Serial Port Data

[Former Member]

Greetings,

I have a scenario: PLC - SAP XI - DATABASE. I am not sure that whether reading a serial port through SAP XI is even possible.

Actually PLC's interface is connected to a Serial Port on the computer. I would like to read this through SAP XI and then map them to the database fields. I would be very grateful if any XI expert could guide me how this is possible. Thank you.

Best Regards,

NAB

NAB,

Please refer some docs on Java Proxies.

I haven't worked on Java proxies, in the above url they said we can read using javax.comm, i think surely we can create java proxies for the same. Then your scenario will be,

Java Proxy -- XI - DB(Receiver JDBC adapter).
