Overview

WAGO Navigator represents the frontend of WAGO’s engineering infrastructure. It provides an overview of all relevant automation technology applications and serves as an entry point for downloading or installing applications, or for opening them directly from a personalizable start page.

Software components and other content can be combined into a list for later download and downloaded and installed together. The same is true of bundles; these already contain interdependent components and recommended content and, if desired, can be installed automatically in the correct order after download.

In addition, WAGO Navigator offers an update check with integration into the Windows messaging system; this runs in the background and provides notifications about new versions of WAGO and CODESYS software components. Clicking on an update notification opens the corresponding update directly in WAGO Navigator’s integrated Download Center, where it can be downloaded. This helps make sure you are always using the latest version, especially for security updates.
