2-2-3 Comparison between NT600S and NT600M
The NT600S is a unitary PT which incorporates a system ROM, screen memory,
and a host I/F unit (host link, NT link, and RS-232C) as the standard equipment in
one body.
The NT600S has the following features which are different from those of existing
NT600M;
Function NT600S-ST121/-ST211-EV NT600M-DT122
Communication Host link/NT link/NT Link (1:1, 1:N)/RS-232C
incorporated.
The C200H direct communication function can
be used if the separately purchased C200H
interface unit (NT-LB122) is mounted on the
rear of the NT600S.
Host I/F units are required.
Communication connec-
tor
The communication connector (9-pin) for a
PC/Host is shared with that for a support tool.
When using the C200H direct communication
function, there are separate connectors for
communications with the support tool and PC/
Host.
Both the support tool connector (9-pin) and
PC connector (25-pin) are located on the
back side.

1. If a system key function is required on continuous screens or for numerical
setting or buzzer stop, use a support tool and set the touch switches which
have the system key function in such screens.
For details, refer to “System Key Functions” on page 142.
128 KB of screen data memory capacity is equivalent to 200 screens consist-
ing mainly of messages, or 70 screens consisting mainly of figures.
