Rexroth Open Protocol
This chapter describes the communication between the superior computer and tightening controller via
the Rexroth Open Protocol. During communication, the superior computer acts as a client and the
tightening controller acts as a server.
The Rexroth Open Protocol is a communication protocol based on TCP/IP that has been specially
developed for tightening controllers. Up to 5 clients connected to each other can be managed using the
Open Protocol.. Users can configure a tightening controller and get information on events in the
tightening controller via the client.
Example of a communication sequence:
The settings for the protocol are made via the NEXO-OS operating system in the
