Usable Host Connection Methods

Note

The USB port can be used to transfer screens created by the CX-Designer.
For details, refer to the NS Series Setup Manual (Cat. No. V083-E1).
Open the cover on top of the PT, as shown in the following diagram, and con-
nect a commercially available USB cable to the USB port. (For details on
opening the cover, refer to 3-5 Memory Cards.)
The NSH5 has one serial port corresponding to serial port A in the NS Series,
for connecting to the PLC. Unlike with the NS Series, it is not possible to con-
nect using serial port B, the Ethernet port, or Controller Link. When using CX-
Designer to set the connection method, do not set any communications ports
other than serial port A.
The communications methods shown in the following table can be set, using
the serial port.

(1) Only one NSH5 can be connected to any one communications port on the
PLC. More than one PT cannot be connected at the same time.
(2) Only PT memory can be allocated as the notification destination for the
emergency stop switch and function switches F3 to F5 and F8 to F10.
Host allocations are not possible.
The PT can also communicate with the following products:
• Mitsubishi FX-series, A-series, and Q-series PLCs
• SIEMENS S7-300-series PLCs
• Yaskawa MP-series Machine Controllers
• Yaskawa Varispeed F7-series and VS mini V7-series Inverters
• Rockwell Automation (Allen-Bradley) SLC500, MicroLogix, PLC-5, Com-
