Parameterization and commissioning
Adding a PLC project
The PLC project can be added in the System Manager. The newly created variables from a PLC project are
integrated in the System Manager and can be linked with the inputs and outputs of the hardware.
Prerequisites for this step:
• An Embedded PC, added in TwinCAT.
• A correctly compiled PLC project and a .tpy file.
Proceed as follows:
1. Switch back to the System Manager window.
2. Right-click on PLC – Configuration in the tree view on the left.
3. In the context menu click on Append PLC Project.
4. Select a file with the extension .tpy in your system directory and confirm with OK.
The PLC project is added in the tree view under PLC – Configuration. The variables defined in the
project are shown under the inputs and outputs.
In the next step you can link the variables with the hardware.
