System Configuration
You can mount NX-series Position Interface Units after an EtherCAT Coupler Unit, the Communications
Coupler Unit, in an EtherCAT Slave Terminal.
This allows you to connect to a controller that provides an EtherCAT master.
The system configuration and the functions of the Position Interface Units that you can use depend on
the controller that you connect to and the EtherCAT master specifications.
This section describes differences in the system configuration.
Refer to the following sections for details on the differences in functions based on different controller
specifications:
