Binary or repository could not be found/loaded

Situation

One of the two messages appears when the configuration is activated. Depending on the cause and the installed version, other file names or version numbers may appear in the message.

The reason for the message is that the version used in the project does not match the version installed on the system.

Solution 1

Checking the Vision Library

Check the version of the Tc3_Vision library included in the project.

If the version does not match the one in the folder C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Repository\Beckhoff Automation GmbH\Tc3_Vision of the engineering system, either update the library in the project or install another setup version.

Solution 2

Checking the TMC version of the camera or FileSorce

Check under SYSTEM > TcCOM Objects > Project Objects the TMC version of the listed objects used in the project. If the version is highlighted in yellow, the specified version does not exist on the system or does not match.

Now either update the corresponding TMC versions (select the version via pull-down of the version, then right click on one of the object IDs in the first column and select Reload TMI/TMC Description(s) with changed version) to the available version or install another setup version.

Solution 3

The vision component is not available

The corresponding repository file is missing on the current system because the vision component was not selected during installation. Basically, the versions of the engineering and target systems must match. Therefore, if the systems are different, check both installations. On pure runtime systems XAR, only the Vision Service can be installed since all other files are transferred by the engineering system XAE.

Install the missing vision component or run the setup with the repair option.
