Now Organize Codesys Programs with TAS

The Turck Automation update offers condition monitoring for smart cables, batch processing for Codesys and visualization for HF RFID communication

Mülheim, November 2, 2023 – The latest release 1.9. of the Turck Automation Suite (TAS) now enables Codesys control programs via network to be downloaded, saved, run, stopped and restored via batch processing. Until now, this had to be done directly in Codesys on each individual device. The update provides another innovation for the M12Plus smart cable series: The Cable Monitor app displays the current and temperature of the smart M12Plus cables in TAS, so that condition monitoring can be implemented for particularly critical connections.

The HF Tag Actions app offers a similar function. It can now display any possible detuning on HF read/write heads for long range devices (TNSLR), which may be caused by metallic environments. This provides additional transparency and safety when commissioning RFID systems. TAS even offers with the HF Quality app enhanced analysis for the new Q130 HF read/write head with an Ethernet interface. It graphically displays the transmission quality and the RSSI value virtually in real time.

Another new feature is the addition of Chinese, French and Spanish to the existing German and English menu languages. The new version 1.9.0.0 will be available directly on the Turck website or as an update directly in TAS at the beginning of the SPS fair 2023.
