A building-block remote I/O slave provided with a group of NX Units connected to a Communications
Coupler Unit is generically called a Slave Terminal.
The NX Units can be flexibly combined with a Communications Coupler Unit to achieve the optimum
remote I/O slave for the application with less wiring, less work, and less space.
The following figure shows an example of the system configuration when an EtherCAT Coupler Unit is
used as a Communications Coupler Unit.
Refer to the user’s manual for the connected Communications Coupler Unit for details on how to con-
figure the system when any other type of Communications Coupler Unit is used.

A computer software application for setting, programming, debugging, and
troubleshooting NJ/NX/NY-series Controllers.
