Making the EtherNet/IP Connection Settings with the Sysmac
Studio
This section describes the procedure to make the EtherNet/IP connection settings with the Sysmac
Studio.
Here, we take the following system configuration as an example to describe how to set the
EtherNet/IP connection settings.
Example: System that connects the EtherNet/IP port on Controller 1 and the EtherNet/IP port on Con-
troller 2 via Ethernet
• Set the settings so that values in the network variable Net_Out1 allocated for Controller 2 are sent to
the network variable Net_In1 allocated for Controller 1 at the set RPI of 50 ms cycle.
• This example assumes the programs for both Controllers 1 and 2 are registered in the same project.

Follow the flow below to set the settings to Controllers 1 and 2 for which to establish EtherNet/IP con-
nections.
The required settings for the originator device and the target device are shown below.
