Proficy Machine Edition tutorial GE PLC how to link data between PLC"A" with PLC"B" using EGD Part-1

[@alisson934]

Thank you very much

[@generaltechnologyknowledge5165]

ok sir, I will share what I have

[@MM-de3fg]

@@generaltechnologyknowledge5165 I would also like to know how the Kepware Server connects to GE CPU using the GE EGD Driver.

​@@generaltechnologyknowledge5165 Hello! Can you please tell me where can I find the installer for machine edition v9 or v9.5?

You are welcome!

@General Technology Knowledge, ho can i back up and download the parameter or data in HMI GE quickpanel view? please explain me, thanks

[@davidsinyinza569]

in case one cpu is fault and you want replace with new one can u download in it?

[@generaltechnologyknowledge5165]

Yes sir, That it. you are right

[@Alain0775]

Thank you explaining how EGD is configured. By the way, are you using an emulator to download or a physicall PLC?

[@generaltechnologyknowledge5165]

I used real PLCs Thanks!

[@samuelyork169]

What memory types do you store the consumed and produced tags? When you store them it goes to symbolic immediately, but for me it will only work with certain types of memory. Also why is the boolean being stored in length 8? Great video, thanks

[@generaltechnologyknowledge5165]

Dear sir, For memory we can store any types that we would such as Boolean, Int, Real, Word, Symbolic...and for memory we can store any length arrays. Thanks

ETM001 sometimes needs rebooting but can’t figure out why. We are using latest firmware 6.43

[@generaltechnologyknowledge5165]

Dear sir, If we download and write to flash no need to reboot. Thanks

[@mmaranta785]

@@generaltechnologyknowledge5165 I’m not talking about loading firmware, Im talking about the ETM001 losing it’s IP address due to memory leak or something and having to power cycle the rack to restore it.

[@andrelpn]

Did ou have a video with multicast EGD example?

[@generaltechnologyknowledge5165]

Dear sir, Please provide me the concept maybe I can do it both unicast and multicast of EGD. Thanks you

[@andrelpn]

@@generaltechnologyknowledge5165 egd multicast provides data for an entire subnet, not just for a single ip, as is the case with unicast. you set up a data provider only once. I would like to see comk set up correctly. TKS Nagahiro

@@andrelpn Dear sir, That ok Thanks

[@alisson934]

I need help if someone could answer me, i am trying to connect Kepware or IGS by GE, using drive GE EGD , but i can't make work, i follow the manual but unsuccessfully.

[@MM-de3fg]

Were you able to make that connection? Kepware Server using GE EGD Driver?

[@MM-de3fg]

I am trying to establish a connection too, but still not able to

[@alisson934]

I have IGS but sometimes i use kepware in free Mode for Better response and diagnostic

[@BirdWings360]

Good PME topic, however, EDGs don't work nicely in the field or on the plant floor.

[@generaltechnologyknowledge5165]

Dear sir, It work correctly for all plant. Thanks

[@prashkd7684]

We've used EGD at several plants.. most reliable, easy to commission protocol in my opinion.

[@kudrot1]

EGD Unicast, Multicast are very popular or widely used in Large Industry specially 50 to 100 ASC cranes working in the same network, Steel Mill etc..
