Identity Object Reference

Adding Tags in EBPro (EasyBuilder)

Click **Tag Manager** when adding this driver to initiate tag information. To edit an address tag, see the factory manual.nn. The following is an example of how to add Vendor ID in Tag Editor. See section 3.2.3 Identity Object in the factory manual for details on this ID.

  1. Open Tag Manager

    In System Parameter Settings, select the TOSHIBA TOSVERT VF (EtherNet/IP) device, then click Tag Manager to open the EthernetIp Setting dialog.

  2. Add the Vendor ID tag

    Under Struct-Defined, select Identity to add Vendor_ID. The notation {1,1,1} represents {Class code, Instance ID, Attribute ID}. Enter UINT in the Data Type field according to the factory manual. When finished, this data member can be found in Identity Object.
