Axel: Linked the detailed S7-1200/1500 optimized data blocks guide

This page converts the former PDF manual '''“PLC projects with TIA Portal V17”''' into current, maintainable wiki documentation. The PDF describes IBH Link UA and IBH OPC UA Server/Client V5.27. The workflows below have been updated for the current IBH OPC UA Server/Client 6.10.

== Quick overview ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Step !! Result
|-
| Prepare the PLC project || CPU, network and data blocks are compiled and consistent.
|-
| Import the project || The TIA Portal project is imported with the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]].
|-
| Select variables || Only the required symbols and structures are exposed through OPC UA.
|-
| Validate and transfer || The editor checks the configuration and transfers it to the server.
|-
| Verify the connection || The Web Configurator and an OPC UA client show status and live values.
|}

== Requirements ==
* a current TIA Portal project that compiles without errors
* a reachable controller with a unique IP address or device name
* the current [[IBH OPC UA Editor]]
* access to the IBH OPC UA Server/Client Web Configurator
* the appropriate license scope for the required functions
* an OPC UA test client such as UaExpert

For S7-1200 and S7-1500, the IBH OPC UA Server/Client supports '''[[IBH OPC UA:S7-1200/1500 optimized data blocks|access to optimized data blocks]]'''. Always use the current TIA Portal project so that symbolic names, data types and the block layout match the controller.

== Recommended current workflow ==
=== 1. Prepare the TIA Portal project ===
# Open the project in TIA Portal.
# Verify the CPU type, firmware, PROFINET interface, IP address and subnet.
# Compile hardware and software completely.
# Download the PLC program and verify that the CPU is in RUN.
# Ensure that all variables intended for OPC UA have clear symbolic names.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_TIA_Optimized_Configuration.png|thumb|center|700px|Network and device configuration in TIA Portal. This image is taken from the archived V5.27 manual; labels may differ in current TIA Portal versions.]]

=== 2. Import the project with the IBH OPC UA Editor ===
# Start the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]].
# Create a project or read the existing configuration from the target server.
# Import or open the TIA Portal project.
# Select the required CPUs, data blocks, structures and variables.
# Review data types, access rights, descriptions and update requirements.
# Validate the project in the editor.

The former '''IBH OPC Editor''' is no longer the recommended configuration tool for this workflow. Use the '''IBH OPC UA Editor'''.

=== 3. Transfer the configuration ===
# Connect the editor to the IBH OPC UA Server/Client.
# Compare the target system with the project before transferring.
# Transfer the validated configuration.
# Open the controller or slot view in the Web Configurator.
# Check the connection state, CPU assignment and number of configured variables.

=== 4. Test OPC UA access ===
# Read the endpoint URL from the Web Configurator.
# Connect the OPC UA client to this endpoint.
# For a secure connection, verify and trust the correct server certificate.
# Browse the address space and add test variables to the data view.
# Verify reading, writing, timestamps and status codes according to the configured access rights.

== Alternative: SIMATIC PC station configuration ==
The archived manual also describes an OPC server configured as a SIMATIC PC station. This remains relevant for existing projects.

# Add a SIMATIC PC station to the TIA Portal project.
# Insert the OPC server component and Ethernet interface.
# Create the S7 connection between the OPC server and the CPU.
# Select the OPC symbols.
# Compile the PC station.
# Import the generated configuration into the IBH OPC UA Server/Client.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_TIA_S7_Connection.png|thumb|center|800px|S7 connection between OPC server and CPU in the archived TIA Portal example. For new projects, importing with the IBH OPC UA Editor is recommended.]]

== Examples covered by the former manual ==
=== Historical data ===
# Configure and test the PLC variables as normal OPC UA variables first.
# Enable the required variables in the Web Configurator's '''History''' section.
# Set buffering and persistent storage as required by the target system.
# Verify access with a client that supports Historical Access.

=== Integrated OPC UA Client ===
The integrated client reads values from external OPC UA servers and connects them to variables in the local address space.

# Add the external server with its endpoint and security settings.
# Trust the server certificate.
# Select read variables on the external server.
# Connect them to local target variables.
# Verify status, timestamp and client diagnostics.

See [[IBH OPC UA:Client functions|Client functions]].

=== Alarms & Conditions ===
* Configure alarms and message texts in the PLC project.
* Import the related variables and alarm data.
* Enable the compliant OPC UA alarm model when required by the project.
* Verify states, acknowledgement and message texts in an OPC UA event view.

=== Integrated S7 SoftPLC ===
The integrated [[IBH OPC UA:Integrated S7 SoftPLC|S7 SoftPLC]] can be configured as an additional controller. Download program and data blocks only to the intended SoftPLC instance and verify RUN/STOP and diagnostics before testing OPC UA.

=== Multiple controllers and routing ===
For projects with multiple CPUs:

* assign a unique address and slot to every CPU
* test routed connections through IBH Link S7++ or IBH Link S5++ separately
* structure variable names so that station and CPU are unambiguous
* verify each connection individually before enabling cross-station data exchange

== Diagnostics ==
; Controller remains disconnected
: Check IP address, subnet, CPU state, routing, slot assignment and firewall.

; Variables are missing or have the wrong data type
: Recompile the TIA Portal project, import it again in the IBH OPC UA Editor and transfer the updated configuration.

; An optimized data block cannot be accessed
: Compare the CPU and project versions, verify the symbolic variable and use a CPU/firmware combination supported by the current product.

; OPC UA client rejects the connection
: Check the endpoint, system time, security policy, user authentication and certificate trust.

IBH OPC UA:S7-1200/1500 optimized data blocks

2026-08-05T15:12:44Z

Axel: Explained S7-1200/1500 access and optimized data blocks using the Web Configurator image

The IBH OPC UA Server/Client can read symbolic variables online from an S7-1200 or S7-1500. This also makes '''optimized data blocks''' available in the OPC UA address space without maintaining fixed absolute byte offsets.

== Requirements ==
* The S7-1200 or S7-1500 is reachable over Ethernet.
* The current TIA Portal project is fully compiled and downloaded to the CPU.
* Symbolic names and data blocks in the CPU match the project version.
* CPU protection and access settings permit authorized online access.
* Credentials are available when the CPU is protected.
* The IBH OPC UA Server/Client license is valid.

== Web Configurator view ==
Open '''S7-1200/1500''' in the Web Configurator.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_S7_1200_1500_Optimized_Data_Blocks.png|thumb|center|1000px|Symbolically read S7-1200 and S7-1500 variables. The example shows global and instance data blocks together with their OPC access attributes.]]

The image shows two controllers read online. The detected CPU order number and firmware version are displayed below each controller.

The variable tree is divided into the following areas:

; GlobalVars
: Global CPU areas such as inputs, outputs, memory, timers and counters.

; Programs
: Programs and data blocks available in the CPU.

; DataBlocksGlobal
: Global data blocks containing scalar variables, arrays, structures and user-defined data types.

; DataBlocksInstance
: Instance data blocks belonging to function blocks. They are shown separately from global DBs.

The tree uses the symbolic names stored in the CPU. For optimized data blocks, the server uses this symbolic information; the application does not need to maintain absolute offsets.

== Add a controller and read variables ==
# Select '''Insert PLC'''.
# Enter a unique PLC name.
# Enter the CPU's Ethernet address.
# Select a timeout appropriate for the network.
# For a protected CPU, enter the required credentials.
# Confirm the dialog. The server connects and reads the online tags.
# Expand the CPU, '''Programs''', '''DataBlocksGlobal''' or '''DataBlocksInstance'''.
# Verify that the expected blocks, structures and variables are present.
# Activate the configuration with '''Apply'''.

Reading the online tags can take some time depending on the project size, CPU and network. Do not interrupt the CPU connection during this operation.

== Meaning of the OPC columns ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Column !! Value 1 !! Value 0
|-
| '''Visible in OPC''' || The node is published in the OPC UA address space. || The node is hidden from the OPC UA address space.
|-
| '''Accessible in OPC''' || An OPC UA client may access the value. || Access to the value is blocked at the OPC layer.
|-
| '''Write protection in OPC''' || The value is exposed as read-only by the OPC UA server. || Writing is permitted at the OPC layer, provided that CPU protection and user permissions also allow it.
|}

An empty field means that no separate value is displayed for the node. Check the setting of the parent data block or structure.

In the image, '''EvData1''' and '''EvData2''' have:

* '''Visible in OPC = 1'''
* '''Accessible in OPC = 1'''
* '''Write protection in OPC = 0'''

Both variables therefore appear in the OPC UA address space and can be accessed. They are not write-protected at the OPC layer. Whether a write succeeds also depends on CPU protection levels, variable properties and OPC UA user permissions.

== Configure visibility and access rights ==
Expose only the variables that OPC UA applications require.

* Select a structure or data block to apply consistent settings where appropriate.
* Disable '''Visible in OPC''' when the node must not appear in the address space.
* Disable '''Accessible in OPC''' when the node belongs to the structure but its value must not be accessed.
* Enable '''Write protection in OPC''' when clients may only read the value.
* Select '''Apply''' to activate pending changes.

Permissions on parent structures and data blocks can affect child elements. Review critical variables individually.

== Changes to the TIA Portal project ==
After changing data blocks, structures, data types or symbolic names:

# Compile the TIA Portal project completely.
# Download the changes to the correct CPU.
# Select the controller in the Web Configurator.
# Select '''Refresh PLC'''.
# Review the variable tree and OPC attributes.
# Select '''Apply'''.
# Browse again from OPC UA clients if the address space has changed.

'''Refresh PLC''' replaces the previously read online tags with the current CPU state. Pay particular attention to deleted or renamed variables.

== Functional test with an OPC UA client ==
# Connect to the IBH OPC UA Server/Client endpoint.
# Verify the server certificate and security policy.
# Open the S7-1200 or S7-1500 station in the address space.
# Select a global or instance data block.
# Read test variables and check their status codes and timestamps.
# Write only to variables explicitly intended for writing.
# Verify the new value online in TIA Portal.

== Buttons shown in the image ==
; Insert PLC
: Creates a new online connection to an S7-1200 or S7-1500.

; Modify PLC
: Changes the connection parameters of the selected controller.

; Remove PLC
: Removes the selected controller from the configuration.

; Refresh PLC
: Reads the CPU, programs, data blocks and symbolic tags online again.

; Apply
: Activates pending configuration changes.

; Remove all
: Removes all configured S7-1200/1500 controllers. Create a backup before using this function.

== Troubleshooting ==
; Controller not reachable
: Check the IP address, subnet, CPU state, network path and firewall.

; Access denied
: Check the CPU protection level, user or password, and permitted communication access.

; Secure connection initialization failed
: Check the CPU certificate, system time, firmware and security settings.

; A data block or variable is missing
: Compile and download the project, then select '''Refresh PLC'''.

; A variable is visible but cannot be read
: Check '''Accessible in OPC''', CPU protection and OPC UA user permissions.

; A write is rejected
: Check '''Write protection in OPC''', CPU access protection, data type, variable properties and user permissions.

IBH Link UA:Python/Methods/Data models

2026-08-05T15:00:15Z

Axel: Added availability note for Python, methods and data models on IBH OPC UA Server/Client

'''Availability:''' On the device platform, this function is enabled on the '''IBH Link UA QC''' because Python functions require additional memory. The 64-bit '''[[Main Page#IBH_OPC_UA_Server/Client|IBH OPC UA Server/Client]]''' for Windows and Linux PCs also supports '''Python, OPC UA methods and custom data models'''. The following concepts and examples therefore apply to both products; with the IBH OPC UA Server/Client, projects and Python modules are transferred using the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]] or the Web Configurator. Methods can now be realized with the Python programming language and data can be exchanged and processed more easily.
Some examples of the implementation of complex functions: 
* Complex tasks can be automated, such as the monitoring of machine parameters or the optimization of production processes. 
* Large amounts of data can be analyzed and evaluated in order to identify trends and patterns to optimize processes.

=Structure of a Python program=

The special functions of the IBHLinkUA are imported in the Python program. For initialization, the IBHLinkUA calls the function "init_opc()".
Example:
import ibhua 
def init_opc():
return
Several Python programs can be read in. Python programs without these special functions are also possible.

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Nodeset.png|504px]]

== Visual Studio Code==
To obtain a convenient code autocompletion in Visual Studio Code, the definition file ibhua.pyi can be copied into the working directory. 
'''[http://download.ibhsoftec.com/neutral/ibhua.pyi.zip ibhua.pyi]'''

=Functions from the '''ibhua''' module=
== RedirectLogOutput() ==
Redirects all print, stdout and stderr outputs to the system log. This can be viewed in the web interface under "Diagnostics - System Log".

Example:
import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

def init_opc():
print("Test")

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Redirect.png|839px]]

==setSystemLog (Group,logtext,status)==
Writes an entry to the system log. This can be viewed in the web interface under "Diagnostic system events".
Parameter:
- Group : String
- logtext : String
- Status : Integer

Example:
import ibhua

def init_opc():
ibhua.setSystemLog("my Group","my Logtext",4711)

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_setsystemlog.png|845px]]

Sets a breakpoint. When the breakpoint is reached, the debugger is activated. 
The debugger can be accessed via a web browser using port 5555.

Example:
import ibhua

def init_opc():
a=1
ibhua.Breakpoint()
b=a+20
b=b+a+20

After loading the example:

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Breakpoint1.png|845px]]

After pressing the Step button:

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Breakpoint2.png|1612px]]

== OPCReadVar(node) ==
Function for reading OPC nodes.

Parameter:
* node: Nodeid
* Return value: Scalar value or string variable
Examples:

import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

def init_opc():
clock=ibhua.OPCReadVar("ns=0;i=2258")
print(clock)

In this example, the current time is entered in the diagnosis after the restart.

== monitor("node", "Monitor Function", Interval, Triggermode, Deadband) ==
When the OPC variable "Node" is changed, the "Monitor function" is called.

'''Interval''': determines the sampling interval in ms.

„Triggermode“ :
* 0 = is always triggered
* 1=Trigger on value change
* 2=Trigger on rising edge
* 3=Trigger on falling edge

'''Deadband''': determines the minimum value change that leads to the trigger 
The monitor function contains an input parameter with the read value.

Example:
import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

def Monitor(Var):
print(Var)
return

def init_opc():
ibhua.monitor("ns=0;i=2258","Monitor",1000,0,0)
return

In this example, the current time is entered in the diagnosis every second.

== OPCWriteVar(node,var) ==

Function for writing scalar nodes and string nodes. The OPC type is automatically determined from the target variable.

Parameter:
* node: Nodeid
* var: Scalar oder String value

Example:

import ibhua

def Monitor(Var):
ibhua.OPCWriteVar("ns=4;s=QuadcoreNodesetExample.SoftPLC.Generic.ActualWatch",Var)
return

def init_opc():
ibhua.monitor("ns=0;i=2258","Monitor",1000,0,0)
return

In this example, the time is entered every second in the PLC string variable '''QuadcoreNodesetExample.SoftPLC.Generic.ActualWatch'''.

== OPCResult() ==

Returns the result of the OPCReadVar, OPCWriteVar and OPCCallMethod functions. 
Parameter:
* Returnwert: 0=Successful

=Access to external OPC servers=
To access external OPC servers, an external server must first be set up in the client function.

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Select_Server.png|1386px]]

The functions:

'''OPCReadVar'''

'''OPCWriteVar'''

'''OPCCallMethod'''

the server name is specified as the first parameter.

'''Attention ! The server name must be entered exactly as in the web interface (note the space before the "(") !'''

Example:
ExternalServer = "urn:ibhlinkua-002808:IBHsoftec:IBHLinkUA (opc.tcp://10.0.12.88:48010)"
…
OPCVar=ibhua.OPCReadVar(ExternerServer,"ns=4;s=PC-Station.Software PLC_1.GlobalVars.Tag_1")

==OPCConnectedServers ()==
This function returns a list of the connected OPC servers.

With this function you can easily determine the complete name of an external server.

Example:

In the following examples, it is assumed that you have established a connection to the Unified Automation demo server (opc.tcp://opcuaserver.com:48010) in the client function.

import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

ExternalServer=""

def init_opc():
#search in ExternalServers "opcuaserver.com"
ExternalServers=ibhua.OPCConnectedServers ()
print (ibhua.OPCConnectedServers ())
for line in ExternalServers:
if "opcuaserver.com" in line:
ExternalServer=line
if ExternalServer:
print (ExternalServer)
else:
print("no external Server")

if ExternalServer:
FillLevelSetPoint=ibhua.OPCReadVar(ExternalServer,"ns=2;s=Demo.BoilerDemo.Boiler1.FillLevelSetPoint")
print(FillLevelSetPoint)

==OPCCallMethod(ExternalServer,object-nodeid, method-nodeid)==
Calling a method without parameter

Parameter:
* ExternalServer
* object-nodeid : Nodename of the parent object
* method-nodeid : Nodename of the method
* return : Result (0=successful)

Example:

import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

ExternalServer=""

def init_opc():
#search in ExternalServers "opcuaserver.com"
ExternalServers=ibhua.OPCConnectedServers ()
for line in ExternalServers:
if "opcuaserver.com" in line:
ExternalServer=line

if ExternalServer:
result=ibhua.OPCCallMethod(ExternalServer,"ns=2;s=Demo","ns=2;s=Demo.StartSimulation")
print(result)

==OPCCallMethod(ExternalServer,object-nodeid, method-nodeid,[parameter_1,…parameter_n)==

Calling a method with parameter:

Parameter:
* ExternalServer
* object-nodeid : Nodename of the parent object
* method-nodeid : Nodename of the method
* [parameter]: Input parameter list
* return Output parameter list

Example:

import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

ExternalServer=""

def init_opc():
#search in ExternalServers "opcuaserver.com"
ExternalServers=ibhua.OPCConnectedServers ()
for line in ExternalServers:
if "opcuaserver.com" in line:
ExternalServer=line

if ExternalServer:
results=ibhua.OPCCallMethod(ExternalServer,"ns=2;s=Demo.Method","ns=2;s=Demo.Method.Multiply",[2.14,3.5])
status=ibhua.OPCResult()
if status==0:
for result in results:
print(result)
else:
print("Error")

Here is an example that controls a method with parameter from the PLC::

import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

ExternalServer=""

def Multiply(var):
global ExternalServer
if ExternalServer:
Mul_a=ibhua.OPCReadVar("ns=4;s=QuadcoreNodesetExample.SoftPLC.Generic.Mul_a")
Mul_b=ibhua.OPCReadVar("ns=4;s=QuadcoreNodesetExample.SoftPLC.Generic.Mul_b")
results=ibhua.OPCCallMethod(ExternalServer,"ns=2;s=Demo.Method","ns=2;s=Demo.Method.Multiply",[Mul_a,Mul_b])
status=ibhua.OPCResult()
if status==0:
for result in results:
ibhua.OPCWriteVar("ns=4;s=QuadcoreNodesetExample.SoftPLC.Generic.MUL_Result ",result)
else:
print("Error")

def init_opc():
global ExternalServer
#search in ExternalServers "opcuaserver.com"
ExternalServers=ibhua.OPCConnectedServers ()
for line in ExternalServers:
if "opcuaserver.com" in line:
ExternalServer=line

ibhua.monitor("ns=4;s=QuadcoreNodesetExample.SoftPLC.Generic.StartMul","Multiply",1000,2,0)

=Working with nodesets=

It is now possible to read in nodesets and link them to Python modules.

The nodesets are created with UAModeler or SiOME (freeware from Siemens).
The project is an output as an XML file in the modeller. 
You can find documentation on the SiOME here: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/document/109755133/siemens-opc-ua-modeling-editor-(siome)?dti=0&lc=de-DE

The manual can be found here: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/attachments/109755133/109755133_SiOME_MAN_V27_de.pdf

Execute "Modelling the address space" according to the manual and export the information model (3.19):

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Siome.png|762px]]

Load the information model

[[File:IBH_Link_UA_Siome_Nodeset.png|504px]]

The created object then appears in the address space of the OPC server:

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Nodeset_Example.png|432px]]

Now the variables and methods can be linked to the Python program.
== OPCError (OPC error code) ==

Cancels execution if the error code is not 0 and returns the OPC error code.

If a '''0''' is passed, the function has no effect.

== get_namespace(name) ==
This function returns the namespace number. The namespace '''name''' is specified as the input parameter.:

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Name_Space.png|441px]]

Example:
import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

def init_opc():
ns=ibhua.get_namespace("http://example.com")
print(ns)

== method(ns, id, "function") ==

Links a method defined in an imported nodeset with a '''Python''' function.

Parameter:
* ns : Namespace number
* Id : Nodename or Numeric ID
* OPC function, that is called with the method
The function contains an argument for each input parameter and can return an argument for each output parameter.

Functions without an output parameter may not return a value.

The function result (success/failure) must generally be transferred with OPCError().

'''id''' can be determined with the UAExpert :

[[Image:IBH_Link_UA_Attributes.png|345px]]

Example:
import ibhua
ibhua.RedirectLogOutput()

def UserMethod(a,b):
result=0
c=a*b
ibhua.OPCError(result)
return c

def init_opc():
ns=ibhua.get_namespace("http://example.com")
ibhua.method(ns,7000,"UserMethod")

==variable(ns, id, "read function", "write function")==
Links a variable defined in an imported nodeset with a '''Python''' function.

Parameter:
* ns : Namespace number
* Id : Nodename or numeric ID
* read function : Function that is called when the variable is read
The function does not contain an input parameter and one output parameter.
* write function : Function that is called when the variable is written
The function contains one input parameter and no output parameter
Example:

import ibhua

OPCVar=123.456

def UserRead():
result=0
global OPCVar
ibhua.OPCError(result)
return OPCVar

def UserWrite(var):
result=0
global OPCVar
OPCVar=var
ibhua.OPCError(result)
return

def init_opc():
ns=ibhua.get_namespace("http://example.com")
ibhua.variable(ns,6008,"UserRead","UserWrite")

==map(ns, id, ns_destination, id_destination )==
Connects the OPC variable (ns,id) to another variable.

The advantage of this function is that no Python program is run during reading and writing. (faster)

'''Attention: The data types must match!'''

Parameter:
* ns : Namespace number
* id : Nodename or numeric ID
* ns_destination : Namespace number of the target variable
* id_destination : Nodename or numeric ID of the target variable
* node : NodeID of the variable in another namespace
*
* Return value: 1=successful, -1=not successful

Example:

import ibhua

def init_opc():
ns=ibhua.get_namespace("http://example.com")
ibhua.map(ns,6011,4,"QuadcoreNodesetExample.SoftPLC.Generic.PLCFloatVar")

IBH OPC UA:Manual

2026-08-05T14:36:18Z

Axel: Created current English online manual hub and marked the V5.27 PDFs as archived references

The former PDF manuals have been converted into current online wiki documentation. These pages cover IBH OPC UA Server/Client 6.10, the 64-bit Windows and Linux PC versions, the IBH OPC UA Editor, access to optimized data blocks, and the new Copilot server-based licensing process.

IBH OPC UA:Startup operations

2026-08-05T14:35:39Z

Axel: Converted the V5.27 PDF into current version 6.10 commissioning documentation with 64-bit and new licensing

The '''IBH OPC UA Server/Client''' is a 64-bit software solution for Windows and Linux PCs. This guide replaces the commissioning section of the V5.27 PDF manual and describes the current workflow for version 6.10.

== Workflow at a glance ==
# Install the software and start the service or server.
# Open the Web Configurator and set the administrator password.
# Check the network, endpoint and firewall.
# Configure OPC UA security and certificates.
# Activate the license online or with a signed JSON license file.
# Transfer the PLC or device project with the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]].
# Test controller connections and OPC UA access.
# Back up the configuration.

== Installation ==
=== Windows ===
# Download the current 64-bit setup from the IBHsoftec download area.
# Run the setup with administrative privileges.
# Select the components required for the target computer.
# Restart the computer if requested by the setup.
# Start the IBH OPC UA Server/Client or its service.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Start_Server.png|thumb|center|500px|Starting the IBH OPC UA Server/Client. The appearance may differ depending on the Windows and product version.]]

The Windows tray application provides quick access to start/stop, the Web Configurator and diagnostics. If the tray icon is not visible, start '''IBH OPC UA Tray''' from the Windows Start menu.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Start_Tray.png|thumb|center|350px|Starting IBH OPC UA Tray from the Start menu.]]

=== Linux PC ===
Use the 64-bit package supplied for the target platform and follow the installation instructions included with it. The server runs as a service. Start, stop, logging and automatic startup are controlled by the service manager of the Linux distribution. Do not copy Windows runtime, configuration or license paths to Linux.

== Open the Web Configurator ==
On Windows, the Web Configurator can be opened from the tray menu.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Open_Web.png|thumb|center|500px|Opening the Web Configurator from the tray.]]

Alternatively, open:

* on the server PC: <code>http://localhost:<web-port></code>
* from another computer: <code>http://<IP-address-or-hostname>:<web-port></code>

The web port is shown in the local configuration or tray menu. For remote access, allow this port explicitly in the firewall.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Web_Login.png|thumb|center|800px|Signing in to the Web Configurator. Older screenshots may differ from the current dialog.]]

Use the credentials selected during installation or initial setup. Change any factory or temporary administrator password immediately after the first sign-in. Store it securely; losing the administrator password may require a reset.

== Basic configuration ==
=== Network and endpoint ===
# Check the computer's hostname, IP address, subnet and default gateway.
# Select the OPC UA port according to the plant network design.
# Record the displayed endpoint URL.
# Allow only the required web, OPC UA and, if used, outgoing client or MQTT connections in the firewall.
# Prefer a DNS-resolvable hostname.

An endpoint URL has the form <code>opc.tcp://server-name:port</code>. The hostname or IP address must match the server certificate used by the client.

=== OPC UA security ===
# Enable only the security policies and message modes that are required.
# Prefer signed and encrypted connections.
# Disable anonymous access when the application requires user authentication.
# Use compatibility options for insecure legacy connections only when strictly required.
# Verify the system date, time and time zone.

=== Certificates ===
The '''Certificates''' section manages server, client and trust lists.

* identify untrusted client certificates before trusting them
* replace expired certificates
* use CSR and certificate import for CA-signed certificates
* when using GDS, check assigned certificate groups and issuers
* protect certificate backups and private keys

== Licensing ==
The former activation process based on a hardware ID, email, serial number and PIN is obsolete.

Preferred '''online activation''' uses:

* the license serial number
* its associated eight-digit secret
* a connection to the Copilot license server

For offline systems, the Web Configurator creates the system-bound file <code>ibhlinkua-license-request.json</code>. After external processing, install the signed JSON license file on the target system.

See [[IBH OPC UA:Licensing|Licensing]] for the complete procedure.

== Transfer a project ==
Use the free [[IBH OPC UA Editor]] for new projects.

# Add the target server in the editor.
# Read the existing server configuration when required.
# Import or create a STEP7, TIA Portal or editor project.
# Select controllers, data blocks and variables.
# Validate the project.
# Transfer the configuration to the server.
# Verify connection and variable status in the Web Configurator.

For S7-1200 and S7-1500, '''access to optimized data blocks''' is supported. The imported project must match the version downloaded to the CPU.

See [[IBH OPC UA:TIA Portal examples|TIA Portal examples]] and [[IBH OPC UA:STEP7 SIMATIC Manager examples|STEP7 / SIMATIC Manager examples]].

== Functional test ==
=== Server status ===
The Web Configurator must show a plausible server uptime, endpoint and license status. Then check controller diagnostics for every configured connection.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Web_System.png|thumb|center|800px|System view of an older version. The current view also contains the new license status and additional diagnostics.]]

=== Test with an OPC UA client ===
# Add the endpoint.
# Select the security policy and message mode.
# Verify the server certificate fingerprint and issuer.
# Sign in when anonymous access is disabled.
# Browse the address space.
# Read test variables and write only where intended.
# Check status codes and timestamps.

== Additional functions ==
After successful basic commissioning, the following functions can be configured depending on the target system and license scope:

* integrated OPC UA Client and HOT redundancy
* History
* Alarms & Conditions
* MQTT including Sparkplug B
* Modbus TCP/RTU
* Mitsubishi and Rockwell connectivity
* SINUMERIK/CNC
* GDS certificate management
* integrated S7 SoftPLC
* Docker management on supported installations

Enable extensions one at a time and back up the working configuration before major changes.

== Backup and restore ==
# Open the '''System''' section in the Web Configurator.
# Create a configuration backup.
# Store the backup and related license information securely.
# For a system migration, create a new license request; a license file cannot simply be copied to another computer.
# After restoring, verify network, certificates, license and all connections.

== Troubleshooting ==
; Web Configurator cannot be reached
: Check service status, web port, local binding, firewall and URL.

; OPC UA client cannot connect
: Check the endpoint, OPC UA port, security policy, system time, certificate and user authentication.

; Controller remains disconnected
: Check the IP address, rack/slot, routing, CPU state and project version.

; Variables are missing
: Recompile the project, import it again in the IBH OPC UA Editor and transfer the current configuration.

; Online activation fails
: Check Internet access, DNS, proxy, firewall, system time, license serial number and eight-digit secret.

IBH OPC UA:STEP7 SIMATIC Manager examples

2026-08-05T14:34:38Z

Axel: Converted the V5.27 PDF into current STEP7 / SIMATIC Manager wiki documentation with images

This page converts the former PDF manual '''“PLC projects with S7 – SIMATIC Manager”''' into current wiki documentation. The PDF is based on STEP7 V5.6 and IBH Link UA / IBH OPC UA Server/Client V5.27. The workflow below reflects the current IBH OPC UA Server/Client 6.10.

== Quick overview ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Step !! Result
|-
| Check the STEP7 project || Hardware, networks and symbols are consistent.
|-
| Create the OPC UA project || Controllers and variables are imported with the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]].
|-
| Transfer the configuration || The server receives the validated project.
|-
| Diagnose and test || Controller connectivity and OPC UA values are verified.
|}

== Requirements ==
* an existing STEP7 project in SIMATIC Manager
* a reachable S7-300, S7-400, or S5/S7 controller connected through a suitable adapter
* correctly configured PG/PC interface and IP/MPI/PROFIBUS parameters
* the current [[IBH OPC UA Editor]]
* access to the Web Configurator
* an OPC UA test client

== Recommended current workflow ==
=== 1. Prepare the STEP7 project ===
# Open the project in SIMATIC Manager.
# Check the CPU order number, firmware, rack and network configuration.
# Compile the hardware and blocks.
# Download the PLC program and verify that the CPU is in RUN.
# Maintain clear symbolic names in the symbol table.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_STEP7_Hardware_Configuration.png|thumb|center|700px|S7-400 hardware configuration in the archived STEP7 example. The CPU and firmware selection must match the physical target system.]]

=== 2. Import variables with the IBH OPC UA Editor ===
# Create or open a project in the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]].
# Import the STEP7 project.
# Select the required stations, CPUs, data blocks and symbols.
# Review the data type, address, access rights and description of every required variable.
# Validate the configuration and transfer it to the IBH OPC UA Server/Client.

For new configurations, the '''IBH OPC UA Editor''' is the applicable tool. The former generic instructions for the '''IBH OPC Editor''' have been replaced.

=== 3. Verify connectivity and diagnostics ===
# Open the controller or slot view in the Web Configurator.
# Check the address, rack, slot and any routing parameters.
# Open controller diagnostics.
# Test the endpoint URL with an OPC UA client.
# Read and write only variables whose configured access rights permit the operation.

== Alternative: SIMATIC PC station from the PDF manual ==
The archived manual describes a SIMATIC PC station containing an OPC server and Industrial Ethernet interface.

# Add a SIMATIC PC station.
# Insert the OPC server and IE General / Industrial Ethernet component.
# Configure the local IP address.
# Create the S7 connection to the CPU.
# Select OPC symbols, save and compile the station.
# Import the configuration into the IBH OPC UA Server/Client.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_STEP7_PC_Station.png|thumb|center|700px|SIMATIC PC station from the archived STEP7 manual. For new projects, importing through the IBH OPC UA Editor is recommended.]]

== Examples covered by the former manual ==
=== Data blocks and structures ===
* Verify global data blocks and structures in the PLC program first.
* Import only the required elements as OPC UA variables.
* After changing a structure, recompile and reimport the STEP7 project.
* Test consistent reading and writing of large arrays or structures separately.

=== Historical data ===
After a successful online test, selected variables can be enabled in the '''History''' section. Configure the buffer length and persistent storage for the target system. The OPC UA client must support Historical Access.

=== Integrated OPC UA Client ===
# Add the external OPC UA server with its endpoint and security settings.
# Trust the certificate and browse the address space.
# Select a read variable and connect it to a local target variable.
# Verify the status, timestamp and client diagnostics.

See [[IBH OPC UA:Client functions|Client functions]].

=== Alarms & Conditions ===
The STEP7 example uses PLC messages and an OPC UA event view. Import the message texts and related variables, enable the alarm model required by the project, and verify acknowledgement and state changes.

=== S5/S7 routing and multiple CPUs ===
* Test the adapter and routing path independently before configuring OPC UA.
* Document rack, slot, MPI/PROFIBUS address and target IP.
* Use a separate connection and clear namespace for each CPU.
* Commission and diagnose multiple connections one at a time.

=== Integrated S7 SoftPLC ===
The [[IBH OPC UA:Integrated S7 SoftPLC|integrated S7 SoftPLC]] can be configured as a WinLC RTX-compatible station. Check the program version, RUN/STOP state and diagnostics before testing variables.

== Troubleshooting ==
; CPU cannot be reached
: Check the PG/PC interface, network, rack/slot, adapter mode, routing and firewall.

; Symbols or data blocks are missing
: Recompile the STEP7 project and symbol table, then import them again with the IBH OPC UA Editor.

; Values are incorrect or cannot be written
: Check the data type, absolute address, access rights and PLC program.

; OPC UA connection is not trusted
: Check the system time, endpoint, certificates, security policy and user authentication.

IBH OPC UA:TIA Portal examples

2026-08-05T14:33:48Z

Axel: Converted the V5.27 PDF into current TIA Portal wiki documentation with images

This page converts the former PDF manual '''“PLC projects with TIA Portal V17”''' into current, maintainable wiki documentation. The PDF describes IBH Link UA and IBH OPC UA Server/Client V5.27. The workflows below have been updated for the current IBH OPC UA Server/Client 6.10.

== Quick overview ==
{| class="wikitable"
! Step !! Result
|-
| Prepare the PLC project || CPU, network and data blocks are compiled and consistent.
|-
| Import the project || The TIA Portal project is imported with the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]].
|-
| Select variables || Only the required symbols and structures are exposed through OPC UA.
|-
| Validate and transfer || The editor checks the configuration and transfers it to the server.
|-
| Verify the connection || The Web Configurator and an OPC UA client show status and live values.
|}

== Requirements ==
* a current TIA Portal project that compiles without errors
* a reachable controller with a unique IP address or device name
* the current [[IBH OPC UA Editor]]
* access to the IBH OPC UA Server/Client Web Configurator
* the appropriate license scope for the required functions
* an OPC UA test client such as UaExpert

For S7-1200 and S7-1500, the IBH OPC UA Server/Client supports '''access to optimized data blocks'''. Always use the current TIA Portal project so that symbolic names, data types and the block layout match the controller.

== Recommended current workflow ==
=== 1. Prepare the TIA Portal project ===
# Open the project in TIA Portal.
# Verify the CPU type, firmware, PROFINET interface, IP address and subnet.
# Compile hardware and software completely.
# Download the PLC program and verify that the CPU is in RUN.
# Ensure that all variables intended for OPC UA have clear symbolic names.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_TIA_Optimized_Configuration.png|thumb|center|700px|Network and device configuration in TIA Portal. This image is taken from the archived V5.27 manual; labels may differ in current TIA Portal versions.]]

=== 2. Import the project with the IBH OPC UA Editor ===
# Start the [[IBH OPC UA Editor]].
# Create a project or read the existing configuration from the target server.
# Import or open the TIA Portal project.
# Select the required CPUs, data blocks, structures and variables.
# Review data types, access rights, descriptions and update requirements.
# Validate the project in the editor.

The former '''IBH OPC Editor''' is no longer the recommended configuration tool for this workflow. Use the '''IBH OPC UA Editor'''.

=== 3. Transfer the configuration ===
# Connect the editor to the IBH OPC UA Server/Client.
# Compare the target system with the project before transferring.
# Transfer the validated configuration.
# Open the controller or slot view in the Web Configurator.
# Check the connection state, CPU assignment and number of configured variables.

=== 4. Test OPC UA access ===
# Read the endpoint URL from the Web Configurator.
# Connect the OPC UA client to this endpoint.
# For a secure connection, verify and trust the correct server certificate.
# Browse the address space and add test variables to the data view.
# Verify reading, writing, timestamps and status codes according to the configured access rights.

== Alternative: SIMATIC PC station configuration ==
The archived manual also describes an OPC server configured as a SIMATIC PC station. This remains relevant for existing projects.

# Add a SIMATIC PC station to the TIA Portal project.
# Insert the OPC server component and Ethernet interface.
# Create the S7 connection between the OPC server and the CPU.
# Select the OPC symbols.
# Compile the PC station.
# Import the generated configuration into the IBH OPC UA Server/Client.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_TIA_S7_Connection.png|thumb|center|800px|S7 connection between OPC server and CPU in the archived TIA Portal example. For new projects, importing with the IBH OPC UA Editor is recommended.]]

== Examples covered by the former manual ==
=== Historical data ===
# Configure and test the PLC variables as normal OPC UA variables first.
# Enable the required variables in the Web Configurator's '''History''' section.
# Set buffering and persistent storage as required by the target system.
# Verify access with a client that supports Historical Access.

=== Integrated OPC UA Client ===
The integrated client reads values from external OPC UA servers and connects them to variables in the local address space.

# Add the external server with its endpoint and security settings.
# Trust the server certificate.
# Select read variables on the external server.
# Connect them to local target variables.
# Verify status, timestamp and client diagnostics.

See [[IBH OPC UA:Client functions|Client functions]].

=== Alarms & Conditions ===
* Configure alarms and message texts in the PLC project.
* Import the related variables and alarm data.
* Enable the compliant OPC UA alarm model when required by the project.
* Verify states, acknowledgement and message texts in an OPC UA event view.

=== Integrated S7 SoftPLC ===
The integrated [[IBH OPC UA:Integrated S7 SoftPLC|S7 SoftPLC]] can be configured as an additional controller. Download program and data blocks only to the intended SoftPLC instance and verify RUN/STOP and diagnostics before testing OPC UA.

=== Multiple controllers and routing ===
For projects with multiple CPUs:

* assign a unique address and slot to every CPU
* test routed connections through IBH Link S7++ or IBH Link S5++ separately
* structure variable names so that station and CPU are unambiguous
* verify each connection individually before enabling cross-station data exchange

== Diagnostics ==
; Controller remains disconnected
: Check IP address, subnet, CPU state, routing, slot assignment and firewall.

; Variables are missing or have the wrong data type
: Recompile the TIA Portal project, import it again in the IBH OPC UA Editor and transfer the updated configuration.

; An optimized data block cannot be accessed
: Compare the CPU and project versions, verify the symbolic variable and use a CPU/firmware combination supported by the current product.

; OPC UA client rejects the connection
: Check the endpoint, system time, security policy, user authentication and certificate trust.

IBH OPC UA:Licensing

2026-08-05T13:37:17Z

Axel: Updated licensing to Copilot server, online activation and signed JSON files

== Overview ==
The '''IBH OPC UA Server/Client''' for Windows and Linux PCs uses Copilot server-based licensing.

The preferred method is online activation with the '''license serial number''' and its associated '''eight-digit secret'''. For systems without Internet access, manual activation is available using a system-bound license request and a signed JSON license file.

== License status ==
In the Web Configurator, open the '''System''' page and locate the '''License''' section. It displays:

* status of the installed license
* licensee
* license serial number
* validity period
* enabled features

A license may be displayed as '''Valid''', '''Expired''' or '''Invalid'''. If no license is installed, the status is '''No license file'''. For a license without an expiry date, the validity field displays '''Unlimited'''.

== Online activation ==
Online activation requires Internet access to the Copilot license server, the license serial number and the associated eight-digit secret.

# In the Web Configurator, open the '''System''' page.
# Go to the '''License''' section.
# Under '''Online activation''', enter the license serial number.
# Enter the eight-digit secret.
# Select '''Activate online'''.
# Wait until the license has been downloaded, verified and installed.
# Verify the license status, licensee, serial number, validity period and enabled features.

The secret is only required for activation and should be treated as confidential.

== Manual activation without Internet access ==
If the target system cannot access the Internet, the license can be transferred manually.

# In the Web Configurator, open the '''System''' page and the '''License''' section.
# Under '''Manual alternative – License request''', select '''Download'''. The Web Configurator creates <code>ibhlinkua-license-request.json</code>.
# Transfer this request file to a computer with Internet access and use the designated IBHsoftec/Copilot licensing process to obtain a signed license file.
# Transfer the signed JSON license file back to the target system.
# Under '''Manual alternative – License file''', select and install the file.
# Verify the displayed license status and enabled features.

The license request is bound to the target system. Do not modify either the request file or the signed license file.

== Reinstallation and system migration ==
A license is bound to its system. An existing license file therefore cannot simply be copied to another computer. For a system migration, create a new license request and contact IBHsoftec to arrange the transfer or reissue of the license.

Also back up the IBH OPC UA Server/Client configuration before reinstalling the software.

== Troubleshooting ==
; Online activation fails
: Check the Internet connection, DNS, proxy and firewall settings, system time, license serial number and eight-digit secret.

; License file is rejected as invalid
: Use only the unmodified signed JSON license file for the system on which the license request was created.

; License has expired
: Check the displayed validity period and renew the license if necessary.

; A required feature is missing
: Compare the displayed features with the purchased license scope.

{{DISPLAYTITLE:IBH OPC UA Editor}}

The '''IBH OPC UA Editor''' is the free Windows tool for configuring the
IBH Link UA and the IBH OPC UA Server/Client. Configurations can be created,
checked, imported and exported offline, transferred directly to the OPC UA
server, or read back from the server.

'''Page status: August 2026.''' The public download is still labelled
'''Version 7.50'''. Functions that require support from the target server are
only available when the connected IBH Link UA or IBH OPC UA Server/Client has
a suitable firmware version.

__TOC__

== Overview ==

The workspace is divided into the '''Project''', '''Server''' and
'''Certificates''' views:

* In '''Project''', server connections, controllers, programs, variables, external data and other configuration objects are edited.
* In '''Server''', the configuration read online, status information, historical data and UA nodes are displayed.
* In '''Certificates''', the editor certificate and the certificates of connected servers are managed.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Overview.png|800px|thumb|center|Structure of the IBH OPC UA Editor with Project, Server and Certificates views.]]

A project can contain multiple OPC UA servers. Multiple controllers and
stations can be assigned to each server.

=== Supported projects and devices ===

Variables and data blocks can be imported from the following projects, among
others:

* TIA Portal V13 to V21;
* STEP 7 / SIMATIC Manager;
* S5/S7 for Windows and SIMATIC S5;
* LOGO! Soft Comfort;
* SINUMERIK and NC-VAR Selector.

Supported target systems include SIMATIC S5, S7-200, S7-300, S7-400, S7-1200,
S7-1500, LOGO! 8, SINUMERIK, Modbus devices, Mitsubishi PLCs and robots, and
Rockwell controllers. Depending on the device, IBH Link S5++ or IBH Link S7++
can be used for controllers without their own Ethernet interface.

== Quick start: from an empty project to an active connection ==

# '''Create a server connection:''' Select <code>Edit > New server connection</code> and enter the name, address and port of the OPC UA server.
# '''Select endpoint and security:''' Retrieve endpoints from the server and select the security policy, message mode and login method.
# '''Add a controller or station:''' Specify the protocol, IP address and, for S7 TCP/IP, the rack, slot and target module if required.
# '''Assign a program:''' Select the project and open the required CPU or station.
# '''Activate variables:''' Select variables, check their properties and transfer the configuration to the server.

== Server connection and security ==

A server connection contains a freely selectable connection name, server
address, port, endpoint URL, security policy, message mode, login details and
session name. A reverse connection can be used when a server in a protected
network must establish an outgoing connection to the client.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Server_Connection.png|520px|thumb|center|Properties of a new OPC UA server connection.]]

Different formats are available for variable names. The selected format must
match the setting of the target server, especially for dots in symbolic names
and for compact or S7-1500-compatible formatting.

The editor supports anonymous login, user name and password, and
certificate-based connections. Depending on the endpoint, signing or signing
and encryption can be selected. Different certificate stores and certificate
groups can be selected. The local PKI folder can be configured in the settings.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Security.png|700px|thumb|center|Selection of a security policy, certificate and connection endpoint.]]

== Assigning a controller and program ==

When a controller is added, its name, host name or IP address, protocol and
connection parameters are defined. Use <code>Test connection</code> to check
that the controller is reachable before continuing with the configuration.

Select <code>Assign program</code> to open the offline project and choose the
corresponding CPU or station. Password-protected TIA Portal projects from V15
to V21 can be opened with a user name and password. For TIA Portal projects,
the matching TIA Openness component and the required group membership must be
available.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Program_Selection.png|700px|thumb|center|Selecting a CPU or station from an offline project.]]

== Selecting and editing OPC tags ==

After a program has been assigned, the editor displays symbols, data blocks
and structures. Individual variables or complete branches can be activated as
OPC tags. The search function helps to find variables quickly in large
projects.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Variable_Selection.png|900px|thumb|center|Selecting program variables and data block structures as OPC tags.]]

Variable properties include the OPC name, data type, address, access rights,
comment, measurement and scaling values, limits, and historical data settings.
The UA node identifier is displayed and can be copied.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Variable_Properties.png|600px|thumb|center|Properties of an OPC tag, including the OPC name and access rights.]]

== Transferring, reading, importing and exporting configurations ==

Configurations can be transferred to the server for individual sections or
as a complete project. The configuration stored on the server can also be read
back into the editor. Existing project and XML files can be imported and
exported again.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Transfer_Configuration.png|650px|thumb|center|Transferring a configuration from the Project view to the OPC UA server.]]

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Import_Configuration.png|650px|thumb|center|Importing an existing configuration file.]]

The Server view displays server information, status, historical data and the
address space. The complete XML node identifier is displayed for UA nodes and
can be used in external clients or scripts. Namespaces of the connected server
can be exported as XML nodesets.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_UA_Nodes.png|700px|thumb|center|Online display of the OPC UA address space with node identifiers and attributes.]]

== External data, variable transfer and MQTT ==

Additional OPC UA servers can be connected under '''External data'''. Variable
transfer maps source variables from one server to target variables. Duplicate
and multiple assignments are checked, and array ranges can also be mapped.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Variable_Transfer.png|900px|thumb|center|Mapping source and target variables in the variable transfer view.]]

User-defined variables create a separate address space. Variables read from
the server are cached and can be read again with <code>Refresh</code>.

For MQTT connections, the broker address, client ID, credentials, topics,
message template, last-will message, certificates and other security parameters
can be configured. Availability depends on the target device and its firmware.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_MQTT_Configuration.png|750px|thumb|center|Properties of an MQTT connection.]]

== Modbus, Mitsubishi and SINUMERIK ==

=== Modbus ===

Modbus TCP and RTU devices are added as separate configurations. For every
variable, the data type, unit ID, address, limits, historical data settings and
UA node identifier can be defined.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Modbus_Configuration.png|700px|thumb|center|Adding a Modbus configuration.]]

=== Mitsubishi and Rockwell ===

Mitsubishi PLCs and robots are added as stations; their programs and variables
can then be selected and edited. Rockwell ControlLogix and CompactLogix
controllers are also supported.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_Mitsubishi_Configuration.png|800px|thumb|center|Mitsubishi configuration in the Project view.]]

=== SINUMERIK ===

For SINUMERIK 840D SolutionLine and PowerLine as well as SINUMERIK ONE, CNC
stations can be added, the model can be read and NC variables can be activated.
The integrated PLC is configured separately as a controller. NC-VAR Selector
files can be imported to extend the address space.

[[File:IBH_OPC_UA_Editor_SINUMERIK_Configuration.png|520px|thumb|center|Connection parameters of a new SINUMERIK CNC station.]]

== Nodesets, information models and Python ==

XML nodesets can be added as information models, edited, refreshed, imported
and exported. The complete nodeset configuration can be read from the server
or transferred to it.

The editor generates Python module templates from a nodeset, either with or
without variable instances. Names are checked during generation so that only
valid Python identifiers are created. Variables and methods in an information
model can therefore be linked to Python functions on the IBH Link UA.
