Hi all,

 

I am trying to connect/Integrate  Thingworx application "connected work cell" CWC to the Thingworx server 9.3.0. So anybody could provide the solution.

 

Thanks

Hi KSM

 

CWC is not compatible with Thingworx 9.3.0, you would need to upgrade your Thingworx a bit. Choices are : 

- CWC 9.5.0, released last week, works with Thingworx 9.5.0. The CWC installation documentation for 9.5.0 is here.

- CWC 3.1.1 works with Thingworx 9.3.9. The CWC installation documentation for 3.1.1 is here.

- CWC 3.1.0 works with Thingworx 9.3.5. The CWC installation documentation for 3.1.0 is here.

 

The installation process essentially looks like this : 

- Must already have Thingworx installed, the requirements are explained in the documentation.

- Download the CWC Zip file from the PTC download page, in the Thingworx Foundation group.

- Run the EXE installer, it will ask you many connection questions, like ask for your Thingworx URL and SQL connection.

- Fill an Excel data import tool, with configurations like the equipment types.

- A few actions are required in the Thingworx Composer UI, to finish configuring the equipment types.

- Finish the configuration in the CWC UI (equipments, smart tools, reasons, work instructions & steps, etc.) and start using it.

This should be explained in detail in the documentation.
