Hello, We have a customer that would like to use the EthernetIP adapter/scanner PLC addon on ctrlX Core, is there a project example available for this topic? Or detailed documentation on how to set it up? Thanks ... View more

Hello, I have been working with the core v1.20 apps and I did the assignment in the motion app mapped variables for the AT and MDT, and I was able to jog the Axes through the commissioning page on the Motion app like normal. I have then created a PLC project and I scanned my EtherCat master, then added the slave drives (which includes the assigned AT and MDT parameters, and gets mapped to an address within the PLC by default). After that I could not use the commissioning app to jog the drives anymore, I understand there is a conflict between the two apps to write/read the same cyclic parameters. My question is, what is the recommended method to use the same parameters (ex: Position commnad/feedback, and Status/Control word) inside the PLC app? To rephrase the question, is there a functionality similar to AxisData in MLC for retrieving common RT/NRT axis data (ex: actual position feedback, Torque, speed, etc.) inside the PLC app? Thanks ...

Hello, I have created a fresh instance for the App build environment, and I was following the setup video below step by step, but after executing the './install-sdk.sh' command, I get the below error at the end, it seems that the ctrlx-automation-sdk folder is missing? I also could not connect to host through the Remote -SSH on Visual Studio, not sure if these two issues are related. Any ideas would be appreciated, and sorry if these were obvious, I am still starting to play with the SDK and the App build environment. https://developer.community.boschrexroth.com/t5/Store-and-How-to/Setup-ctrlX-WORKS-App-Build-Environment/ba-p/61976   ...
