KCN-*WR-* replace the dual-preset setting

Question

Question

I would like to replace the KCN-*WR-* used in the dual-preset setting.
Please tell me the successor model and update procedure when updating to the current product.

Answer

Answer

The successor model will be the KCV series.
However, some operation modes cannot be partially replaced.
Since there are differences in specifications, please check the following notes when replacing.

Model number comparison table

KCN-W series KCV series Remarks
KCN-4WR KCV-4S 4-digit AC power contact output
KCN-6WR KCV-6S 6-digit AC power contact output
KCN-4WR-C KCV-4S-C 4-digit DC power supply contact output
KCN-6WR-C KCV-6S-C 6-digit DC power supply contact output

Notes

1. The maximum input speed is different. (KCN-W:5kHz -> KCV:10kHz)
2. The terminal block arrangement and setup menu items / display order are different between KCN-W and KCV.
3. The key protection method is different.
4. KCV does not output when the set value is 0.
5. The depth dimension of the product is different. (AC power supply: + 10mm, DC power supply: + 5mm)
6. Set the KCV with prediction output setting to the KCN Preset value “SET2-SET1 value”.
7. Connect a relay to the output (OUT1) of the KCV.
