Hello Everyone,
                 Am a big data/cloud architect working on analytics from
India. Was working in IOT industry since 2 years with different clients but
mostly on analytics side than machine side. Recently when exploring about
IIOT got to know about plc4x tool. Since then trying to explore and present
to larger audience in my company if it suits our requirements.
                                                               So what am
planning right now is :                                          Read
streaming data from siemens device and push it Kafka from there dashboard.
From examples provided in documentation was able to easily correlate
pushing data into Kafka and afterwards.  But as I don't have any experience
it's hard to understand for me about the device configuration and
integrating with plc4x( I know this are basic plc questions, please bear me
with me for some time). Now in order to start my poc, I need fallowing
information. Can someone help me on this.          1. Any siemens plc
device simulator for poc?                       2. What configuration we
need and we have to check from plc side( assuming I have some temperature
kind of sensor).
                      3. How to point to plc output data from Kafka
connect?( Was confused with memory blocks, fields, etc in the code).

     I know this are very basic questions from plc side, but my no
experience with plc side make me hard to understand using Google.
                                               Last but not least, thanks
Christofer for introducing me for this platform and plc4x tool.
                                   Best Regards,

Hi Venki,

The OPC-UA simulator of this company allows you to simulate a significant
number of signals.

I think it will be useful to you,

Posted by Christofer Dutz <ch...@c-ware.de>.

to me "registerholder:34" isn't a valid Modbus address string (at least not for 0.7.0)

    about this issue.        Regards,

Re: Exploring Plc4x

Sure Cesar,
                    was unable to attach my program due to size
restrictions. But 1st am testing to retrieve holding resgister variable
locally, then will in corporate into my logstash plugin I already
implemented for OPC ua server signal simulator. Please find imp code:
Builder.addItem("value","registerholder:34").
Plcreadrequest req= builder.build().
  plcreadresponse res=req.execute().get().
 Val=res.getObject("value").
 It's throwing me timeout exception while executing execute().get() method.

Hello Cesar,.
                   Was able to configure device and signal function based
on above instructions.
 But am unable to retrieve value, am assuming due to version issue, today
will update to 0.7.0 and test then will update you.

Hi,

Please, you can use "karaf.bat" for startup.

This way the console start.

Merlot Industrial Gateway (0.0.1-SNAPSHOT)

Hit '<tab>' for a list of available commands
and '[cmd] --help' for help on a specific command.
Hit '<ctrl-d>' or type 'system:shutdown' or 'logout' to shutdown Merlot.

karaf@root()>


Karaf documentation can be found at https://karaf.apache.org

If the console starts, the Modbus server is already active, so Modbus
devices must be created.

At the command line type

karaf@root>modbus:new --help
karaf@root> modbus:new 10 test desc 1000 1000 1000 1000

Then check the configuration file for the simulation of the records as I
pointed out in the previous email.

You must verify if the instance is active, since the option "start.bat"
starts as a service, which you must kill to avoid a problem with the ports.

Take a look at the concept here https://github.com/glcj/Merlot/wiki, I will
work on the documentation shortly.

For tomorrow if you are online, we can use Google meet or other tools if
you follow the problems.

Best regards,

Hello Cesar,.
                 Can you please provide me some information regarding how
to start device, it's bit confusing.                                   I
made necessary config changes in windows, then started using start.bat file
from command line prompt. But nothing is happening. Please let me know what
am doing is correct?
               Thanks,

Re: Exploring Plc4x

Posted by Cesar Garcia <ce...@ceos.com.ve>.
Hi Venki,

Sorry for the delay, the internet connection was spectacular, the ADSL very
slow to download and very very & very slow to upload.

Attach you will find the download links for the application, the version
.zip (Windows) and .tar.gz (Linux)...

https://mega.nz/file/nhVgxAQZ#M11oLJc-N5qDnbeF_AhhsQk5ow9B3rPsIT2bt1ZORLc
https://mega.nz/file/zocg0CyT#Pk5E9nRdM-xdGNDSjAY9hl27pUpWgPDjdsO_apCE6WQ

1.  You can add a Modbus device through the command line or permanently in
the configuration file *com.ceos.merlot.modbus.dev.cfg*. You can specify
the number of elements you require (Coils, Input registers, etc.).
2. After creating the Modbus device, you can add the simulation services,
you have three:
Random: Which simulates bits and scalars in a given range of registers.
Function: Perform simple math operations
Signal: Generates continuous functions (Sinus, square, triangular and
sawtooth).
You can do this in the configuration file *com.ceos.merlot.modbus.sim.cfg*.

The configuration files can be found in the 'etc' directory.

In the case of the signals function, you can play with the frequency and
phase registers, to adjust the signal to your sampling time. Please don't
forget our friend Nyquist.

I'm going to spend some time on documentation.

Chris, this is the tool I was telling you about to incorporate into the
PLC4X project, if It meet the requirements of course.

I hope you find it useful in testing with Modbus

Best regards,...

Re: Exploring Plc4x

Hi,

Sorry,

I misunderstood your email.

You already tried from an OPC server, excellent.

Remember me next week, I am going to implement the signal simulator in
Modbus so you can do your tests with the PLC4X driver.

The important thing is that you give us feedback, on any point of
improvement of the driver.

Best regards,

Hello  Cesar,
                   I already tested with Modbus, but want to test with
streaming data ( data updated continuously) like how I tested using OPC UA
server.  Was unable to get streaming data using Modbus simulator.

Re: Exploring Plc4x

 Hello,

Why don't you try Modbus first to try out the different PLC4X tools.

It is one of the simplest and most widely used protocols. Additionally,
Chris has made excellent documentation of the tools.

https://plc4x.apache.org/users/plc4j/virtual-modbus.html

As for the Siemens Software, you can use it for 15 days by downloading it
from its pages.

My grain of sand,

Happiness,

Hi Team,.
               Was able to successfully push data from OPC UA server using
poll mechanism by fallowing example hello-kafka connectivity.
                                                                 Now I
started testing with mod bus plc then logstash and elastic search. Will
update and post if I have any questions here.

Re: Exploring Plc4x

Posted by venki hadoop <ha...@gmail.com>.
Hi,
 I was able to use prosys OPC UA simulator and able to read simulated data
using plc4x. Fallowed plc4x documentation with couple of changes.
                       Now want to extend this by pushing this data to
Kafka using kafka connector. So I went through the example provided in
GitHub , have couple of questions:.                  1 . Is that example
general to any protocal or only for any specific protocal?
                                                    2. If it is general, I
don't understand memeory block field in plc configuration pojo? Bcz in OPC
UA example o just used filed name to retrieve simulated value.
           Regards,.
                            Venkatesh

Re: Exploring Plc4x

Hi Venki welcome to the PLC4X community,

First direction we can point you to is the webinar from Julian:
https://youtu.be/MIp_0OcDTr4 There he shows in detail how to connect
Siemens PLCs to PLC4X.
Additionally he shows you how to connect to a simulated PLC server which is
maybe what you are looking for to test and develop your application with
the Kafka connector.

Best regards,
Lukas
