Examples are valid for:<\/p>\n

TMflow Software version: 1.76 or later.<\/p>\n

TM Robot Hardware version: HW 1.x\/2.x\/3.x<\/p>\n

Other specific requirements: Refer to\u00a0Preparation<\/strong>\u00a0section below.<\/p>\n

Note that older or newer software versions may have different results.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Goal<\/h2>\n

We could leverage 3rd-party module to extend the channels if additional analog ouptuts are needed.<\/p>\n

For example, you can control the power of a welding power source from 0~100% by 0~10V.<\/p>\n

In this article, we will demo how to set an analog output via Modbus TCP\/IP in TMflow.<\/p>\n
