The ctrlX DRIVE Connect App is a powerful, functional extension of the ctrlX CORE for use cases with Bosch Rexroth drives. It scans all interfaces of the controller for connected drives (ctrlX DRIVE, IndraDrive, HydraulicDrive). The devices found are automatically connected to the Data Layer of the ctrlX CORE and the associated data structures are mapped.
In combination with ctrlX DRIVE Engineering it becomes possible to commission drives, to diagnose faults and to carry out service use cases.
