Connecting your Heidenhain control and other equipment is the first step to getting started with Industry 4.0. Enabling machine data collection on Heidenhain controls enables you to monitor machine performance and conditions in real-time.
With an integrated shop floor, you can build a foundation for data-driven manufacturing, process optimization, and automation. Heidenhain offers a variety of connectivity options. The connectivity method will depend on the control you are trying to collect data from. We walk through these options below and link to more in-depth instructional content.
The iTNC 530 communicates via TCP/IP using the LSV-2 protocol. There are a few items that should be addressed before enabling data collection from an iTNC 530.
