A graphic display of curves is essential for optimizing controllers and setting drive axes. The new TwinCAT Scope (photo) features a separate Logger and Viewer, and has been redesigned for scientific automation. The Logger, which can be installed in a Windows CE control system, records the data from different channels with time stamps and saves them intermediately. The data can come from different PCs and software devices, including PLC and Motion Control. The viewer fetches data from the Logger and displays it. — Beckhoff Automation GmbH, Verl, Germany
