[MB] DataSuite News 02/22: Major update
something is happening with the DataSuite: We have developed many new functions for you. Read in this newsletter which features have been added. The best thing about it: Updates are always free of charge. So try them out right away!
Deliver machine data as a web page
Integrated webserver
HTML files can be created with DataSuite for a long time. Now DataSuite can also deliver them directly as a web server. This allows you to easily display machine data and statistics on other PCs, tablets or cell phones.
REST API for connecting third-party systems
Use machine data in other applications
It has never been easier to use PLC data in your own applications. With the new update, external applications – whether self-programmed or purchased – can access and use machine and plant data.

Bigger and smaller comparison for triggers
Simply send a mail/Excel file/etc. when a variable changes, that was already possible before. Now you can alternatively configure a comparison as a trigger condition. Of course including debouncing and other settings of a professional solution. Learn how you can reduce downtime with this feature in our new tech blog.
Beckhoff controllers officially supported
Thanks to OPC UA, Beckhoff controllers are now officially supported by DataSuite. In addition to Beckhoff, IBH Link UA is now also supported with minor restrictions.
Read Only Mode for PLC connections
As a further safety feature, we have added a read-only mode that can be activated. This ensures under all circumstances that no data is changed in the PLC.

S7 300 and 400 PLC time correction via trigger
You know the problem for sure: An old S7 300 PLC is connected and the time stamps are no longer correct. With the new TimeMaster function in the DataSuite you can set the internal time of old 300s and 400s with a trigger to the PC time, e.g. every day at 24 o’clock.

You know our DataSuite software and therefore know that it is very versatile and offers many functions. In conversations with customers, I notice again and again that particularly exciting features are often not known. I have therefore compiled some interesting little-known features in this newsletter.

wouldn’t it be nice if you could provide data of machines and plants easily and quickly as web pages? Maybe even with a diagram and your logo? We have built exactly this function and many more into our [MB] DataSuite. Forget the S7 web server and use the fast and easy alternative in the form of our software.
