Introduction
1.1Purpose of this manual
Thank you for purchasing NTXS Series Products from Omron. NTXS Series Products are versatile
operator interfaces with Microsoft Windows based configuration Software. This manual explains the
operation of the NTXS Series and how to implement available features using the NTXS Software. This
manual will help you to install, configure and operate NTXS product.
1.1.1HMI Basics
Operator Interface Terminals (HMIs) provide much more versatility than traditional mechanical control
panels. An HMI allows a plant floor operator to monitor current conditions of a control system and, if
necessary , to initiate a change in the operation of the system. HMIs connect to programmable logic
controllers (PLCs) typically through the serial communications port. The HMI can be programmed to
monitor and/or change current values stored in the data memory of the PLC.
HMIs can have either text-based or graphics-based displays. A text-based HMI can display printable
text characters but can not print graphics.
The NTXS Series HMIs are available in both Text display based HMI and graphics display based HMIs.
What is a Project?
A project is a user created application in NTXS Software. A project contains information such as NTXS
model, Network Configuration, Screen information, Task information etc.
What is a Screen?
A screen is a visual representation of object s placed on the HMI screen. Any partially sized window is
usually referred to as a popup screen or window. User can create his customized screen according to
his requirements. Popup windows can also appear on the HMI display by pressing buttons on the
touch screen. Maximum number of screens in an application is limited by the application memory size.
A more in depth discussion on screen is covered in chapter 4.
What is an Object?
An object placed on HMI screen can perform actions such as displaying text messages, writing value to
PLC register, or displaying an alarm on HMI screen etc. An object can be classified as Text object and
Graphical object.
For example, a Text Object is used to display text on the HMI. But objects are also used to configure
the HMI to perform some action. For example, a Display Data Object tells the HMI to continuously
monitor a PLC register that is used by the PLC. Some objects can display a graphics shape on the
HMI screen and perform some action. A Bit Button Object creates a graphic object on the HMI that
when pressed, activates a bit in the PLC.

1.2NTXS Overview
1.2.1What is NTXS series HMI?
NTXS Series operator interfaces provide Human-Machine Interface to the Programmable Logic
Controller. The HMIs communicate with PLCs using their serial communications ports.
Configuration of NTXS:
Each NTXS unit has to be configured using the NTXS Software before connecting it to the PLC.
NTXS-IBM
Normal Operation:
After configuration is completed, NTXS should be connected with a PLC to start the system.

input circuitry to the programmable logic controller. Severe volt age spikes
caused by these devices may damage the HMI.
2.2Installation Instructions
The NTXS should be mounted on a panel. Gasket, mounting clamps are provided with each NTXS unit
for proper mounting.
Environmental Considerations:
Make sure that the unit is installed correctly and that the operating limits are followed (see S pecifications
for NTXS).
Do not operate NTXS in areas subject to explosion hazards due to flammable gases, vapors or dusts.
NTXS should not be installed where fast temperature variations are present. Highly humid areas are
also to be avoided. High humidity causes condensation of water in the unit.
Location Considerations:
Care should be taken when locating equipment behind the NTXS to ensure that AC power wiring, PLC
output modules, contactors, starters, relays and any other source of electrical interference are located
away from NTXS. Particular care should be taken to the position of V ariable speed drives and switching
power supplies away from the NTXS.

2.3Power Requirements
Supply voltage requirements for NTXS series models is as follows:
NT2S-SF121B-EV2+24VDC + 10%, 1.5W maximum on Power Port
NT2S-SF122B-EV2+5VDC + 10% on PLC port
NT2S-SF123B-EV2+5VDC + 10% on PLC port
NT2S-SF125B-E+24VDC + 10%, 1.5W maximum on Power Port
NT2S-SF126B-E+5VDC + 10% on PLC port
NT2S-SF127B-E+5VDC + 10% on PLC port
NT3S-ST121B-E+24VDC + 10%, 3.5W maximum on Power Port
NT3S-ST123B-E+24VDC + 10%, 3.5W maximum on Power Port
NT3S-ST124B-E+24VDC + 10%, 3.5W maximum on Power Port
NT3S-ST126B-E+24VDC + 10%, 3.5W maximum on Power Port
Please follow the instructions given below while making power supply connections for models:
1. Follow the wiring diagram on the sticker of the unit which shows terminals.
2. To make a connection strip about 7mm of insulation of the wire, turn the connector screw
counter-clock wise until the gap is wide open. Insert the wire all the way in and turn the screw
clockwise until it is tight.
3. Wire lengths should be minimum. Wires should run in pairs with a neutral or common paired
with a live or signal wire.
4. NTXS +24VDC model is fused internally with a self resetting 60V, 400mA fuse. It is recom
mended that all input power lines be protected from product failure by a fuse or breaker.
5. Adequate strain relief must be provided for the power connector, to ensure that vibration does
not cause the power connector to be pulled out.
6. All the NTXS products are housed in a moulded ABS plastic case which eliminates any
electrical shock hazard. Hence Safety Earth is not required to be connected to the chassis of
the unit.
7. The DC ground is not directly coupled to Earth ground internally. The unit is designed to
operate properly whether or not the DC ground is connected to the Earth ground. We do recom
mend, however, that if the DC ground has to be connected to the Earth ground, the Earth
connection should be made to a central star point as poor site earths can introduce noise into a
system.
8. Do not power unit and inductive loads with the same power supply even though there is
enough immunity in the NTXS to withstand the transients present on these lines. A void using
power supplies with large capacitive outputs which may cause problems if power is cycled within
a short time period.
9. If wiring is to be exposed to lightening or surges, use appropriate surge suppression devices.
10. Keep AC, high energy and rapidly switching DC wiring sep arate from signal wires.
1 1. Connecting high voltages or AC power mains to the DC input will make unit unusable and
may create an electrical shock hazard to personnel. Such a failure or shock could result in
serious personal injury , loss of life and/or equipment damage. DC voltage sources should
provide proper isolation from main AC power and similar hazards.

If wiring is to be exposed to lightening or surges, use appropriate surge suppression devices. Keep AC,
high energy and rapidly switching DC wiring separate from signal wires.
Connecting high voltages or AC power mains to the DC input will make unit unusable and may create an
electrical shock hazard to personnel. Such a failure or shock could result in serious personal injury , loss
of life and/or equipment damage. DC voltage sources should provide proper isolation from main AC

2.5Communication Ports
NTXS unit has 2 types of communication ports.
One port of NT2S models has RS232/CMOS signals. This port is used to connect to PLC. The other
port has RS232 signals which is used for receiving configuration setup and printing.
Note: NT2S-SF123B-EV2 and NT2S-SF127B-E units have only a PLC port with CMOS signals.
NT3S has multi-signal ports meaning RS232/RS485/CMOS signal level ports.
Note: NT3S-ST126B-E unit has only RS232 and CMOS signal level ports.
NT3S units can simultaneously communicate with two devices on these serial ports. Unit s can receive
data from PC on either of the ports. Both the ports are also capable of Serial Printing. Each port has to
be configured for their function. Even if both the ports are configured for PLC connection, user can
download data from NTXS software on either of the ports. For Programming cable details, please refer
to Appendix.
Different cables are required for different devices. Cable details for any p articular device are given in the
Operation Manual of that device. Pin description of the communication Ports for NT2S and NT3S
models is as given in following pages.
