8.4.3
Setting IP parameters
A prerequisite for establishing a connection via OPC UA is the setting of the IP parameters
(Page 61) in the 3RW5 communication module.
Note
IP parameters of the PROFINET connection
If you have already set IP parameters in the 3RW5 communication module for the PROFINET
connection, you can use these IP parameters and read them out via the setting options. A new
setting is not necessary. If you change the set IP parameters, also take this change into account
in a possible PROFINET connection to the PLC.
Setting options
You will find the setting options in chapter Setting IP parameters (Page 95).
Note the information in chapter IP parameters (Page 61).
Note
Keeping IP parameters of the OPC UA server
If the OPC UA server should always be accessible via the same IP address, static IP parameters are
recommended.
URL of the OPC UA server
The URL of the OPC UA server depends on the IP address and the port (Page 112) set in the
3RW5 communication module and is made up as follows:
• Protocol identifier ("opc.tcp://")
• IP address
• Port
Example:
If the IP address 192.168.0.2 and port 4840 are set in the 3RW5 communication module, the
OPC UA server has the following URL: opc.tcp://192.168.0.2:4840
Result
You have set the IP parameters and can establish a connection via OPC UA.
8.4.4
Port
A prerequisite for establishing a connection via OPC UA is the setting of the "Port" parameter in
the 3RW5 communication module. The "Port" parameter is part of the URL of the OPC UA server
(Page 112).
