Precautions for Correct Use
If you turn ON the power to an EtherNet/IP Slave Terminal before you create or transfer the Unit
configuration information to the EtherNet/IP Slave Terminal, the TS indicator on the front panel
of the EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit will flash green at 0.5-second intervals. This means that the
EtherNet/IP Slave Terminal is operating without any Unit configuration information.
In this state, the EtherNet/IP Slave Terminal will start and operate based on the physical Unit
configuration when the power is turned ON. The Unit configuration is not checked.
• I/O data of Standard NX Units will be mapped to the EtherNet/IP Slave Terminal's I/O data
blocks by their physical order. Refer to 9-6-1 Basic I/O Mapping on page 9-71 for more infor-
mation.
• You cannot use a Safety Control Unit without NX Unit configuration information. To use a
Safety Control Unit, set the NX Unit configuration information in the EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit.
For the Unit configuration information setting procedure, refer to 9-2-2 Setting the NX Unit
Configuration Information on page 9-7.
 Creating Unit Configuration Information Based on the Actual Configuration
This method uses the physical Unit configuration for the Unit configuration information.
Connect the Support Software to the EtherNet/IP Coupler Unit. Compare and merge with the actual
Unit configuration to read the Unit configuration of the Slave Terminal. Set the settings as an Ether-
Net/IP device on the EtherNet/IP Configuration Edit Tab Page. Finally, create the Slave Terminal
configuration and operation settings on the Edit Slave Terminal Configuration Tab Page.
Refer to 9-2-6 Support Software Functions Used as Required on page 9-24 for details on the com-
paring and merging with the actual Unit configuration of the Slave Terminal.
