Introduction
The AC Servo System 1S-Series with Built-in EtherCAT Communications and Safety
Functionality Startup Guide (hereinafter, may be referred to as "this Guide") describes the
procedures for installation and setup of a 1S-series Servo Drive with Built-in EtherCAT
Communications and Safety Functionality (hereinafter referred to as “1S-series Servo Drive
Advance Type”), where an NJ/NX-series CPU Unit is used in combination with1S-series AC
Servomotors/Servo Drives Advance Type and NX-series Safety Control Unit, by using the
Sysmac Studio. A simple installation model is used for the discussion. You can perform the
procedures that are presented in this Guide to quickly gain a basic understanding of a 1S-series
AC Servomotors/Servo Drives Advance Type.
The safety circuits described in this Guide are not safety certified. The described usage
examples of safety components and safety circuits may differ from your usage. This Guide does
not contain safety information and other details that are required for actual use. Thoroughly
