Omron DR 170 14 manual Configuring the DAServer, NewSOCKET000 by default, Add Controller Object

Klinkmann Automation Omron Ethernet DAServer 17

4.From the System Management Console, find the Omron Ethernet DAServer in the DAServer Manager tree, the location in which it is installed.

• Under the Local branch node, the name of the DAServer is Archestra.DASOmronEth.1.

• See the DAServer Manager documentation for general information about working in this snap-in environment.

5.The new Omron Ethernet DAServer must now be configured.

•Before proceeding, determine the hierarchical structure of the network/PLC environment to which you plan to connect.

6. Right-click the Configuration object that already exists in the tree, and select Add SOCKET Object from the shortcut menu.

•A new SOCKET object is created as a node in the hierarchy tree and is named

New_SOCKET_000 by default.

•In this step, in addition to Step 7, the hierarchy entry is added in "edit mode," providing a convenient place for you to appropriately describe components of your specific hardware environment.

•If you do not rename the object at this time, a numeric sequencing system is applied.

•Any hierarchy entry can be renamed at a later time.

7.Right-click on the new SOCKET object, and from the shortcut menu, select

Add CONTROLLER Object

8.Configure the respective device objects, created in the preceding steps, with the appropriate parameter values, if applicable.

• Optionally, the desired device groups can be created under the Device Groups tabbed page with each of the Controller objects.

• Desired device items can also be optionally created under the Device Items tabbed page with each of the Controller objects.

Note: The hierarchy entry is added in the "edit mode," providing a convenient place for you to appropriately describe components of your specific hardware environment. Both hierarchy node name and device group name are numerically sequenced by default.

They can be renamed at any time.

The DAServer is now ready for use. In order to use the DAServer, you must activate it from the DAServer Manager using either the shortcut menu’s Activate Server command from the Archestra.DASOmronEth.1 node, or from OPC Client.

Note: To run the Omron Ethernet DAServer as a service, right-click on the DAServer name and select Configure As Service from the shortcut menu. You can configure it as an auto service or manual service. For more information about configuring your DAServer as a service, see the Activation/Deactivation/Service Component of the DAServer Manager documentation.

Configuring the DAServer

Note: This DAServer is hosted by DAServer Manager, a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in, which is a part of the ArchestrA System Management Console (SMC) suite of utilities. Many high-level functions and user-interface elements of the DAServer Manager are universal to all DAServers, and only the documentation for the DAServer Manager contains descriptions of those universal functions/UI elements. Therefore, reading the documentation for both the MMC and the DAServer Manager is critical to understanding this user’s guide. To read the documentation about the MMC and
