Introduction

The ThingWorx-LDM-interface-lib is a software library (available for free at
www.prosoft-technology.com), to be used with a ThingWorx C SDK software
library from PTC®. You can use these to create a sample application to allow
communications between a ControlLogix PLC and a ThingWorx Server.
The sample application can be used as-is. This document will provide step-by-
step instructions on how to create the sample application. You can also extend
the features of the sample application to suit your needs.
Our goal is to read and write data from the PLC to and from ThingWorx. This will
be accomplished by running the sample application on the MVI56E-LDM,
connected to the ThingWorks Server.
