    I am a new user in codesys and I want to communicate with a stepper motor i've got via serial port, can everyone guide me? The exact things I want to do is to send some commands for example rotate via my com port...

    how to enable the serial port in /etc/CODESYSContol.cfg
    Example:
    (depend on which Interface you want to use you Need to adapt ttyUSB,ttyAMA etc ):
    [SysCom]Linux.Devicefile=/dev/ttyUSBportnum := COM.SysCom.SYS_COMPORT1;
