The IoT product portfolio is extended by the implementation of a WebSocket client, providing a further protocol for communication from the TwinCAT 3 PLC in addition to HTTP and MQTT. The control also features a WebSocket server, which acts as both a WebSocket client and a WebSocket server. The WebSocket protocol is suitable for a bidirectional connection between server and client, and is used in web communication when the server wants to actively send data to the client, such as in live tickers for sports events, support chats, or even messaging services.
