4) Under "Driver", choose "Modbus TCP Master"
5) Click OK. The System Architecture screen should appear with an Equipment Named "SchneiderModbusTCPIPEquipment1"
6) Click on the row with "SchneiderModbusTCPIPEquipment1". The Properties for the Equipment should appear on the right pane.
7) In Properties->Basic Tab, expand all the nodes
8) Under "Equipment Settings" next to IP Address, enter the IP Address of the BMENOC0321 module
8) Set the Equipment Address to be 1 instead of the default 255
9) Under Addressing Mode, tick the "IEC61131 Syntax" checkbox to use %M, %MW notation for the Device Addresses on variables
When completed, the Equipment Configuration dialog should appear as follows (highlighted settings must be changed from default as per above steps):
