NX-series Communications Interface Units User’s Manual (W540)
The relationship between the unit versions of each Unit, EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit, CPU Unit and Indus-
trial PC, and versions of the Sysmac Studio and NX-
IO Configurator are shown below.
The items that are used in the version com
bination tables are given below.
The version combination ta
ble is given below.
• With the combinations of the unit versions/ver
sions shown below, you can use the functions that are
supported by the unit version of the Unit model. Use the unit versions/versions (or the later/higher
unit version/versions) that correspond to the NX Unit models and the unit versions. You cannot use
the specifications that were added or changed for the relevant NX Unit models and the unit versions
unless you use the corresponding unit versions/versions.
• Depending on the type and model of the Unit to which the NX
Unit is
connected, some Units do not
have the corresponding versions given in the table. If a Unit does not have the specified version, sup-
port is provided by the oldest available version after the specified version. Refer to the user’s manu-
als for the specific Units for the relation between models and versions.
• If you use the corresponding unit versions/versions given in the following table or later/higher ver-
sions, refer to the version information in the user
’s ma
nual for the Communications Coupler Unit,
CPU Unit, and Industrial PC.
