First time trying this beautiful software, i managed to do almost anything, the last thing i need is to create some sort of database where the client can read the data inside via ethernet IP, is it doable?

the PLC is a M580 with this configuration

Hello @upllop !

Absolutely, in EcoStruxure Control Expert (formerly known as Unity Pro), you can create a data structure that can be accessed via Ethernet/IP for clients to read the data. This can be achieved by defining variables in the Unity Pro project and then configuring the Ethernet/IP communication parameters in the PLC's configuration.

To do this, you would typically define the variables you want to share in the Unity Pro project and then configure the Ethernet/IP messaging settings in the M580 PLC configuration to allow external devices to read this data.
