    Hi everyone,

    I’m using an IFM ecomatBasic CR413S controller and having trouble connecting it to CODESYS 3.5. I have CODESYS SP18 installed, as recommended in the manual, and I’ve tried different patches. I’ve also installed all the packages provided on the IFM website for this controller.

    I can successfully connect to the ecomatBasic template, but I’m unable to connect when using the CR413S-specific template that includes all the inputs and outputs.

    Has anyone encountered this issue or knows a solution?

    Best regards,
    Jan

    Hi,

    Could you please send an print of your ethernet adapter info?

    Ip addr
    Subnet Mask
    Default Gateway

    Also, check if the gateway service is active in your windows.

    Win+R > services.msc >

    Look in the list CODESYS Control Win V3 x64 Gateway OR CODESYS Gateway V3

    Hook up the M12 code D into the ETH port, supply the controller, it should apperars to you.

    Make sure when you try to connect with the controller, the target of your project has to match with the controller. Otherwise, click on the device in the devices tree > Communications Settings tab > Device > Options > And disable "Filter Network Scans by Target ID".

    Good luck.
