BECKHOFF TwinCAT V2:Â Configuring versiondog
Requirements that need to be met to work with BECKHOFFÂ TwinCAT systems in a versiondog environment
- You need to have access to a licensed BECKHOFFÂ TwinCAT editor and connect it to your versiondog system.
- If you want your versiondog server to execute all uploads, install all standard libraries in the following directory, located on the computer on which your versiondog is installed:C:TwinCATPlcLib.
- If you want each IPC (industrial PC) to execute its own backups or create a backup without changing the AMS Network configuration, install an agent on each of these IPCs. The IPC needs to be restarted during the installation process.
- To configure the AMS Net route for the upload, you need full access rights on the online device (IPC).
Ways of using TwinCAT V2 with versiondog
- The TwinCAT System Manager can be installed on the versiondog server. The versiondog server communicates directly with the IPC.
- You can use a versiondog agent to establish a connection to the IPC, on which the TwinCAT System Manager is installed.
