1. FEATURES AND APPLICATIONS
The SCM (Smart Communication Module) enables the conversion and data transfer of length
gaugesACANTOusingtheOpenPlatformCommunicationsUniedArchitecture(OPC)UAIoT-
protocol to transfer information to IT systems and IoT software.
OPC UA is a service-oriented industrial communication standard for secure and reliable data
exchange.Theprotocolisplatform-independentandenablesaseamlessowofinformation
betweendevicesfromdi󰀨erentmanufacturers.OPCUAdenesthetransportofdataand
interfaces, security mechanisms and the semantic structure of the data, as well as services
for the exchange of data between clients and servers - including access to real-time data,
monitoring of alarms and events, access to historical data and other applications. This standard
is maintained and developed by the “OPC UA FOUNDATION”.
Essential features:
• Wireless data transmission up to 50 m
• Transmission of measured values, diagnostic data and evaluation numbers
• Identification and transfer of additional environmental information
(such as humidity, temperature, pressure)
• Use of the OPC UA communication structure
• Available for length gauge ACANTO (EnDat 2.2) in Europe.
Essential Benets:
• Cost-effective extension of networks, systems and applications
• Flexibility to integrate new devices into an existing network infrastructure
• Improved usability through wireless data transmission
• Data Improvement - Transparency for analysis and reporting at all IT levels
• Improved IT security through a sophisticated communication concept, protecting
against unauthorized data access
• Improved data availability and data security through a robust data architecture with
reliable communication mechanisms
• Reduction of downtimes due to predictive maintenance processes

5.4 Commissioning of the Smart Communication Module
Connect the Smart Communication Module to a power supply (length gauge
disconnected). The WiFi-hotspot is established automatically by the module, set up with
the factory settings (Please check section 5.1). During the commissioning the LED of the
SCM lights red.
Illustration 9: SCM with WLAN (LED lights up red)
Connect the SCM-1000 to your setup device directly via the USB interface or via WiFi.
For the WiFi connection, an access point is automatically established by the SCM-1000
with the factory settings (see Table 7).

When the setup is completed, the network settings made are permanently stored in the
SCM (even if the power supply is disconnected) and are loaded if an ACANTO length
gauge is connected. To change the network settings again, repeat steps 1 to 4.

supply without gauge
Subsequently, the factory settings of the SCM will be loaded and a separate hotspot will be
established. A commissioning (see section 5.4) can be repeated.
Please note that by restarting the SCM without a connected length gauge an
access point is created automatically. The previously entered user-specic
network data is stored in the SCM.

6. OPERATION OF THE SMART COMMUNICATION MODULE
Connect the Smart Communication Module (SCM) with an ACANTO length gauge to a power
supply. During operation, the SCM’s LED is permanently lit in blue. The SCM-1000 can then be
used directly via USB interface or via WiFi.
For a WiFi connection, the entered network settings (see Chapter 4) will be loaded
automatically.
• SCMs that are connected via a WLAN connection can be used by all output devices
(PC/tablet) in the network.
• SCMs that are integrated via the USB interface can only be used on the connected
terminal device.
The output values of the SCMs (SCM-data/ length gauge) can be read out via the SCA from
NUMERIK JENA GmbH or via alternative software.
