Online Access - System Sockets

3 sockets are required for Online Access:

  • 1x driver 3S Tcp/Ip or 3S Tcp/Ip L2 Route on port 1201
  • 1x driver ABB Tcp/Ip AC on port 1200
  • 1x listen on port 1200/1201 if PLC has established online connection

ETHERNET Protocols and Ports for AC500 V2 Products

Online access can be established from:

  • IEC 61131-3 editor V2.3.9.x (Online -> Login)
  • OPC Server
  • Control Builder Plus up from V2.1.0/Automation_Builder
  • Panel CP600 series

Each established connection needs 1 socket.

In addition, 1 socket on port 1200 and 1 on port 1201 is listening.

Example

  • Startup PLC

    => 2 sockets:

    1 socket on port 1200 and 1 on port 1201 listen

  • Login from IEC 61131-3 editor V2.3.9.x via driver ABB Tcp/Ip L2 AC on port 1200

    => 3 sockets:

    2 sockets on port 1200 (1x Online, 1x Listen) and 1 socket on port 1201 listen

  • Additional login out of PS501 Control Builder Plus with the same driver:

    3 sockets on port 1200 (2x Online, 1x Listen) and 1 socket on port 1201 listen

    => 4 sockets:

  • Additional connect CP600 via driver 3S Tcp/Ip L2 Route => 5 sockets:

    3 sockets on port 1200 (2x Online, 1x Listen) and

    2 sockets on port 1201 (1x Panel, 1x Listen)
