The EtherCAT Coupler Unit and all NX Units mounted to the Slave Terminal are restarted.
Select the EtherCAT Coupler Unit of the EtherCAT Slave Terminal to restart and then execute the
restart.
The methods for restarting are listed below.
• Commands to restart NX Units from the Sysmac Studio.
• Restart NX Unit (RestartNXUnit) instruction
To restart NX Units from the Sysmac Studio, the NJ-series CPU Unit must be in PROGRAM mode.

Precautions for Correct Use
When the Slave Terminal is restarted, all of the Units on the Slave terminal perform the same
operation as when the power supply is cycled. Refer to the manuals for the specific Units for
the operation that is performed when the power supply is turned ON.
