Connecting MicroLogix 1400 to Weintek HMI: Configuration Tips and Troubleshooting

Question:

Hello everyone! I previously asked a similar question but thought it was best to create a new topic. I'm currently working with a MicroLogix 1400 (ML1400) and a Weintek MT8071iE, and I've connected them through an Ethernet hub (using ML1400 Channel 1). I've reviewed the PLC connection guide in the manual, but I'm uncertain about the appropriate configuration options, which I've included in the image below. Since this is all over Ethernet and involves a MicroLogix (rather than a CompactLogix or ControlLogix), am I overlooking something? Any insights would be greatly appreciated. By the way, everything is pinging smoothly! Thank you in advance for your help.
