TwinCAT 3 C/C++ Documentation

Quick Start

This quick start shows how you can familiarize yourself with the TwinCAT C++ module engineering in a short time. Each step in the creation of a module that runs in a real-time context is described in detail.

Two different scenarios are discussed:

  • TwinCAT Versioned C++ projects.
    Modules based on such project are loaded by TwinCAT and stored versioned in binary form.
  • We illustrate how to switch between the different versions via Online Change, using versioned C++ projects as a basis.

Before the quick start, please pay attention to the preparation - just once! In particular, prepare the respective driver signing.
