8.5 Setting up an internet connection
The machine has an Ethernet connection. A secure
connection between the machine and KNECHT
Maschinenbau GmbH can be established via the
integrated VPN router. This connection can be
activated or deactivated by the operator using the
key switch on the control cabinet (8-13/1).
This connection gives the KNECHT service techni-
cian access to the control in order to diagnose the
machine, change the software settings, and load
or edit new grinding programs.
An active internet connection is required to estab-
lish the connection.
NOTICE
During commissioning, configure the VPN
router according to the specified IT infrastruc-
ture so that the machine communicates
exclusively with KNECHT Maschinenbau
GmbH via the VPN server. There is no commu-
nication within the customer network. In this
way, the network is optimally protected.
To establish the internet connection, connect
the supplied Ethernet cable to the on-site
network socket (RJ 45) and the network con-
nection on the control cabinet (8-13/2).
