1. Enter a name for the encoder. In this example, the name is Encoder_1. You

may have multiple encoders or other modules, so be sure to give each a

brief but descriptive name. The name that you assign to the encoder

appears in the controller organizer IO tree. The name will also appear in

the description of tags.

2. Enter a description of the encoder’s function.

3. Set the ethernet address for the encoder. In this example, the address is

192.168.1.123. The 123 reflects the address of the network address
