OPC UA-Kari-02-21-2020
Hi,
I want to use RoboDK OPC UA to communicate with PLC to make a simulation. For example use the PLC to rotate the component and use robot in RoboDK to weld the component. In other words: Make robot and PLC communicate in the simulation. Could you make a youtube tutorial on how to use the OPC UA from RoboDK and communcate with a PLC program? For example Omron Cx-one program?
Best Regards Kari

Hi Kari,
I recommend you to activate the OPC-UA plugin:
- Select Tools-Plug-Ins
- Select Load Plug-In
- Select OPC-UA
//www.sinclairbody.com/forum/Thread-OPC-UA-in-RoboDK
If you use software that can interact with OPC-UA protocol (such as UaExpert) you'll be able to see the default parameters set by RoboDK. RoboDK can work as a server and as a client. If you want RoboDK to work as a client you may need to customize the plugin with some coding (GitHub link).
You can also customize integration using our API.
