Precautions for Correct Use
Make sure that you select the devices with the same device names and the same major CIP
revisions as the devices you use in the actual operation. The following will occur if any device
name or CIP revision is incorrect when you attempt to download tag data link parameters on the
Network Configurator.
•
If a device name is incorrect, an error message will be displayed saying “Specified device
can not be accessed, or wrong device type”, and the download will fail.
• If a revision is incorrect, a message will be displayed saying “Wrong unit revision”, and the
download will fail.
Similarly, the above will occur when performing upload or comparison of the tag data link pa-
rameters.
In any of the above cases, refer to 9-2-17 Changing Devices on page 9-70 and change the
device.
2 Right-click the registered device’s icon to display the pop-up menu, and select Change IP
Address.
3 Set the IP address to match the node address (IP address) actually used in the device, and
click the OK Button.
4 Repeat steps 1 to 3, and register all devices to which tag data links are made.

Creating Tags and Tag Sets
You must create tag sets and member tags that are required to create connections for a registered
EtherNet/IP port and EtherNet/IP Unit. You can set the network variables used in control programs for
tags.
This section first describes the basic procedure to create tags and tag sets, as described in (1) below.
Then it explains how to import variables with a Network Publish attribute from the Sysmac Studio to
the Network Configurator
, as described in (2) below.
