- 4. Select Broadcast Search.
- 5. Select the network adapters which are used to search for controllers.

![]() | It is optionally possible to create a secure ADS route. Please refer to the Beckhoff Information System for further information how to use Secure ADS. |
This example uses a regular ADS route. The standard password for the user Administrator is the number 1. We strongly recommend changing the default to a more secure password and document it in the revision documents of the project, at the latest when finishing the project.
The controller is now connected through ADS.
