Hello Guys,
Let's say that i have Beckhoff IPC and a Panel PC , where they should work as follows
1) The IPC is where the engineering is done.
2) The IPC has OPC-UA licence and is connected to a panel-PC which is located far from the IPC , but both are in the same network and both have OPC-UA
3)The IPC will function as OPC-Server (engineer side) , the Panel-PC will function as OPC-Client (user side) ...and each one of them has its own visualization (by twincat plc)
everything is fine till now, the coding and everything is ok
The Problem:
---------------
the IPC is accepted to show the windows desktop and all other windows including twincat3 visual studio
but the panel-Pc should only show the output of twincat .. for example when i press "activate configuration" then "switch to run time" ---->> "log on" to plc , then the visualization starts to work , correct ? now i want ONLY the visualization to work on the panle-pc , i don't want any desktop ,any ability to "minimize , maximize open another exe" and so on. The user shouldn't even be able to see the coding ,correct?
i think this is what happens in the case of a machine HMI and also scada HMI , right?
How can i achieve this ?
thank you in advance
P.S: if the plc-visualization doesn't support such a thing , i can migrate all my buttons and other controls to c++or C# (exe)
