Twido and Vijeo Citect Connection??Hello,
I'm new on control.com.
I am working and studying SCADA systems (for my graduation thesis). I programmed my Twido PLC by using TwidoSuite and also I created a project on Vijeo Citect. I think everything seems OK but communication. I tried too much but I couldn't communicate between my Twido and Citect. Vijeo Citect says that "I/O device is off-line" and I see my components pointed on Citect runtime page (which means there is no communication). So shortly, I want you to help me about communications between citect and Twido. Can I do it by using OPC Factory Server (OFS)?? I heard I can do it by creating a new device alias by using OPC Configuration Tool.
I need your help. Thanks a lot.

You must edit csv.fmt in Vijeo Citect directory.

I would like to know how you are trying to communicate with Citect, through Serial Port, USB port or Ethernet?
I have done few projects on Twido and Citect, you can mail me the issues you are facing at farooqbin @ gmail. com
