6.3.2 Adding Connection Destinations

You can register a Connection Destination by adding its definition to JP1/AO. By registering a device as a Connection Destination in JP1/AO, you can make that device accessible to services executed in the JP1/AO system. The concept of Connection Destinations lets you restrict access to devices based on the service group to which a task belongs. You can add definitions from the user interface, or by using a command.

Who can perform this task:
