NX-series Digital Output Units
NX-OD/OC
A Wide Range of Digital Output
Units from General Purpose use to
High-Speed Synchronous Control
Transistor and relay Output Units for the NX-series
modular I/O system.
Connect to other NX-series I/O Units and EtherCAT
Coupler units using the high-speed NX-bus.
Synchronous Units update their output status according
to the controller's instructions every EtherCAT cycle.
Features
High-speed I/O refreshing is possible by connecting with the NX-series EtherCAT Coupler.
Output refreshing can be synchronized with the control cycle of the Controller. (Synchronous refreshing)
ON/OFF response time of the high-speed model is 300 ns max, which enables high-speed, high-precision control.
The screwless terminal block is detachable for easy commissioning and maintenance.
Screwless clamp terminal block and Connector types (Units with MIL/Fujitsu Connectors) are significantly reduces wiring work.
Up to 16 digital outputs in a space-saving 12 mm width. (Connector Types 30 mm width)
The lineup includies 2-point, 4-point, 8-point, 16-point, and 32-point types with 3-wire, 2-wire and 1-wire connection methods.
With output refreshing with specified time stamp, the Output Unit refreshes outputs at the time specified by the program. This enables high-
precision output control independent of the control cycle of the Controller.
Connection to the CJ-series is possible by connecting with the EtherNet/IPTM Coupler.

System Configuration
System Configuration in the Case of a CPU Unit
The following figure shows a system configuration when a group of NX Units is connected to an NX-series CPU Unit.
System Configuration of Slave Terminals
The following figure shows an example of the system configuration when an EtherCAT Coupler Unit is used as a Communications Coupler Unit.
*1. The connection method for the Sysmac Studio depends on the model of the CPU Unit or Industrial PC.
*2. An EtherCAT Slave Terminal cannot be connected to any of the OMRON CJ1W-NC@81/@82 Position Control Units even though they can
operate as EtherCAT masters.
Note: For whether NX Units can be connected to the CPU Unit or Communications Coupler Unit to be used, refer to the user's manual for the CPU
Unit or Communications Coupler Unit to be used.

Connecting with CPU Units
Refer to the user's manual for the CPU Unit for the CPU Unit to which NX Units can be connected.
* Some Units do not have all of the versions given in the above table. If a Unit does not have the specified version, support is provided by the
oldest available version after the specified version. Refer to the user's manuals for the specific Units for the relation between models and
versions.
Connecting with Coupler Units
*1. Some Units do not have all of the versions given in the above table. If a Unit does not have the specified version, support is provided by the
oldest available version after the specified version. Refer to the user’s manuals for the specific Units for the relation between models and

Applicable Wires
Using Ferrules
If you use ferrules, attach the twisted wires to them.
Observe the application instructions for your ferrules for the wire stripping length when attaching ferrules.
Always use plated one-pin ferrules. Do not use unplated ferrules or two-pin ferrules.
The applicable ferrules, wires, and crimping tool are given in the following table.
* Some AWG 14 wires exceed 2.0 mm2 and cannot be used in the screwless clamping terminal block.
When you use any ferrules other than those in the above table, crimp them to the twisted wires so that the following processed dimensions are
achieved.
Using Twisted Wires/Solid Wires
If you use the twisted wires or the solid wires, use the following table to determine the correct wire specifications.
*1. Secure wires to the screwless clamping terminal block. Refer to the Securing Wires in the USER'S MANUAL for how to secure wires.
*2 With the NX-TB@@@1 Terminal Block, use twisted wires to connect the ground terminal. Do not use a solid wire.
<Additional Information> If more than 2 A will flow on the wires, use plated wires or use ferrules.
