Follow the flow below to set the settings to Controllers 1 and 2 for which to establish EtherNet/IP con-
nections.
The required settings for the originator device and the target device are shown below.
Register the network variable that is sent and received using the EtherNet/IP connections.
Refer to the Sysmac Studio Version 1 Operation Manual (Cat. No. W504) for the operations for register-
ing variables.

Assign the network variable to the tag used for the EtherNet/IP connection for Controller 1 (orig-
inator device).
This network variable receives data from Controller 2 (target device).
Set the Network Publish attribute to Input or Output in the Global Variable Table for the variable
so that the variable serves as a network variable, i.e., the variable can be used for the Ether-
Net/IP connections.
In this example, set the network variable for Controller 1 as shown below.
• Variable name: Net_In1
• Data type: WORD
• Network Publish attribute: Input
