Integration Architecture for E+PLC100 — External connections

Multiple E+PLC400 Architecture with E+HMI150, Web Client and Configuration Platform

“A customer wanted to increase efficiency by creating batches automatically when orders were entered into their ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system. The Eurotherm solution automatically entered data into XML format, where it was ready for processing. The E+PLC regularly copied newly entered data from the enterprise system to its own Batch queue using FTP over Ethernet communications. Automating the data entry process met our customers efficiency requirement by reducing data entry time. Additionally, human interactions and bar code scanners were no longer required, which reduced operator related errors and equipment costs.”
