You must have a dedicated driver variable for the measured or other production data. For example, this is a number variable (IN.Variable01). Record this variable to the driver variables.
After, you have to open the flow and the variables. Then, type the name of the driver variable into the driver ...

Identify the process on the PLC side
There are two ways to identify the process in x4Trace.
Identify by the process ID
Identify by the product code
These identifications work with the ProcessController line module.
To select the identification mode, set the following variable.
VAR_IN_PROCESS_IDENTIFICATION_MODE = LINE_PROCESS ...

ERP Communication
There are many ERP systems, and every ERP system has unique functions. We don't know what data you have or what data you or your customers need to have after production.
Therefore, x4Trace does not have built-in ERP communication.
But makes it possible to implement communication easily.

PLC integration
To integrate a PLC, you need to have three main steps.
1.You have to create the variables on PLC and write the PLC logic.
2.You have to write the driver for x4Trace. This driver is only for communication between the PLC and x4Trace.
3.Write the line module. This is the line logic on the x4Trace ...

Server Plugin
x4Trace server can run Plugins.
A server plugin works like a service in the server program.
You can find samples in the x4Trace.Server.UserPlugins.csproj.
This is a sample of ERP communication. Excel files represent the ERP.

Line module (automated line with special functions)
The line module handles lines. If you need special functionality to execute an operation, you can develop it in the line module.
The server loads the line modules at the start.
