[00:00] Ignition has a driver that allows you to connect to Omron NJ devices. Like with any device connection, we must configure it in the Ignition gateway, where I am currently. From our configure page, I can head to the device connection section under OPC UA, where I will find all of my current device connections. I will click the create new device option, and I will scroll down to find the Omron NJ driver. This option is only available if the Omron module is installed. The module can be obtained and downloaded from our website's downloads page. With my driver selected, I will press the next button to see my device's configuration. All I need to do now is give my device a connection name and the IP address to my device. Once I press the "Create New Device" button, my device will be created and will be ready to use once it switches to a connected state.
