b. Calculations
The current consumption from the I/O power supply for each Unit is calculated as follows.
NX-PF0730 Current Consumption
NX-series NX502 CPU Unit Hardware User's Manual (W629)
This is the current that is consumed between the NX Units and the connected exter-
nal devices.
For example, this is the current consumed by a Digital Input Unit to supply power to
photoelectric sensors or to turn ON the input circuits in the Digital Input Unit.
The current consumption depends on the type of I/O circuit in the NX Unit, the num-
ber of I/O points that are used, and the current consumption of the connected exter-
nal device. It must be calculated for each NX Unit.
