Mounting and Connection

The IBH Link UA is designed for DIN rail mount:

ACHTUNG.png

ATTENTION!

Use only supply voltage from 12V to 36V to operate the device. Higher voltage may destroy the device.

Power supply: 24VDC / 0,2A




Configuration of the IP addresses

The administration can be made with a recent web browser over the Ethernet port 1 by using the host name http://ibhlinkua_<serial number> (f.i. http://ibhlinkua_001180)

or over the ports 2-4 by entering the default IP Address 192.168.1.14

No other tools are required.

Default IP Address configuration:

Level Port Address
Management level Port 1 Host name: ibhlinkua_<serial number>
Control level Port 2 - 4 192.168.1.14

Default Login:

Network: Management Level

Network configuration for Port 1 (Management level respectively Supervision Level):

Network: Control Level

Network configuration for Port 2 - 4 (Control Level respectively Machine Level):

From both levels the Endpoint URL can be copied:

The Endpoint URL is provided by the IBH Link UA and is the destination URL for the OPC Client.

In our sample, the UA Expert diagnostic client from Unified Automation is shown:

Time Settings

ACHTUNG.png

Before creating certificates, the clock of the IBH Link UA must be set with the correct date and time!

Security

OPC UA defines different Security Levels:

IBH Link UA Security.png

There are different levels of encryption None, Basic128Rsa15 and Basic256

None No encryption
Basic128Rsa15 128 Bit encryption
Basic256 256 Bit encryption

The IBH Link UA supports the level Sign, Sign and Encrypt and Sign + Sign and Encrypt

Sign The messages contain signed certificates
Sign and Encrypt The messages contain signed certificates and are encrypted
Sign + Sign and Encrypt The messages may contain only signed certificates, or can be signed and are encrypted as well




Certificates

ACHTUNG.png

Before creating certificates, the time of the IBH Link UA must be set

Exchange of Certificates is another important security level of OPC UA.

A communication is only possible, if both Server and Client have a valid certificate assigned by the respective partners.

After setting the time of the IBH Link UA, a new server certificate can be created:

To get the best reliability of the Server Certificate, all fields need to be completed in detail:

If an existing Server Certificate shall be used with the IBH Link UA, it can be uploaded via the button <Upload Server Certificate>.

Make the IBH Link UA Server Certificate visible for the Client:

OPC UA clients usually detect server certificates automatically, when the first connection is established

or they offer other options for the handling of certificates.

Make the Client Certificate visible for the IBH Link UA Server:

After the client has accepted the server certificate, it will send the client certificate.

Whether new certificates are existing, can be checked using the Refresh button or the key <F5>:

Once the certificate is trusted, the communication with the Client can be established:

Historical Data

While OPC Data Access allows the access to data in real time, supports OPC Historical Access, also called OPC HDA access, access to already stored data. From simple data logging systems to complex SCADA systems historical data can be queried on standardized manner. The activation of the Historical data is easily performed using the web browser.
