Network Communication

18.4 Network Services
Double-click on Network Services in the Network Connections folder in the Project
Manager to select the services the operator panel is to provide in the network. Check-
ing a service activates it. To enter properties for the selected service, click Edit.
Application Transfer Server
Transfer of projects through TCP/IP. Select Application transfer server in the list and
click Edit to enter the number of the port to enable the transfer. Does not normally
need to be changed.
BDTP
BDTP is a protocol which uses client/server communication. Not available for
E1012 and E1022. A client asks for information and a server provides clients with
information. The BDTP server listens to the I/O request from the BDTP client. The
operator panel can be client, server, or both. The client can collect data from a max-
imum of 16 servers. The server IP addresses are specified in the BDTP client. Each
server can provide 20 clients with information.
Network communication via BDTP is used to connect two or more E1000 operator
panels to one or two controllers or several operator panels to two or more controllers,
with retained performance. One example is production lines with one operator panel
at each work station.
If the BDTP server fails, the client will continue to work with the system to which it
is physically connected. The client will not restart when it tries to connect to the serv-
er. When the server becomes active, BDTP communication will continue as
previously.
The command BTIMx can be used to adjust the BDTP reply timeout. Select Setup/
System Signals and type BTIMx on the Commands line, where x represents number
of seconds to wait for a response from a BDTP server/client before assuming the con-
nection as lost. The minimum value is 1 second. The default value, i.e. when the
command is not used, is 20 seconds.
