What is this?
1100 1010 0011 0101

PLCopen ®
How do I get access to it?

1100 1010 0011 0101
Where can I find it?

PLCopen ®
RPM =2000
HMI with graphic representation of temperature value
How ?
Controller with temperature value

PLCopen ®
It is not about the networks

It is about communication
It is not about data
It is about information

PLCopen ®
Communication (TC4)

Different entry point:
Beckhoff Cntrl Bosch-Rexroth Logic B&R Cntrl
... but semantic identical objects!

PLCopen ®
Entry point into namespace

Object types based on Full object hierarchy Entry point for DA
Function Blocks below DeviceSet Clients like HMI

PLCopen ®
Advantages for users

 Transparent Access to relevant information
• like Variables, Datatypes, Function Blocks, Structures, Tasks, etc.
 Less Engineering time in overall control systems

(Controller, HMI, SCADA, ERP, etc.)
 Transparent Communication independent from system
and network
“Communication will never be the same”

PLCopen ®
Transparent communication
independent from system and network
