The MMI gateway is the communications program between Windows
applications and ETC control systems. Different applications such as MMIs,
configuration tools or OPC servers can establish connections to one or more
control systems at the same time.
The gateway implements all required mechanisms for access control, error
handling and diagnostics and supports control−specific hardware drivers
and communication protocols. By means of the configuration tools, new
connections can be added and existing connections can be edited.
6.1 Installing the ETC−MMI gateway
The ETC−MMI Gateway is installed during the installation of the Lenze
ETC−MMIs. It can also be installed as a separate application. In this case, it is
available as communication channel for other applications.
During installation, the following files are copied to the system directory on
the PC (e.g. c:\Windows\System32):
File Description
mmigtway.exe Gateway program
mmictr.dll Interface for the application
ipcom.dll DLL with internal gateway functions
gtwconf.exe Configuration interface
mmigtwayini Configuration file ^ 283
)
Note!
If you want to install the ETC−MMI gateway without ETC−MMI,
manually copy the files to your system directory.
