 Integrating Safety Controls in a Sequence and Motion Control System
You can use NX-series Safety Control Units to integrate a safety control system into a sequence and
motion control system.
The safety I/O communications support the FSoE protocol and can be built in as a subsystem on the
EtherCAT network. Therefore, no special safety control communications cables or interface devices
are required for safety communications.
 Easy Creation of an Interface with the Standard Controls
You can exchange data between the safety controls that are based on the Safety CPU Unit and the
standard controls that are based on the NJ/NX-series CPU Unit.
This allows you to maintain the independent nature of the previously separate safety controls and
standard controls while easily interfacing monitoring and commands between them.
 Integrating Sequence Control and Safety Control
You can use NX-series Safety Control Units to integrate sequence controls and safety control sys-
tems on an EtherNet/IP system.
 Easy Creation of an Interface with the Standard I/O Data
You can easily exchange data between Safety CPU Units and Standard I/O Units.
You can directly connect OMRON’s wide lineup of Safety I/O Devices to Safety I/O Units without
using any special units.
Setting and debugging operations for safety controls are integrated into the Sysmac Studio Automa-
tion Software.
The shared concepts, such as IEC 61131-3, consistent operating procedures, one-project manage-
ment, integrated debugging, and integrated troubleshooting, reduce the software workload.
 Programming Languages Based on the IEC 61131-3 International Standard
Programming is possible with the FBD language, which is part of the programming language speci-
fications of IEC 61131-3. And the safety function blocks that are defined in PLCopen® TC5 Safety
are also supported.
