Abstract
A method for establishing communication between a control node and a machine in a machine tool system includes notifying the control node of an identifier of the machine. The machine includes a numerical control (NC). The method further includes the steps of retrieving a machine configuration file including machine attributes at the control node based on the identifier; determining a data structure of a data signal transferring information in the machine tool system by interpreting the machine configuration file; and acknowledging from the control node to the machine that communication has been established.
