Preparing a PLCnext Control Solution

  • Make sure that your PLCnext Control Solution is already executable on your PLCnext Control.
Note: If you want to publish your solution with a chargeable license, insert the function block LICENSE_STATUS from the "PLCnext Controller" library into your PLCnext Engineer program.
  • Log in to your PLCnext Store account and create a new solution.
    • To create a new solution, go to the "Software Products" tab on your profile and click the Create button. 
    • In the submenu that opens, select "PLCnext Control Solution".

A new page opens.

  • Fill in the fields on the Core Data tab. 
  • Add an icon.
  • Write down the Firm Code / Product Code of your created solution. 
    You will need the App Identifier (the combination of Firm Code / Product Code) later when creating the app description file.
Note: If you want to publish your solution with a chargeable license, add the Firm Code / Product Code to the function block LICENSE_STATUS and activate it. 
  • Save your solution as a draft. 
    As long as the solution is saved as a draft, the solution is not publicly visible and is editable for you at any time.
