Configuration Settings

Define and set port and service parameters before deploying your project to the Edge Device.

Update the WinCC OA configuration file with the appropriate parameter values. Ensure all required ports are correctly opened and mapped.

Warning:
Do not use the standard WinCC OA ports on Edge Devices. The project must use the ports that are available for the Edge app, as listed in the port table below.
Warning:
Large projects may exceed the container limits of the Edge app. The current limits are 1.25 GB RAM for the winccoa container and 500 MB RAM for the node container.
  1. Open the project’s config file in a text editor.
  2. Adjust necessary parameters based on your environment:
    For example, update dataPort and eventPort as required. Ensure that Event, Data, Proxy, Web server, and WebSocket all use ports from the available Edge port range.
  3. Ensure the following ports are configured and open:
    Table 1. Port Settings for WinCC OA Components
    Parameter Value Description
    [all sections] data 34897 Port of Data Manager
    [all sections] event 34998 Port of Event Manager
    [general] pmonPort 34999 WinCC OA Pmon
    [proxy] proxyPort 35678 WinCC OA Proxy
    [webClient] httpsPort 38843 WinCC OA Web server / Dashboard (Webserver)
    [wssServer] httpsPort 38449 Dashboard (Websocket)
    - 38100 - 38110 Freely available ports that can be used by the business logic of your project(s).
  4. To ensure a proper licensing of the WinCC OA for Industrial Edge components, the local container ID must be added to your WinCC OA for Industrial Edge project by using the config entry [general] useCMContainerSerialNumber.: 
    [general]
useCMContainerSerialNumber = "130-1079500405"

The configuration file should reflect the correct port assignments for communication and UI access.

The project is ready for deployment on the Edge Device only if the configured ports match the available Edge ports and the project stays within the documented container limits.
