Configuring Properties |
Configuration parameters to communicate with a device are available on this Driver's Properties Window.
In addition to this Properties Window, these settings can also be defined at run time in Elipse E3, in Elipse Power, or in Elipse Water applications. To do so, initialize this Driver in Offline mode, that is, execute an application with the Start driver OFFLINE option enabled, which is configured on the Setup tab of the Properties Window. The configuration options of this Driver are described on the next table.
