Omron NX1 series automation controllers

Thursday, 21 June, 2018 | Supplied by: Omron Electronics Pty Ltd


Omron Electronics has announced the NX1 series of industrial automation controllers. Based on, and compatible with, Omron’s SYSMAC platform, the NX1 series has attained OPC UA certification, meaning OPC UA server functionality is now standard across the series.

The OPC standard was established over 20 years ago and has proved highly effective in providing interoperability for both horizontal (M2M) and vertical (supervisory system) connectivity. It was further enhanced in 2008 when OPC UA (IEC 62541) was released. Unified architecture means any computer platform or operating system can use OPC UA. X.509 authentication and data encryption were embedded, which are fundamental for secure, cyber-based IIoT connections.

The NX1 series utilise the IEC 61131-3 PLC programming standard, PLCopen function blocks and safety programming. It supports up to 12 servo control axes and allows up to 32 NX slice units to be mounted on the CPU. Dual EtherNet/IP and EtherCAT ports are provided on all NX1 CPUs, which also natively supports other protocols such as Modbus/TCP and FINS for existing installations.
