Overview
TCP/IP, as a standard network communication protocol, provides reliable connection and data transmission capabilities, enabling industrial devices to achieve interconnection, data sharing, and remote monitoring.
Overall Architecture
Download the built client project to iComputer for operation. Then, enable data interaction between the background TCP/IP Client in the iComputer and third-party devices via TCP/IP Server.
Establish connection with third-party TCP/IP server to send and receive data for communication. When communication is not needed for an extended period, close the established connection.
The TCPIPClient product consists of two components.
| Product components | Description |
| sf4200_0.0.5_amd64. deb | TCPIP RTE component |
| CmpTcpIp. library | The library file used by the host computer program |
Installation Process
Installation Requirements
- The iComputer manufactured by SINSEGYE.
- The iComputer has access to the Internet.
- Familiar with basic Linux operation commands.
The TCPIP Client product consists of two components. Therefore, to use TCPIP Client, you need to install these two components firstly. Details are shown as follows:
Install TCPIP RTE Component on iComputer
Upload the deb package to the /home/sinsegye directory in the Linux environment of iComputer.
Then, execute the command on iComputer to install deb package (refer to the screenshot below. If the module file name changes, make corresponding changes to the file name in the command line).
Modify the configuration file of RTE and add "SF4200" under ComponentManger module.
Restart RTE service to call SF4200.
Deploy the library of TCPIP Server on IDE side
In MetaFacture, click “Tools" -- "Library Storage" in the menu bar on the top;
In the dialog box, click "Install", then select "CmpTcpIp.library", and finally click "Open".
In the project, double click "Library Manager" -- "Add Library" -- double click "Sinsegye Tcp/IP" to load the library.
