Installing the runtime package in CODESYS

  1. Click Tools → Update Edge Gateway.

    The Edge Gateway view opens.

  2. In Select target, click Scan.

    The network is scanned for PLCs. The result is listed as IP addresses in the Scan Edge Gateway dialog. The respective MAC address is displayed in parentheses after each IP address.

  3. Select the listed item in the dialog that matches your PLC. If the IP address is unknown, then the MAC address can serve as the identifier. This is usually also provided on the hardware housing (for example, a label).

    The connection to the PLC is established.

  4. As an alternative to Steps 2 and 3, you could also specify the name of your Linux computer in the IP address field.

  5. In Login credentials, specify the configured credentials for the Linux system.

  6. In CODESYS Edge Gateway for Linux Package, in Version, select the desired version with architecture of the Edge Gateway package.

  7. The folder is displayed in the Package directory where CODESYS stored the Debian files for the Edge Gateway file (DEB file).

    Example: ..\Users\<name>\CODESYS Edge Gateway for Linux.

  8. Select the version with the desired architecture to be installed.

  9. Click Install.

    The selected Edge Gateway is installed. The Edge Gateway is started automatically. A manual restart is not required.
