• NY-series Industrial Panel PC Hardware User’s Manual (Cat. No. W557)

• NJ/NY-series NC Integrated Controller User’s Manual (Cat. No. O030)

• CNC Operator Operation Manual (Cat. No. O032)

Numerical Control

• With CNC version 1.01 or lower, Tool Offset(G43/G44) compensates in Z-axis direction regardless of
the specified plane (G17/G18/G19).

With CNC version 1.02 or higher, Tool Offset (G43/G44) compensates the position in the axis direc­tion that is vertical to the specified plane (G17/G18/G19).

In addition, if you select a plane with this instruction when the value of tool offset is other than 0, tool
offset is canceled (G49).

If you upgrade the CNC version to version 1.02 or higher, confirm on the above change.

Versions

Versions

Hardware revisions and unit versions are used to manage the hardware and software in NJ/NY-series
Units and EtherCAT slaves. The hardware revision or unit version is updated each time there is a
change in hardware or software specifications. Even when two Units or EtherCAT slaves have the
same model number, they will have functional or performance differences if they have different hard­ware revisions or unit versions.

Checking Versions

You can check versions on the ID information indications or with the Sysmac Studio.

Checking Unit Versions on ID Information Indications

The unit version is given on the ID information indication on the side of the product.

Checking Unit Versions with the Sysmac Studio

You can use the Sysmac Studio to check unit versions. The procedure is different for Units and for Eth­erCAT slaves.

 Checking the Unit Version of an NJ-series CPU Unit

You can use the Production Information while the Sysmac Studio is online to check the unit version
of a Unit. You can do this for the CPU Unit, CJ-series Special I/O Units, and CJ-series CPU Bus
Units. You cannot check the unit versions of CJ-series Basic I/O Units with the Sysmac Studio.

Use the following procedure to check the unit version.

1 Double-click CPU/Expansion Racks under Configurations and Setup in the Multiview

Explorer. Or, right-click CPU/Expansion Racks under Configurations and Setup and select
Edit from the menu.

The Unit Editor is displayed.

2 Right-click any open space in the Unit Editor and select Production Information.

The Production Information Dialog Box is displayed.

 Checking the Unit Version of an NY-series Controller

You can use the Production Information while the Sysmac Studio is online to check the unit version
of a Unit. You can only do this for the Controller.

1 Right-click CPU Rack under Configurations and Setup - CPU/Expansion Racks in the Multi-

view Explorer and select Production Information.

The Production Information Dialog Box is displayed.

 Changing Information Displayed in Production Information Dialog Box

1 Click the Show Detail or Show Outline Button at the lower right of the Production Informa-

tion Dialog Box.

The view will change between the production information details and outline.

Outline View Detail View

The information that is displayed is different for the Outline View and Detail View. The Detail View
displays the unit version, hardware version, and software versions. The Outline View displays only
the unit version.

Note The hardware revision is separated by “/” and displayed on the right of the hardware version.
