Thank you for purchasing the Network Interface "COMBOX-NET.EIP." The COMBOX-NET.EIP is an interface for controlling and monitoring controllers provided by NAKANISHI by communication by the industrial network "EtherNet/IP *". Read this and all the Operation Manuals for the controller, CNC, PLC, and PC to be used carefully before use. Always keep this Operation Manual in a place where a user can referred to for reference at any time.
Carry the COMBOX-NET.EIP by holding the main body. Do not carry the COMBOX-NET.EIP by holding its cable. This may damage the cable or cause the COMBOX-NET.EIP to malfunction. Never touch the cable or body of the COMBOX-NET.EIP with wet hands. This may cause an electric shock to the operator or damage to the COMBOX-NET.EIP.
Wire the cables of the COMBOX-NET.EIP to the machine as far away as possible from the main power line. Do not pull the cables connected to the COMBOX-NET.EIP with excess force. Doing so may cause a wire break or faulty contact.
If you have any questions about operation, maintenance and repair of the product, please contact us. 5 FEATURES EtherNet/IP communication can be performed with the CNC, PLC and PC so that motors made by NAKANISHI can be operated. LEDs on the main body allow motor and controller status to be checked.
