## Connecting to a Moxa Remote I/O Device from N3uron Using SNMP Client

This is a detailed step-by-step guide to connecting to a Moxa remote I/O device from **N3uron** using the **SNMP** **Client** module.

- **Step 1:** Create the module: *(*Config => Modules => Model => New Module*)*.

- **Step 2:** Provide a name for the module (in this case SnmpClient), assign the module type (in this case SnmpClient), and save the new configuration.

- **Step 3:** Configure the **Logger** and **API** sections (usually the default values are sufficient). Save the configuration.

- **Step 4:** Click the button on the left-hand side of the **Model** header, select **New Device**, and give it a name. In this case, Moxa1212.

- **Step 5:** Configure the SNMP Client to connect to the PLC.

Parameters:

- **Enable data collection:** Yes**.**
- **Connection:**
  - **Reconnection delay:** 10000**.**
  - **Request timeout:** 5000**.**
  - **<font face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 18px;">Retry attempts:&nbsp;</span></font>**<font face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 18px;"><span style="color: rgb(247, 148, 29);">3</span>.&nbsp;</span></font>
  - **Version:** SNMPv2c.
  - **Agent:**
    - **Host:** Hostname/IP address of the target device.
    - **Port:** Agent port number to connect to.
  - **Manager:**
    - **Network Interface:** <font color="#000000" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 18px; white-space: pre-wrap;background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline;">C</span></font>lick on the **Network interface** **discovery** button to the right of the **Network interface** field and select the corresponding interface of the network we want to connect to. ![Figure - Interface Browser 2](https://cdn.document360.io/54093ab5-6b22-4542-a265-04377931f11a/Images/Documentation/Figure%20-%20Interface%20Browser%202.png)

    - **Port: Port for incoming notifications.**
  - **Community:**
    - **Polling:** private**.**
    - **Trap:** private**.**
      - **Default File:** RFC1213-MIB, including its dependencies: RFC1155-SMI, RFC-1212, RFC1158-MIB, SNMPv2-SMI, SNMPv2-TC.
      - **Additional Files:** Load the following file provided by the manufacturer moxa-iologik-e1200-series-e212-mib-file-software-package-v1.2.mib.

At this point, the connection is now ready and we can move on to creating new tags.

- **Step 6:** In the **Explorer** panel, select **Tags.** In the **Model** panel, create a new tag, and name it DIO01.

  - **Type:** Number.
  - **Format:** Default.
  - **Client Access:** RW.
  - **Source:**
    - **Enabled:** Yes.
    - **Module type:** SnmpClient.
    - **Module name:** SnmpClient.
    - **Config:**
      - **Device:** Moxa1212.
      - **OID: OID value for requesting information. Users can browse for the corresponding OID by clicking on the button on the right hand side of the **OID** field. Once the browser is open, the different OIDs with their attributes and values can now be found.![Figure 8 - OID browser button](https://cdn.document360.io/54093ab5-6b22-4542-a265-04377931f11a/Images/Documentation/Figure%208%20-%20OID%20browser%20button.png) ![Figure 9 - Selecting Mib](https://cdn.document360.io/54093ab5-6b22-4542-a265-04377931f11a/Images/Documentation/Figure%209%20-%20Selecting%20Mib.png)**
      - **OID Type:** Polling.
      - **Scan rate:** 5000.
- **Step 8:** Finally, head to the ****Data**/****Real-Time section** in the **Navigation** panel, where you should now be able to see all data read from that device.
