SOPAS Engineering Tool
With the aid of the SOPAS Engineering Tool, the SIG350 can be called up on a computer
running Microsoft Windows. This is particularly helpful if the IP address of the SIG350 is
not known.
Connect the SIG350 to your computer via Ethernet and start SOPAS ET. When starting
the program, the Ethernet interface is always scanned for connected devices and
devices found appear in the Device Search on the right side of the interface. Double
clicking on the result or dragging and dropping the module makes it possible to add the
module as a new project on the left side. Devices that are already in the project are
grayed out in the search results.
