        More efficient with SIMOTION IT

        SIMOTION IT uses the integrated Web server of the SIMOTION motion control system to make the commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance of production plants even more convenient, intuitive, and time-saving. All you need is a PC with a standard Web browser.
        Siemens SIMOTION IT - serial commissioning without engineering

        Function package for any SIMOTION controller

        SIMOTION IT is a comprehensive function package available onboard each SIMOTION controller that enables easier commissioning without a long training period or specialized knowledge. The option of integrating user-defined Web applications means that you can easily commission complex automation solutions or perform maintenance tasks.

        Typical fields of application

        On-site diagnostics

        All you need is a PC with a Web browser and an Ethernet cable to use a variety of diagnostics options such as alarms and messages, individual variable tables, and trace functions. You can also archive all the diagnostic data for a machine.

        Remote maintenance

        Machine manufacturers can use the Web browser to load software updates for their machines. All it takes is an appropriately secure IT infrastructure.

        Commissioning

        SIMOTION IT offers you the option of integrating Web pages tailored to your own applications as needed – ideal for series machine commissioning.

        Virtual Machine

        The integrated runtime environment for the parallel execution of individual Java applications.

        SIMOTION IT offers a wide range of access options to the process data of the machine

        SIMOTION IT consists of three components


        SIMOTION HTML pages

        The integrated standard pages support fast commissioning and diagnostics. Users can also create user-defined Web sites.

        SIMOTION OPC XML-DA

        An http-based communication mechanism that allows symbolic read/write access to controller variables.

        SIMOTION Virtual Machine

        Runtime environment for Java programs that allows the parallel execution of individual Java applications – the ideal supplement to the standard SIMOTION runtime automation program.

        The easy way to greater availability

        Fast

        The efficient Web-based solution for the fast diagnosis of your plant via standard IT protocols such as http, with no extra engineering tools.

        Independent

        You increase the availability of your machines through individual maintenance activities at any time, from any location.

        Flexible

        Optimize your production processes with individual JAVA applications in the integrated Virtual Machine. 

        Secure

        Multi-stage security mechanisms, such as an encrypted https connection and a role-based authorization model, guarantee the security of your process data.

        OPC UA for SIMOTION

        Ready for Industrie 4.0 – thanks to comprehensive networking between all systems, platforms, and manufacturers

        Thanks to the standardized, open OPC UA protocol, SIMOTION enables consistent, secure data exchange in heterogeneous production systems throughout all automation levels, including cloud applications.

        Unlimited communication

        A growing number of automation components and software solutions are able to access SIMOTION data and variables easily and securely using OPC UA client functions.

        OPC UA thus enables efficient data exchange: “vertically” with HMI, SCADA, MES, and ERP systems from different manufacturers, including cloud-based applications, and “horizontally” with other controllers.

        <b>OPC UA – the open interface: </b> <br>For consistent communication in heterogeneous production environments

        OPC UA – consistent communication on all levels

        With the combination of SIMOTION and an OPC UA server, you create the basis for the digitalization of your processes on the way to Industrie 4.0.

        OPC UA is the perfect complement to deterministic PROFINET communication for real-time applications. Both protocols can be used on one cable with no restrictions or performance loss.

        Security functions such as password protection, authentication, authorization, and up to 256-bit encryption ensure a high security standard in the communication between automation systems.

        Fast diagnostics via the Web

        Optimize plant availability – from any location, at any time

        With SIMOTION IT and OPC UA, you easily ensure the reliable operation of your plant via a Web browser, with comprehensive options for using the process data for convenient commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance.
