In this part we will go through some basics regarding why a standard operating system is not suitable for many of the industrial automation tasks, and why you need something like TwinCAT for certain applications. We will look into how TwinCAT is coexisting next to the operating system and how they cooperate. Next, we will create our first TwinCAT 3 solution and learn how to configure the realtime properties of our project. In order to run any TwinCAT software, we will also need to enable virtualization in the BIOS of the computer, which will be shown. We will briefly look at how licensing works in TwinCAT 3, and after that we will create the classical "Hello world" program, although it will probably be different compared to the conventional programming languages you might have worked with previously.
