Symbol: _cds_icon_nvl.png

A Network Variable List (Sender) is used to declare and list global variables that should be sent to a Network Variable List (Receiver) of another device or network project.

You add the object to the device tree by clicking Add Object → Network Variable List (Sender) of an application.

You can configure the protocol and transfer parameters in the Add Network Variable List (Sender) dialog or Properties dialog of the object on the Network Variables tab.

Dialog: Add Network Variable List (Sender)

Function: This dialog defines the network properties for the sender NVL. When you close the dialog, CODESYS adds the sender NVL of the application to the device tree.

The dialog corresponds to the Network Variables tab in the Properties of the network variable list object.
