CJ-series B7A Interface Unit
CJ1W-B7A
CSM_CJ1W-B7A_DS_E_3_2
It transmits 16 points of I/O signals per
word with a pair of cables.
Easy and minimized wiring effort,
• The B7A Interface Unit and B7A Link Terminal can be used in the
same way as a standard Basic I/O Unit and I/O Terminal without
any need to worry about communications. This characteristic
reduces the wiring when using more than one relatively remote
sensor or actuator.
CJ1W-B7A14
Features
• A CJ1W-B7A unit can transmit 64 points of I/O signals.
• The slim body can downsize machines to which CJ1W-B7A is connected.
• It is a basic I/O unit. No complicated setting and programs are required.

Cables
Note: 1. When separate power supplies are used, the B7A Interface Unit and B7A Link Terminal are supplied by separate external power supplies.
2. When a common power supply is used, the B7A Interface Unit and B7A Link Terminal are supplied by the same external power supply.
*1. We recommend OMRON S8@@-series Power Supply Units for the external power supplies.
*2. The capacity of the external supply current does not include the capacity required by the B7A Link Terminal.
*3. The minimum input time is the minimum time required by the B7A Interface Unit to read the input signals from the CPU Unit.
