Overview
Here you can find two examples, one for a ctrlX CORE virtual and one for a ctrlX CORE, setup some axes and a robot via the web interface, EtherCAT configuration with ctrlX IO Engineering and PLC programming with ctrlX PLC Engineering. If you like to see how they were set up watch the corresponding how-to video "How to #2 Set up a ctrlX CORE & PLC Programming":
Preparation
An installation of ctrlX WORKS is needed.
A ctrlX CORE or a ctrlX CORE virtual is needed.
The version of the system apps fitting to RM21.03 is expected.
An installation of following apps (v1.8.x) is expected:
ctrlX CORE - MOTION
ctrlX CORE - PLC
ctrlX CORE - ETHERCAT MASTER
Please see "Configure Hardware Components with ctrlX Configurator" if you want to know how to get the hardware or watch the corresponding video "#1 How-to: Configure Components" to set everything up from scratch.
How to load the examples
To see how the attached examples can be loaded and changed between a ctrlX CORE virtual and a ctrlX CORE please check the video from 37:20 on, How to #2 Set up a ctrlX CORE & PLC Programming.
The configurations are "developRvirtual.zip" and developRreal.zip"
The ctrlX IO Engineering and the ctrlX PLC Engineering Projects can separately found in "Projects.zip" or loaded online after uploading the configurations.
Notes
These examples are made for the release version RM21.03 (V1.8.x) of the corresponding apps.
Beware of moving mechanics when using automated motion commanding.
