Accessing TcIo parameters

In principle, all TcIo parameters can be accessed in the PLC. Access takes place via the TcCom objects in the Solution Explorer.

Accessing TcIo parameters 1:

Example Number of detected movers

Access to TcIo parameters is illustrated by reading out the number of detected movers. Calling up the online parameters is done in the same way for all TcIo parameters.

Accessing TcIo parameters 2:
►Expand Solution Explorer > TwinCAT Project > SYSTEM > TcCOM Objects
►Double click on XtsProcessingUnit
Accessing TcIo parameters 3:
►In the project window click on the Parameter (Online) tab
►Expand Mover Detection
