The simple routefrom datarecording tothe dashboard4The Beckhoff principle is simplicity in itself:Beckhoff makes the route from data recordingin the field to communication and historicisationthrough to data analysis in the framework of auser-specific HMI concept a comparatively simpleone. IoT and data analytics scenarios can beintegrated directly into existing tool landscapesand existing IT infrastructures. Sensors integrateddirectly with the control system are used to recorddata. Available fieldbuses can be used for communication, with standard protocols being usedto exchange data with the cloud. Such simplicitypays off: costs, effort and training periods arereduced significantly.Data loggingCommunicationA number of different fieldbus systems can be used to record a machine’s sensor data, with use of existing cabling and different topologiespossible on the basis of EtherCAT.The recorded sensor data can becommunicated onward on the basisof communication standards, whichcan be integrated simply and securely into existing IT infrastructures.
Data historicisationAnalysisThe entire communication datacan be stored in a long-term archive.Thus, even subsequent analyses arepossible.The user views data and configureshis analyses in the TwinCAT Engineering. From this configuration, completed PLC code can be generated.5
The simple andsecure route tothe cloudFrom IBM Watson to Amazon Web Services andMicrosoft Azure through to Google IoT: userscan choose their cloud service provider freely ina Beckhoff control architecture. The connectionitself is uncomplicated regardless of the underlyingscenario and also secure thanks to popular standard encryption. Machine and production data isforwarded to the cloud via the Beckhoff controllerand TwinCAT IoT in the case of new systems, whilethe IPC from Beckhoff is used as an IoT Edge devicein retrofit concepts. Third-party systems can also beconnected in a similar manner.

IoT in use:24/7 energymanagementTwinCAT IoT was used in this application to realize a cloud-based energy management solutionin the framework of a university environment. Astudent residence with 160 accommodation unitswas equipped with automation technology for recording energy consumption. The recorded energydata was transmitted to the cloud from a centralgateway PC via a secure transport channel, whereit was recorded, further analyzed using a rangeof services and made available again to differentuser groups. Among other aspects, students wereto be given access to their own energy consumption values so they could develop efficient analysisalgorithms in context with final projects.Gaining access to the energy data was also ofinterest for the facility management, however, forthe purpose of managing and monitoring energyconsumption. By using the corresponding cloudservices on Microsoft Azure such management ofaccess to the data was successfully realized.used servicesmachine learningalarmingpower BIdata storageAMQPAMQPaccess authorizationTwinCAT IoTGateway IPCstudentsfacility managementresearch assistantssystem integratorOPC UA.accommodation units 1 to 16010
IoT in use:service ondemandTwinCAT IoT was used in this application torealize a cloud-based service-on-demand solution.Machine applications globally distributed amongvarious end users send maintenance-relatedstatus information (e.g. on fill levels of colorcartridges) to the cloud in order to secure accessto data stored there for machine builders andallow benefits to be derived for different departments. Agreement was reached in the frameworkof a new business model based on dedicatedmaintenance contracts with the end users that themachine builder not only sells the machine per se,rather also assumes responsibility for maintenance and replenishment of all (finite) productionAMQPresources required for operating the machineas part of the maintenance contract. Thanks tothe availability of all of the maintenance-relatedstatus information in the cloud the machinebuilder knows the fill levels of the correspondingresources precisely at all times and can send outa service technician on demand to perform thereplenishment – a task that needlessly had to beperformed cyclically in the past without knowingthe actual values.AMQPservice technicianend user 1support centeradministratordata scientistservice technicianend user 2TwinCAT IoTTwinCAT IoTTwinCAT IoTmachine 1machine 2machine 111
Analytics in use:new businessmodels with dataanalysisA machine builder would like to strengthen tiesfurther with its customers. To do this, the machine builder offers a machine monitoring andmaintenance service. TwinCAT Analytics is used toimplement the solution technically. The TwinCATAnalytics Logger had been configured on the machine computers in the field for this purpose. TheLogger records the process data from the machinein a precise, cyclical manner and sends it to a native MQTT message broker in a public cloud system.A data analysis was created for every machinetype with the Analytics Workbench. This is usedsimultaneously by the service engineers in order toperform spontaneous analyses of live and historicalTwinCAT Analyticsdata with the TwinCAT Analytics Service. The Workbench allows PLC code to be generated automatically from the implemented configuration, whichcan ensure continuous 24/7 data analysis withthe installed HMI on a server IPC like the C5240in a dedicated server room in a TwinCAT AnalyticsRuntime container. A ticket system informs the enduser in good time as regards potential maintenancework, and indicates which tasks the end user cancarry out or which require intervention by a servicetechnician on behalf of the machine builder.TwinCAT Analyticsservice technician (location-independent)machine builder (location-independent)dashboardMQTTMQTTpublic cloudMQTTTwinCAT Analyticsmachine control customer 112MQTTTwinCAT Analyticsmachine control customer 2MQTTTwinCAT Analyticsmachine control customer n
Analytics in use:local 24/7machinemonitoringTwinCAT Analytics was used in a local network inthis application to analyze an end user’s heterogeneous machine pool. The end user awarded thecontract for this application to a system integratorwith the aim of increasing machine availability.Existing machines should not be impacted ifpossible. This was done successfully with theTwinCAT IoT Data Agent, with existing TwinCATmachines being queried conveniently via ADS.Data was likewise successfully transmitted directlyin the case of third-party controllers via OPCUA. Additional sensors were integrated on somemachines with the aid of the EK9160 Bus Coupler.Coupler and Data Agent send the data cyclically toa native MQTT message broker, which is locatedon a C6930. The TwinCAT Analytics Runtime component runs on this additional IPC installed in theexisting network. The TwinCAT Analytics StorageProvider was used in conjunction with a MicrosoftSQL database for recording the history of thedata. The analysis itself was created by the systemintegrator with the TwinCAT Analytics Workbenchon the integrator’s own engineering systems. Theanalysis focused on monitoring the machine cycletimes, the life expectancy of mechanical and electronic components as well as a quality assessmentof produced goods.end userTwinCAT AnalyticsdashboardstorageTwinCAT AnalyticsStorage ProviderMQTTlocal LANMQTTMQTTTwinCAT AnalyticsRetrofitADSIoT DeviceEK9160 with additional sensorsfor machine analysisexisting machine withTwinCAT 2 controllerOPC UAexisting machine withthird-party controller13

IoT: productsand scenariosFrom a technical point of view, the Internet of Things(IoT) consists of a fast growing number of sensorsworldwide, which acquire and transmit data. The termIoT furthermore also refers to the rules and actionsthat are applied to this data with the purpose of optimizing technical systems. Here, cloud systems providethe technological foundation for the Internet of Thingsand serve as a single point of contact for the devicesto be connected. For all intents and purposes, a systemautomated with TwinCAT is able to transmit sensorand process data of new machine applications to thecloud via the TwinCAT IoT products, but also the dataof older and even of third-party vendor systems.new, modern machineAMQP,MQTT,HTTPS,OPC UACommunicationTwinCAT IoT Communicator Appmobile deviceTwinCAT IoT CommunicationBeckhoff controllerCX2000 Embedded PC with TwinCAT 3Data logging/machine16

IoT:all productsat a glanceTF6760 IoTHTTPS/RESTTF6720 IoTData AgentThe TwinCAT 3 TF6720 IoT Data Agent functionis used to establish bi-directional communicationservices secured via TLS with cloud-based communication services such as Microsoft Azure IoTHub or AWS IoT for instance. Services can also beconnected at the same time, which are based onthe MQTT communication standard. As a gatewayapplication, the Data Agent can operate eitherdirectly on the controller or on a gateway PC andis configured by means of a graphical editor, inwhich the communication connections can beparameterized and the data to be communicated can be selected. TwinCAT ADS can be usedas a communication protocol with the TwinCATruntime component. Alternatively, the IEC OPC-UAstandard is also available, which can likewisebe used to connect a third-party device to thecloud. The Data Agent supports different samplingmechanisms for reducing data traffic and theassociated costs, such as for example poll-basedaccess to the data, OnChange notifications or alsoa TriggerMode, in which certain variable valuescan be monitored and data selected by the usertransmitted to the cloud once a defined thresholdis reached.O www.beckhoff.com/TF6720Analogous to TF6701 (MQTT), the TwinCAT 3 Function TF6760 IoT HTTPS/REST provides users withbasic functions needed for sending and receivingdata via the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)in the form of a PLC library, which also supportsHTTP Secure (HTTPS) communication. Acting as anHTTP client, a control system can send requeststo a REST API and receive the correspondinganswers. In IoT communication, an HTTPS RESTAPI is frequently offered by web servers in orderto channel certain communication process into auniform and stateless interface. Example of usecases are the configuration of cloud services, theretrieval of weather data or the communicationwith messenger services.O www.beckhoff.com/TF6760TwinCAT IoT Data Agentgraphical configurator18
EK9160 IoT Bus CouplerThe EK9160 coupler connects the EtherCAT I/Os directly to the Internetof Things without a control program. It implements EtherCAT signalrepresentation based on the IoT MQTT communication protocol andthus enables bi-directional communication of the I/O data to publiccloud providers such as Microsoft Azure or Amazon Web Services. Allconfiguration settings are made in this regard on a user-friendly website integrated on the device and can therefore be implemented withoutknowledge of automation.O www.beckhoff.com/EK9160TF6701 IoTCommunicationTF673x IoTCommunicator AppTF6710 IoTFunctionsThe TwinCAT 3 TF6701 IoT Communicationfunction provides the user with basic functionsfor sending and receiving data via the MessageQueuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocolin the form of a PLC library. This allows the PLCprogrammer to send and receive MQTT messagesdirectly from/to the control system, thus enablingsimple data communication between different devices. MQTT is an open and standardized messageand broker-based communication protocol which,thanks to its small footprint, is becoming increasingly important in the area of fast and efficientdata transmission in small embedded systems inparticular. Many cloud providers offer access totheir services via this protocol, though there arealso message broker implementations that enableinstallation and operation of MQTT communication in a private cloud scenario.The TC3 IoT Communicator allows process datato be transmitted in a simple manner to any enddevice, state changes to be monitored and information to be communicated back to the machine.The TC3 IoT Communicator connects the TwinCATcontroller to a messaging service and enables simple setup within the TwinCAT development environment for sending and receiving push messagesand process data between the PLC and mobileoperating systems. Every terminal is registeredwith a unique ID. This allows messages to be sentspecifically to certain persons and/or controllers. Anindicator within the message defines whether messages and status values are cached and availableon demand in the messaging service. The TC3 IoTCommunicator is based on outgoing connections(publish/subscribe communication) and therefore needs no special firewall settings. It can beintegrated in a straightforward way into existingIT networks. Apps for receiving, transmitting anddisplaying these messages are available in the appstores for free download.TwinCAT 3 TF6710 IoT Functions allows communication connections to be established withcloud-based communication services. Various PLCfunction modules are available to the user in thiscontext in order to send process data simply fromthe TwinCAT runtime component to the respectivecloud service or to receive data from the service.TwinCAT IoT Functions uses the protocol andservice implementation of the TwinCAT IoT DataAgent (TF6720) in this context and can thus beregarded as the PLC variant of the Data Agent.O www.beckhoff.com/TF6701O www.beckhoff.com/TF6730O www.beckhoff.com/TF6735O www.beckhoff.com/TF6710Benefits of TwinCAT IoT: simple and secure connectionwith cloud systems based on standardizedcommunication protocols retrofit scenarios for older machineapplications possible products for the integration of third-partydevices into the cloud available smartphone app for mobile machineconnectivity availableBenefits of EK9160: simple and secureconnection with cloud systems easy web-based configuration easy configuration, no programmingskills required19
Analytics:productsand scenarios20How can you gain competitive advantages incommon IoT and Industrie 4.0 environments? Onthe one hand through better, more precise andsignificant data, but above all through fast, validdata analysis and appropriate rapid reaction.This explains why an increasing number of dataanalysis tools are finding their way onto the market. Yet for the most part these do not speak thelanguage of the machine builder and are limitedconceptually to a small few scenarios. TwinCATAnalytics, in contrast, has been developed specially for this sector. The new TwinCAT Analyticsengineering tools are integrated seamlessly intothe Microsoft Visual Studio environment that isalready familiar from the machine applications.This means considerable time savings for theanalysis application since no extensive trainingis needed. Moreover, many algorithms areavailable, which have been specially developedin a language that allows direct referenceto mechanical engineering and the relevantapplication. Interaction with familiar tools fromthe TwinCAT product world, such as the TwinCATScope charting tool, simplifies use of the newopportunities that TwinCAT Analytics offers.TwinCAT Analytics is not just limited in this senseto spontaneous troubleshooting on machines,rather allows permanent 24/7 monitoring of one
or more machines located in a network. The wayto 24/7 monitoring is very simple, since readablePLC code along with an HTML5-based analysisdashboard can be generated at the touch of abutton from an analysis created in the configuration tool. Once created, an analysis can runin parallel with the machine application eitheron an IPC or on a virtual machine in a cloudsystem as well as in TwinCAT Cloud Engineering.Two completely transparent projects are createdfor both the PLC and the HMI. For individualanalysis requirements, both projects can bemodified and extended by means of commonlyused programming languages. Existing codecan simply be transferred without any changes.If you want to provide the generated analyticsdashboards to the end users as added value, youcan select specific header colors, company logosand layouts beforehand. It goes without sayingthat TwinCAT Analytics not only works with livedata, but also with historical machine data. Thisfunctionality is covered by the Analytics StorageProvider, which can access various storagesand databases.The user no longer has to definethe table architecture in this scenario, since theStorage Provider does this automatically in thebackground and even access to the data doesnot require special knowledge of SQL commands,either for reading or writing. Everything can beoperated in TwinCAT Engineering via the TargetBrowser as it is known. It is therefore clear thatTwinCAT Analytics is not just a product, ratheran entire workflow that allows the applicationto be written for the 21st century with the aid ofstructurally flexible IoT technologies.21
Analytics:products andscenariosIn all TwinCAT Analytics applications, communication is key. IoT technologies offer excellent flexibility and performance. With data sources acting asMQTT clients, you can use the TwinCAT 3 AnalyticsLogger directly in real time, or the IoT Data Agentas a gateway application that connects existingTwinCAT or third-party devices via ADS or OPCUA. Added to this is the EK9160 EtherCAT Coupler,which publishes input data directly on an MQTTendpoint. Service technicians can either spontaneously access data live or via storage query.A continuous 24/7 analysis application is equallypossible for all data sources.AnalyticsTwinCAT Analytics Service ToolTwinCATstorageTwinCAT AnalyticsStorage ProviderMQTTmessMQTTBeckhoffTwinCATADS/OPC UAC7015 ultra-cBeckhoff controllerTwinCAT Analytics LoggerCX2000 Embedded PC with TwinCAT 322existing BeckhoffcontrollerCX5000 Embedded PC with TwinCAT 2

TwinCAT Analytics:all products ata glanceTE3520 TC3Analytics Service ToolThe TwinCAT Analytics Service Tool is ideal forcommissioning the machine and for serviceengineers. Live and historical data can beretrieved for an analysis via the IoT connection.Moreover, binary files created on the machinecomputer by the Analytics Logger can also beanalyzed. The analysis is configured in Microsoft Visual Studio where the user has easyaccess to a toolbox of algorithms for implementing the relevant life time, cycle time, envelopeor component counter analysis. The outputs ofthe algorithms can be used as inputs for otheralgorithms or can be output as a result directlyin the graphical editor. Signal paths can bevisualized with ease by means of parallel recording with the TwinCAT Scope charting tool familiar from the TwinCAT world. Analysis resultscan be dragged by the user from the analyticsconfigurator and dropped in the charting toolso as to mark the significant positions in thedata stream. These can be simple minimumand maximum count values but also results ofthe logic operator, for instance, which can beused to logically link events from the machinecontroller and thus retrieve them again in thedata stream. This allows correlation with othersignals in the Scope View in a precise cyclicalmanner. The interaction between the productcomponents offers advantages in particular fordiagnosing machine behavior and can highlight optimization potential. The user’s location24TE3500 TC3Analytics Workbenchis immaterial owing to the IoT technologiesused, which means that service technicians canperform system and machine diagnostics frompractically any location.O www.beckhoff.com/TE3520The TE3500 Analytics Workbench engineeringproduct allows continuous data analysis basedon multiple and spatially distributed sources. Alarge number of useful analysis algorithms can beused very simply with drag & drop in a graphicaleditor in order to create an individual analysisconfiguration. The key aspect in this regard isthe intuitive usability of the configurator, whichis integrated in Microsoft Visual Studio as aTwinCAT-independent project. The presentation ofthe algorithms is split strictly into three areas, i.e.inputs, parameters and outputs. The MQTT inputdata is selected via the TwinCAT Target Browser,with live data and historical data available via theAnalytics Storage Provider. Following configuration, which can be structured very clearly evenacross different networks, the results can bedisplayed directly in the graphical editor. Oncethe prepared analysis is complete and tested, thisconfiguration can be converted to readable PLCcode and a corresponding HTML5-based AnalyticsDashboard. The automatically generated PLC codecan be downloaded directly onto a device withTF3550 or TF3551 Analytics Runtime and operatedthere 24/7 in parallel with the actual data source,i.e. the production machine, and supply analysisresults. The structured text generated can ofcourse be enhanced individually by the application developer. Ultimately, this is a programminglanguage that is already known to the user fromthe respective machine application. The use ofBeckhoff standard PLC libraries is possible in thiscontext too. The libraries from the TC3 measure-
Configurator for the evaluation of historical data within Analytics Workbenchment area are especially suitable in this regard forextending the analytics functions, for example theCondition Monitoring library. Thanks to these features, the Analytics Workbench supports machinebuilder and producers of automation technologyin particular in realizing IoT projects in a straightforward manner. MQTT-based data communication allows the data to be processed and usedindependently of location. The dashboard basedon the TwinCAT 3 HMI can also be customized.On the one hand, through many options offeredby the so-called Deploy Wizard, and on the otherhand, through a Mapping Wizard, which makesit possible to integrate your own HMI frameworkcontrols into the dashboard generation process. Inaddition, this HMI code is also not a black box andcan be edited with the TwinCAT HMI engineeringtools. This allows you, for example, to define access authorizations for different target groups: formachine operators, production managers or themachine builder‘s service technicians. Ultimately,the Analytics Workbench enables the implementation of new data-based business models.O www.beckhoff.com/TE3500Core benefits of Workbenchand Service Tool: Expanded offers: development of newbusiness models through data analysis Time savings: a faster route to individualIoT analytics applications with automaticPLC code and HMI dashboard generation Simplified engineering: benefits offamiliar software development environment and the standard tools from theTwinCAT system Increased flexibility: TwinCAT IoT runslocally on the machine, in the network orin the private or public cloud25
