As examples, this section describes EtherNet/IP Slave Terminal setting items and procedure and the
settings that are required to access I/O data in EtherNet/IP Slave Terminals from a CJ-series Ether-
Net/IP Unit. For other settings and setting procedures, refer to the operation manual for the Support
Software that you will use.
• Refer to A-2 TCP/UDP Message Service on page A-34 for details on the TCP/UDP message
service.
• If you do not use a Safety Control Unit, you do not need any Support Software to use the Eth-
erNet/IP Slave Terminal with the default settings. Refer to A-5 Application Procedure for the
Default Settings on page A-52 for information on using an EtherNet/IP Slave Terminal with
the default settings.
The settings that are used to access I/O data in the Slave Terminals from a CJ EtherNet/IP Unit can be
divided into two areas:
• NX-I/O Units data
• EtherNet/IP data
This data is set using Support Software.
This data is set using a configuration tool such as the OMRON Network Configurator.
