festo-edcon for CPX-CMAX #2

Closed dani-carbonell closed 3 months ago

dani-carbonell commented 4 months ago

Hi, I am trying to control a CPX-CMAX from a linux computer with Python and I came across this repo. I am currentyl using a CPX-CEC-C1-V3 to control it.

Is there any plans to have similar python package to control the CPX-CMAX? If not. What would be the best aproach to interface with if from a linux computer?

Currently there are no plans for a similar package. Most likely the best approach would be interfacing the CPX-CEC-C1-V3 via Modbus TCP. There is a great python library for modbus access: pymodbus
