Additional Information
• You can place only one Safety CPU Unit on a CPU Rack or in the EtherCAT network. If you
add more than one Safety CPU Unit, the exclamation icon is displayed under all of the
Safety CPU Units, and it will cause an error during the synchronization and download proc-
esses.
• Refer to the
NX-series EtherCAT Coupler Unit User’s Manual (Cat. No. W519-E1-02 or later)
for the number of NX Units that can be mounted to a Slave Terminal.
• Use the Multiview Explorer to move NX Units between Slave Terminals.
