Control configuration

Enabling the OPC-UA server

Press the key.
Switch to the the Setup interface at the bottom of the screen.
Press the softkey page button at the bottom right of the screen.
Open the window.
Switch to the "All options" tab at the top right.
Press the button to the right of the screen.
Enter "OPC" in the search field.
Press at the bottom right of the screen.
When "Access MyMachine / OPC UA" is highlighted, press the Cancel button at the bottom right of the screen.
Check the "Set" box for the option if it is not already checked and then press the Back button at the bottom right.
If the option was not already enabled, restart the control.

OnTakt configuration

Set the following options in the machine setup area:

System: OPC-UA
Model: SINUMERIK 840D sl
NC URL: opc.tcp://IP:PORT, where IP is the IP address of the control and PORT is the configured OPC-UA server port. The port defaults to 4840 if omitted. No path is necessary after the port number.
NC authentication: username:password, where username and password are the OPC-UA username and password configured in the OPC-UA settings on the control. If this has not been changed, it's probably OpcUaClient:OpcUaClient.

Part counting

Variable part counting

Instead of using the built-in part counters, OnTakt can also read an R-variable and interpret it as a part counter. This way, the part program can increment the part counter by incrementing an R-variable. For example, the statement R5=R5+1 increments R-variable number 5.
