[yannic]

Hello together,

I can't see the ctrlX Core in PLC and Works. But I can see it in the network overview. I am also be abled conneting to the Core.

Are there any possible solutions for that issue?

So you cant log into the PLC runtime with ctrlX PLC Engineering? What about after opening the engineering tool via the web interface? Is the ctrlX PLC runtime app installed?

Could you please check if you can add the ctrlX CORE to ctrlX WORKS by hand? I have seen that at some customers the automatic search does not work correctly:

Hello,

yes I can open the PLC Program from the web interface (runtime app is installed). Now I can see the control, but there I cant get any connection to the ctrlX Core. I can add the Core by hand, but it does not help me with the connection. It seems, that there is a Problem with the gateway. Soemeone else had problems with the gateway settings?

Greetings

We had some problems with class C networks in the past. What is your IP settings? And which firmware version is installed (e.g. 1.10)?

A workaround would be to give your control a fitting IP like 192.168.1.1/24 as well as the PC e.g. 192.168.1.12/24.

Hi,

it is also working via two different protocols which one could be blocked on a pc/network.

Windows Network Overview --> UPnP

ctrlX WORKS --> mDNS
