Beckhoff CP6606 communication

179 Views Asked by At

I have a client who wants to connect a CP6606 to a SCADA-server on a BACnet/IP network.
In short, this CP6606 is controlling an automatic waste collecting system, and now the customer wants to have all alarms and so on sent up to this SCADA-system which acts as a central operation unit.

Do we need a gateway, or can this be done from TwinCAT?
How to proceed?

Not sure I can help much, but I know that we can a vendor using TwinCAT via a Beckhoff PLC, and they seemed to need to write their own BACnet gateway (- but I'd probably recommend one that is already available & tested - be it one that might be provided via TwinCAT, or a piece of hardware that can already do it for you - if TwinCAT doesn't provided such an offering).
