  Over the past years, SOLEIL* uses SIEMENS PLCs** as a standard for signal monitoring and security. SOLEIL is today thinking about a major upgrade of the facilities, and has to adapt its organization to face efficient operation and R&D. In this context, automation experts are now merged in a single group. In a middle term, migration from the existing 3XX series PLCs to the new 15XX series will be necessary. As the new 15XX series PLCs do not support Fetch/Write protocol anymore, a first step is the upgrade of TANGO*** PLCServer. This software device ensures data exchange with supervisory applications using TANGO infrastructure. It opens multiple TCP/IP connections to the PLC hardware, manages asynchronous communication to read/write PLC Datablocks and acts as a server for other clients. The upgrade of PLCServer is based on Snap7**** open source Ethernet communication suite for interfacing with Siemens PLCs using the S7 native protocol. This paper details the evolutions, performances and limitations of this new version of the PLCServer.

TANGO Workshop  
 
  • A. Buteau
    SOLEIL, Gif-sur-Yvette, France
 
  This workshop will give a general overview of the TANGO control system framework and its different aspects including latest developments. The following general topics will be covered: - General overview of Tango concepts - Latest developments - New features in tools - PyTango and ITango-RestApi & Cloud. The TANGO virtual machine will be used to demonstrate the following: - Designing a simple TANGO device server, developing the code, debugging and deploying it - Configuring properties, attribute properties, events, polling, archiving - Accessing it from generic clients. ATK, JDraw, Taurus, ITango, RestApi Finally there will be a session dedicated to installing TANGO on your own laptop or computer.
