XML basic settings
You can enable/disable the XML communication via the XML interface of the communications
module in the "XML basic settings" area. In addition, you can define which events are sent to
the controller via all XML channels and via which XML channels the communication to the
interfaces is transmitted.

Description of the XML basic parameters
Description
When the check box is selected, parallel diagnostic access via the XML channel
can be enabled in addition to an existing connection, e.g. to a controller (PLC).
In the case of parallel access, note that the XML application only has read
access to the communication module. If access to the communications module
already takes place from another application at the same time, this option
cannot be selected.
If the function is disabled, access to the communications module can only take
place over a communication channel. If a connection is already established
over a communication channel, an additional connection attempt from
another communication channel is rejected.
If the check box is selected, each frame (XML report) received from the user
application of the communication module is confirmed with a response frame.
If no response frame is received by the communication module within 10
seconds, it sends the report to the application again. Reports that are not
transferred are buffered on the communication module.
With this function, you can make sure that no frames from the communication
module are lost even if the connection is unstable (e.g. WLAN connection
aborts occasionally). This function also allows batch operation of the
communication module when there is a connection to the user application at
certain times. The communication module collects the frames; these can be
called up using a PC application, if necessary.
If the check box is selected, a tag event frame with the data selected in the
"Tag events / tag commands" area is generated each time a transponder is
reliably detected.
If the check box is selected, information about all events (edge transitions) of
the digital inputs/outputs is reported.
interfaces.
• Standard: Complete XML communication for all connected devices runs
over an XML channel.
• Channel per interface: XML communication of the connected devices runs
over the associated XML channel in each case.
• User-defined: No default setting. XML communication can be set as desired.
Using the input boxes, you can enable/disable the respective XML channels and
define the Ethernet ports of the respective XML channels.
