Hi,
I have a new role at my company to support some Twincat PLCs (Older CX units). I'm not very experienced with TwinCat but I'm trying to learn a few things on my own before the line calls start coming . One thing I'd like is the ability to connect from my office to the machine on the floor and view IO/PLC code remotely. I've done the following:
1. VNC in to the CX, run ipconfig, note the IP address.
2. On my desktop PC open TwinCat system mgr, "Add Route" by searching the CX's IP.
So I have the IPs routed to my desktop. My question is, is it possible from here to view the program that is loaded in to the CX? Or do I have to download the code first and then connect to the CX's IP?
Ideally I'd like to download the program from the CX's RAM so I have the most current code, then go online with that from my desktop, hoping this is possible...
