Restoring the Beckhoff real-time driver.

The Beckhoff real-time driver can be restored if the real-time driver was uninstalled or the original Intel® driver for jumbo frames or NIC Teaming was installed, for example. This chapter shows you how to use TcRteInstall.exe to restore the Beckhoff real-time driver. The file is in the TwinCAT directory by default.

Requirements:

You can find the TcRteInstall.exe in a TwinCAT 2 standard installation under: C:\TwinCAT\Io\TcRteInstall.exe
And in a TwinCAT 3 standard installation under: C:\TwinCAT\3.1\System\TcRteInstall.exe

Proceed as follows:

1. Double-click the TcRteInstall.exe file.
The installation dialog appears and shows the compatible Ethernet interfaces under Compatible devices.
