Connect SINUMERIK 808D
We found no Siemens documentation of an OPC UA server on the SINUMERIK 808D: it is absent from the OPC UA manuals and from the Manage MyMachines requirements. Litmus Edge lists a dedicated Sinumerik 808D driver. Where no driver fits, discrete I/O gives state and counts.

Data you can read

- Trial the driverRun the edge driver against one machine and list the tags it actually returns.
- DecideIf the needed signals are missing, add discrete I/O for state and count.
Traps to avoid
- Do not assume 840D sl procedures apply to 808D.
