1 Introduction This document will help you get started with com.tom and CODESYS. CODESYS is the leading IEC61131-3 compatible PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) environment. It runs on many variants of the CTI (com.tom INDUSTRY) devices. The CODESYS development environment enables comfortable software development for industrial applications. The special runtime system allows mapping variables of the PLC program to the com.tom PORTAL. 2 Scope This documentation covers the software package. runs on devices with the following name pattern: CTI <network interfaces>. <type>. <wireless connection>. C e.g. CTI 140.MBUS.UMTS.C 3 System start-up 3.1 What do we need to get started? Required hardware components: CTI device running the software Power supply unit Ethernet cable Required software components: Ethernet network interface Microsoft Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 Internet connection Web-browser (We recommend Mozilla Firefox or Chrome) com.tom-ip-tool (can be downloaded at https://www.com-tom.de/download) CODESYS (can be downloaded at https://www.codesys.com/download.html) Required skills by the developer: Basic knowledge in CODESYS V3 3.2 Step 1 Cable the device Use an Ethernet cable to connect the CTI device to your PC. If you have an existing network infrastructure, use a patch cable to connect the com.tom to your hub or switch. If not, use a crossover cable to directly connect the com.tom s Ethernet jack to your PC s Ethernet jack. Now connect the power supply unit to the CTI s power supply jack to power the device. 3.3 Step 2 Setup CODESYS Before getting in contact with the you have to install the CODESYS development environment. You can download the latest version at https://www.codesys.com/download.html. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 3 of 18

3.4 Step 3 Configure the device To be able to access the com.tom s, the device must have a valid IP address and we have to know it. Therefore we ll use the com.tom-ip-tool. If you have not yet downloaded and installed this tool, please do so now. You can get it at https://www.com-tom.de/download. When you start the com.tom-ip-tool it will scan for com.tom devices on the local network. The MAC IDs of the devices will be put on a list. Select the MAC ID of your device from the list. The MAC ID can be found on the label on the device s housing. You ll now be shown the actual IP configuration of the device. By default the device will try to get an IP address from a DHCP server at start. If this does not work, an auto IP will be activated. Check if the current settings match the needs of your network. If you are in doubt, ask you network administrator. If the configuration does not match, you may change it. Deselect the Use DHCP checkbox. Change the addresses as required and eventually click the Configure button. The IP-Tool will Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 4 of 18

ask for a password. By default this password is com.tom. Wait for the confirmation Configuration completed. If you re running a firewall, make sure that it does not block any network functions of the com.tom-ip-tool. 3.5 Step 4 Configure your I/Os and variables Go to the web interface of your CTI device and configure your inputs/outputs (e.g. Modbus): Now configure the variables you want to communicate with the portal. Save your settings by pressing OK and reboot your device. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 5 of 18

When the device has been rebooted, please go to Services > CODESYS export and click on Download to save the CODESYS device description file. 3.6 Step 5 Install the target description file Open your CODESYS workbench and go to Tools > Device Repository Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 6 of 18

Click Install and select the device description file you exported before in step 4: Now you can close the device repository and continue with Step 6. If you later want to change the I/O configuration, please repeat this step, right click on the device and select Update device. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 7 of 18

3.8 Step 6 Set up portal communication Of course we want to see the counter value on the com.tom PORTAL. Press the Settings icon to go to the settings page. On the settings page there are several tabs on which you can adjust various configurations. On the Portal tab we have to configure the access data for the com.tom PORTAL. You have received these data when you registered the device with the com.tom PORTAL. If you have not yet registered the device, please do so first 1. Timeout field determines how long the portal communication module will wait for replies from the portal before the connection is considered broken. The keep-alive interval determines the maximum number of seconds with no payload data traffic before the keep-alive handshake will be carried out. The required interval depends on your network infrastructure. A value of 0 disables the keep-alive mechanism. Keep-alive timeout is the number of seconds the peers wait for each other's keep-alive messages before the connection is considered broken. After entering the data, press the OK button to store your changes on the device. 1 Refer to the Getting Started documentation com.tom PORTAL Manual. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 11 of 18

It is assumed that the com.tom device has access to an existing internet connection via its Ethernet interface. If this is not true, please refer to section 4.1 on how to configure the cellular modem. Besides the intrinsic internet connection the com.tom device needs a DNS server to resolve domain names like demo.com-tom.io into IP addresses. It is common practice to distribute the address of the DNS server via DHCP. However, if your DHCP server does not distribute a DNS server address or if you have manually set the device s IP configuration, you will have to configure the DNS server address by hand. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 12 of 18

To do so switch to the Network tab. Here you can configure network settings like the DNS server address. You can also configure a proxy server. Proxy servers are typically used in company networks to filter network traffic. If you are in doubt regarding the settings on this tab, please ask your network administrator. Press the OK button to store your changes. Then press the Reboot icon to restart your com.tom device in order to apply your changes. After some time the device s Portal LED will light up indicating communication with the com.tom PORTAL. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 13 of 18

3.9 Step 7 Use the portal s web interface Navigate your internet browser to the web interface of your com.tom PORTAL project. In our example the URL of our project is demo.com-tom.io. Log in to the portal with the login information provided to you. You will now see an overview of all devices registered with this project. Click on the identification of your current device to see its contents. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 14 of 18

There are several groups of values for this device. Open the variables group to see the portal variables. Now you can now change portalvar00 e.g. to 100 and see that portalvar01 changes to 100.000. Hover the button with the three horizontal lines and click on Config to switch to the Configuration site. Navigate to the variables section and click on the button Edit next to portalvar00. This opens a view where you can edit several properties of portalvar00. The datatype is given by the local configuration of your device and because of this it cannot be changed by the portal. Navigate back to the VIEW site. The portal variable 1 triggers the reset of the counter. If the reset becomes true then the counter variable will be set to 0. When reset becomes false again the counter starts counting. Click on the value of portal variable 1 to modify it. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 15 of 18

4 Advanced Settings 4.1 Cellular modem configuration In this section the configuration of the cellular modem will be described. Of course this description only applies if your com.tom device features a cellular modem. If not you should skip this section. Remove the power supply. Insert your SIM card into the SIM card slot that is located at the back side of the com.tom device. Push the card until it locks. Attach the power supply again. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 16 of 18

Go to the settings page and open the Cellular Modem tab. Check the Enable cellular modem checkbox. If your SIM card requires a PIN, enter it in the SIM PIN field. Enter your mobile phone provider s Access point name in the APN field. If the APN requires authentication enter the appropriate values too. Press the Save button to store your changes, then reboot your com.tom device to apply your changes. After some seconds first the com.tom s Modem LED will light up indicating that the cellular modem has been initialised. After about a minute the GSM/GPRS LED should light up indicating that an internet connection has been established via the modem. Copyright 2018 Beck IPC GmbH Page 17 of 18
