Downloading the setup file
Like many other TwinCAT 3 engineering tools, the TwinCAT Bode Plot is available for download on the Beckhoff website. It is always the most current version of the product, which can be licensed for each product level. Perform the following steps to download the setup file:
- 1. Start a web browser of your choice and go to the Beckhoff website at www.beckhoff.com
- 2. Navigate in the tree to the nodes Automation/TwinCAT3/TE1xxx | TC3 Engineering/TE132x | TC3 Bode Plot
- 3. Here you can download the TwinCAT Measurement Setup file via the download button. If you select "Full", the setup also brings along the Microsoft Visual Studio Shell, in which the TwinCAT Bode Plot integrates itself. If the shell or another full version of Microsoft Visual Studio is already installed on the target system, the Update setup is sufficient.
- 4. Click on the Download link in order to place the software in the shopping cart. Then click on "Start download".
(Optional) Transfer the downloaded file to the TwinCAT runtime system you wish to install the product on.
