7.2. Adding a module as an EtherNet/IP Device
Now that the EDS le has been imported and is in the EDS Library, you can add the module as an
EtherNet/IP Device from the EtherNet/IP tab of the Hardware Cong.
NOTE
AutomationDirect.com has created quick start code that can be imported into the task library and used
to connect to the module. Code has also been developed for communicating with a variety of IO-Link
eld devices via the IO-Link Master module. To use the quick start code, go to Section 7.3, “Quick start
IO-Link Productivity Code”. Otherwise, follow steps 1 through 7 below to add the IO-Link Master module
as an EtherNet/IP Device.
1. Double-click or drag the new entry to the device area underneath the hardware tabs.

2. Enter tag names for the required elements in your EtherNet/IP device and its IP address, using
Structure to organize tags, if desired.
