!WARNING It is extremely important that the NSJ Controller be used for the specified pur-

pose and under the specified conditions, especially in applications that can directly or indirectly affect human life. You must consult with your OMRON representative before applying an NSJ Controller to the above-mentioned applications.

3 Safety Precautions

!WARNING Do not attempt to take any Unit apart while the power is being supplied. Doing

so may result in electric shock.

!WARNING Do not touch any of the terminals while the power is being supplied. Doing so

may result in electric shock.

!WARNING Do not use the touch switch input functions of the Display Section for applica-

tions where danger to human life or serious property damage is possible, or for emergency switch applications.

!WARNING Provide safety measures in external circuits (i.e., not in the Programmable

Controller), including the following items, to ensure safety in the system if an abnormality occurs due to malfunction of the NSJ Controller or another external factor affecting the NSJ Controller operation. Not doing so may result in serious accidents.

• Emergency stop circuits, interlock circuits, limit circuits, and similar safety measures must be provided in external control circuits.

Safety Precautions 3

• The NSJ Controller will turn OFF all outputs when its self-diagnosis function detects any error or when a severe failure alarm (FALS) instruction is executed. As a countermeasure for such errors, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.

• The NSJ Controller outputs may remain ON or OFF due to deposition or burning of the output relays or destruction of the output transistors. As a countermeasure for such problems, external safety measures must be provided to ensure safety in the system.

!WARNING Confirm safety before transferring data files stored in the file memory (Mem-

ory Card or EM file memory) to the I/O area (CIO) of the Controller Section using a Programming Device. Otherwise, the devices connected to Output Units may malfunction regardless of the operation mode of the Controller Section.

!WARNING Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer to ensure safety in the

event of incorrect, missing, or abnormal signals caused by broken signal lines, momentary power interruptions, or other causes. Serious accidents may result from abnormal operation if proper measures are not provided.

!WARNING The NSJ Controller refreshes I/O even when the program is stopped (i.e.,

even in PROGRAM mode). Confirm safety thoroughly in advance before changing the status of any part of memory allocated to Output Units, Special I/O Units, or CPU Bus Units. Any changes to the data allocated to any Unit may result in unexpected operation of the loads connected to the Unit. Any of the following operations may result in changes to memory status.

• Transferring I/O memory data to the Controller Section from a Programming Device.

• Changing present values in memory from a Programming Device.

• Force-setting/-resetting bits from a Programming Device.

• Transferring I/O memory files from a Memory Card or EM file memory to the Controller Section.

• Transferring I/O memory from a host computer or from another node on a network.

!Caution Execute online edit only after confirming that no adverse effects will be

caused by extending the cycle time. Otherwise, the input signals may not be readable.

!Caution Confirm safety at the destination node before transferring a program to

another node or changing contents of the I/O memory area. Doing either of these without confirming safety may result in injury.

!Caution When setting Units using the IORD or IOWR instructions, check the operation

of the ladder program and data completely before using them in actual operation. Incorrect settings may cause the Unit to stop operating or may result in unexpected operation of connected devices.

xxi

Safety Precautions 3

!Caution The NSJ Controller automatically backs up the user program and parameter

data to flash memory when these are written to the Controller Section. I/O memory (including the DM, EM, and HR Areas), however, is not written to flash memory. The DM, EM, and HR Areas can be held during power interruptions with a battery. If there is a battery error, the contents of these areas may not be accurate after a power interruption. If the contents of the DM, EM, and HR Areas are used to control external outputs, prevent inappropriate outputs from being made whenever the Battery Error Flag (A40204) is ON. Areas such as the DM, EM, and HR Areas, the contents of which can be held during power interrupts, is backed up by a battery. If a battery error occurs, the contents of the areas that are set to be held may not be accurate even though a memory error will not occur to stop operation. If necessary for the safety of the system, take appropriate measures in the ladder program whenever the Battery Error Flag (A40204) turns ON, such as resetting the data in these areas.

!Caution When installing the NSJ Controller on the door of a control panel or any other

moving object, be sure that all cables are long enough so that excessive force is not applied to cables and connectors.

!Caution Tighten the power supply terminal block screws to the torque specified in this

manual. Loose screws may result in fire or malfunction.

!Caution Wire the polarity of the power supply correctly when using a DC power supply.

Reversing the polarity may cause abnormal operation.

!Caution Do not touch a Power Supply Unit while power is being supplied or immedi-

ately after turning OFF the power supply. The Unit may be hot and may cause burns.

!Caution When connecting a Programming Device or other personal computer to a NSJ

Controller to which a non-insulated Power Supply Unit (e.g., CJ1W-PD022) is mounted, either ground the 0 V side of the external power supply or do not ground the external power supply at all ground. A short-circuit will occur in the external power supply if incorrect grounding methods are used. Never ground the 24 V side, as shown below.

Application Precautions 5

!Caution Failure to abide by the following precautions could lead to faulty operation of

the NSJ Controller or the system, or could damage the NSJ Controller. Always heed these precautions.

• When opening the package, check the external appearance of the NSJ Controller to be sure that it has not been damaged. Also, shake the NSJ Controller gently to check for abnormal sounds.

• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify any Units.

• Do not drop the product or subject it to excessive vibration or shock.

• Install external breakers and take other safety measures against short-circuiting in external wiring.

• Take appropriate measures to ensure that the specified power with the rated voltage and frequency is supplied. Be particularly careful in places where the power supply is unstable.

• Do not apply a force greater than 100 N on the terminal block when tightening the terminals.

• Do not perform withstand voltage tests on the NSJ Controller.

• The allowable thickness of the panel for mounting is between 1.6 and

4.8 mm. Secure the mounting bracket with a uniform tightening torque of between 0.5 and 0.6 N to keep the NSJ Controller waterproof and dustproof. The front sheet may become distorted if the tightening torque is more than the specified limit or not uniform. Always use a panel that is clean, undistorted, and strong enough to adequately withstand mounting the NSJ Controller.

• Do not allow metal particles to enter the NSJ Controller while work is being performed on the panel.

• Do not connect an AC power supply to the power terminals on the NSJ Controller.

• Use a DC power supply with low voltage fluctuation.

• Connect power to the power terminal block using twisted-pair power lines with a cross-sectional area of at least 2 mm

crimp terminals. The correct tightening torque for the terminal block is

0.8 N.

• To conform to the Low Voltage Directive in the EC Directives, use a power supply with reinforced insulation for Expansion Racks.

• Do not pull on the cables or bend the cables beyond their natural limit. Doing either of these may break the cables.

• Do not place objects on top of the cables or other wiring lines. Doing so may break the cables.

• Before touching a Unit, be sure to first touch a grounded metallic object in order to discharge any static build-up. Not doing so may result in malfunction or damage.

• When transporting or storing circuit boards, cover them in antistatic material to protect LSIs, ICs, and other components from static electricity and maintain the proper storage temperature.

• Do not touch circuit boards or the components mounted to them with your bare hands. There are sharp leads and other parts on the boards that may cause injury if handled improperly.

• Mount Units only after checking terminal blocks and connectors completely.

and always using M3.5

xxiv

Application Precautions 5

• Be sure that the terminal blocks, expansion cables, and other items with locking devices are properly locked into place. Improper locking may result in malfunction.

• Be sure that all the terminal screws, and cable connector screws are tightened to the torque specified in the relevant manuals. Incorrect tightening torque may result in malfunction.

• Wire all connections correctly.

• Use crimp terminals for wiring. Do not connect bare stranded wires directly to terminals. Connection of bare stranded wires may result in burning.

• Check switch settings, the contents of the DM Area, and other preparations before starting operation. Starting operation without the proper settings or data may result in an unexpected operation.

• Always use the power supply voltages specified in this operation manuals. An incorrect voltage may result in malfunction or burning.

• Double-check all wiring and switch settings before turning ON the power supply.

• When assembling and wiring connectors, check all pin numbers carefully and wire them correctly.

• Perform all wiring according to the methods given in this and other relative manuals.

• Always use the special cables listed in this manual or make cables according to manual specifications. Using commercially available cables may damage the external devices or the NSJ Controller.

• Confirm the safety of the system before turning ON or OFF the power supply or before pressing the reset button.

• Always reset the power supply after changing switch settings.

• Leave the label attached to an I/O Unit when wiring it. Removing the label may result in malfunction if foreign matter enters the Unit.

• Remove the label after the completion of wiring to ensure proper heat dissipation. Leaving the label attached may result in malfunction.

• Do not apply voltages to the Input Units in excess of the rated input voltage. Excess voltages may result in burning.

• Do not apply voltages or connect loads to the Output Units in excess of the maximum switching capacity. Excess voltage or loads may result in burning.

• The user program and parameter area data is backed up in the internal flash memory. The BKUP indicator will light on the NSJ Controller when the backup operation is in progress. Do not turn OFF the power supply to the NSJ Controller when the BKUP indicator is lit. The data will not be backed up if power is turned OFF.

• Start actual system application only after sufficiently checking screen data, macros, and the operation of the program in the Controller Section.

• When replacing the NSJ Controller, resume operation only after transferring to the new Display Section and Controller Section all data required for resuming operation. Not doing so may result in an unexpected operation.

• When using a program for which errors in the Display Section would affect control operations, monitor for errors in the status area of the Display Section and make sure that operation functions on the safe side if an error occurs.

xxv

Application Precautions 5

• Do not perform the following operations while the uploading or downloading screen data or system programs. The screen data or system program may be corrupted.

• Turning OFF the power supply to the NSJ Controller

• Pressing the reset switch on the Display Section

• Confirm that no adverse effect will occur in the system before attempting any of the following. Not doing so may result in unexpected operation.

• Changing the operating mode of the NSJ Controller (including the setting of the startup operating mode).

• Force-setting/force-resetting any bit in memory.

• Changing the present value of any word or any set value in memory.

• Use the CX-Programmer (programming software that runs on Windows) if you need to program more than one task.

• When creating an AUTOEXEC.IOM file from a Programming Device (CXProgrammer) to automatically transfer data at startup, set the first write address to D20000 and be sure that the size of data written does not exceed the size of the DM Area. When the data file is read from the Memory Card at startup, data will be written to the Controller Section starting at D20000 even if another address was set when the AUTOEXEC.IOM file was created. Also, if the DM Area is exceeded (which is possible when the CX-Programmer is used), the remaining data will be written to the EM Area.

• Always turn ON power to the NSJ Controller before turning ON power to the control system. If the NSJ Controller power supply is turned ON after the control power supply, temporary errors may result in control system signals because the output terminals on DC Output Units and other Units will momentarily turn ON when power is turned ON to the NSJ Controller.

• Fail-safe measures must be taken by the customer external to the NSJ Controller to ensure safety in the event that outputs from Output Units remain ON as a result of internal circuit failures, which can occur in relays, transistors, and other elements.

• If the I/O Hold Bit is turned ON, the outputs from the NSJ Controller will not be turned OFF and will maintain their previous status when the NSJ Controller is switched from RUN or MONITOR mode to PROGRAM mode. Make sure that the external loads will not produce dangerous conditions when this occurs. (When operation stops for a fatal error, including those produced with the FALS(007) instruction, all outputs from Output Unit will be turned OFF and only the internal output status will be maintained.)

• The contents of the DM, EM, and HR Areas in the Controller Section are backed up by a Battery. If the Battery voltage drops, this data may be lost. Provide countermeasures in the program using the Battery Error Flag (A40204) to re-initialize data or take other actions if the Battery voltage drops.

• Do not perform the following operations while a Memory Card is being accessed. In the worst case, the Memory Card may be rendered unusable.

• Turning OFF the power supply to the NSJ Controller

• Pressing the reset switch on the Display Section

• Always following the specified procedure when removing the Memory Card. In the worst case, the Memory Card may be rendered unusable if it is removed while being accessed.

xxvi

Application Precautions 5

• Unexpected operation may result if inappropriate data link tables or parameters are set. Even if appropriate data link tables and parameters have been set, confirm that the controlled system will not be adversely affected before starting or stopping data links.

• CPU Bus Units will be restarted when routing tables are transferred from a Programming Device to the NSJ Controller. Restarting these Units is required to read and enable the new routing tables. Confirm that the system will not be adversely affected before allowing the CPU Bus Units to be reset.

• Do not connect an USB connector to any device that is not applicable.

• Before connecting an USB connector to a device, make sure that the device is free of damage.

• Do not press the touch switch with a force greater than 30 N.

• Confirm the safety of the system before pressing touch switches.

• Do not accidentally press touch switches when the backlight is not lit or when the display does not appear.

• Signals from the touch switches may not be input if the switches are pressed consecutively at high speed. Confirm each input before proceeding to the next one.

• Before initializing screen data, confirm that existing data is backed up at the NS-Designer.

• When changing the password with the system menu, do not reset or turn OFF the power supply until writing is finished (i.e., until the Write Button returns to its original condition). It may become impossible to manipulate screens if the password is not set correctly.

• When using the device monitor, confirm the safety of the system before performing the following operations.

• Changing monitor data

• Changing operation modes

• Forced setting or resetting

• Changing present values or set values

• To ensure safety, always set upper and lower limits when using the numeral input function.

• Do not use benzene, paint thinner, or other volatile solvents, and do not use chemically treated cloths.

• use chemically treated cloths.

• When connecting pin 6 (+5 V power supply line) of serial port A or B (RS232C ports on the Display Section) to any external device, make sure that the current capacity of the connected device is 250 mA max.

• Do not connect pin 6 (+5 V power supply line) of serial port C (RS-232C ports on the Controller Section) to any external device except the CJ1WCIF11 RS-422A Adapter or NT-AL001 RS-232C/RS-422A Adapter. Doing so may damage the external device or NSJ Controller.

• When replacing parts, be sure to confirm that the rating of a new part is correct. Not doing so may result in malfunction or burning.

• When backing up the system, use the correct Memory Card slot, as shown in the following table.

Application Precautions 5

• A DeviceNet multidrop connector cannot be connected to serial port B on

the NSJ5-@@@@-@@@. Do not use it. DeviceNet multidrop connectors cannot be used with the NSJ8/10/12-@@@@-@@@.

• Use only an insulated power source for DeviceNet communications.

• Always tighten the connector screws when connecting communications connectors.

• Observe the following precautions when using the built-in DeviceNet Section.

• Enable the scan list to before operating the system.

• When adding a new node to the network, make sure that the baud rate is the same as other nodes.

• Use specified communications cables.

• Do not extend connection distances beyond the ranges given in the specifications.

• Do not short the battery terminals or charge, disassemble, heat, or incinerate the battery. Do not subject the battery to strong shocks. Doing any of these may result in leakage, rupture, heat generation, or ignition of the battery. Dispose of any battery that has been dropped on the floor or otherwise subjected to excessive shock. Batteries that have been subjected to shock may leak if they are used.

• UL standards required that batteries be replaced only by experienced technicians. Do not allow unqualified persons to replace batteries.

• The backlight used in the NSJ Controller contain mercury. Dispose of the NSJ Controller and any Batteries that are no longer required according to all local laws and ordinances.

• When mounting a Battery, be sure that the correct model is being used.

• The life of the Battery will be shortened if the NSJ Controller is left for a period of time without power supplied and then a Battery is mounted without supplying power.

• To ensure that memory is not corrupted, always turn ON the power supply to the NSJ Controller for at least 5 minutes before replacing the Battery and then complete replacing the Battery within 5 minutes after turning OFF the power supply.

• The following precautions apply to Power Supply Units with Replacement Notification.

• When the LED display on the front of the Power Supply Unit starts to alternately display “0.0” and “A02” or the alarm output automatically turns OFF, replace the Power Supply Unit within 6 months.

• Separate the alarm output cables from power lines and high-voltage lines.

• Do not apply a voltage or connect a load to the alarm output that exceeds the rated voltage or load.

• Maintain an ambient storage temperature of of 25% to 70% when storing the product for longer than 3 months to keep the replacement notification function in optimum working condition.

−20 to 30°C and humidity

xxviii

Conformance to EC Directives 6

• Always use the standard installation method. A nonstandard installation will decrease heat dissipation, delay the replacement notification signal, and may degrade or damage the internal elements.

• Design the system so that the power supply capacity of the Power Supply Unit is not exceeded.

• Do not touch the terminals on the Power Supply Unit immediately after turning OFF the power supply. Electric shock may occur due to the residual voltage.

6 Conformance to EC Directives

6-1 Applicable Directives

•EMC Directives

6-2 Concepts

EMC Directives

OMRON devices 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 (see the following note). 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.

Note Applicable EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) standards are as follows:

EN 61131-2

xxix

Conformance to EC Directives 6

6-3 Conformance to EC Directives

The NSJ Controllers comply with EC Directives. To ensure that the machine or device in which the NSJ Controller is used complies with EC Directives, the NSJ Controller must be installed as follows:

1,2,3... 1. The NSJ Controller must be installed within a control panel.

2. You must use reinforced insulation or double insulation for the DC power supplies used for the NSJ Controller, Expansion Racks, and I/O power supplies. The DC power supply for the NSJ Controller and Expansion Racks must have an output hold time of 10 ms min.

3. NSJ Controllers also conform to EMI Standard (EN61131-2). 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.

4. This is a class A product. In residential areas it may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures to reduce interference.

6-4 Relay Output Noise Reduction Methods

Countermeasures

The NSJ Controllers conforms to the Common Emission Standards (EN61000-6-4) of the EMC Directives. However, noise generated by relay output switching may not satisfy these Standards. In such a case, a noise filter must be connected to the load side or other appropriate countermeasures must be provided external to the NSJ Controller.

Countermeasures taken to satisfy the standards vary depending on the devices on the load side, wiring, configuration of machines, etc. Following are examples of countermeasures for reducing the generated noise.

(Refer to EN61000-6-4 for more details.) Countermeasures are not required if the frequency of load switching for the

whole system with the NSJ Controller included is less than 5 times per minute.

Countermeasures are required if the frequency of load switching for the whole system with the NSJ Controller included is more than 5 times per minute.

cuit is opened and the moment the load is reset.

If the supply voltage is 24 or 48 V, insert the varistor in parallel with the load. If the supply voltage is 100 to 200 V, insert the varistor between the contacts.

The capacitance of the capacitor must be 1 to 0.5 µF per contact current of 1 A and resistance of the resistor must be 0.5 to 1 Ω per contact voltage of 1 V. These values, however, vary with the load and the characteristics of the relay. Decide these values from experiments, and take into consideration that the capacitance suppresses spark discharge when the contacts are separated and the resistance limits the current that flows into the load when the circuit is closed again.

The dielectric strength of the capacitor must be 200 to 300 V. If the circuit is an AC circuit, use a capacitor with no polarity.

The reversed dielectric strength value of the diode must be at least 10 times as large as the circuit voltage value. The forward current of the diode must be the same as or larger than the load current.

The reversed dielectric strength value of the diode may be two to three times larger than the supply voltage if the surge protector is applied to electronic circuits with low circuit voltages.

1-1 Overview

1-1-1 The NSJ Series

NSJ-series NSJ Controllers are Programmable Controllers (PLCs) with user interface display panels called Programmable Terminals (PTs) attached to them. They combine the high-speed, high-capacity, multifunctional capabilities of a PLC with the interfacing capabilities of a PT.

The PLC portion of an NSJ Controller is called the Controller Section and uses the same architecture as a CJ-series CJ1G-CPU45H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0. DeviceNet master functionality is also built-in as a standard feature. Refer to the CJ Series Operation Manual (Cat. No. W393) for a description of the features. Refer to 1-2 Differences between the NSJ Controller and Previous Products for a list of the differences between the Controller Section of a NSJ Controller and a CJ1G-CPU45H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0.

The PT portion of an NSJ Controller is called the Display Section and uses the same architecture as an NS-V2-series PT. Refer to 1-2 Differences between the NSJ Controller and Previous Products for a list of the differences between the Display Section of a NSJ Controller and an NS-V2-series PT.

Display Section Same architecture as an NS-series PT.

Controller Section Same architecture as a CJ-series CPU Unit.

Expansion Unit I/O Control Unit (for connecting Expansion Racks) NSJ Controller Link Unit NSJ Ethernet Unit

Note The Controller Section and Display Section form a one-piece unit and cannot

be separated from each other.

One of the following NSJ Expansion Units can be used with an NSJ Controller: NSJ Controller Link Unit, NSJ Ethernet Unit, or NSJ I/O Control Unit. Using an NSJ I/O Control Unit enables connecting CJ-series Expansion Racks.

Overview Section 1-1

Basic NSJ Control Configuration

An NSJ Controller consists of a Controller Section that is equivalent to a CJseries CJ1G-CPU45H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0 and a Display Section that is equivalent to an NS-V2-series PT. The three NSJ Expansion Unit (NSJ Controller Link Unit, NSJ Ethernet Unit, and NSJ I/O Control Unit) are equivalent to the CJ-series Units listed in the following table. Refer to 1-2 Differences between the NSJ Controller and Previous Products for a list of the differences between the Controller Section and Display Section of an NSJ Controller and the original PLC and PT.

Reduced Space Requirements

The CX-One Unified Development Environment provides all required functions, including those to program, debug, and operate the Controller Section, create and transfer screens to the Display Section, and set up DeviceNet communications. (Use CX-One version 2.0 or higher for the NSJ@-@@@@(B)- M3D and CX-One version 1.1 or higher for all other NSJ Controllers.)

The CX-One (including CX-Programmer, CX-Integrator, and CX-Designer) connects to either the USB port or one of the RS-232C ports (i.e., ports A and B on the Display Section). All operations, such as programming the Controller Section and transferring screens to the Display Section, can be achieved through a single port. (Use CX-One version 2.0 or higher for the NSJ@- @@@@(B)-M3D and CX-One version 1.1 or higher for all other NSJ Controllers.)

Instruction execution times (basic instructions from 0.04 instructions from 0.06 equivalent to those of a CJ1G-CPU45H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0.

The high-quality display capabilities of the Display Section are equivalent to those of an NS-V2 PT.

When using a separate PLC and PT, the PLC and PT must be connected with a cable and communications settings must be made in each. With the NSJ Controllers, all of these connection and setting procedures are not required, saving valuable installation and setup time.

NSJ Controllers can use DeviceNet for I/O to achieve a depth of only 73.3 mm for the NSJ8/NSJ10/NSJ12 and only 79 mm for the NSJ5 (without an Expansion Unit). No additional space is required for the PLC to reduce space requirements for installation.

I/O Control via DeviceNet The NSJ Controllers include master functionality for the DeviceNet open field

network. I/O can thus be controlled using a DeviceNet network within the restrictions of the network communications cycle.

Mount an Expansion Unit One Expansion Unit can be connected to add CJ-series Expansion Racks, a

Controller Link port, or an Ethernet port.

Overview Section 1-1

• Connect CJ-series Expansion Racks to use any required CJ-series Units. An NSJ I/O Control Unit can be mounted to the back of the NSJ Controller to connect up to three CJ-series Expansion Racks with a total of up to 30 CJ-series Units (10 Units per Rack). Any of the CJ-series Basic I/O Units, Special I/O Units, and CPU Bus Units can be mounted to the CJ-series Expansion Racks.

• If an NSJ I/O Control Unit is not mounted, either an NSJ Controller Link Unit can be mounted to add a Controller Link port or an NSJ Ethernet Unit can be mounted to add an Ethernet port. This enables either connecting to a host via Ethernet or connecting to the pier-to-pier Controller Link network. Seamless communications are possible to integrate information with the host or with other production lines.

Ladder Monitoring Function (Display Section System Version 6.6 or Later, Except for NSJ5)

Special NSJ Troubleshooting Features

Using the ladder monitoring function makes it possible to monitor the execution status of programs in the Controller Section or in other PLCs without having to use a Programming Device, such as a CX-Programmer or Programming Console.

Special screens are provided on the Display Section that enable monitoring the Controller Section or DeviceNet master functionality of the NSJ Controller. Error information and countermeasures can be displayed. The alarm monitoring function of the Display Section can also be used to automatically switch to the special screens when an alarm occurs.

Easy Backup of Controller Section Using Display Section Menus

The System Menu of the Display Section can be used to back up Controller Section data onto a Memory Card.

1-1-3 Types of NSJ Controllers

There are two types of NSJ Controllers, as follows:

•NSJ@-@@@@(B)-G5D

•NSJ@-@@@@(B)-M3D

for each functional object. A dialog box asking for the password was displayed each time an attempt was made to use a functional object for which a password had been set, and the object could not be used unless the password was input.

Using a personal computer, a virtual Display Section can be connected to a virtual Controller Section (CX-Simulator) to simulate NSJ Controller operation. This makes it possible to reduce the total time involved in debugging.

Symbol names and comments can be input for symbol tables with no addresses. This allows screens to be created using symbol names without inputting addresses. Entering symbols in screen designs without addresses makes it possible to reduce the total time involved in design.

A password can now be set for creating data. When data with a set password is transferred to the Display Section, the password is then required in order to upload the data. This prevents users who do not know the password from obtaining that data from the Display Section. In addition, a password can be required to transfer data to the Display Section. This prevents data from being accidentally overwritten.

With the new version, once a user inputs the password to use a functional object for which a password has been set, a password does not have to be input again as long as the user continues using only functional objects for which the same or lower level passwords have been set. (Functional objects with a higher-level passwords cannot be manipulated. A warning message will be displayed if an attempt is made.) This makes it possible to create applications that permit only the necessary operations by users who have entered a password, and thus helps prevent faulty operations.

Configuration with No Expansion Unit

A Programming Device (e.g., CX-Programmer or CX-Designer) can be connected to the USB port or serial port A or B, which are on the Display Section. The serial ports on the Display Section have the same functionality as the ports on an NS-series PT. They can also be connected to a barcode reader, temperature controller, or other external device when a Programming Device is not connected.

Serial port C, which is on the Controller Section, has the same functionality as the RS-232C port on a CJ1-H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0. It can be connected using Host Link, NT Link, no-protocol, or Serial Gateway (CompoWay/ F devices) protocols. Device master functionality is provided as a standard feature, so I/O can be controlled using a DeviceNet network within the restrictions of the network communications cycle.

Routing Table Precautions

■ Setting the Network Address for the Built-in Ethernet Port

To set the network address for the built-in Ethernet port on the NSJ Controller, start the routing table setting tool from the CX Integrator and enter the network address for the built-in Ethernet port for port 1 of Unit 225 (Inner Board).

Click the Table V iew Tab, and the network address will be set for unit number

228. When setting the routing tables directly on the Table View Tab Page, set the unit number to 228.

■ Using the NSJ Controller without Routing Tables

The NSJ Controller can be used without setting routing tables in the following cases.

Overview Section 1-1

Stand-alone NSJ Controllers

• Routing tables do not need to be set when the Programming Device is connected to the USB port or Toolbus port (serial port A or B) on an NSJ Controller.

• If the Programming Device is connected to the built-in Ethernet port on the NSJ Controller, set the network address of the built-in Ethernet port from the System Menu of the Display Section. Routing tables do not need to be set.

Networked NSJ Controllers Not Using Communications Applications and and for Which Settings Are Not Performed via the Network

To set up the NSJ Controllers, connect the Programming Device to the USB port or Toolbus port (serial port A or B) on each NSJ Controller.

NSJ Controllers Networked with NSJ Ethernet Units or NSJ Controller Link Units with a Programming Device Connected to the USB Port or Toolbus Port (Serial Port A or B) on an NSJ Controller

Routing tables must be set in NSJ Controllers if more than one Communications Unit (including the built-in DeviceNet master of the NSJ Controller or Communications Units on Expansion Racks connected via an NSJ I/O Control Unit) is used. Routing tables do not need to be set, however, if the unit number of the built-in DeviceNet master is set to a smaller number than the unit number of the NSJ Ethernet Unit or NSJ Controller Link Unit. Controller Link data links can be set by setting the network address to 0 from the Programming Device.

Screen data can be transferred between NSJ Controllers using the CXDesigner across networks only if the NSJ Controllers are connected by the built-in Ethernet ports on the NSJ controller.

1-3 Internal Operation of NSJ Controllers

The internal operation of the NSJ Controller is described in this section.

• The Controller Section and Display Section exchange data using the Inner bus.

• The DeviceNet master function as well as the NSJ Controller Link Unit or NSJ Ethernet Unit (Expansion Units) are handled as CJ-series CPU Bus Units. CIO Area and DM Area words are allocated to these according the unit numbers.

Application Precautions Section 1-4

• CJ-series Expansion Racks can be connected by mounting an NSJ I/O Control Unit. This enables mounting CJ-series Units.

1-4 Application Precautions

• For the Programming Device, use CX-One version 2.0 or higher for the NSJ@-@@@@(B)-M3D and use CX-One version 1.1 or higher for the NSJ Controller. CX-One version 1.0 or lower does not support NSJ Controllers.

• NS-Designer version 6.2 or lower cannot be used to create screen data or to transfer screen data to the Display Section of the NSJ Controller. Use the CX-Designer bundled in CX-One version 1.1 or higher.

• The NSJ Controller does not have a peripheral port. Connect the Programming Device to the USB port or one of the serial ports (port A or B).

• More than one Support Software package (e.g., the CX-Programmer and CX-Designer) can be connected to the NSJ Controller at the same time. Online operations will be interrupted while screen data is being transferred using the CX-Designer, but will be enabled again once the transfer has been completed.

• The Display Section will be reset after screen data has been transferred. If other applications are connected online with the NSJ Controller, communications errors will occur until the Display Section has started up again. With the USB port, the online connection will be automatically restored. With a Toolbus connection (serial port A or B), the connection will not be automatically restored and the connection must be made again manually.

Application Precautions Section 1-4

• Serial port C (on the Controller Section) has the same functionality as the RS-232C port on a CJ1-H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0 except that a Programming Device cannot be connected to serial port C. Connect the Programming Device to the USB port or one of the serial ports (port A or B).

• There is no peripheral port and a Programming Console thus cannot be connected. Use the device monitoring function on the System Menu of the Display Section for simple present value monitoring, present value setting, and similar operations.

• Set the same network address for the built-in Ethernet on the System Menu of the Display Section and in the routing tables of the Controller Section.

• When routing tables are transferred to the NSJ Controller from a Programming Device, the built-in DeviceNet Section, Expansion Unit, and Display Section of the NSJ Controller will be reset to enable using the new routing tables. Always confirm that resetting these parts of the NSJ Controller will not adversely affect the system before transferring the routing tables.

• A communications error will occur when a Programming Device is connected to the NSJ Controller and the Display Section is reset as a result of transferring the routing tables. After the Display Section is restarted, it may be necessary to connect/disconnect the Programming Device's online connection.

• An NS-AL002 RS-232C/RS-422A Conversion Unit cannot be connected to serial port C. If the NS-AL002 is connected to serial port A on the NSJ5-@@@@-@@@, it will not be physically possible to connect serial port C. If the NS-AL002 is connected to serial port A or B on the NSJ8/10/12@@@@-@@@, serial port C cannot be used.

• Memory Cards are formatted before they are shipped. The user does not have to format them before use. To reformat a Memory Card after use, always use the CX-Programmer and format it in the Memory Card slot of the Controller Section (MC (CONTROLLER) slot). The NSJ Controller may not recognize a Memory Card that was formatted on a personal computer. A Memory Card formatted on a personal computer may not be usable with the NSJ Controller even after reformatting the Memory Card in the NSJ Controller.

• Applications started with the external application startup function of the Display Section of the NSJ Controller cannot use the Programming Console function for the Controller Section. These can be used only for PLCs connected to serial port A or B of the NSJ Controller.

• Always use RecoverUpdata_6_5 NSJ_HSH or a higher version (“6_5” is shown as version V6.5) when using the recovery/update function for the Display Section of the NSJ Controller. Data older than version 6.5 cannot be used with the Display Section of the NSJ Controller.

• A DeviceNet multidrop connector cannot be connected to serial port B on the NSJ5-@@@@-@@@. Do not use it. DeviceNet multidrop connectors cannot be used with the NSJ8/10/12-@@@@-@@@.

Application Precautions Section 1-4

• As shown in the following diagrams, corresponding terminals of the NSJ Controller Link Unit are internally connected. If the communications connector is separated from a Unit, the communications line will be broken and communications will be disabled. Use a Repeater Unit if it is necessary to add or delete nodes during operation.

Note 1. The inrush current is given for a cold start at room temperature for AC Pow-

er Supply Units and for a cold start for DC Power Supply Units. The inrush control circuit uses a thermistor element with a low-temperature current control characteristic. If the ambient temperature is high or the NSJ Controller is hot-started, the thermistor will not be sufficiently cool, and the inrush currents given in the table may be exceeded by up to twice the given values. When selecting fuses or breakers for external circuits, allow sufficient margin in shut-off performance. A delay circuit that charges a capacitor is used to limit the inrush current in DC Power Supply Units. If a hot start is performed when the power supply has been OFF only a short period of time, the capacitor will still be charged and the inrush current specified above will be exceeded by up to approximately twice the specified value.

2. Disconnect the Power Supply Unit’s LG terminal from the GR terminal when testing insulation and dielectric strength. Testing the insulation and dielectric strength with the LG terminal and the GR terminals connected will damage internal circuits in the NSJ Controller.

3. Change the applied voltage gradually using the adjuster on the Tester. If the full dielectric strength voltage is applied or turned OFF using the switch on the Tester, the generated impulse voltage may damage the Power Supply Unit.

4. Maintain an ambient storage temperature of humidity of 25% to 70% when storing the Unit for longer than 3 months to keep the replacement notification function in optimum working condition.

5. CJ1W-PD022 is not insulated between the primary DC power and secondary DC power.

Error is detected automatically, and the RUN indicator flashes green for notification.

Note (1) Contact your nearest OMRON representative to replace the backlight.

(2) This is the estimated time before brightness is reduced by half at room

temperature and humidity. It is not a guaranteed value. The life expectancy will be drastically shortened if the NSJ Controller is used at low temperatures. For example, use at temperatures of 0°C will reduce the life

expectancy to approximately 10,000 hours (reference value). (3) The brightness cannot be adjusted much. (4) This function does not detect service life expectancy. It detects when the

backlight is not lit due to a disconnection or other errors. Backlight error

detection indicates that all backlights (2) are OFF.

A Programming Device can be connected to the USB port, serial port A, or serial port B (Display Section). The functionality of serial ports A and B are the same as the ports on an NS-V2-series PT. If a Programming Device is not connected, a barcode reader, temperature controller, or other device can be connected.

Serial port C (Controller Section, RS-232C) has the same functionality as the RS-232C port on a CJ1-H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0. It can be used for a Host Link, NT Link, non-procedural, or serial gateway (CompoWay/F) connection.

The Controller Section provides DeviceNet master functionality as a standard feature. I/O can be controlled and message communications performed using DeviceNet within the limitations of the DeviceNet communications cycle.

Memory Cards are optional for both the Controller Section and Display Section.

The user must provide a 24-V DC power supply.

DeviceNet DeviceNet is a multi-vendor network consisting of multi-bit control and infor-

mation systems and conforms to the Open Field DeviceNet specification. Using the DeviceNet master functionality enables remote I/O communications between the NSJ Controller and the slaves on the network. Remote I/O communications enable large-capacity I/O and user-set allocations. Analog I/O Terminals and other devices are used for the slaves. Message communica-

System Configurations with an Expansion Unit

One of the NSJ Expansion Units can be mounted to enable connecting CJseries Expansion Racks, to add a Controller Link port, or to add an Ethernet port. Refer to SECTION 5 Installation and Wiring for mounting methods.

NSJ I/O Control Unit An NSJ I/O Control Unit (NSJW-IC101) can be mounted to enable connecting

one CJ-series Expansion Rack to the NSJ@-@@@@-M3D or up to three CJseries Expansion Racks to any other NSJ Controller. Up to 10 CJ-series I/O Units (Basic I/O Units, Special I/O Units, or CPU Bus Units) can be mounted to each Expansion Rack. The maximum number of I/O Units that can be connected in one NSJ Controller is thus 10 for the NSJ@-@@@@-M3D and 30 for any other NSJ Controller. Each Expansion Rack must have a Power Supply Unit and I/O Interface Unit (CJ1W-II101).

The maximum cable length for connecting all of the Expansion Racks is 12 m.

NSJ Controller Link Unit An NSJ Controller Link Unit (NSJW-CLK21-V1) can be mounted to enable

using data links between NSJ Controllers and between NSJ Controllers and PLCs, so that data can be shared without programming, and FINS message communications between NSJ Controllers and between NSJ Controllers and PLCs, which enable separate control and data transfer when required. Data links and message communications are also possible between NSJ Controllers and personal computers. Data links enable large-capacity and user-set allocations. FINS message communications also allow large-capacity data transfer.

NSJ Ethernet Unit An NSJ Ethernet Unit (NSJW-ETN21) can be mounted to enable using FINS

message communications between NSJ Controllers, between NSJ Controllers and PLCs, and between NSJ Controllers and host computers. By executing FTP commands for the NSJ Controller from a host computer connected to the Ethernet, the contents of the files on the Memory Card installed in the Controller Section can be read or written (transferred). Data can be sent and received using UDP and TCP protocols by sending/receiving data using SEND and RECV instructions or by using a socket service with CMND instructions. These functions enable a greater compatibility with information networks.
