 1.17 is unit version
1.13. Therefore, you can use only the functions that are supported by a CPU Unit with a unit ver-
sion of 1.13. You cannot use functionality that was added for unit version 1.14 or later of the CPU
Unit.
Using a CPU Unit with an Earlier Unit Version
If you use an NX-series NX1P2 CPU Unit with an earlier unit version, select the unit version or an
even earlier unit version for the CPU Unit on the Select Device Area of the Project Properties Dialog
