Codesys Ros2 [updated] -
Here’s a feature concept for bridging CODESYS (a leading IEC 61131-3 development environment for industrial controllers) with ROS 2 (Robot Operating System), aimed at simplifying hybrid robotics/automation projects.
Step 4: Run
- Launch the CODESYS runtime and download the PLC application.
- Run the ROS 2 node:
ros2 run my_package commander. - Watch the motor speed variables in CODESYS online monitoring change in real-time.
. While common, these often have higher latency compared to native shared memory implementations. Key Benefits Reliability codesys ros2
- Manages the battery management system (BMS).
- Controls the motor drives (CANopen or EtherCAT).
- Reads safety scanners (SICK or SICK safety PLCs) to trigger emergency stops.
- The Task: Ensures the robot stops immediately if an obstacle is detected, regardless of what the PC thinks.
