Hey guys, just wondering if any of you smart people know a way to connect to a PLC remotely. What we've done traditionally is send a VPN router on site and connecting to it.
However doing this can take some time and I was wondering if there was an easier way to connect using a laptop that would already be on site to reduce downtime without exposing our code i.e. them downloading programming software and us sending a copy of our code so that they can go online locally.
I was exploring the TeamViewer VPN service but can't seem to connect to my test PLC even after adding a route through CMD. If anyone's done something similiar with TeamViewer and got it to work the help would be greatly appreciated.
All suggestions welcome as well. Just looking for a kick in the right direction so I don't go chasing something down for days only to find out it doesn't work.
Sidenote: I'm using Beckhoff and TC3.
Thanks!
