Frequently Asked Questions
What controllers is this input unit compatible with?
NX-ID5142-5 works with NJ/NX series machine controllers and NX-ECC EtherCAT couplers. Connects via EtherCAT network. Not compatible with CJ/CP series without EtherCAT master.
Can I use this input with 24VDC sensors?
Yes, 24VDC input range accepts standard proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, and limit switches. Connect sensor + to external 24V+, sensor output to input terminal, input COM to 24V-.
What's the advantage of push-in terminals?
Tool-less wiring: insert stripped wire, pushes in automatically. 50% faster wiring vs screw terminals. Vibration-resistant spring grip. No torque wrench needed. Ideal for high-volume panel building.
Can I use this for high-speed counting?
Standard mode: 0.1ms response (5kHz). High-speed mode: 0.01ms response (50kHz). For higher frequency counting (100kHz+), use NX series high-speed counter unit.
How do I configure this unit?
Configure in Sysmac Studio: add unit to EtherCAT network, set I/O allocation, configure filter settings. Configuration downloads to controller. Unit auto-recognizes on network.
