FX2N SIMULATION INPUT SWITCHES
USER’S GUIDE
Introduction
Simulation switches are a convenient method of forcing inputs ON and OFF during program
development.
The table below shows the range of simulation switches, along with their relevant controllers.

Connections
Connect the simulation switches as shown below. Note that these switches use SINK type
input switching. For correct operation the PLC must be configure d to use SINK input s. To
achieve this, connect a link wire between the S/S and 24V terminals as shown.
Single board configuration
Wire link.

NL 24+ X3X1 X7X5 X13X11 X17X15
The example above shows an FX2N-32SW fitted to an FX2N-32M*(E*). All other switch and
MPU types use similar connections.

The example above shows an FX
switch and MPU types use similar connections.
Points to note:
1. The J1 and J2 terminals must be connected prior to operation.
2. The right hand board, marked 1 on the diagram, must be connected before
board 2, on the left.
