Happy lunchtime. I hope everything is going great for you today. It is Friday, and I am pretty excited about that. Planning on spending a lot of time building more of these demos, this weekend. I got all the stuff finally came in. So and then I’ll be sharing it with you over the next couple of weeks. Next week, I may have, more recorded content than live content. I’ll still try to release it at lunchtime, but, just some of the things I gotta do requires me to have, you know, to go through and do edits and whatnot. So in any case, though but I should be around almost all of next week, lunchtime, whether it’s recorded or live, I’ll be here. But in any case, I just hope you all are having a great Friday. And today, we’re gonna do part two, and we’re gonna actually set up the two devices, the two IO Link devices. I thought this would be fun. Now if you guys are having any troubles hearing me or seeing me, please put it in the chat. Everything on my side looks like it’s working. So, I’m just gonna go ahead and get started. Now I did play around with, some settings early this morning to see if I could get this to work. There we go. Okay. I I’m not a a huge fan of how they design everything, but, at least this is better than what we’re doing the other day. In any case, we’re back in Studio 5000. And for anybody who didn’t catch yesterday’s show, what we did was we added these two. Let me see if I can switch over to those. We added nope. That’s not what I wanted to do, and that has to do with the selection. You always have to select this. So let’s try it again. There we go. So we added these two devices to our ControlLogix, And we have one IO Link device here and one IO Link device here, but we already have the masters added to logic. So let’s go back here, and, yeah, I’ll click over here. And now we’re inside logic, so you can see them right here down here. Make sure you guys are seeing what I’m seeing. And, now what we need to do is get the data in from the devices. We already have it coming in as, you know, just control the tags, but this is this is not, you know, what you would want. I mean, it’s it’s the twenty first century for crying out loud. Right? We want our data, you know, to be more, massage than that. And, thankfully, the vendor, IFM, has some AOIs, and they’re in that same folder, that same download, the Allen Bradley download. They put all the AOIs in here, which I think is great. At first, I went to the actual pages for the different products, and there were no AOIs there. And I’m like, I think they’re actually in the, the starter package for Allen Bradley. So I went into there. Again, we downloaded this yesterday. I talked about where to get this yesterday. There’s the add on instructions, IFM devices. And the first device I have well, the device plugged into number, the first, IO MetLink master is, this was the RVP. So we’re looking for RXP. Okay. And so what we wanna do is bring in this. We have an eight port, so we need one that goes all the way up to eight ports. And so what I’m gonna do is I’m gonna copy this path here. I’m gonna come over to our assets folder here, add on instructions. I’m gonna, input and add on instruction. I’m gonna give it the path open. We have eight port devices here, so I’m gonna use eight port, and that’ll bring it in. I’m gonna accept all the defaults when it comes in. Bada bing, bada bang, bada bada boom. Excellent. Excellent. And now I know the other one I have is a temperature sensor, TN something. So let’s see here. TN. K. A port, because that’s what I have in the field, eight ports. And bringing that out of instruction as well, except the defaults. And on just a mere moments, they both come in now. You know, you probably know you can go to this add on, you know, toolbar here and bring them in that way. Although, did you know you can bring them in like this too? Right? Which is pretty cool because sometimes it’s easier to see it here because this text is really small. Okay. So in any case, we have them in. Now let’s see if we can zoom in here now. We have to create tags for these. Okay. So I’ll just do a new tag, and I’m just gonna call this these are the AL1322. I’ll call this a. Actually, this is ...
