How are data between the control domains of ECS700 referenced to each other?

The ECS700 is an industrial robot control system from ABB. When referencing data across different Control Domains, it is usually necessary to use techniques for data sharing or data synchronization, which include global variables, network communication, IO signals, and other methods. To enable data reference between two control domains, a global data area can be created to store the variables that need to be shared, so that programs in different control domains can access these variables. If the system supports network functions such as Ethernet/IP, Profibus, Profinet, etc., data can be transmitted over the network. Additionally, information can also be transmitted through hardware IO signals, but this method is usually used for simple signal transmission. The specific setup method depends on the actual programming and configuration guidelines for the ECS700, as it involves various aspects such as the system’s network configuration, variable declaration, and program design. If detailed information is not available in specific modules or manuals, it is recommended to consult ABB’s technical support documents or contact technical support for detailed guidance. .

Thank you for the advice! I didn’t write it clearly; I studied the ECS700 from Zhejiang University’s Control Engineering program! I think I’ve figured it out; I hope you can guide me through the specific steps!

send_mix is sufficient, corresponding to get_mix

Inter-station communication can be achieved using the SEND-MIX and GET_MIX two functional blocks.
