Omron PROFINET IO Controller Unit is a CPU Bus Unit, which can be installed on a CJ1 PLC System. The CJ1W-PNT21 controls the data exchange between PROFINET IO Devices and a CJ1 PLC system over a PROFINET IO network. For an overview of the PROFINET IO technology refer to Appendix A PROFINET IO Technology.
