Is it possible to use ROS Kinetic Kame to control a siemens servo motor 1FK2 via Siemens PLC S7-1200?
Hello everyone,
I'm running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on an HP Pavilion 15-CX0004NK, and I'm working on a project in which I need to control the position and speed of a siemens servo motor 1FK2 via a siemens S7-1200 PLC with ROS Kinetic Kame.
Actually, I wanted to know whether it is possible or not to use ROS Kinetic to send speed and position control commands to the servo drive via this siemens S7-1200 PLC? I mean, the communication between ROS Kinetic and this PLC is it even possible?
and if the answer of the previous question is 'yes', are there any specific packages that I need to install in order to communicate with this PLC?
thanks a lot for your attention :-D
