Is the Power Supply Unit that is used on the CPU Rack and Expansion Rack for the NJ Series specifically for the NJ Series? Can I use the Power Supply Unit for the CJ Series instead?
-
On an NJ-series Controller, I used a variable with a TIME data type to register the timer set value for a TON instruction and other timer instructions. I want to change the set value from an NS-series Programmable Terminal, but it does not support variables with a TIME data type. How should I set the timer?
-
Can I connect an NJ-series Controller to an NSJ-series Controller via Ethernet or a serial port?
-
If I want to run an NJ-series Controller without a battery, can I disable detection of the Low Battery Error, like I can in the Programmable Controller system settings for the CS Series and CJ Series?
-
I added a Servo Drive to the EtherCAT node address network configuration in the Sysmac Studio. Then, in the I/O Map, I assigned drive variables to the I/O ports. When I added an axis setting and assigned a target node, the assignments in the I/O Map were grayed out. What should I do to access the Servo Drive?
-
According to the manual, the NJ501-1300 has a program capacity of 20 MB. How many K steps is 20 MB?
-
The performance specifications for the NJ Series lists variable tables as part of the program capacity. Why are variable tables not included in the memory capacity for variables?

-
What is the maximum number of variables that can be monitored with a data trace in the Sysmac Studio?
-
Is there a table of instruction execution times for the NJ Series?
-
