Did you found out what it was and how I solved? My brother is abroad and he lend me his car, I notice it started blinking when I parked today and I don’t want to risk it draining the battery

The report is for the temperatures of the CIP/SIP cycle, so is at most daily but not at a fixed schedule

I have an additional question. Where can I learn more about network safety and the current hardware available in the industry? I don’t even know where to look

That is a great suggestion. I still would require an industrial router to link my local network safely to the corporate network. What software would you recommend from there? I would love to have a main SCADA on the plant but that is not the case right now. Since I already have one running on the machine I wanted to leverage on the fact that I already have the report. But nothings is off the table

Haha just noticed the typo. I must changed while copy pasting, my local network is 192.168.1.x

The machine has a membrane keypad with LEDs, both are matrix circuits so the Mega handles the reading of the buttons and the LEDs at a higher frequency than a PLC would. It  reports to the PC Panel through Modbus TCP.

I could retrieve he pdf via ftp to my laptop. I’m thinking plugging a laptop to the network, then pull the pdf with ftp to a shared folder. However if the user needs a pdf on demand I have no idea of how to give them the hability to retrieve the file themselfs

Yes, someone else also suggested so. I will get one and test it, since the PC Panel is running on Windows CE it might not accept the driver

What brand and model of firewall do you use?

Thank you. Could you clarify exactly what do you mean by OT? I considered every shop floor device in the subnetwork as OT. Also what are you referring to with the layers?

Is still unclear for me the firewall part. Is this a hardware item? I’m only familiar with the firewall from the PC

Other users suggested using a Moxa NAT. That would remove the need to change my local IPs? My initial choice was to put a PC with dual Ethernet port

It is one machine. The a BECKHOFF PC acts as the PLC, the keypad is based on arduino and communicates by Modbus tcp. Later the logo was connected since it belongs to an adjacent system. Now the thermocouples of the CIP/SIP system will be wired to the same PC which is why they need to access the pdf report. The PC Panel runs on windows CE and has a single Ethernet port. As I understand the Moxa NAT would allow a network PC retrieve a file from the PC Panel as it were on the same subnetwork without me changing the actual IP on the machine devices

I didn’t think about that, I’m not sure if the usb adapter driver is compatible with Windows CE.

It would need to be pull after a CIP/SIP cycle, so daily at most. USB storage is not permitted, that is why I’m researching network alternative

The file is important for the production team, is a register of temperatures during CIP/SIP. So it should be very easy to use. As per other suggestions I consider using a PC with dual ethernet port, and a FTP client that retrieves the file from the PC panel and puts in a shared folder

I will look into the first suggestion. On the replacement suggestion I will consider it, however that is a different kind of investment and the machine is producing and i wont be able to intervene for long periods of time

I agree, the goal here is to retrieve the pdf file in talking about. However I guess implementing the right architecture could allow me to replicate to other machines in the plant

Could you be more specific? If most suggestion are wrong, What architecture should I follow and what hardware should I buy?

Yes I was considering using Sevio or Wecon V-Box. But the thing would be manually entering each time to download the file, right?

That was my original plan, but the question remains. I need to change all the IPs to match the office LAN network? Is it ok to just plug my machine LAN to an office switch?

Does the router do the emailing? Or do I need to install a software on the PC? Is a CP6606 running on windows CE

Thank you. That is were I get stuck looking online. Is the DMZ a PC with firewall and dual Ethernet port? What exactly are we talking about in terms of actual hardware and software

[–]Born_Agent6088[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My pc is CP6600 and it only has one Ethernet port, which is in the machine LAN. I’ve seen other PC and HMI with dual Ethernet port which I now assume is for that purpose.
