7-2-6 Creating Connections Using the Wizard
You can use the Network Configurator's Wizard to easily create connections between OMRON PLCs
following the instructions provided by the Wizard.
Note The Wizard can be used only with the following OMRON EtherNet/IP devices.
Use the following procedure to create connections (i.e., data links) with the Wizard.
1
Set tags and tag sets for all devices before starting the Wizard. Refer to 7-2-4 Creating Tags
and Tag Sets for the setting procedure.

tor device) that receives data as input data.
First, select the registered device for which you want to create a connection in the Network Con-
figuration Window of the Network Configurator, and then select Device - Parameters - Wizard
