Overview

Using this function, you can individually configure which data is sent from the machine to Insights Hub, and how this data is sent. If a specific alarm occurs, for example, you can define that the HMI trace, NC status and machine data are sent from the machine to Insights Hub.

Manage MyMachines for Industrial Operations X Cloud "Shopfloor Management Application" allows you to individually configure the following trigger:

Time-based/cyclic trigger
Configuring a value-based trigger (variable)
Alarm-based trigger
You also have the option of sending an alarm per email.
You can find more information on the configuration in this Chapter: Configuring an alarm message and sending by email
File upload

It is also possible to copy all configurations of one asset to another asset.

More information: Copying configurations

Precondition

Manage MyMachines is activated for the required asset or the activation date has been defined to be in the future.
More information is provided in Chapter: Activating Manage MyMachines

For an activation data in the future, the previously set configurations only become active on the activation date.
To send HMI traces to Insights Hub, the HMI action log on the machine must be activated for the following data:
- HMI trace
- NCU data
- Machine data

Software option

In order to use the variable data, you need the "Path length evaluation" software option (6FC5800-0AM53-0YB0).

If the "Manage MyMachines" application is used with the "Cross‐Tenancy" function, the data and configurations are then visible in the tenants, but they cannot be changed.
