The CS-series and CJ-series PLCs use the same architecture and are basi-
cally the same in terms of program structure (tasks), instruction system, I/O
memory, and other functionality. They do differ, however in that the CJ-series
PLCs have a different Unit structure, support different Units, do not support
Inner Boards, have different Expansion Racks, have a different I/O allocation
method, etc. These differences are outlined in the following table.
CJ-series PLCs, CJ1-H CPU Units
90 x 65 mm
Connected to each other via connectors.
End Cover connected to right end to indi-
cate end of Rack.

Structure of allocations is the same.
Special I/O Units: 96 Units max. (restrictions on mounting positions)
CPU Bus Units: 16 Units max.
10 Units max. (11 Units or more will cause

One I/O Control Unit required on CPU
Rack and one I/O Interface Unit required
on each Expansion Rack.
