3.3.4 PLC control and result storage via WLAN
The Nexo cordless Wi-Fi nutrunner uses the Rexroth Open Protocol for WLAN communication (control).
In addition, results (except graph data) can be transmitted using Rexroth Open Protocol. The PLC has to
contain function blocks that provide for communication via Rexroth Open Protocol.
Furthermore, the results data can be transmitted in the “standard Nexo” format as a *.json file via WLAN
from the Nexo cordless Wi-Fi nutrunner to an FTP server of the IPC or database server.
As of Nexo firmware version 1200, a HTTP or File Share server can be used for transmission of the results
data. The data may be transmitted via WLAN using one or several external
access points (see figure 3–10).
Settings in the NEXO-OS operating system:
• To configure the access point, go to Settings WLAN (page 230).
• As of Nexo firmware version 1200: To configure the connection (FTP, HTTP or File Share) for results
output, go to Settings Data Standard Nexo (page 209).
In this menu, the parameters for results output can also be configured.
• To set the Rexroth Open Protocol, go to Settings Data Open Protocol (page 217).
