Hi everyone,

I’m excited to share that I’ve successfully connected multiple PLCs using a FactoryIO scenario. In this example, I’ve utilized four LOGO PLCs. You can watch the video demonstration by following this YouTube link: [https://youtu.be/kq8RuIdvyi8?si=lGmms89pGUwz5muj](https://youtu.be/kq8RuIdvyi8?si=lGmms89pGUwz5muj)

Thank you for your attention and interest.

Hi @bob.chen,

Can you share additional details on how you did this?

hi @brunovgr  
Firstly, FactoryIO must be the Ultimate version. Secondly, you need to install HomeIO because when you install HomeIO, ConnectIO is automatically installed as well.

Once both of these software are installed, all the objects in FactoryIO will be automatically generated in the Tag table of ConnectIO. This allows you to plan the PLC IP addresses you want to connect to in ConnectIO.

I hope this is helpful to you.
