TwinCAT 3 offers a wide range of options for connecting TCP/IP-based third-party systems to the control program: OPC UA, MQTT, HTTPS, and Modbus are just a few familiar examples from a large number of communication protocols. The TwinCAT S7 communication function extends this wide range further through the S7 communication protocol.
This product implementation facilitates reading and writing of S7 controller variables, which happens directly from the PLC application program, either via dynamically parameterizable PLC function blocks or via easy to configure I/O mapping. No additional hardware is required: the local network serves as the transport medium via TCP/IP.
