Your IO-Link Master is now configured. Once you send the program to your PLC, EtherNet/IP
communication can be established by setting the first message’s Enable bit high (Boolean tag “EIP
IO-Link Master.Msg1Enable” in this example) using either ladder code or by editing the tag in data
view (Note: you must be online with the CPU to do this).
