Once the “Add Node” cross has been selected, one new tab appears in the command panel.
In the node tree panel, selecting the “COM” section gives access to the serial link
configuration. Then the enhanced COM port that corresponds to the G3-PLC platform to be
driven needs to be selected. Click the Open port button (Figure 4) to enable the
communication between the G3-PLC GUI and the board.
