Installing the SINUMERIK ONE Plugin

You can install the plugin on either a NCU (internal HMI on Unix) or a PCU (external HMI on Windows).

Installation on the NCU

The required installation files can be found in the octoplant setup under /Tools/Sinumerik/ONE. There is a separate subdirectory for each version.

  1. Copy the following files from the setup to /card/addon/sinumerik/hmi/appl on the HMI.

    • libVDogUploadSinumerikOperate.so

    • vdoguploadsinumerikoperatedialog.hmi

  2. Copy the file VDogUploadSinumerikOperate.ini and from the setup (/Tools/Sinumerik) to /card/addon/sinumerik/hmi/cfg/ and adapt it to your device.

  3. Adjust the file systemconfiguration.ini. This is located on the HMI under /addon/sinumerik/hmi/cfg/.

  4. Enable the port in the firewall.

    5. Modify the basesys.ini file in the /card/user/system/etc/ directory on the HMI to enable the port in the firewall. Use the port that you have set in the VDogUploadSinumerikOperate.ini file. The default port is 42000.

    Example:

    [LinuxBase]
    [...]
    FirewallOpenPorts="TCP/5900 TCP/5901 TCP/102 TCP/42000"
    [...]

  5. Restart the machine after making this change.

  2. Copy the following two files to <drive:>\<installation folder>\Siemens\MotionControl\addon\sinumerik\hmi\appl.

    3. Example:

    C:\Program Files\Siemens\MotionControl\addon\sinumerik\hmi\appl

  3. Copy the file VDogUploadSinumerikOperate.ini to <drive:>\<installation folder>\Siemens\MotionControl\addon\sinumerik\hmi\cfg and adapt it to your device.

  4. Modify the systemconfiguration.ini file in the /addon/sinumerik/hmi/cfg directory.

  5. Enter the file run_hmi.exe in the firewall and enable it so that the octoplant server or upload agent can communicate with the plugin. You can find the file in the directory: <drive:>\<installation folder>\Siemens\MotionControl\Siemens\ sinumerik\hmi\autostart\.

  6. Restart the HMI application.
