Uploading a TwinCAT configuration

The TwinCAT configuration is loaded into the Bus Terminal Controller via ADS protocol.

Serial ADS protocol

(all Bus Terminal Controllers of the BCxx50, BCxx20 and BXxx00 series)

Enter the serial ADS connection, as described in the chapter Serial ADS .

ADS protocol via the fieldbus

(BC3150, BC5150, BC9x20, BC9050, BX3100, BX5100, BX9000, BC9191 only)

A prerequisite is that TwinCAT operates as master and is engaged in data exchange, i.e. the physical and fieldbus configuration must be complete, and data exchange must take place between the master (e.g. fieldbus card) and the Bus Terminal Controller.

Choose Target System

Select the Bus Terminal Controller onto which the configuration is to be loaded. Use the function key [F8] to open the dialog for downloading your file to the corresponding device.
