Is it possible to access html5 HMI via EtherCat? Need a single cable/bus solution for I/O and HMI. Currently working with Modbus TCP/IP with 3rd party IO and HMI.

Take a look at Ethernet over EtherCAT (EoE). This sounds like a perfect use case if supported by the hardware.

Some more information about the topology and what exactly you like to access would be very helpful.

for this use case Bosch Rexroth offer the ctrlX IO XB-ET-31 module, to get within an EtherCAT ctrlX IO station a EoE access

Using WLAN is also already possible and done in our "Solution Sets for Cartesian handling applications" used by our lead customers and on our fair exhibits.

There are already some how tos for this topic:

  • Mobile HMI panels wired or wireless OPC UA [DOCU]
  • Mobile HMI panels wired or wireless ModbusTCP [DOCU]

In the forum there is the topic "Wifi dongle as access point" talking about this topic.

See also success story "Heinrich Wagner Sinto Maschinenfabrik GmbH" where ctrlX CORE is connected via WLAN.
