7.16 Command interface
The product supports control via RS232, CAN-Bus, TCP/IP, UDP/IP,
PROFIBUS, PROFINET (optional) and Modbus/TCP (optional).
For TCP/IP and UDP a text-based communications protocol (GCL –
Gripper Com-mand Language) can be used, which is specified in
the document "GCL Reference Manual".
The interfaces RS232 and CAN-Bus support a binary
communications protocol, which is described in detail in the
document "WSG Command Set Reference Manual". This binary
protocol can also be used over TCP/IP and UDP. For the control via
the fieldbuses PROFIBUS, PROFINET and Modbus/TCP a DPv0
compatible I/O register space is supplied with which the product
can be controlled by setting discrete input values and reading the
product’s current output parameters. For further information,
please refer to the “WSG Fieldbus Interface Manual”.
The command interface is selected and configured via the
product's web interface, via the menu option Settings -> Command
Interface.
7.17 Scripting
The product includes an integrated interpreter for the Lua
programming language, via which you can adapt the product's
software to your application. The programs (scripts) are saved on
the integrated memory card and can be run automatically when
the product starts. The interpreter is configured via the web
interface. You will find the reference information for the
commands as well as notes about creating and using scripts in the
document "WSG Scripting Reference Manual".
7.18 Resetting the configuration
Via the "Settings → System" page, the producte's configuration
can be reset to its state on delivery. Should the configuration
interface no longer be accessible, for example if the network
configuration is faulty or if you have forgotten your password, you
can restore the state on delivery by renaming the file "config
\system.cfg" to "config\system.old".
NOTICE
Manually editing the configuration file can lead to unwanted
behavior.
