Integration with PLC, Weigh Bridge, Attendance Machine & Spectrometer

Dear Friends,
Can anyone help me with any knowledge on how to integrate
1) PLC
2) Weigh-Bridge
3) Attendance Machine
4) Spectrometer
with SAP System?
I have never done any integration...and looking for help.
Points assured if helpful.

Rohan Das

Dear Rohan,
You need to go through the SAP xApp Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP xMII) technology, which offers a sophisticated yet easy-to-use application for aggregating, transforming, and distributing plant and production information.
Do go through some OPC (Object for Process Control) documents also.You can visit the link below to get a feel of it.

Issue in workbench integration with Dev studio on unix machine

Hi,
I am trying to integrate my workbench on unix machine with dev studio on windows machine. To do so, I did the following:
1. created a new application in dev studio
2. In dev studio - Tools - Workbench settings I gave the host and port of my unix workbench. It was able to connect properly.
3. Then through Tools - Workbench - Set Instance Configuration, I sent these configurations of my application on dev studio to that of workbench(which I had selected earlier in step #2)
4. Then in my unix machine, I replaced the wine data with my new data feed
5. Ran initialize services, load baseline update and baseline update scripts.
5. My baseline update script Failed at Forge with the following error:
FATAL     03/07/13 12:21:30.718 UTC (1362658890718)
+FORGE     {config}: Could not open "/app/ENDECA/endeca/endeca/apps/Test/data/processing/wine_data.txt.gz": No such file or directory     +
+ERROR     03/07/13 12:21:30.719 UTC (1362658890719)     FORGE     {config}: Forge failed with 1 error and 0 warnings.+
I am not able to figure out why it is still looking for wine data. Any suggestions on this are highly welcome!
Thanks,
Vineet

Vineet,
Using a text editor, search for "wine.data.txt.gz" in your ./Test/config/pipeline/pipeline.epx. If you find it, note the record adapter's name trying to read it and then remove it in DEV Studio and reupload your pipeline project. If you don't find it, check the same file in the ./Test/data/processing/pipeline.epx directory. If you find it there, you may have an issue with your baseline update script as defined in your ./Test/config/script/AppConfig.xml file. Make sure that your Forge.getConfig(); command is successfully copying contents from the ./Test/config/pipeline directory to the ./Test/data/processing directory (you may want to clear out the processing directory before your next run to make sure of it).

Hi Folks,
    There is XMI technology available that can be potentially leveraged for this type of requirements in integrating any electronic gadgets talking to SAP ....
I think SAP XMI will be vry useful for this.
XMI is having ability to capture real time data from other system and update accordingly.
It has have connectors which will capture values from other system and pull in SAP.

ERP-Scale from Pocket Programs provides a standardized u201Cplug & playu201D interface for weighing equipment. It is SAP Certified and can be used for integration of weigh-scales with the SAP Packing Station transaction (HUPAST) or with custom ABAP developments. Major international companies are already gaining benefit by implementing ERP-Scale in their plants worldwide.

Re: Custom development for UDS
What have to say folks about the possibilities with the above ? But shouldnt SAP have some standard FM / RFC / BAPI owefully facilitating the same???
But the available FM HU_GET_RFC_DATA doesnt have any documentations attached to it ?

We want to read data from weigh bridge and display in oracle forms & store

Sir/Madam,
in our organisation we had one requirement. i.e is reading data from weigh bridge using serial port, displying that data in oracle forms and when ever user click save button we store that into my oracle database. we are using oracle 8i and forms 6i and windows OS environment. we don't know reading data from serial port and placing that into form items. please help me as early as possible if there is any property available in d2k regarding this requirement .
thank you,
vishnu

There's no property in Forms that makes you read serial ports, but as far as I know you need to know the API of the machine which you want to read data from (it should come with machine's manual) and then it will be easy to store it in forms item.

Reading Weight from Weigh Bridge....

Hi.
The scenario here is that we have to create module pool for picking up
the weights of trucks from weigh bridge ( AVERY brand ).
The existing system is in foxpro . Please find attached the text of AVERY guidance which exhaustively shows how the fox system is reading the
weight from the port, to which the weigh bridge is attached, on the
system kept at the location.
I wish to have the info regarding how, this functionality can be
achieved in ABAP as my perception is that this is not a simple
execution / run of an external program.
regards,
Suman
TEXT
getwt.prg
sample weight recieving program for Avery CTH
this is demo program for getting weight from the CTH
using the CALL and LOAD commands of dBASE III PLUS only.
This demo program demonstrates the use of LOAD and CALL commands
of dBASE III PLUS to get the weight from the CTH. The actual
program to get the weight is a file called GETCTH.BIN
To use GETCTH.BIN directly do the following:
   1. Start dBASE III PLUS normally.
   2. Type the command - LOAD GETCTH at the dot prompt of dBASE III PLUS.
      (Be sure to give the correct drive and/or directory where the
       file GETCTH.BIN resides in your computer system).
   3. The program GETCTH.BIN will return the weight in a variable
      passed from dBASE III PLUS, so first initialize a variable in
      dBASE III PLUS to recieve the weight.
      The weight string returned by the CTH is 26 charecters long so
      define a variable of length 26 by typing the following command
      at the dot prompt:
      WEIGHT = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"   { Any dummy value }
                            or
      WEIGHT = "2BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"   for COM2 port
      ( Note -> The choice for the name of the above variable is
                purely arbitrary. Any name could have been chosen)
   4. Next type the following command at the dot prompt to call the
      GETCTH function :
      CALL GETCTH WITH WEIGHT
   5. After some time the dot prompt will return. At the dot prompt
      type the following :
      ? WEIGHT
      If the GETCTH function has been successfull in getting the weight
      from the CTH then this function will return the weight as a string
      of 26 charecters containing the weight and other information.
      Otherwise, if the function is not successfull then the value of
      the variable passed will be set to 26 spaces. The major reason
      for the failure of the function will be a timeout error i.e.
      the CTH did not respond after a preset time interval had elasped.
      The returning of 26 spaces makes it easy for a dBASE III PLUS
      program to retry the weighing operation if failure is detected.
      The use of this in a loop till the function succeeds in getting
      a weight is illustrated below in the program.
      The weight returned by the CTH consists of a string of 26 charecters
      A sample weight that could be returned is reproduced below:
      ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
        19600 kg    G 000016 O
      The following is the sequence of charecters :
      1. The first two charecters ( positions A - B above ) are
         space charecters.
      2. The next five charecters ( positions C - G above ) is the
         weight from the CTH - ( 19600 in this case).
      3. The next charecter ( position H above ) is a space charecter.
      4. The next two charecters ( positions I - J above ) are the weight
         units - ( kg in this case ).
      5. The next four charecters ( positions K - N above ) are space
         space charecters.
      6. The next charecter ( position O above ) specifies mode of
         operation. It shows 'G' for Gross mode and 'T' for Tare
         mode of operation.
      7. The next charecter ( position P above ) is a space charecter.
      8. The next six charecters ( positions Q - V above ) is the
         consecutive number which is unique for each weighing.
      9. The next charecter ( position W above ) is a space charecter.
     10. The next charecter ( position X above ) is the machine ID number.
     11. The last two charecters ( positions Y - Z above ) are
         Carriage return and Line feed charecters.

As explained above the last two charecters of the weight string
are the Carriage return (CR) and the Line feed (LF) charecters
out of the total of 26 charecters of the weight string. So to get
the whole weight string other than these last two chareceters we
can use the SUBSTR command of dBASE III PLUS as follows :-
@ 14,20 say "The weight is : " + substr(weight,1,24)
This will show the whole weight string on the screen i.e. all
24 charecters ( it will not show the CR and the LF charecters ).
The CR and the LF charecters are as it is unprintable charecters
and will show up as control charecters if printed on the screen.
If the whole weight string is not required and only, say, the
weight and the weight units are required, then the following command
could be used :-
@ 14,20 say "The weight is : " + substr(weight,1,10)
This will show the weight value and the weight units (this substring
will include the embedded space charecters in this susbtring).
Similarly, other parameters from the weight string could be
incorporated, if required, from the whole string to enhance
the weighing process on the computer.
The idea of putting the CALL statement above in a loop is that
sometimes due to unavoidable reasons, there may some garbage
charecters on the serial port. Thus it may be necessary to flush these
charecters from the port by CALLing the function again.
Sometimes, the function may return without a timeout error but the
variable may contain some control charecters which do not make sense.
In this case the function should called repeatedly till the proper
charecters are returned. This occurs due to the reason explained
above.

Seimens HMI Integration with SAP MII

Dear MII Experts,
We are trying to integrate shop floor systems with SAP MII for discrete manufacturing industry.
I came across the client has 70+ machines in the plant .the vendor is "DMG"
Seimens HMI is installed on each machine .
What are the possible ways here to connect to PLC from MII
I am very new to this integration part .
Can MII directly connect to Seimens HMI .
I am very new to this area , client is ready to pay extra cost for any extra interfaces .
Please suggest me the architecture to follow .
Please give me a detailed explanation here , please correct me if I my explanation is wrong here
Please reply me for any other clarification

Hi Eswaraiah,
To access the PLC data in MII, you would need couple of things more.
1. OPC Server where the PLC stores the data.
2. PCo (SAP Plant Connectivity) that can read the data from OPC Server and send the data to MII for manipulation.
From PCo MII can read the data and you can then perform your business logic. Also, PCo has built-in notification settings which can trigger MII's transactions based upon some conditions.
So I believe, your landscape would look like
Siemens HMI --> OPC Server -> PCo --> MII
Check these out...

Weigh Bridge Interface

Dear ABAPers,
I am in Cement Implementation Project and they asked for an interface between ERP and Weigh Bridge in SD cycle .
Kindly could anyone tell me how can i start with this task? or can anyone provide methodology for performing this interface?
Thanks

Do you have a process controlling the gate, identifying the truck, and collection two weigh-tickets empty/loaded from teh weighbridge?
If so we have an integrated solution to collect all relevant documents (weigh tickets, delivery sheet, truck identification, even photo), outside SAP, and when all is complete send it as one object on-line to the SAP screen for entry validation. This way you get two important benefits: No SAP load for programming and server load, robustness.
Have a look at [SIP Ltd > solutions ISEC|http://www.sip.com.gr:8081/triboni/exec/x/gr.sip.site.display/xsl/display/displayChapter/solutions/displaySubChapter/ISEC/page/chapter.html] the Integrated Services ERP Connector does this exactly. Its a separate server communication directly with SAP. This way the whole process of weighing and making the invoice is off line, easy parametrizable, and on-line with the SD.
Hope this info helped

You could write a dll (on windows) or shared library (on unix) wrappering

This method then instantiates our main application window (Control)
and
invokes the Display() method using start task.
2. All other forms created by the application are created using a form
manager service object which exists on the client partition. The form
manager has a CreateForm() method which instantiates a form class of
the
specified type and invoked the form's Display() method using start
task.
3. Each form has a Close push button which when clicked invokes
Window.RequestFinalize().
Now, the problem we have is this:
The user starts the application and the main application window is
displayed. The user then selects an option from the main window and a
child form is created using the form manager service object and is
displayed. The user can continue to create more child forms by
selecting
options from the main window and all child forms are instantiated and
displayed correctly.
However, when the user attempts to close one of the forms the form
does
not close. The finalize event is triggered and the event loop is
exited,
but the form continues to be displayed and does not close. If the user
then moves the mouse pointer over the main application window, the
child
form immediately closes. Moving the mouse cursor over other child
windows (or even the desktop) does NOT do this - only when the mouse
cursor is moved over the main window does the child form close.
Does anyone have any ideas on this?

Jace.

Subject: RE: Forms That Will Not Close
Hi Pascal,
The Display() method is as follows:
self.Open();
event loop
when Window.AfterFinalize do
exit;
when task.Shutdown do
exit;
end event;
self.Close();
<end>
Are you saying we should do a Window.Close() in there somewhere as well
Regards,
Jace.

Exiting the event loop will not close the window!
Invoking
'Close' method on the window will. Check if this method
is executed. It appears, the AfterFinalize event exits
the
event loop and nothing more. Then, your applications
waits for some event from your main window, like 'Mouse-
Enter', before invoking Window.Close().

Subject: RE: Forms That Will Not Close
Jason,
No, self.Close() should close the window. This is the
method I referred to. You could place a traceline
behind self.Close() to see if it is executed. It is not
inconcievable some exception may exit the Display()
method before self.Close() is executed.
After that, maybe, some events from your main
window trigger something that causes a call like 'My-
Window.Close()', where 'MyWindow' is a subclass of
'UserWindow', so 'MyWindow' gets closed after all.
Maybe you've overridden 'Close()', so now it doesn't
work properly anymore.
Are you sure you exit the event loop after you press
the close button?? The display method is not regis-
terred for any <PushButton>.Click event, though maybe
you just didn't include the full Display method in your
mail.
Remember that an event loop will only respond to an
event if it is not currently handling an event. So, the
method behind <PushButton>.Click may call a self.
Window.RequestFinalize(), which will cause an After-
Finalize event to be posted, which will be placed in
the event queue. If this method however keeps waiting
for something, the event loop will not respond to the
AfterFinalize event, until this method is done waiting.
Pascal.
Hi Pascal,

I'm hoping that someone out there has experienced the following (and

I have a couple of windows on which the AfterValueChange event is

We all know that this should only happen upon leaving the field, ie. th=e

Any ideas as to why this could be happening?

I need direction to the source of Forte libs that handle more scientific
math. Also included is the need for more scientific print formating. I
understand, second hand, that such material is available from third

Thanks

Greg,
This is a bit of a long shot, but has anyone experience with integrating
Forte with PI/Open. PI/Open is a variant of PICK. We have a requirement
to read and update a PI/Open database from within our Forte application,
and we would be most interested to hear from anyone who has experience in
doing this.
We are aware of a set of APIs provided with PI/Open that are written in
"C". We could wrapper these from within Forte, however the issue is that
the APIs provided are non-shared, and Forte requires shared libraries.Would be interersting, which operating system you're using.
You could write a dll (on windows) or shared library (on unix) wrappering the
original,statically linked "C"-Libs. This lib could be used by Forte.

Excel integration with Entry and Approval for SSM not working

Iu2019m having trouble getting excel integrated with E&A for being able to enter large number of historic data points into a cube-built model u2013 Iu2019ve gone through all the docs several times and there is no good concrete explanation on how to do this. I keep getting the following error message:
Error opening Excel Automation server can't create object. This can be caused by:
1. - The application is not installed on your machine
2. - The browser security does not support ActiveX scripts.
3. - Your were prompted to run ActiveX and you said No, if that is the cause close all browser instances and reopen.
However, I've done the following:
-          Iu2019ve installed the excel add-in on both the server and my local machine, and Iu2019ve enabled the add-in part in Excel on my local machine.
-          The browser security is definitely set to accept all active X scripts
-          I am never prompted to run activeX when I select u201CHistorical Datau201D within entry/approval. I just get the above error message.
-          Iu2019ve flushed cache and restarted listener several times.
What am I missing? I donu2019t see it in any of the docs.
Thanks!

Robb,
Looking at what you've done, there doesn't seem to be an obvious answer. The best suggestion I can make is to fill out a support ticket on this. There must be other factors at work here that will require a deeper look.

Unity Connection Integration with CS 1000 and Meridian 81 - PIMG

I have a customer who have (2) Nortel Meridian 81 and (1) CS1000 for their 3 locations along with Octal 350 servicing 2500 voicemail users today. Customer also has a Cisco UCM in their network today which is servicing their wireless phone users.
UCM and CS1000 are networked together using Q.Sig trunks today. Customer is looking at replacing their Octal solution with a new Voice mail solution.
I was looking at integration documents for Unity Connection using PIMG.
In this scenario, would I need 3 separate PIMG 's at the three remote sites and integrate it with Unity connection or Can I achieve this using just one PIMG at one of the sites, considering the three sites are trunked together using tie-trunks.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/7x/integration/pimg/guide/cucintpimg090.html#wp1051831
Appreciate any pointers/ help.

Hi there,
Just to add a note to the great tips from Hailey (+5 Hailey!)
We are in the final stages of replacing our "old" Octel with Unity Connection, part of
which is integrated to our CS1000 and CUCM in a "Hybrid" deployment like yours
Centralized Voice Messaging
Cisco Unity Connection supports centralized voice messaging through the phone system, which supports
various inter-phone system networking protocols including proprietary protocols such as Avaya DCS,
Nortel MCDN, or Siemens CorNet, and standards-based protocols such as QSIG or DPNSS. Note that
centralized voice messaging is a function of the phone system and its inter-phone system networking,
not voice mail. Connection will support centralized voice messaging as long as the phone system and its
inter-phone system networking are properly configured.

Centralized voice messaging provides voice messaging services to all users in a networked phone system environment. Connection can be hosted on a message center PINX and provide voice messaging services to all users in an enterprise assuming the message center PINX and all user PINX phone systems are properly networked.For a centralized voice messaging configuration to exist, a suitable inter-phone system networking protocol must exist to deliver a minimum level of feature support, such as:•Message waiting indication (MWI).•Transfer, which ensures that the correct calling/called party ID is delivered to the voice messaging system.•Divert, which ensures that the correct calling/called party ID is delivered to the voice messaging system.Other features may be required depending on how the voice messaging system is to be used. For example, if it is also serving as an automated attendant, path-replacement is needed as this feature prevents calls from hair-pinning.
