These automatic SCD selection rules do not apply to message tag connections, fan-in
connections (where the hub is an input network variable), or connections in which you specify
a non-SCD for the connection description.

To modify the automatic SCD selection rules, follow these steps:

1. In the OpenLNS CT drawing, click Add-ins, point to OpenLNS CT, and then select OpenLNS

CT Options. The Network Properties dialog box opens.

2. Select Smart Connection Descriptions from the Options Category list.
