IMPORTANT

Before you import the Add-On Instructions to your project, you must do the
following.

1. Add your I/O modules to the project in the I/O configuration tree and configure

them properly.

2. SIL 2 = Yes must be selected when configuring the module.

This creates the data types and tags that you need to use in the Add-On

Instruction.
