Define device groups and device items

You can create new, modify, or delete device group and device item definitions for an object.

• For DDE/SuiteLink communications, one or more device group definitions must exist for each PLC that the GESRTP Communication Driver communicates with.

• Each device group (topic) definition must contain a unique name for the PLC associated with it.

Each configuration view associated with objects in the GESRTP Communication Driver hierarchy tree has a Save button. When you modify the Parameters, Device Groups dialog box or the Device Items dialog box, click Save to implement the new modifications. If you try to open another configuration dialog box, you are prompted to save the new data to the configuration set.
