OPC-UA
There are some nodes inside the RoboDK OPC UA server to let you exchange some basic information about your station.
RoboDK node is a Node that provides the Actual Version of your RoboDK Software.
The version RoboDK 64 Bit v5.5.3.23031 was used in this example.
Simulation Speed is a node that shows the actual Simulation Speed and allows the user to overwrite the current Simulation Speed.
The node value is referenced to the Slide bar of simulation speed.
The current Simulation can be read from this node and can overwrite the simulation speed.
Station Node is a node that allows the user to get the current name of the Station in RoboDK.
As you see below, the Station node is referenced to your “Station Name” in RoboDK.
Station Parameter and Station Value are a pair set Node that allows the user to get or set any parameters inside your Station. The RoboDK OPC UA Server will continuously monitor the actual value of “StationParameter” and return the Value of that “StationParameter”, from the Station Value Node.
You can view your Station parameters by Right Click your RoboDK Station>Station parameters.
In the Constant parameters field, you can see the default station parameters and their value.
Station parameter is referenced to the “Parameter” field and Station Value is referenced to the “Value” field.
And we can create our own Parameters by clicking the “Add” Button.
A new Station parameter is added.
Enter your Parameter name and the Parameter Value, then press Apply to save it.
You can get your own station parameter as well.
The node time is a node that allows you to get the current time of the RoboDK Station.
A value with DataTime format is returned.
And this Node is updated continually.
