Does anyone have any experience using TwinCat 3 and multiple programmers?
We have a job coming that would see two programmers working on one project. The layout of the project will be as follows, There will be one processor running two run times. Each programmer has a difference section of the machine and the will be in separate runtimes. There is one ethercat master connected to multiple servos and IO blocks. Each runtime will have dedicated IO, meaning we will not be reading or writing to each others physical IO.
I have done this before with TwinCat2 and it worked great. However, now TwinCat 3, physical IO is integrated into the same project there is no separate software.
The plan is for each programmer to get online and trouble shoot their own runtime without effecting the other programmers setup. I can understand that if a change is made to the Physical IO, it will effect both runtimes.
Does anyone have any experience on this or can provide a project layout that worked for multiple programmers?
