minals.
• CPU Unit
• Additional NX Unit Power Supply Unit
• Shield Connection Unit
Additional Information
A Shield Connection Unit is used to connect the shield when connecting to external input devi-
ces. You can ground more than one shield to the same ground pole to reduce the amount of
wiring work for grounding.
Refer to the hardware user’s manual for the connected CPU Unit for the details on the ground termi-
nals for the CPU Rack.
Units with Functional Ground Terminals in Slave Terminal
