Here are some base level measurements for comparison:
What libraries does Weintek’s Codesys support?
“Weintek’s built-in Codesys is compatible with wide range of built-in libraries. However, certain libraries that require OS support are not compatible with the device runtime. The libraries within the table below are compatible with Weintek’s built-in Codesys. Libraries that do not require OS support are also compatible with Weintek’s built-in Codesys.; e.g. OSCAT Basic, Util […]
Can I use add-ons or protocols not listed within the datasheet?
While the built-in CODESYS runtime supports key protocols, there are features within the CODESYS IDE that may not be supported. These include: Category Feature Note Communication OPC UA features Similar features already exist in EasyBuilder Pro Network Variable List Similar features already exist in EasyBuilder Pro Visualization CODESYS TargetVisu Visualization handled via EasyBuilder Pro CODESYS […]
How many devices can Weintek’s Codesys communicate with?

What communication drivers should I use within Codesys?
We recommend that you use device drivers included with Weintek’s Codesys package: Device Version CANbus 3.5.15.0 CANopen manager 3.5.15.0 Ethernet adapter (added under Ethernet IP Scanner) 3.5.15.0 Ethernet IP Scanner 3.5.15.50 Modbus TCP maste 3.5.15.0 EtherCAT master 3.5.12.0 PROFINET master 3.5.13.0 Note: You may need to select “Display all versions” within the “Add Device” dialog […]
Can Weintek’s Codesys communicate with a third-party device?
Certainly! You may use any of the protocols mentioned above to communicate with an external device of your choice.
What protocols does Weintek’s Codesys support?
Currently Weintek’s built-in Codesys supports the following protocols: Modbus TCP/IP (master) EtherCAT (master) CANopen (master) Prerequisite: CANopen is only available on Weintek CMT-X HMIs that are equipped with a CANBus port. EtherNet/IP (master) PROFINET (master) Note: Weintek’s Codesys cannot act as a Modbus TCP Slave by adding a single Modbus Slave device in the device […]
Why Codesys?
CODESYS is an exceptional PLC IDE that is the framework of many PLC IDEs on the market. If you have used Schneider, Beckhoff, or Wago’s PLC software you will find the CODESYS IDE quite familiar. In addition, the control logic complies with IEC 61131-3 which means that you can use ladder logic, function-block diagrams, sequential […]
