This will create a new entry in the device list for an EtherNet/IP Adapter.
The detail panel will automatically start with the {Save}/{Cancel} buttons.
Pressing {Cancel} will remove the new adapter. Note that the initial “Size”
and “Starting Group #” are 1 and 0 respectively which is not a valid
configuration. Valid data will need to be entered before saving.

7.8.3.2 Configuring the Adapter
After the Adapter appears in the device list, the following information can
be entered:
1. Enter the desired Instance Numbers for the Input, Output and
Configuration sections.
– These are used-defined numbers that are paired between the YRC
Controller and the PLC.
• Only one “Adapter” can be configured on a YRC
Controller. If the Adapter has already been configured,
selecting “Adapter” again will display an error message.
• If an Adapter has been previously configured, the previous
Instance and Size numbers will be auto-populated. Thus,
Adapters can be deleted and then re-added without
needing to manually re-enter the settings.
The Input/Output Instance Numbers should be opposite
between the YRC Controller and PLC. For example, if the
Input Instance is 50 and the Output Instance is 100 on the
YRC Controller, then the Input Instance should be 100 and
the Output instance should be 50 on the PLC. See fig. 7-37
for an example.
