    I have built an air-muscle powered motion platform that is using a Schneider Electric PLC to provide closed loop control of the actuators. The PLC program requires position data via the Ethernet port. Is there a way of outputting the data from the Profiler via TCP or UDP?

    :) Thanks for the speedy reply, it was worth asking though!
    Ultimately the motion data is going to be provided from VBS2 via a custom link, but I want to have a version that runs with X-Sim so that I can experiment with the dynamics. I'll sort out a serial connection, I did briefly see a USB icon appear on the output page yesterday, although the next time I started the program it was not there. I think I've got to spend a bit more time with the manual and forum.
