Hi all,
Since We are using TC4024 we are using the "Variant Management" featur" from TwinCAT. This help us to keep one PLC program in same machines or very similar machines.
That it's very helpfull for us in many cases, but if we improve the feature of "Manage multiple machines" on CPS maybe can be avoid this feature in many situations, and in other make our SW more clear.
My suggestion is:
- As you can set if you want to use an individual text or languages in the options, extend this menu to have a list of "Settings" (constants) to get different values depending of which machine is selected.
Sometimes you need to use different constants in your projects, especially some values in the peripherals, e.g. Axis limits or other settings.
- Get the oportunity to know in the PLC which version of the Multiple machine is loaded on the PLC.
Thats is less efort instead compatibility with Project Variant in TwinCAT.
Is anybody find this interesant?
Do you think that this feature can be integrated in the future in CPS?
Please write your impressions.
