Omron NS - HOST Connection Manual page 14

2-1 Outline
This explains how to connect temperature controllers.
Connectable are temperature controllers with a RS-485 port.
Use NS serial port A or B (either one), use converter to transform to RS-485.
1 serial port can accommodate max. 31 temperature controllers.
By using another communications port, you can simultaneously connect temperature
controllers and a host. With one more serial port, NS can connect PLC, barcode reader,
Memory Link and can communicate with NS-Designer.
If NS is equipped with Ethernet port, communications with Omron PLC via Ethernet is
possible.
If equipped with Controller Link I/F, communication with Omron PLC via Controller Link is
possible.
