[ISS Support Case] Configuring SIDIRECT Communication With Intouch 2023

Last updated: March 6th, 2025

Description

We are setting up connections to Siemens S7-1500 PLCs and those are new to me in AVEVA world. I am looking for some basic information on OI Server setup using SIDIRECT and corresponding access setup in InTouch. We plan on using the Legacy reference. I have found the required settings for PLC communication and I will confirm those settings with the vendor. There will be five independent S7-1500 and I will be creating five different Legacy objects. Is the Legacy object name the Topic name assigned in InTouch or is it the Device Group name in the Legacy object. And what is the application name to use for InTouch. And I wasn't sure if I needed to define the tags in the Legacy object. I am used to AB where that is not needed. I have the AVEVA doc link, https://docs.aveva.com/bundle/sp-cdp-drivers/page/SIDIR4OI4index.html, for SIDIRECT. Any other documents that have the complete steps to setup the OI server and then the InTouch settings would be helpful.
