About the Omron NX-CT2420

The Omron NX-CT2420 is an NX encoder input unit. Omron describes it as: High-speed counter unit ideal for edge control, achieving high-speed response and high-resolution performance(Channnels 2 (In 6(PNP), Out 6(PNP)), Max response frequency 4 MHz, RS-422 Line receiver input). Its specification table gives incremental encoder, Line driver (RS-422), PNP inputs, PNP, PWM outputs and push-in connection. Omron's European product page carries no end-of-production notice for it.

What is the NX-CT2420 used for?

The NX-CT2420 slots onto the NX I/O bus next to an NX controller or bus coupler, carrying its encoder input signals to and from the machine.
