With the TwinSAFE Loader, Beckhoff Engineering provides a command line tool that allows the download and customizing of safety projects during runtime. This means that the use of the TwinCAT 3 development environment is not mandatory.

The TwinCAT 3 Drive Manager 2 is used for commissioning the AX8000 multi-axis servo system, AX5000 digital compact servo drive, AMP8000 distributed servo drive system, AMI8100 integrated servo drives or the EL72xx, EL74xx, EL70x7, ELM72xx, EP72xx and EJ72xx I/O components. It is optionally available as an integrated version in the TwinCAT automation platform or an update version independently of TwinCAT. The TwinCAT 3 Drive Manager 2 is integrated into a TwinCAT solution as a project and enables a separate assessment of power supply modules, axis modules and axis channels.
