fajean, thanks for you answer! Basically what I mean with the Twincat method is that when the PLC control logic (called PLC control in Twincat2) and the IO/HW configuration (called System manager in Twincat2) are separate projects you can e.g. put only the PLC control logic project in the version control and make the IO/HW configuration project "tailored" for each machine. Standard software from the version control is used to create the executable binaries which can be taken in use just by putting...
Hi, I'm wondering whether it is possible to separate the PLC software and IO/HW configuration in Codesys (two separate Codesys projects)? For example in Beckhoff Twincat you can do this and it is very handy with serial products where the same configurable software can always be used but only the IO (and option parameters) change. In this case the SW can be standard and IO (and parameters) are project specific. This makes for example software updates easy when you don't have to modify the software...
