Problem connecting to Beckhoff PLC about node-red-contrib-ads-client HOT 7 CLOSED

Hello, thanks for the feedback!

The AmsNetId 5.77.xxx and port 851 are correct ones. The others would be if you wanted to connect directly to the I/O EtherCAT device.

As you are using Linux PC without any TwinCAT router, you need to create the route manually. As default the library is trying to connect to local router which would pass the messages to the PLC (and that's how it done with router).

See the following:

• Linux PC and Beckhoff PLC can see each other through ping command issued from the Linux PC:

Hello,
I have added StaticRoute via Visual Studio TwinCAT3 like this:

Then I changed the configuration of the notification node as follows:

Now when I run the code I get this error:

In Beckhoff docs there is not much more info:

Do I need to do something else?

I have a feeling that you have done something wrong with the route.

For example, when googling this error I found this comment. Make sure you don't have this unidirectional checked.

I have never created a route from XAE so I'm not sure if it's correct. Please try as in links I posted earlier.

Man you are amazing!
Managed to make it work without the unidirectional checked!

Awesome! Thanks for reporting that you got it working.
