TwinCAT HMI v12 feature updates

Plastic Application v12.16.0, or TF8550 v12.24.0, is the latest version in which new features are also available for TwinCAT HMI v12. Future releases will no longer include new features for TwinCAT HMI v12. Patches to optimize the v12 packages will continue to be made available. Instructions for downloading the v12 packages can be found in the TF8550 documentation.

Only use the minor version of the TwinCAT 3 HMI specified here. Experience shows that minor updates may cause incompatibilities with the TwinCAT Plastic Application HMI project. If you have questions about specific versions, please contact Plastics@beckhoff.com.

Version of the documented software 4:

New version key from V12.8.1

From version v12.8.1, a new version key applies for the PLC libraries Plastic Technology Functions (TF8560) and Plastic Base Application. All digits of the version number are shifted one position to the left so that the leading V3.x.x.x is omitted. Furthermore, as already applied to the Plastic TC HMI Controls (TF8550), only every even minor version is released. For odd-numbered minor versions, this is a pre-release version.
