为什么 MCP 改变一切
经典 AI 助手(ChatGPT、Copilot)在工业自动化中存在一个重大问题:上下文幻觉。它们生成语法正确的 SCL 代码,但使用不存在的变量、错误的数据类型,或忽略您的硬件配置。借助 T-IA Connect 内置的 MCP 服务器,AI 可以查看您的项目、读取您的标签表、检查现有块 — 并真正在 TIA Portal 中创建或修改代码。
前提条件
- T-IA Connect 已安装并运行
- 已打开 TIA Portal 项目(V16–V21)
- 兼容 MCP 的 AI 客户端(Claude Desktop 或任何 MCP 客户端)
设置:将您的 AI 连接到 TIA Portal
在 Claude Desktop 配置文件(claude_desktop_config.json)中将 T-IA Connect 添加为 MCP 服务器:
{
"mcpServers": {
"tia-connect": {
"command": "C:\\Program Files\\FeelAutomCorp\\TiaConnect\\TiaPortalApi.McpBridge.exe",
"args": [],
"env": {
"TIA_CONNECT_URL": "http://localhost:9000",
"TIA_CONNECT_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
}
}
}
}McpBridge.exe 充当 stdio 到 HTTP 的桥梁。它将 AI 请求转发到 T-IA Connect API 服务器,该服务器通过 Openness 与 TIA Portal 通信。
示例 1:检查项目状态
最简单的工具 — 验证与 TIA Portal 的连接并查看当前打开的项目。
{
"name": "get_project_status",
"arguments": {}
}{
"connected": true,
"projectName": "WaterTreatment_V19",
"projectPath": "C:\TIA_Projects\WaterTreatment_V19",
"tiaVersion": "V19",
"modified": false
}示例 2:打开项目
直接从 AI 打开 TIA Portal 项目文件。您还可以使用 list_project_files 扫描磁盘上的可用项目。
{
"name": "open_project",
"arguments": {
"path": "C:\TIA_Projects\WaterTreatment_V19\WaterTreatment_V19.ap19"
}
}{
"success": true,
"projectName": "WaterTreatment_V19",
"version": "V19"
}示例 3:列出设备
查看当前项目中的所有 PLC、HMI 和其他设备。
{
"name": "list_devices",
"arguments": {}
}[
{
"name": "PLC_1",
"type": "CPU 1516-3 PN/DP",
"category": "PLC"
},
{
"name": "HMI_1",
"type": "TP1500 Comfort",
"category": "HMI"
}
]示例 4:列出和读取块
浏览 PLC 中的所有块(FB、FC、DB、OB),然后读取任意块的完整代码和接口。
// Step 1: List all blocks
{ "name": "list_blocks", "arguments": { "deviceName": "PLC_1" } }
// Step 2: Read a specific block
{ "name": "get_block_details", "arguments": {
"deviceName": "PLC_1",
"blockName": "FB_MotorControl"
}
}// list_blocks response
[
{ "name": "Main [OB1]", "type": "OB", "language": "LAD", "number": 1 },
{ "name": "FB_MotorControl", "type": "FB", "language": "SCL", "number": 1 },
{ "name": "DB_Config", "type": "DB", "language": "DB", "number": 1 }
]
// get_block_details response
{
"name": "FB_MotorControl",
"type": "FB",
"language": "SCL",
"interface": {
"input": [
{ "name": "Start", "type": "Bool" },
{ "name": "Stop", "type": "Bool" },
{ "name": "SpeedSetpoint", "type": "Real" }
],
"output": [
{ "name": "Running", "type": "Bool" },
{ "name": "Speed", "type": "Real" }
]
},
"code": "#Running := #Start AND NOT #Stop;\nIF #Running THEN\n #Speed := #SpeedSetpoint;\nEND_IF;"
}示例 5:创建 SCL 块
最强大的工具 — 创建带有 SCL 代码、类型化变量和完整接口定义的功能块。AI 可以根据您用自然语言描述的需求生成此代码。
{
"name": "create_scl_block",
"arguments": {
"deviceName": "PLC_1",
"blockName": "FB_ValveControl",
"blockType": "FB",
"interface": {
"input": [
{ "name": "Open", "type": "Bool" },
{ "name": "Close", "type": "Bool" },
{ "name": "Timeout", "type": "Time", "defaultValue": "T#5s" }
],
"output": [
{ "name": "IsOpen", "type": "Bool" },
{ "name": "IsClosed", "type": "Bool" },
{ "name": "Error", "type": "Bool" }
]
},
"sclCode": "IF #Open AND NOT #Close THEN\n #IsOpen := TRUE;\n #IsClosed := FALSE;\nELSIF #Close THEN\n #IsOpen := FALSE;\n #IsClosed := TRUE;\nEND_IF;"
}
}{
"name": "FB_ValveControl",
"type": "FB",
"number": 2,
"created": true
}示例 6:管理标签
列出标签表、浏览变量,并创建具有正确地址和数据类型的新标签。
// List existing tags
{ "name": "list_tags", "arguments": {
"deviceName": "PLC_1",
"tableName": "Motors"
}
}
// Create a new tag
{ "name": "create_tag", "arguments": {
"deviceName": "PLC_1",
"tableName": "Motors",
"name": "Motor2_Start",
"dataType": "Bool",
"logicalAddress": "%I0.2"
}
}// list_tags response
[
{ "name": "Motor1_Start", "dataType": "Bool", "address": "%I0.0" },
{ "name": "Motor1_Stop", "dataType": "Bool", "address": "%I0.1" },
{ "name": "Motor1_Running", "dataType": "Bool", "address": "%Q0.0" }
]
// create_tag response
{
"name": "Motor2_Start",
"dataType": "Bool",
"address": "%I0.2",
"created": true
}示例 7:编译
触发设备编译以验证生成的代码。错误和警告会返回,以便 AI 自动修复问题。
{
"name": "compile_device",
"arguments": { "deviceName": "PLC_1" }
}{
"success": true,
"errors": [],
"warnings": [
"FB_ValveControl: Variable 'Timeout' declared but not used"
],
"warningCount": 1,
"errorCount": 0
}示例 8:搜索硬件目录
搜索西门子硬件目录并将设备添加到您的项目中 — 全部通过自然语言完成。
// Search the catalog
{ "name": "search_hardware_catalog", "arguments": {
"query": "CPU 1511"
}
}
// Add the device
{ "name": "add_device", "arguments": {
"deviceName": "PLC_2",
"typeIdentifier": "OrderNumber:6ES7 511-1AK02-0AB0/V2.9"
}
}// search_hardware_catalog response
[
{
"name": "CPU 1511C-1 PN",
"typeIdentifier": "OrderNumber:6ES7 511-1CK01-0AB0/V2.9",
"version": "V2.9"
},
{
"name": "CPU 1511-1 PN",
"typeIdentifier": "OrderNumber:6ES7 511-1AK02-0AB0/V2.9",
"version": "V2.9"
}
]
// add_device response
{
"name": "PLC_2",
"type": "CPU 1511-1 PN",
"added": true
}示例 9:HMI 画面
列出、创建和检查 WinCC HMI 画面。获取完整的 XML 设计用于分析。
// List screens
{ "name": "list_hmi_screens", "arguments": {
"deviceName": "HMI_1"
}
}
// Create a new screen
{ "name": "create_hmi_screen", "arguments": {
"deviceName": "HMI_1",
"screenName": "MotorOverview"
}
}// list_hmi_screens response
[
{ "name": "MainScreen", "type": "Screen" },
{ "name": "AlarmView", "type": "Screen" }
]
// create_hmi_screen response
{
"name": "MotorOverview",
"created": true
}示例 10:保存、归档和关闭
