Introduction

The IBH Link UA additional contains a SoftPLC. The SoftPLC is able to read and write variables from the OPC UA server.

The integrated SoftPLC can be used for data preprocessing and supports the programming languages LAD, FBD, STL, SCL or S7-GRAPH.

Commissioning

Activate the integrated SoftPLC

First, the SoftPLC needs to be activated using the web interface:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Insert.png


Define SoftPLC within PLC project

Therefore on the defined slot of the PC station a SoftPLC must be added.


SIMATIC Manager:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Insert STEP7.png


IBH Link UA SoftPLC S7 Configuration STEP7.png


TIA Portal:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Catalog TIA.png


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Configuration TIA.png


A S7 connection between the SoftPLC and the OPC UA Server must be established:


SIMATIC Manager:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC S7 Connection STEP7.png


TIA:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Server Connections TIA.png


The SoftPLC supports the programming languages LAD, FBD, STL, SCL or S7-GRAPH.

SoftPLC Status and Settings

The SoftPLC Status can be monitored on the web interface:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Status.png


The performance of the SoftPLC can be adjusted:


CPU Share PLC processing time (1000 mixed instructions)
50% apx. 360 µs
33% apx. 550 µs
25% apx. 720 µs
20% apx. 900 µs
12% apx. 1800 µs


Furthermore, the status of the SoftPLC Connections is available.:

Server Function

A S7 connection between the SoftPLC and the OPC UA Server must be established::


SIMATIC Manager:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC S7 Connection STEP7.png


TIA:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Server Connections TIA.png


Within the properties of the OPC Server at <General> <S7> <OPC tags> the OPC Tags can be selected:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Server OPC Variables.png


Now the configuration needs to be downloaded to the IBH Link UA:

The configuration is now completed and the tags from the SoftPLC within the IBH Link UA are available :

Client Function

Cyclic Read and Write

The SoftPLC is able to read and write the OPC variables cyclically.
The configuration will be done within the SFB 8 (USEND) and called during the warm start (OB100).

Parameter Declaration Data type Storage area description
REQ INPUT BOOL E, A, M, D, L Not evaluated
ID INPUT WORD M, D, Const. Fixed value: 65400
R_ID INPUT DWORD E, A, M, D, L, Const. Mode
Low Byte:
0: Read(Variable as XML String)
1: Write(Variable as XML String)
2: Read(PLC Variable)
3: Write(PLC Variable)
4: Read(Special Variable)
5: Write(Special Variable)
6: Read(Server Variable)
7: Write(Server Variable)

Flag 14:While writing the Any Pointer points to DATE_AND_TIME
Flyg 15: While writing the Any Pointer points to a STRING

High Word:
Sampling in milliseconds
DONE OUTPUT BOOL E, A, M, D, L is not set
ERROR OUTPUT BOOL E, A, M, D, L ERROR=0:
The parameters were passed correctly
ERROR=1:
The parameters were passed not correctly
STATUS OUTPUT WORD E, A, M, D, L 0x0000 on success, 0x8090 on error.
SD_1 IN_OUT ANY D Pointer to the OPC Variable.
SD_2 IN_OUT ANY E, A, M, D Pointer to the OPC Variable for the value of the OPC Variable.
Allowed is Data Type BOOL, BYTE, CHAR, WORD, INT, DWORD, DINT, REAL, DATE, DATE_AND_TIME.

Note:
If the ANY pointer points to a DB, the DB must always be specified (f.i.: P# DB10.DBX5.0 Byte 0).

SD_3 IN_OUT ANY E, A, M, D Pointer to the PLC Variable for the status of the Variable.
Allowed is Data Type DWORD
Note:
If the ANY pointer points to a DB, the DB must always be specified (f.i.: P# DB10.DBX5.0 Byte 10).
SD_4 IN_OUT ANY D Pointer to the PLC Variable for the Time Stamp.
Allowed is Data Type DATE_AND_TIME.
Note:
If the ANY pointer points to a DB, the DB must always be specified (f.i.: P# DB10.DBX5.0 Byte 10).


The OPC Variables are defined as follows:


Mode 0 and 1: ´ns=<Namespace>;s=<Identifier>´
or: ns=<Namespace>;i=<Numeric Identifier>´
All OPC Variables can be read using this mode. The IBH Link UA knows the following Namespaces


Namespace Area
0 General OPC Server Variables
1, 2, 3, 5 No evaluable variables
4 All PLC specific OPC variables
6 IBH Link UA Special Variables
Mode 2 and 3: ´<Identifier>´
The identifier is formed as follows:
<Station name>.<PLC Name>.<GlobalVars>.<Variable name from Variables table>
or:
<Station name>.<PLC Name>.<Programs>..<Variable name>


Mode 4 and 5: <Numeric Identifier>
Number of the Special Variable from Namespace 6.
Modus 6 and 7: <Numeric Identifier>
Number of the Server Variable from Namespace 0.


Sample TIA Portal

Create a function block for the client configuration:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Create New Block.png


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Config Block.png


The PLC Variable OutputVal will be written cyclically into the OPC Variable S7-1500.S7-1500.GlobalVars.InputVal.
The sampling rate is 16#00c8 or 200 milliseconds.
The OPC Status is written in the same cycle as Output Val into the variable # Status_1 and the time stamp of the cycle into the variable # timestamp_1 .
Now the configuration block must be called within OB100.

Server Bridge

The basic procedure is described at IBH Link UA Client Functions.

The server, between which a communication should be established, need to be defined.

First, the own server URL of the IBH Link UA is specified:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Discovery Servers.png


Furthermore, the desired security level can be chosen.

Now the variables of the SoftPLC can be selected for reading:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Select Variables To Read.png


and can be connected to a variable of another OPC UA Server:


IBH Link UA SoftPLC Connect Variables.png



PUT / GET Functions

Configured Connection

The PUT(SFB 15) and GET(SFB 14) blocks can be used to read and write data directly from a S7 controller with the SoftPLC integrated in the IBH Link UA. Data can be read or written from freely addressable data areas of the partner PLC.

For this purpose, a S7 connection from the IBH SoftPLC to the desired PLC can be configured within the Simatic Manager or the TIA Portal:

IBH Link UA SoftPLC Put Get TIA.png

Download: TIA Sample: IBH Link UA SoftPLC PUT GET S7-1200


SFB15 PUT Special function

The SFB15 PUT can also be used to enter own S7 connections on top of the connections already made with STEP7 or TIA. To do this, the SFB15 PUT with the special ID 65400 is called within the OB100("Complete restart"). The ADDR and SD fields are then used to specify the connection information.

Usage: To access another PLC on Rack 0 Slot 2, only the IP address and the number of the new local ID are required.

    CALL  PUT , "InstanceDbPut"
    REQ : = TRUE
    ID : = 65400
    DONE : = "DoneFlag"
    ERROR : = "ErrorFlag"
    STATUS : = "StatusWord"
    ADDR_1 : = P#DB10.DBX0.0 BYTE 20  // IP address or host name as character array in the form "192.168.1.22" 
    ADDR_2 : =
    ADDR_3 : =
    ADDR_4 : = P#DB10.DBX24.0 WORD 1  // If another port than 102 is used, it can be specified as WORD
    SD_1 : = P#DB10.DBX26.0 WORD 1          // Number of the new, free local ID as WORD
    SD_2 : =
    SD_3 : =
    SD_4 : =


Usage: To access another PLC on Rack 0 Slot 1 (wthin our sample a S7-1200), not only the IP address and the number of the new local ID are required, in this case also the TSAPs need to be specified.

    CALL  PUT , "InstanceDbPut"
    REQ : = TRUE
    ID : = 65400
    DONE : = "DoneFlag"
    ERROR : = "ErrorFlag"
