Single Port Multi Access (SPMA)
The PLC program and screen data can be transferred from a single port!
With SPMA you can transfer the PLC program and HMI project data with one cable connection. It does not even matter if you connect first to HMI
or PLC, you can always transfer the data and keep on operating the HMI or PLC.
The HMI can transfer data across different network levels.

SPMA significantly improves maintenance efficiency when the NS-series HMI and PLC are connected over longer distances.

Note: SPMA can be used in CS/CJ-series PLCs with lot number 030201 or later.
Direct Connection to Temperature Controllers and Inverters
Connect OMRON Temperature Controllers and Inverters to the NS-series HMI.
OMRON Temperature Controllers can be connected directly to the NS-series HMI RS-232C port. Data does not pass through the PLC, so ladder
programming is not required. There are many SAPs in the Library for Temperature Controllers. Temperature Controller screens can be created
easily just by pasting objects from the SAP Library onto the screens.
The Omron inverters can also be connected to the NS-series HMI. This makes it easy to read and change parameters for the inverters without any
PLC programming.
