Precautions for Safe Use
• When unpacking the NA Unit, check carefully for any external scratches or other damages. Also,
shake the NA Unit gently and check for any abnormal sound.
• The NA Unit must be installed in a control panel.
• To conform to UL Type 1 standards, the mounting panel thickness must be 1.6 to 6.0 mm.
To conform to UL Type 4X standards, the thickness must be 1.6 to 4.5 mm.
To conform to UL Type 4X standards, always use the NA5-W-V1 with a High-pressure
Waterproof Attachment (PWA). If you do not use a PWA, there is a risk of water entry, which may
cause severe equipment damage. Do not use the NA Unit outdoors. Tighten the Mounting Brackets
evenly to a torque of between 0.5 and 0.6 N·m to maintain water and dust resistance. If the tightening
torque exceeds the specified value, or the tightening is not even, deformation of the front panel may
occur. What is more, make sure the panel is not dirty or warped, that the front surface is smooth, and
that the panel is strong enough to hold the NA Unit.
• Do not let metal particles enter the NA Unit when preparing the panel.
• Turn OFF the power supply before connecting or disconnecting cables.
• Periodically check the installation conditions in applications where the NA Unit is subject to contact
with oil or water.

The DIP switch may break if it is levered with a tool against the case as shown in the figure.
• Once the DIP switch settings are changed, reset by pressing the reset switch, or restart the power
supply.
• Initialize the project, after confirming that existing project is backed up at the Sysmac Studio.
• When changing the password, do not reset or turn OFF the power supply until the writing is completed. A failure to store the password may cause the project to fail to function.
• While uploading or downloading a project or a system program, do not perform the operations as follows. Such operations may corrupt the project or the system program:
• Disconnecting the cable between a support tool and the NA Unit.
• Do not connect an AC power supply to the DC power terminals.
• Do not perform a dielectric strength test.
• Use a DC power with a slight voltage fluctuation and that will provide a stable output even if the input
is momentarily interrupted for 10 ms. Also use the one with reinforced insulation or double insulation.
Rated Power Supply Voltage: 24 VDC (Allowable range 19.2 to 28.8 VDC)
• Use a power cable with AWG#12 to #22 thick (0.35 mm
and tighten the terminal screw with the torque in the range of 0.5 to 0.6 N·m. Also confirm if the terminal screw is tighten appropriately.
• Ground the NA Unit correctly.
• When using the NA5-W-V1, to help prevent electrical shock, ground to 100 Ω or less by
using dedicated ground wires (with cross-section area of 2 mm
screw on the protective ground terminal to a torque of 1.0 to 1.2 N·m.
• Do not use any battery if strong impact is applied to it (e.g. by dropping on the floor) because such a
battery may cause a leakage.
• Confirm the type of the battery to install the battery properly.
• Apply power for at least five minutes before changing the battery. Mount a new battery within five
minutes after turning OFF the power supply. If power is not supplied for at least five minutes, the
clock data may be lost. Check the clock data after changing the battery.
• Do not dismantle a battery nor let it short-circuit.
• Do not apply an impact with the lithium battery, charge it, dispose it into a fire, or heat it. Doing either
of them may cause an ignition or a bursting.
• Dispose of the NA Units and batteries according to local ordinances as they apply.

See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate
The NA-Series contains a lithium primary battery with a perchlorate content of 6 ppb or higher. When
exporting a product containing the NA-Series to or shipping such a product through California, USA,
label all packing and shipping containers appropriately.
• Do not connect the USB devices in the environment subject to the strong vibration.
• Use a USB memory device for temporary purposes such as data transfer.
• Do not connect USB devices which are not allowed to connect to NA Unit.
• Start actual system application only after checking normal operation of the system including storage
devices such as USB memory and SD card.
• When connecting peripheral devices which do not meet the performance level of the NA Unit for
noise and static electricity, ensure sufficient countermeasures against noise and static electricity during installation of the peripheral devices to the NA Unit.
• Do not carry out the following operations when accessing USB devices or SD card:
• Turning OFF the power supply of the NA Unit
• Press the Reset switch of the NA Unit
• Pull out the USB devices or SD card
• When using the No. 6 pin of the serial port connector for a voltage of DC+5 V, make sure the supply
equipment's current capacity is below 250 mA before using it. The DC+5 V voltage output of the NA
Unit is +5 V±5%, and the maximum current is 250 mA.
• To ensure the system's safety, make sure to incorporate a program that call periodically signals during the operation at connected device side and can confirm the normal functionality of the NA Unit
before running the system.
• Start actual system application only after sufficiently checking project, subroutine and the operation of
the program at the connected device side.
• To execute a subroutine with multiple threads, fully check the operation of the program that takes
multithreads into consideration, before starting actual system application.
• To use numeric input functions safely, always make maximum and minimum limit settings.
• Do not press the touch panel with a force greater than 30 N.
• Do not use hard or pointed objects to operate or scrub the screen, otherwise the surface of the
screen may be damaged.
• The deterioration over time may cause the touch points to move on the touch panel. Calibrate the
touch panel periodically.
• A touch position detection error of approximately 20 pixels may occur due to the precision of the
touch panel. Always take this into account when positioning objects on the panel so adjoining objects
will not be activated by mistake.
• Confirm the safety of the system before pressing the touch panel.
• Do not accidentally press the touch panel when the backlight is not lit or when the display does not
appear or is too dark to identify visually.
• You can change the brightness by changing the setting such as in the system menu or by downloading project.
If the brightness is set to very dark, it causes flickering or unreadable screen. Additionally, the brightness can be restored by transferring the project again after setting the property of the brightness
appropriately.
In a case of the applications where end users can control the brightness, create the applications so
as keeping on operations by such as assigning the function which restores the brightness to one of
function keys, if necessary.
• Signals from the touch panel may not be entered if the touch panel is pressed consecutively at high
speed. Make sure to go on the next operation after confirming that the NA Unit has detected the input
of the touch panel.
• The function keys have the restrictions as follows:
• When you use gloves or others, the function keys may not work correctly depending on the material and thickness of the gloves. Take actual conditions of the gloves usage into considerations
prior to the system startup to perform the confirmation.
• The function keys do not work when covered with water. Remove the water completely before
use.
Do not install or store the NA Unit in any of the following locations:
• Locations subject to severe changes in temperature
• Locations subject to temperatures or humidity outside the range specified in the specifications
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of high humidity
• Locations subject to corrosive or flammable gases
• Locations subject to strong shock or vibration
• Locations outdoors subject to direct wind and rain
• Locations subject to strong ultraviolet light
• Locations subject to dust

the following locations:
• Locations subject to static electricity or other forms of noise
• Locations subject to strong electric field or magnetic field
• Locations close to power supply lines
• Locations subject to possible exposure to radioactivity
Mounting Panel
• To conform to UL Type 1 standards, the mounting panel thickness must be 1.6 to 6.0 mm.
• To conform to UL Type 4X standards, the thickness must be 1.6 to 4.5 mm.
To conform to UL Type 4X standards, always use the NA5-W-V1 with a High-pressure
Waterproof Attachment (PWA). If you do not use a PWA, there is a risk of water entry, which may
cause severe equipment damage.
• Tighten the Mounting Brackets evenly to a torque of between 0.5 and 0.6 N·m to maintain water
and dust resistance. If the tightening torque exceeds the specified range or the tightening is not
even, deformation of the front panel may occur. Make sure the panel is not dirty or warped, that
the front surface is smooth, and that the panel is strong enough to hold the NA Unit.
OMRON devices that comply with EC Directives also conform to the related EMC standards so that
they can be more easily built into other devices or the overall machine. The actual products have
been checked for conformity to EMC standards.*
Whether the products conform to the standards in the system used by the customer, however, must
be checked by the customer. EMC-related performance of the OMRON devices that comply with EC
Directives will vary depending on the configuration, wiring, and other conditions of the equipment or
control panel on which the OMRON devices are installed. The customer must, therefore, perform
the final check to confirm that devices and the overall machine conform to EMC standards.
*Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:
EMS (Electromagnetic Susceptibility): EN 61131-2:2007
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference): EN 61131-2:2007
Conformance to EC Directives
The NA-series PTs comply with EC Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which the
NA-series PT is used complies with EC Directives, the NA-series PT must be installed as follows:
• The NA Unit must be installed in a control panel.
• You must use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies connected to
the NA Unit.
• NA-series PTs that comply with EC Directives also conform to the Common Emission Standard
(EN 61000-6-4). Radiated emission characteristics (10-m regulations) may vary depending on the
configuration of the control panel used, other devices connected to the control panel, wiring, and
other conditions.
You must therefore confirm that the overall machine or equipment complies with EC Directives.
• This is a Class A product (for industrial environments). In a residential environment, it may cause
radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take appropriate measures.

1-1NA-series Programmable Terminals
The NA-series Programmable Terminals represent the next generation of HMIs for industrial applications. They display information on FA manufacturing sites and function as control interfaces while providing safety, reliability, and maintainability. They provide all of the functions of traditional programmable
terminals with a clearer, easy-to-use interface.
OMRON offers the new Sysmac Series of control devices designed with unified communications specifications and user interface specifications.
The NA-series Programmable Terminals are Sysmac devices that you can use together with the
NJ/NX/NY-series Machine Automation Controllers and the Sysmac Studio Automation Software to
achieve optimum functionality and ease of operation.
If you connect an NA-series Programmable Terminal to an NJ/NX/NY-series Controller, all you have to
do to specify memory in the Controller is to specify the Controller variables for the objects on the Programmable Terminal screens. This allows you to create screens without being concerned with the
memory map of the Controller.

Specifications with Variables for Superior Reusability
If you connect to an NJ/NX/NY-series Controller, all you have to do to specify memory in the Controller is to specify the Controller variables. This allows you to create objects that are not dependent on
specific devices or memory maps. This in turn makes the objects much more reusable than they
were with previous PTs.
Program with Visual Basic
You can use Microsoft’s Visual Basic to program advanced functions that you cannot achieve with
standard objects.
A Wealth of Security Features
The many security features of the NA-series PTs include operation authority settings and execution
restrictions with IDs.
Use the Integrated Development Environment of Sysmac Studio Automation
Software
You use the Sysmac Studio to create applications for the NA-series Programmable Terminals.
The Sysmac Studio provides an integrated development environment that covers not only the
NA-series Programmable Terminal, but also the Controller and devices on EtherCAT as well.

_HMI_CanEjectSDCard system-defined variable to make sure that the power supply to the SD Memory Card is stopped.
• Before you turn OFF the HMI power supply, execute the EjectSDMemory action and check the
_HMI_CanEjectSDCard system-defined variable to make sure that the power supply to the SD Memory Card is stopped.
• Never insert the SD Memory Card facing the wrong way.
If the SD Memory Card is inserted forcibly, it may become unusable.
• To format the SD Memory Card (e.g., to delete all of the data), use the SD Formatter for
SD/SDHC/SDXC provided by the SD Association.
SD Association: https://www.sdcard.org/
• The SD Memory Card uses flash memory, and so its service life is limited. When the end of the SD
Memory Card’s service life approaches, the ability to write data is lost, and data is sometimes not
retained after writing. The service life depends on the size of the data that is written and on the ambient temperature. For the unlikely event that data is lost, it is recommended to periodically back up
data.

Slide the PWA over the NA Unit from the back until the flat side of the PWA is flat against the
inside of the panel, as shown in the following figure.
3Attach the panel mounting brackets from the back of the panel as shown in the following figure.
The number of mounting brackets depends on the size of the NA Unit, as shown in the following
table. Refer to Bracket Mounting Locations for Different Units on page 3-8.
Catch the brackets in the mounting holes in the NA Unit, pull forward lightly, and then use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws and secure the NA Unit to the panel, which will be held
between the mounting brackets and the NA Unit.
• Do not let metal particles enter the NA Unit when preparing the panel.
• To conform to UL Type 4X standards, the thickness must be 1.6 to 4.5 mm.
To conform to UL Type 4X standards, always use the NA5-W-V1 with a
High-pressure Waterproof Attachment (PWA). If you do not use a PWA, there is a risk of
water entry, which may cause severe equipment damage.
• Tighten the Mounting Brackets evenly to a torque of between 0.5 and 0.6 N·m to maintain
water and dust resistance. If the tightening torque exceeds the specified value, or the tightening is not even, deformation of the front panel may occur. What is more, make sure the panel
is not dirty or warped and that it is strong enough to hold the NA Unit.
• As the rubber packing will deteriorate, shrink, or harden depending on the operating environment, periodical inspection is necessary.
• When using the NA5-W-V1, to help prevent electrical shock, ground to 100 Ω or

Precautions for Correct Use
Clockwise Counterclockwise
Observe the following precautions to prevent broken wires.
• When you remove the sheath, be careful not to damage the conductor.
• Connect the conductor without twisting the wires.
• Do not weld the conductors. If you do so, vibration may cause the wires to break.
• Do not pull on the cables or bend the cables beyond their natural limit.
Do not place heavy objects on top of the cables or other wiring lines. Doing so may break the
cables.
• Before you insert a wire into a terminal hole, turn the screw that tightens the terminal counterclockwise until the terminal is no longer visible. Then, insert the wire so that it is held on the
terminal and screw side of the case and turn the screw clockwise to tighten the terminal.
• Faulty contact will result if you turn the screw counterclockwise to secure the wire. If necessary, remove the wire, make sure it is inserted in the terminal hole, and then connect it again.
3-4-2Wiring the Ethernet Port
Refer to the NA-series Programmable Terminal Device Connection Manual (Cat. No. V120) for informa-
tion on wiring the Ethernet ports.
3-4-3Wiring the Serial Port
The serial port is for future expansion. Do not wire this port.
To ensure system reliability and safety, the system must be designed and configured according to the
installation environment (temperature, humidity, vibration, shock, corrosive gases, overcurrent, noise,
etc.).
3-5-1Temperature
Panels have been reduced in size due to space-saving and miniaturization in devices and systems, and
the temperature inside the panel may be at least 10 to 15°C higher than outside the panel. Implement
the following measures against overheating at the installation site and in the panel, and allow a sufficient margin for the temperature.
High Temperatures
Use the following cooling methods as required, taking into account the ambient temperature and the
amount of heating inside the panel.
Natural Cooling
Natural cooling relies on natural ventilation through slits in the panel, rather than using cooling
devices such as fans or coolers. When using this method, observe the following points.
• Do not install the NA Unit at the top of the panel, where hot air tends to stagnate.
• To provide ventilation space above and below the NA Unit, leave sufficient distance from other
devices, wiring ducts, etc.
• Do not mount the NA Unit in the wrong direction (e.g., vertically or upside down). Doing so may
cause abnormal heating in the NA Unit.
• Do not install the NA Unit above any heat-generating equipment, such as heaters, transformers,
and devices with high resistance.
• Do not install the NA Unit in a location exposed to direct sunlight.
Forced Air Circulation (with Fan in Closed Panel)
Room Cooling (Cooling the Entire Room Where the Control Panel Is Located)
3-5-2Humidity
Rapid temperature changes can cause condensation to occur, resulting in malfunctioning due to
short-circuiting. When there is a possibility of this occurring, take measures against condensation, such
as leaving the NA Unit power ON at night or installing a heater in the control panel to keep it warmer.
The NA Unit is tested for conformity with the sine wave vibration test method (IEC 60068-2-6) and the
shock test method (IEC 60068-2-27) of the Environmental Testing for Electrotechnical Products. It is
designed so that malfunctioning will not occur within the specifications for vibration and shock. If, however, the NA Unit is to be used in a location in which it will be directly subjected to regular vibration or
shock, then implement the following countermeasures:
• Separate the control panel from the source of the vibration or shock.
Or, secure the NA Unit and the panel with rubber padding.
• Make the building or the floor vibration resistant.
• To prevent shock when other devices in the panel such as electromagnetic contactors operate,
secure either the source of the shock or the NA Unit with rubber padding.
3 Installation and Wiring
3-5 Control Panel Installation
3-5-4Atmosphere
Using the NA Unit in any of the following locations can cause defective contact with connectors and corrosion of components. Implement countermeasures such as purging the air as required.
• In locations exposed to dust, dirt, salt, metal powder, soot, or organic solvents, use a panel with an
airtight structure. Be careful of temperature increases inside the panel.
• In locations exposed to corrosive gas, purge the air inside the panel to clear the gas and then pressurize the inside of the panel to prevent gas from entering from outside.
• In locations where flammable gas is present, either use an explosion-protected construction or do not
use the NA Unit.

External Wiring
Wiring, and noise countermeasures in particular, must be based mostly on experience, and it is necessary to closely manage wiring based on information in the manuals.
Wiring Routes
Each of the following combinations includes different signal types, properties, or levels. They will
cause the signal-to-noise ratio to drop due to factors such as electrical induction. As a general rule
when wiring, either use separate cables or separate wiring routes for these items. Future maintenance operations and changes to the system will also be made easier by carefully organizing the
wiring from the start.
• Power lines and signal lines
• Input signals and output signals
• Analog signals and digital signals
• High-level signals and low-level signals
• Communications lines and power lines
• DC signals and AC signals
• High-frequency devices (such as Inverters) and signal lines (communications)

Wiring Methods
Observe the following points when wiring power supply and signal cables.
• When routing signal cables with different characteristics through the same duct, always keep
them separated.
• As much as possible, avoid routing multiple power supply lines through the same duct. If it cannot
be avoided, then construct a partition between them in the duct and ground the partition.
• To avoid overheating the conduits when using conduits for wiring, do not place wires for a single
circuit in separate conduits.

Parallel Wiring (Single Phase)
• Power cables and signal cables adversely affect each other. Do not wire them in parallel.
• Noise induction may occur if the NA Unit is installed in a panel that includes high-voltage devices.
Wire and install them as far apart as possible.
• Either install the NA Unit a minimum of 200 mm away from high-voltage lines or power lines, or
place the high-voltage lines or power lines in metal tubing and completely ground the metal tubing
to 100 Ω or less.
Protective grounding is done to ensure safety. It is intended to prevent electrical shock by holding the
electrical potential at the grounding potential that is generated by factors such as leakage, induction,
or failure.
• Functional Grounding
Functional grounding is done to protect device and system functions, including prevention of noise
from external sources, or prevention of noise from devices or equipment that could have harmful
effects on other devices or equipment.

you press the reset switch while power is supplied.
When the system program starts, one of the following states is entered.
a) If there is an executable project in the NA Unit, the project is automatically executed.
Refer to 4-3-2 Using the System Menu on page 4-9 for the procedure to display the System
Menu.
b) If there is not an executable project in the NA Unit, the System Menu is automatically displayed.
• If there is an error in the system program, the NA Unit will not operate normally.
If you think there is a problem with the system program, system recovery may be necessary.
Refer to 5-2-1 Confirming NA Unit Operation on page 5-5 and 4-2 System Recovery on page 4-3 for
the method to see whether there is an error in the system program and the system recovery procedure.
When you perform system recovery or update the system program, the NA Unit will be returned
to the default status and the project will be deleted.
• You may need to update the system program from time to time, e.g., when support for a new connected device is added to the NA Units. In this case, the system program is automatically downloaded from the Sysmac Studio.
You can implement system recovery if the NA Unit will not start normally or if you want to initialize the
contents of the NA Unit to the default state.
When you implement system recovery, all of the user data is deleted from the NA Unit and the system
program is overwritten with the newest version.
