TwinCAT 3 platform level (performance level)
TwinCAT 3 platform level (performance level)
TwinCAT 3 Runtime components are available for different platforms (performance levels, platform levels). The TwinCAT 3 license price depends on the platform level.
Examples of TwinCAT 3 platform levels:

High-performance platform level
From TwinCAT 3.1 Build 4020.10 or higher, there are four new platform levels (81-84 and 91-94), depending on the computing power above platform levels 80 and 90
With a TwinCAT 3 volume license, license downgrades have always been possible. An activated TwinCAT 3 license for a higher platform level can be used on a target system with a lower performance level.
For example, you can license and activate platform level 80 and then use the licenses on all systems with platform levels 20-70.
