putting data here to get started with mcd moving to full lst
As we discovered yesterday there is a network service interface between the MCD 11 AME Strapper and the AlplaLABEL station USMCD1PPC004. This caught us off guard on the workings of it and I had to do some research to see what Juan Carlos did.
We saw that when a strapped pallet passed thru a sensor, a pallet label was automatically printed. There was no direct connection between the pc and the AME Strapper unit so it had to be network based.
I did a netstat -an and saw a connection between the PC and a MLAN 2 IP. When I looked up the IP its was the AME Strapper.
Looks like the AME HMI was built to send signals to a specific IP (usmcd1ppc002) to trigger a print job on port 50000. This probably happens when the sensor gets tripped.
As you know they want something similar for Line 9 now. They don’t have the AME equipment there so I guess it will be manual printing now with the pc and printer supplied yesterday.
