  5. In the Trigger URL field, enter the URL corresponding to the command variable defined on the PLC.
  6. In the Acknowledge URL field, enter the URL corresponding to the status variable defined on the PLC.
  7. If authentication has been activated for the OPC UA Server, enter the corresponding login data in the User and Password fields.
  8. Define the other fields of the job as desired and confirm by clicking on OK.

The versiondog server checks the value of the command variable (trigger-URL) every 1 minute. If the variable takes the value 1, the job is added to the job execution queue.

When the job starts, versiondog writes a 1 to the status variable on the controller. Once the job has been successfully completed, the status variable is assigned the value 2. This can be set back to 0 on the controller, for example, to allow a restart. This functionality has to be implemented in the application program of the controller.
