Introduction

The TwinCAT3 beckhoff systems have a special version of TwinCAT installed - the "Runtime" version XAR (eXtended Automation Runtime). This differs from the full "Engineering version XAE that is installed in the front end and camera PCs in that it is the bare bones of TwinCAT for machine running purposes. It does not have the Visual Studio editor in it.

The runtime version may need updating to 3.4024.xx to allow the latest front end and PLC code to work

Étape 1 - Check the current version

On the desktop of the Beckhoff PC, right click the Twincat Icon in the taskbar and select "About Twincat..."


TwinCAT version is displayed. 3.4024.xx is needed

...The .xx is the build number. Generally, all .xx will be compatible, they release a new build number for bug fixes but will change the main version number when it becomes incompatible


Étape 2 - Download the XAR version from G Drive

The XAR version, not the FULL version


Download it via teamviewer to the desktop of the Beckhoff PC you are updating



Étape 3 - Run the update

Double click to run the update

Click on ok for all defailts and allow all software from Beckhoff



Étape 4 - Reload the project

On the "visual Studio" Pc, restart visual Studio and reload the project.


The system may ask to update the Safety Project (if this is a TwinSAFEmachine). This is necessary.


Étape 5 - Activate configuration



Étape 6 - Ensure the PLC code is running

Check the code is running by looking at the version contol file.

...If the code is not running, the number highlighted in the orange boxes (version number) will be 0. Correct running will show the first significant digits of the version number - in this case 6.4


If it is not running, restart thje PLC and reload the project and Activate configuration again


If this still does not work, contact Beckhoff or GG
