Notice:
OMRON products are manufactured for use according to proper procedures by a qualified operator
and only for the purposes described in this manual.
The following conventions are used to indicate and classify precautions in this manual. Always heed
the information provided with them. Failure to heed precautions can result in injury to people or dam-
age to property.
!DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury. Additionally, there may be severe property damage.
!WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury. Additionally, there may be severe property damage.
!Caution Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury, or property damage.
OMRON Product References
All OMRON products are capitalized in this manual. The word “Unit” is also capitalized when it refers to
an OMRON product, regardless of whether or not it appears in the proper name of the product.
The abbreviation “Ch,” which appears in some displays and on some OMRON products, often means
“word” and is abbreviated “Wd” in documentation in this sense.
The abbreviation “PLC” means Programmable Controller. “PC” is used, however, in some Program-
ming Device displays to mean Programmable Controller.
Visual Aids
The following headings appear in the left column of the manual to help you locate different types of
information.
Note Indicates information of particular interest for efficient and convenient opera-
tion of the product.

Intended Audience 1
1 Intended Audience
This manual is intended for the following personnel, who must also have
knowledge of electrical systems (an electrical engineer or the equivalent).
• Personnel in charge of installing FA systems
• Personnel in charge of designing FA systems
• Personnel in charge of managing FA systems and facilities
• Personnel qualified, authorized, and responsible for maintaining safety in
equipment design, installation, operation, maintenance, and disposal
2 General Precautions
The user must operate the product according to the performance specifica-
tions described in the operation manuals.
Before using the product under conditions which are not described in the
manual or applying the product to nuclear control systems, railroad systems,
aviation systems, vehicles, combustion systems, medical equipment, amuse-
ment machines, safety equipment, and other systems, machines, and equip-
ment that may have a serious influence on lives and property if used
improperly, consult your OMRON representative.
Make sure that the ratings and performance characteristics of the product are
sufficient for the systems, machines, and equipment, and be sure to provide
the systems, machines, and equipment with double safety mechanisms.
This manual provides information for installing and operating the NE1A Logic
Simulator. Be sure to read this manual before attempting to use the Simulator
and keep this manual close at hand for reference during operation.
3 Safety Precautions
!WARNING The NE1A Logic Simulator simulates the safety logic of an NE1A Controller.
Operation and timing, however, vary somewhat from that of the NE1A Control-
ler. After debugging safety logic on the NE1A Logic Controller, always debug
the safety logic directly on the NE1A Controller to verify operation. Debugging
only on the NE1A Logic Simulator may result in unexpected operation, possi-
bly causing accidents.

The NE1A Logic Simulator Section 1-1
1-1 The NE1A Logic Simulator
The NE1A Logic Simulator provides an offline debugging environment on a
computer by simulating the safety logic operation of an NE1A-series Safety
Network Controller using only software. The NE1A Logic Simulator operates
on Windows 2000 or XP. Logic programs created with the Network Configura-
tor (WS02-CFSC1-E) are loaded as files, and then the virtual safety logic
engine is started.
Note (1) When a logic program that has been created with the Network Configu-
rator is exported from the Network Configurator, a simulation file (*.smr
file) will be created.
The simulation file will be loaded into the NE1A Logic Simulator and sim-
ulation will begin.
(2) Safety logic programs can be simulated only for one NE1A-series Con-
troller at a time. Multiple Controllers connected to the same network can-
not be linked for simulations.

1-2 Features
When using the NE1A Logic Simulator, the following features can be used to
reduce the debug work.
• Input tags can be modified on a screen similar to the logic editor on the
Network Configurator. Corresponding outputs can be verified.
• The Timing Chart Window can be used to run simulations.
• There is a Watch Window, which can be used to monitor registered tags.

System Requirements Section 1-3
1-3 System Requirements
The NE1A Logic Simulator is compatible with the NE1A-series Network
Safety Controllers.
The following system requirements must be satisfied in order to use the NE1A
Logic Simulator.
Note The specified amount of RAM required relates to the capacity of the program
created by the Network Configurator. If the computer does not contain suffi-
cient RAM, it may slow the performance of the NE1A Logic Simulator.
