As in the system designer also in the physical view on the left the
sensor is connected to the control. To enable the controller to
communicate with the sensor, the node ID previously set on the
sensor must be set on the controller. Click on the sensor in the
physical view with the right mouse button and select the entry "Node
Number  Change Node Number" (Fig. 51). The node number on
the control must be identical to the node ID of the device. The default
node ID of R-Series V POWERLINK is 1. See the sections 6.1 and 6.2
to change the node ID of R-Series V POWERLINK.
