Unit Versions of NSJ-series NSJ Controllers
Unit Versions A “unit version” has been introduced to manage NSJ Controllers in the NSJ
Series according to differences in functionality accompanying product
upgrades.
Notation of Unit Versions
on Products
The unit version is given to above the lot number on the nameplate of the
products for which unit versions are being managed, as shown below. The
Controller Section of the NSJ Controllers has the same architecture as a CJ-
series CJ1-H CPU Unit with unit version 3.0. The unit version of NSJ Control-
lers thus starts from unit version 3.0.
Confirming Unit Versions
with Support Software
The CX-Programmer can be used to confirm the unit version using one of the
following methods.
•Using the PLC Information
• Using the Unit Manufacturing Information (This method can be used for
Special I/O Units and CPU Bus Units as well.)
Note CX-Programmer version 6.1 or lower cannot go online with NSJ@-@@@@(B)-
G5D Controllers. CX-Programmer version 7.0 or lower cannot go online with
NSJ@-@@@@(B)-M3D Controllers.
PLC Information
• If you know the device type and CPU type, select them in the Change
PLC Dialog Box, go online, and select PLC - Edit - Information from the
menus.
• If you don't know the device type and CPU type, but are connected
directly to the Unit on a serial line, select PLC - Auto Online to go online,
and then select PLC - Edit - Information from the menus.
In either case, the following PLC Information Dialog Box will be displayed.
