You may need to take care re the patents. [1] This seem to make it clear [2] but sounds like there would be a few hoops to jump through, i.e. you may have to be a member to implement it. Some other links that may be useful; the ADS spec [3] and this source code here [4] from Beckhoff Automation which is MIT licensed. > Another interesting thing I found out is that Beckoff PLCs are based on a > software PLC called CODESYS from a company called S3.
