Socket messaging irc5 controller

Hello,
I want to control irc5 controller with c# with socket messaging, but when i put code into rapid
VAR socketdev client_socket;
PROC client_messaging()
SocketClose client_socket;
SocketCreate client_socket;
 SocketConnect client_socket, "192.168.0.2", 1025;
ENDPROC

 I have ERROR that need PC interface option. 

What to do? Maybe there is any fast alternative to control irc5 controller with c#.

  • To be able to use socket communication you need the option PC Interface (616-1). Most of the communication alternatives against the controller needs the PC interface option. Get in contact with your ABB sales person to solve it

  • So one way is serial communication, without PC Interface.
