Connection Address​

The Sinumerik Driver needs an Endpoint specification. Use:

  • s840d.sl://192.168.0.80 to connect to a Sinumerik 840D SolutionLine
  • s840d.pl://192.168.0.80 to connect to a Sinumerik 840D PowerLine

To use a different port instead of 102:

  • s840d.pl://192.168.0.80:1391 to connect to a Sinumerik 840D PowerLine through port 1391

If the MPI/profibus address differs from the standard setting use following parameters:

  • s840d.pl://192.168.0.80?nck-mpi=13&plc-rack=0&plc-slot=13 to set
    • nck-mpi address to 13
    • plc-rack to 0 (optional)
    • plc slot to 13 (optional)
