Beckhoff TwinCAT IoT Communicator
Beckhoff TwinCAT IoT Communicator
TwinCAT IoT Communicator links a TwinCAT application with mobile visualization and messaging through an MQTT broker. TF6730 identifies the TwinCAT function and PLC-library side; TF6735 identifies the mobile app, so the two should not be treated as the same license or component.
Review Summary
Consider TwinCAT IoT Communicator for a defined mobile information workflow around a supported TwinCAT machine. Specify the broker, permissions, runtime license and message behavior. Mobile notifications are useful operational information and should not be assigned a safety function.
