The communication channels to SIMOTION devices can be defined here.

 

On the SIMOTION device the TP OAMIIF must be installed!

 

A communication channel is referenced by its name. (normally the name of the relevant PLC)

The name of the communication channel is relevant for the variable names.

The imported variable names are concatenated to a EPAM variable as follows:

 

/MIIF/<host>/<prefix>/<filename>/<variable>

 

Beispie:

host:

sim1

Variable prefix:

var

filename:

dGlobal.st

variable:

w1

 

ergibt: /MIIF/Sim1/var/dGlobal.w1

 

 

Icon-HinweisIf the prefix was omitted, the variables are imported without prefix:

 

result: /MIIF/Sim1/dGlobal.w1

 

The runtime system inserts the default prefix unit when ever the prefix is missing!

resultt: /MIIF/Sim1/unit/dGlobal.w1
