(Note 1): The A6B series and SL-VGU1-EC series are available since the FP7 MC Unit Ver.1.2. The Communication
Unit for Digital Sensor SC-GU3-03 series will be available in the near future.
(Note 2): More than one A6B or A5B should exist on a network. Also, the mixed connection of A6B and A5B can be
used.
(Note 3): Hubs for EtherCAT and Ethernet cannot be used.
(Note 4): As for Encoder, only the operation of the encoder input terminal GX-EC0211 made by Omron Corporation
has been confirmed.
