One-Connection Concept of Smart Platform Using CX-One

The enhanced networking capabilities enable NS connection to various networks seamlessly. In addition, it also enables easy data exchange between NS and field controller/devices across various networks.

A connection from the computer is essential to navigate the whole system.

One NS Programmable Terminal is able to connect to multiple PLCs via Serial Network, Ethernet Network or Controller Link Network. With the connection to the network, it enables the user to perform remote maintenance. Uploading and downloading of files and programs can also be done from the control room.

One-Minute Concept of Smart Platform

The NS Series facilitates communication not only for remotely controlled devices but also for other Omron devices without additional programming needed in the Programmable Logic Controller. This can be done using the Smart Active Parts provided by OMRON.

Omron provides continuous enhancement in integrating components together via seamless communication.

Up to 64 EJ1 Temperature Controllers can be connected to the NS Series for parameter setting, monitoring and control using Smart Active Part (SAP).

Free SAP download is available! (exclusive for registered customer who purchased Omron software). Visit our software registration section for more details.
