FT Optix: Can I create a Design-time Netlogic to add a comm driver

Posted By Johnson Nov 11, 2025 10:20:00 AM
Found In Egroup: Advanced Software \ view thread
I am wondering if it is possible to create a design-time NetLogic to automate creating a connection to a PLC. Specifically an Ethernet/IP Station. For example I would have a screen that has items on the screen like a list to select Comm Driver, then a text box for entering the station name, IP address, ...

I have 6 stations, each will have a TV that is connected to my plant network via Wifi, my PLC is also on the plant network connected via EN2T. The optix panel LAN port is connected ...

That won't work for me as every station will be displaying different content that pertains to the work instructions for that station. I did however get it to work in the Optix Panel by using the Hostname in place of the IP address in my URL. teknopanel:8443/windows/Station15 Not sure why this works ...

Adam, I don't think that is the case, My Optix panel comes with an entitlement of 11 tokens. When I deploy the application to the Optix Panel it displays a LicenseManager Info message saying I am using 9 tokens (7 for WebEngine, 1 for native presentation engine, and 1 for ODBC database) ...

Adam, Thank you, good to know. For my application the point of displaying the Web pages on the TV is just for operator instructions and a few status indicators (i.e torque tool Ready, Complete, Error) There is no need for the operator to touch the screen at this time, once all operations are ...

If you have some sample code that I could use as a starting point, that would be appreciated. NetLogic code gets very complicated quickly when you are obtaining a value from one screen to update a UI element on a different screen (in my case a dialog box). Also where does the NetLogic need to reside? ...
