NX1P2-1040DT

Product information

Product Overview

The NX1P2-1040DT is an Omron Sysmac NX1P2 controller: 24 DC inputs and 16 NPN transistor outputs built into the controller itself, 2 synchronous EtherCAT axes, 1.5 MB program memory and dual Ethernet ports, programmed in Sysmac Studio.

This page is written for buyers and maintenance engineers sourcing NX1P2-1040DT as a new part or a replacement. Every specification below is taken from Omron’s own published catalogue data for this model; no third-party or estimated figures are used, and where Omron publishes two different figures for the same parameter, both are shown.

Why Buyers Specify This Model

Controller and I/O in one 148 mm unit

24 inputs and 16 outputs are integrated, so a small machine needs no separate I/O slice. Omron’s data gives a maximum of 8 expansion units and 16 remote I/O nodes on top.

2 ms task cycle, 2 synchronous axes, 4 PTP axes

Motion and sequence control in one controller, with 2 synchronous EtherCAT axes, up to 4 point-to-point axes and 2 serial option board slots.

Two Ethernet ports and EtherCAT

Communication ports are EtherCAT Master, EtherNet/IP and Ethernet TCP/IP, with 2 Ethernet ports — one for the machine network and one for the plant network without an external switch.

Sysmac Studio, not CX-Programmer

This is a Sysmac platform controller. It is the mainstream forward path for CJ2M users facing the 31 March 2027 end-of-production date.

Lifecycle & Availability

Omron’s official product data for this model carries no end-of-production or discontinuation notice — it is listed as a current catalogue item. That is the lifecycle status as published by Omron, not a stock statement on our side.

Availability, condition of supply and lead time are quoted per enquiry because they depend on quantity and on where the goods are held. Tell us the quantity and the date you need it and we will answer with a firm position rather than a promise.

Matching Accessories and Spare Parts

The list below is Omron’s own accessory and spare-part association for this model — the parts Omron itself couples to it for commissioning and for maintenance. Buying them together avoids the usual problem of a spare unit arriving without the bracket, key or battery needed to run it.

Ordering This Part

Send us the full catalogue number NX1P2-1040DT, the quantity, your delivery address and the date you need the goods. If the part is a replacement, attach a photograph of the existing unit’s nameplate — it removes any doubt about the revision, the output type or the supply voltage, which are the three things that most often cause a wrong part to be shipped.

We do not publish stock, condition or lead time as fixed figures here, because they change: they are quoted per enquiry against the quantity and date you actually need. If a machine is down, say so and give us the required window — that is the information that determines how we source it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a PLC or a motion controller?

Both. It is a machine automation controller: sequence control plus 2 synchronous EtherCAT axes, with the same engineering environment and instruction set as the larger NJ series.

How much program memory?

1.5 MB of program memory and 2 MB of variable memory, with a 2 ms primary task cycle. Supply voltage is 20.4 to 28.8 V DC and a real-time clock is built in.

Can I add analog I/O?

Yes — NX1W-ADB21 adds 2 analog inputs 0 to 10 V / 0 to 20 mA as a screwless option board, and NX1W-DAB21V adds analog outputs. The NX I/O slice range extends the system further on the side.

Dimensions?

148 mm wide, 100 mm high, 71 mm deep, approximately 650 g per Omron’s official catalogue data.

Availability?

Current production; no discontinuation notice in Omron’s official data.
