In this video, you’ll learn how to connect a CODESYS PLC to Factory IO using OPC UA. We’ll guide you through creating a new CODESYS project, adding global variables, and setting up communication. You’ll see how to write simple logic, configure the OPC UA server, and adjust security settings to allow external connections.
Then, we’ll move into Factory IO, where you’ll set up the OPC UA client, browse available tags, and map them to your simulation. Finally, you’ll run the scene and confirm that the connection works.
Factory IO is a paid piece of software, but you can sign up for a free trial using this link: factoryio.com/url-action?ref=ytkwmtq
