Communication Driver Name: IPC
Implementation DLL: T.ProtocolDriver.IPC.dll
Interface: TCP/IP
PLC types supported: Filmex and Varex extrusion
Manufacturer: IPC
PC Hardware requirements: Ethernet board
Node Configuration
Station Configuration
Station syntax: <IP Address>;<Port>
Where:
- <IP Address> = The IP address of the device
- <Port> = The IP port of the device. Default port is 1505
E.g.: 192.168.1.1; 1505
Point Configuration
Address
The syntax for the communication points is: DB<Number>:<Word>
Where:
- DB = Data Blocks
- <Number> = The group number of the configured Data Block
- <Word> = The address of the word
E.g.: DB10:5
Troubleshoot
The status of the driver's execution can be observed through the diagnostic tools, which are:
• Trace window
• Property Watch
• Module Information
The above tools indicate if the operations have succeeded or have failed. A status of 0 (zero) means communication is successful. Negative values indicate internal driver errors, and positive values indicate protocol error codes.
