Client2 walkthrough

Client 2 Walkthrough

Client 2 connects to the Server on port 30001.
It sends its Serial Number as a PDO every 2s to Cob-ID 0x206.
Every device on the bus will receive this message, because the Server has enabled MultiTalk.

Device Variables

Add the following Device Variables, with the following settings (change highlighted objects as necessary):

Object Setting
0x3000:0x01 [Wi-Fi Operating Mode] 0x01 [Infrastructure]
0x3000:0x10 [Enable 2.4GHz WiFi Band / Infrastructure only] 0 Disabled
0x3000:0x11 [Enable 5GHz WiFi Band / Infrastructure only] 1 Enabled
0x3008:0x03 [Bluetooth Enable] 0 Disabled
0x3008:0x09 [BLE Enable] 0 Disabled
0x3008:0x02 [WiFi Enable] 1 Enabled
0x3000:0x04 [WiFi Authentication Type] 7 [WPA/WPA2 Mixed]
0x3000:0x09 [WiFi DCHP Mode] 1 [DHCP Client (WiFi infrastructure only)]
0x3000:0x25 [WiFi Region] As Appropriate
0x3000:0x02 [WiFi SSID] PDO_Server
0x3000:0x05 [WiFi Authentication Key] ChocolateCake4Breakfast!
0x3010:0x15 [Connection Direction Configuration/Server or Client 1] 3 [Client enabled]
0x3010:0x16 [Connect Type 1] 1 [TCP Socket]
0x3010:0x17 [URL Address/WiFi Client only 1] 192.168.0.34
0x3010:0x18 [Socket Listen Port/WiFi only 1] 30001
0x4050:0x03 [Node Id CAN 1] 54
0x4050:0x04 [Node Id CAN 2] 55

Also add 0x1018:0x04 [Serial Number] as a Device Variable in order to be able to send it in the next step configuring PDO.

Object Setting
0x1018:0x04 [Serial Number] (Used for reading only)

PDO configuration

Overview

  1. Add one PDO, rename as necessary

  2. Setup a cyclic message, transmitting every 2 seconds to 0x206
