Connecting to Sensors from the Touch Finder
When the Sensor is used with a Touch Finder, IP addresses are automatically assigned. No settings are
required to use Ethernet.
However, if a Sensor or Touch Finder is connected to a network where a PLC or computer is already
connected, the Ethernet must be set to be compatible with the existing network.
