    Hi apakrat,

    Each PLC have their own IDE to program the plc itself. If you very keen to using codesys ide then you shall look at codesys store to find the related product.

    https://store.codesys.com/systeme.html

    And take note that every some other brand where declare using codesys runtime but you still have to using their recompile codesys version ide. Unless you are able to redeploy the codesys runtime into the any PLC.

    Thank you.

    Hi apakrat,

    As mentioned above, you cannot program the S7-1200 with Codesys, however you can program the Siemens IOT2020 / IOT2040 intelligent gateways with Codesys. They are not strictly PLCs, but they can be programmed using "Codesys Control for IOT2000 SL". Please see the store entry here:
    https://store.codesys.com/systeme/codes ... __store=en

    Information on the IOT2000 series can be found here:
    https://w3.siemens.com/mcms/pc-based-au ... fault.aspx

    I have installed this on an IOT2020 and successfully tested Profinet I/O, file read/write, and web visualisation. There is also a forum entry here on people's experiences:

    Please note that currently this setup does not support local IO, nor retentive variables.
