Versions
Hardware revisions and unit versions are used to manage the hardware and software in NX-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 in the ID information indications on the product 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.
The ID information on an NX-series NX1P2- CPU Unit is shown below.
Note The hardware revision is not displayed for the Unit that the hardware revision is in blank.
Checking Unit Versions with the Sysmac Studio
Checking the Unit Version of a 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, NX Units on the CPU Rack, and Option Boards.
Use the following procedure to check the unit version.
1 Right-click CPU Rack under Configurations and Setup - CPU/Expansion Racks in the Multi-
