Communication between ctrlX core's

What possibilities are there, for communication between two ctrlX cores (C2C)? Is this just OPC UA, or is there e.g. a possibility for a shared data layer, where core 1 can directly read/write a variable on core 2?ย

Hello Yvonne

There are several ways for a control - control communication.

++++++++ Update 09.03.2023 +++++++++

  • OPC UA (PubSub) - NRT still available, in the future the base of the RT-C2C
  • Datalayer connection via remote device - NRT and (as far I have in mind very slow)
  • PLC data exchange via
    • socket communication
    • CODESYS net variables
  • Ethercat
    • Master is available
    • Slave is planned after 2025 (ctrlX COREplus)
  • ProfiNet
    • Device is available since begin of 2023 (for some HW variants - ctrlX COREplus, ctrlX DRIVEplus)
    • Master planned for Q2/2024 (ctrlX COREplus)
  • Modbus TCP (since Q3/2022)

Recommendation:Use OPC UA

Regards

Jochen
