Note 1: If selecting “N” for controller, also select “N” for I/O cable length.
Note 2: Use PLC unit which satisfies the ECPT pulse string signal input specifications (refer to
pages 5 to 13 in “SM-612271 Controller Instruction Manual”).
Note 3: If the controller is E or F, these cables can be used only when the differential system is
used as the pulse string signal system.
Only the 2 m cable can be used for the open collector system.
