Installing the SINUMERIK ONE plugin

You can install the plugin either on an 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 onto the HMI.
    • libVDogUploadSinumerikOperate.so
    • vdoguploadsinumerikoperatedialog.hmi
  2. Copy the file VDogUploadSinumerikOperate.ini from the setup (/Tools/Sinumerik) to /card/addon/sinumerik/hmi/cfg/ and adapt it to your device.
  3. Adapt the file systemconfiguration.ini under /addon/sinumerik/hmi/cfg/ on the HMI.
  4. Enable the port in the firewall.

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

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

  6. Restart the machine after this change.

Installation on the PCU

  1. Exit the HMI application.
  2. Copy the following two files to {Drive}:\{Installation directory}\Siemens\MotionControl\addon\sinumerik\hmi\appl.
    • VDogUploadSinumerikOperate.dll
    • vdoguploadsinumerikoperatedialog.hmi
  3. Example: C:\Program Files\Siemens\MotionControl\addon\sinumerik\hmi\appl
  4. Copy the file VDogUploadSinumerikOperate.ini to {Drive}:\{Installation directory}\Siemens\MotionControl\addon\sinumerik\hmi\cfg and adapt it to your device.
  5. Adapt the file systemconfiguration.ini in the directory /addon/sinumerik/hmi/cfg.
  6. Enter the file run_hmi.exe in the firewall and activate it so that the octoplant server or upload agent can communicate with the plugin. The file can be found in the directory: {Drive}:\{Installation directory}\Siemens\MotionControl\Siemens\sinumerik\hmi\autostart\.
  7. Restart the HMI application.
