select Add Connections to display all of the available
connections.
The Add Safety Connection dialog lets you configure a
connection.
2. Select the desired connection by choosing the Connection
Name.
3. Select a type of connection, either Multicast (input connections
only) or Point-to-point (input or output connections).
