The NSJ Series

2
NSJ-series NSJ Controllers are Programmable Controllers (PLCs) with user
interface display panels called Programmable Terminals (PTs) attached to
them. They combine the high-speed, high-capacity, multifunctional capabili-
ties of a PLC with the interfacing capabilities of a PT.
The PLC portion of an NSJ Controller is called the Controller Section and
uses the same architecture as a CJ-series CJ1G-CPU45H CPU Unit with unit
version 3.0. DeviceNet master functionality is also built-in as a standard fea-
ture. Refer to the CJ Series Operation Manual (Cat. No. W393) for a descrip-
tion of the features. Refer to 1-2 Differences between the NSJ Controller and
Previous Products for a list of the differences between the Controller Section
of a NSJ Controller and a CJ1G-CPU45H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0.
The PT portion of an NSJ Controller is called the Display Section and uses
the same architecture as an NS-V2-series PT. Refer to 1-2 Differences
between the NSJ Controller and Previous Products for a list of the differences
between the Display Section of a NSJ Controller and an NS-V2-series PT.
Display Section
Same architecture as
an NS-series PT.
Note The Controller Section and Display Section form a one-piece unit and cannot
be separated from each other.
One of the following NSJ Expansion Units can be used with an NSJ Control-
ler: NSJ Controller Link Unit, NSJ Ethernet Unit, or NSJ I/O Control Unit.
Using an NSJ I/O Control Unit enables connecting CJ-series Expansion
Racks.
