Physical connection to SINUMERIK 840D controller
The SINUMERIK 840D variants offer two types of physical connection. SINUMERIK 840D SL variant has
3 Ethernet interfaces while SINUMERIK 840D PL variant only provides MPI access.
3.5.1
SINUMERIK 840D SL
§ Ethernet interface X120 for the device connection to HMIs and keyboards
§ Ethernet interface X130 for the company network
§
Ethernet interface X127 for service purposes
Version EN-032023-1.10
11
edgePlug SINUMERIK CNC - User Guide
12
Ethernet interface Description
X120
X127
X130
This interface is used for connecting the automation network
(operator panel interface). The interface is not isolated by a firewall.
Ideally, the Softing dataFEED edgeConnector 840D should therefore be operated using this interface.
This interface uses the fixed IP address 192.168.214.1. For connecting to the machine network the gateway then should be configured using a fixed IP address as well(e.g. an IP address higher than
192.168.214.250).
This interface serves exclusively as a service socket (service interface). It cannot be used for connection purposes.
This interface connects the controller to the factory network
(company Ethernet).
This interface can be used as an alternative interface for connecting the dataFEED edgeConnector 840D. Here, however, the NCU firewall
(port TCP/102) has to be enabled to allow for SIMATIC S7 communication.
The Softing dataFEED edgeConnector 840D uses the SIMATIC S7 communication protocol (TCP/102) of
SINUMERIK 840D SL. By default, this protocol is available at the X120 interface. Alternatively, it can be enabled for the X130 interface.
The host PC running the dataFEED edgeConnector 840D therefore needs either a physical connection to the X120 interface and a unique IPv4 address within the corresponding network or a physical connection to the X130 interface, a unique IPv4 address within the corresponding network as well as the SIMATIC S7 communication protocol explicitly enabled for this interface.
Version EN-032023-1.10
Chapter 3 - Installation
3.5.2
SINUMERIK 840D PL
As the SINUMERIK 840D PL does not have an Ethernet interface, a D-Sub 9 connector is required for connectivity purposes to map the SINUMERIK 840D PL-specific communication to Ethernet communication.
The Softing product echolink S7-compact supports the PG/MPI to Ethernet conversion. The Ethernetto-MPI converter translates the RFC-1006 TSAP addresses to MPI addresses. As a result the default
SINUMERIK 840D PL MPI addresses are translated into the following TSAP settings:
§ TSAP NCK (powerline): 03 03
§
TSAP PLC (powerline): 03 02
It must be ensured that the SINUMERIK 840D PL has been switched on and its communication settings are correct. Ensure that a valid MPI address is assigned and that it is not assigned twice in the configuration. Individually configured addresses can be determined by checking the hardware configuration of the SIMATIC STEP 7 project. As MPI address 30 is typically not used it can be assigned toecholink S7-compact.
Ethernet interface
X122
X101
Description
This interface is used for connecting a programming or remote maintenance device (PG interface) and is recommended for the echolink S7-compact. It requires its own 24 V power supply, since the connector X122 does not provide any voltage.
If a connector is connected echolink S7-compact can be plugged on top or in between.
It is used for connecting the control panel/operating panel (control panel interface) and is not recommended for communication via echolink S7-compact .

Description
Address for reaching echolink S7-compact.
The IP address is freely selectable (e.g. 192.168.214.XXX), but has to be located in the same network as the MACHINE network of dataFEED edgeConnector 840D.
The transmission speed has to be set to 187.5 kBit/s.

Own NC data points
If you do not enter any NC data point, the edgePlug SINUMERIK CNC app will automatically provide a default-set of NC data points. But if at least one user defined data point is configured, then the default-set of NC data points is disabled.
To use none-default NC data points, an .awl file needs to be created with the desired data points.
The .awl
file is created by the Siemens NC-VAR-Selektor software, which is part of SINUMERIK
Toolbox (6FC5851-1XC45-4YA8). The content of a generated .awl
