System Configuration in the Case of a CPU Unit
The following figure shows a system configuration when a group of NX Units is used with an NX-series
NX102 CPU Unit. Refer to the user’s manual for the connected CPU Unit for information on how to
configure the system when a CPU Unit other than the NX102 CPU Unit is used.
You can connect the EtherCAT Slave Terminal to the built-in EtherCAT port on the CPU Unit.
Refer to 1-2-2 System Configuration of Slave Terminals on page 1 - 6 for details on the system con-
figuration of a Slave Terminal.
