User program execu-
tion stops.
--- Operation continues.
NX Bus Function
Module
--- I/O refreshing for NX
bus communications
stops.
(NX Unit operation
depends on the NX
Unit settings.)

Motion Control
Function Module
--- All axes stop. (The stop
method depends on the
error.)
• The affected
axis/axes group
stops. (The stop
method depends on
the settings.)
• The motion control
instructions that are
related to axis opera-
tion are not executed.
• Axis operation con-
tinues.

Function Module
--- EtherCAT communica-
tions stop. (The slaves
operate according to
the settings in the
slaves.)
I/O refreshing for Ether-
CAT communications
stops or continues
according to the fail-
soft operation settings
in the master. (If I/O
refreshing stops, the
slaves operate accord-
ing to the settings in the
slaves.)
I/O refreshing for Ether-
CAT communications
continues.
EtherNet/IP
Function Module
--- EtherNet/IP communi-
cations stop. (A soft-
ware connection from
the Sysmac Studio or
an HMI is not possible.)
Part of EtherNet/IP
communications stop.
(A software connection
from the Sysmac Studio
