System requirements
The following article describes the minimum system requirements for the Condition Monitoring product for engineering and/or runtime systems. The Condition Monitoring installation must be carried out on the engineering and the runtime system.
 | Version-dependent range of functions The full range of functions described (see section PLC API) is only ensured with the installation of the current versions of the driver and PLC libraries. The use of previous versions is possible with a limited range of functions. A detailed overview of the functionality extended by Version CM3.2 can be found in the section Compatibility. The Overview also contains a list of library functions that depends on the product level. |
Engineering
Engineering system is the term used to describe a computer that is used for the development of program code, but does not run any program code. An engineering system must meet the following requirements:
- TwinCAT 3.1 XAE (engineering installation) build 4022.25 or higher*
Runtime
Runtime system is the term used to describe an industrial or embedded PC on which the program code is run. A runtime system must meet the following requirements:
- TwinCAT 3.1 XAR (runtime installation) build 4022.25 or higher*
- Operating systems: Win 7, Win 10, Windows Embedded Standard 7
- A license for TC1200 PLC and for TF360x Condition Monitoring
| A 7-day trial license can be activated repeatedly for testing purposes |
Engineering and runtime on the same system
In the case where engineering and runtime are to be used on one system, the following system requirements must be met:
- TwinCAT 3.1 XAE (engineering installation) build 4022.25 or higher*
- A license for TC1200 PLC and for TF360x Condition Monitoring
| A 7-day trial license can be activated repeatedly for testing purposes |
*: Use with a limited range of functions is possible from TwinCAT 3.1 Build 4018.
