I am trying to set up a twinsafe motion project on a CX5240. I created the safety project, downloaded it, then began to experience problems. It seems like the ethercat network really slowed down. Logging in to view online values began taking a really long time, and I even began losing connection to the PLC quite a bit. I deleted the safety project off the safety controllers (ELM7222-9018s and a EL6910), and I tried redownloading the safety project. However, the communication is so bad that I can't get the project to download. Any ideas how to diagnose the issue?
Hello, you may have some corrupted files. Have you tried creating a new project from scratch? You can delete the boot folders' content in the PLC (C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Boot), create a new project and download again.
Turned out I had a pointer error. I fixed that, then deleted the ADS connection manually and then recreated the ADS connection, and then everything worked
