1-2 NS-series PT Functions

This section describes the features and main functions of the NS-series PTs.
1-2-1 NS-series PT Functions
Slim Body
1. Greater sophistication and reduced body thickness (panel depth 40 mm max.). (See note.)
2. Communications cable connectors housed inside Unit to eliminate protruding connectors.
Note: When mounted to a panel of the recommended thickness (1.6 to 4.8 mm).
Structure Suitable for FA Environments
1. Uses backlight with twice the life of previous OMRON PTs. (Return the PT to your nearest OMRON
service center for replacement (at user expense).
2. IP65F (see note) or NEMA4 equivalent watertight construction.
Note: May not be applicable in environments with long-term exposure to oil.
Two standard-feature Ports for Serial Communications, Ports A and B, Ena-
bling Connection to Both CX-Designer and the Host
1. Communications with the host via the other port are possible while still connected to CX-Designer.
2. Bar code data can be read from a bar code reader via the other port while communicating with the
host.
Ethernet Interface
Ethernet communications with the host are possible for the NS15-TX01@-V2, NS12-TS01(B)-V1/-V2,
NS10-TV01(B)-V1/-V2, NS8-TV@1(B)-V1/-V2, NS5-SQ01(B)-V1, NS5-SQ@1(B)-V2,
NS5-TQ@1(B)-V2, or NS5-MQ@1(B)-V2.
Ethernet/IP communications with the host are also possible with for the NS15-TX01@-V2,
NS12-TS01(B)-V2, NS10-TV01(B)-V2, NS8-TV01(B)-V2, NS5-SQ11(B)-V2, NS5-TQ11(B)-V2, and
NS5-MQ11(B)-V2. The project version, however, must be 8.0 or higher. Tag message communications
can be used when connected to the CJ2H-CPU@@-EIP or the CJ2M-CPU3@ using EtherNet/IP.
Controller Link Interface Unit
Installing a Controller Link Interface Unit enables using a Controller Link Network to send and receive
large data packets flexibly and easily among OMRON PLCs and IBM PC/AT or compatible computers.
Note: The Controller Link Interface Unit is supported by the NS15, NS12, and NS10 only.
Display Video Images with a Video Input Unit
Installing a Video Input Unit enables displaying images from a video camera or Vision Sensor.
