Project Data Handling in Different System Configurations

The contents of the Sysmac Studio project data and the data being synchronized varies depending on
the connection method (i.e., Ethernet direct connection or connection through an NJ/NX-series Control-
ler) between the FH sensor controller and the computer that runs Sysmac Studio. Particularly with the
connection through an NJ/NX-series Controller, there are restrictions on some Sysmac Studio func-
tions. Be sure you understand the following before operation.
Refer to 2-8 Precautions on Synchronization through an NJ/NX-series Controller on page 2-39.

There are two types of data: the data that the
NJ/NX-series Controller manages and the
data that the FH sensor controller manages.

The data that the NJ/NX-series Controller
manages within the project data that Sysmac
Studio manages is synchronized.
Because the data that the FH sensor
controller manages (i.e., the settings data for
the FH sensor controller) is not synchronized,
the settings for the FH sensor controller need
to be synchronized separately.
Refer to 2-8 Precautions on Synchronization
through an NJ/NX-series Controller on page
2-39
Checking the data output from the FH sensor
controller sent through EtherCAT is possible.
Making setting changes, and creating and
adjusting the measurement flows for the FH
are not possible.
Checking the data output from the FH sensor
controller and sent through EtherCAT is
possible.
Making setting changes, and creating and
adjusting the measurement flows for the FH
besides checking the output data from the
FH sensor controller are all possible.
(2) Ethernet direct connection (when exe-
cuting an FH project)

The data that the FH sensor controller
manages (i.e., the settings data for the FH
sensor controller) within the project data that
Sysmac Studio manages is synchronized.
Refer to 3-3 Synchronizing Project Data and
Sensor Setting Data on page 3-8
Making setting changes on the FH sensor
controller, creating and adjusting the
measurement flows for the FH in addition to
checking the output data from the FH sensor
controller are all possible.
Making setting changes, creating and
adjusting the measurement flows for the FH
besides checking the output data from the
FH sensor controller are possible.
