Connect to PLC - CODESYS

Introduction

The CODESYS development system is after registration available for download free of charge from the CODESYS Store.
Please consult the system requirements in the CODESYS Store for the development PC.
It is recommended to install the full package.

The following sections describe the steps to configure a project that contains one PLC that implements PROFINET Controller and the SITARA AM263Px based PROFINET device.
The PLC can be realized by a CODESYS runtime running for example on either an AM64x Yocto Linux Image or a KUNBUS Revolution Pi Connect Hardware.

In order to recognize the PROFINET device correctly in CODESYS, you need to add the Device Description File to your CODESYS Installation.
You can find the Device Description File within the INDUSTRIAL-COMMUNICATIONS-SDK at the location: "{INDUSTRIAL_SDK_INSTALL_DIR}\examples\industrial_comms\profinet_device_demo\gsdml"


In the setup described in the diagram below, a CODESYS (https://www.codesys.com/) IEC 61131 development and runtime system is used with a industrial RevPi Connect hardware (https://revolution.kunbus.com/) by KUNBUS GmbH.

Further instructions on how to realize a PLC based on RevPi and CODESYS can be found here: KUNBUS Revolution Pi


In the setup described in the diagram below, a CODESYS (https://www.codesys.com/) IEC 61131 development and runtime system is used with an AM64x SITARA Processor.
