DPWS

The Devices Profile for Web Services (DPWS) is a device discovery feature used to identify the existing IP address of the TeSys Tera system. The TeSys Tera system must be connected to the network to identify the device IP address. The TeSys Tera system enables the DPWS feature by default.

The user must connect the PC to the TeSys Tera system and open the network option on the PC when the TeSys Tera system is connected to the network. The TeSys Tera system will be detected over the network and given its assigned name once it is connected.

Configure the network device name in the User Application Name option for the EtherNet/IP protocol and in the Name Tag option for the Modbus TCP/IP protocol. This ensures the name appears in the network device list. You can also disable the DPWS feature.

NOTE:

The device must be on the same network to be discovered.
The device name must be 10 characters length.
Verify that the link is detected and the TeSys Tera system is connected to the network.
To enable DPWS functionality, make sure the firewall is disabled. If the firewall is active, DPWS communication may be blocked. Enable Windows network discovery if DPWS communication is blocked.
