Hello, I am trying to get a test rig which tests different protocols. I know the Raspberry Pi supports ProfiNet. But I have been asked to use the Siemens PLC to control the device under test.
My thought was to setup an OPC server on the Siemens PLC and a OPC client on the Raspberry Pi. All I can find is a Codesys OPC server for Raspberry Pi. The Siemens PLC OPC software is server only.
Could two OPC servers talk to each other? I have installed a OPC client on the Raspberry Pi, which can access the Codesys OPC server on the localhost.
Snap7 wouldn't install, so gave up on that.
Thanks
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
In the future a client will be included. I found in the Siemens forum that it may be included in V15 of their Tia portal. But Siemens' website doesn't say that at all.
Thanks
