# Setting Up the Industrial Communications

The following steps outline the general process of configuring communications between the In-Sight vision sensor and a compatible networked PLC:

1. Install and configure the PLC-specific files and software on the PC.

2. Verify that the PLC protocol is enabled and that the vision sensor appears in the software used to configure the PLC.

3. Verify that outputs are enabled on the vision sensor.

Note: Only one protocol, EtherNet/IP or PROFINET can be active on the vision sensor. See the Communications topic for more information about configuring the protocol in In-Sight SnAPP.
