Designation	Model No.	Description
Communication unit for CC-Link IE Field	SC-GU3-04	This is a communication unit, which can convert the output signal of a sensor amplifier into communication data for CC-Link IE Field.
Communication unit for CC-Link	SC-GU3-01	This is a communication unit, which can convert the output signal of a sensor amplifier into communication data for CC-Link.
Communication unit for EtherCAT	SC-GU3-03	This is a communication unit, which can convert the output signal of a sensor amplifier into communication data for EtherCAT.
End unit	SC-GU3-EU	This end unit can change and check the settings of sensor amplifiers that allow optical communication and monitor operation status.
Cascading connector unit	SC-71	This one-touch connector is used to connect the following devices to SC-GU3-0□: The FX-500/410/311/300 fiber sensor, the LS-500/400 laser sensor, the DPS-400 digital pressure sensor, SC-E1, SC-A01 and SC-A02, etc
e-CON 1-channel connector input extension unit	SC-E1	This is a 1-channel connector input extension unit, compatible with an e-CON connector, can be connected to a NPN output type device.(Note 1) Includes power and input signal indicators (for one channel). When using in combination with the SC-GU3 series, use with the SC-71.
e-CON 8-channel connector input extension unit	SC-E81	This extension unit can be connected to eight NPN output type devices. Includes power and input signal indicators (for eight channels).
e-CON 8-channel connector input extension unit (without an input signal indicator)	SC-E82	This is an 8-channel connector input extension unit, compatible with an e-CON connector, can be connected to eight NPN output type devices.(Note 1) (Uses eight channels of signaling, regardless of the number of connected input devices.) Includes a power indicator. Does not include an input signal indicator.
Analog voltage input unit	SC-A01	This extension unit can be connected to NPN output type devices or analog voltage output type devices. When using in combination with the SC-GU3 series, use with the SC-71.
Analog current input unit	SC-A02	This extension unit can be connected to NPN output type devices or analog current output type devices. When using in combination with the SC-GU3 series, use with the SC-71.

Note 1:	Conditions of connectable DC 2-wire type input device • Leak current: 1 mA or less (when the power is OFF), Offset voltage: 3 V or less (when the power is ON) • Product whose load current range includes 5 to 8 mA

SYSTEM COMPOSITION

If optical communication is to be used in a system that includes models not compatible with optical communication, connect the incompatible models after the SC-GU3-EU.
A maximum of 12 units can be connected to the FX-500 / LS-500 series, and a maximum of 16 units can be connected to the other sensor amplifiers.
