    One of the things I thought would be changed when the official release was made was this:

    Zitat:
    This product is provided for testing and training purpose and may not be used in the field.

    but it still exists on the store site.

    From the questions asked on the forum, it is almost certain the these have already been used in real production systems but I guess this is just a way for 3s to protect itself?

    The hardware of the Raspberry Pi is out of our point of view not designed for industrial purposes. So whoever wants to use the SoftPLC on the Pi should be aware of it...

    Thank you for the clarification. That is what I thought. And I agree, the hardware is not industrial.

    How to update an existing Image to the new version?
    Copy by CODESYS FileBrowser 'codesyscontrol_arm_raspberry_V3.5.6.0.deb' to the Pi.
    then login via ssh and execute:
    sudo dpkg -i /root/codesyscontrol_arm_raspberry_V3.5.6.0.deb

    What is needed if I want to use a Raspberry Pi 2 as CODESYS plc?
    Either use the Image from the CODESYS Store download or use the same method like in the description above.
    Copy by CODESYS FileBrowser 'codesyscontrol_arm_raspberry_V3.5.6.0.deb' to the Pi.
    then login via ssh and execute:
    sudo dpkg -i /root/codesyscontrol_arm_raspberry_V3.5.6.0.deb

    Any additional recommondations?
    Use CODESYS Development System 3.5.6.x and install the CODESYS_Control_for_Raspberry_PI.package via CODESYS PackageManager
    There are some addition examples here: c:\Users\<youruserrname>\CODESYS Control for Raspberry PI\2.1.0.0\'</youruserrname>

    What is needed to update my existing CODESYS Projects to have all in the new version?
    Precondition:
    -Everything is up to date CODESYS / Package / Pi Linux plc side

    -Then open your old project - you will be asked to 'Update your environment' - yes 'set all to newest'
    -Then goto the device tree in your project and right click on the Pi device - 'Update Device'.
    -If there are any fieldbus in your device tree do the same procedure at least if a new version is available.

    There is an update available in the CODESYS Store :2.1.1.0

    What is new?
    Update of the plc rutime to V3.5.6.20
    the CODESYS Store download file contain a debian package (copy this to the Pi and execute 'sudo dpkg -i codesyscontrol_arm_raspberry_V3.5.6.20.deb') to update your existing version (on your sd card image)

    What else need an update?
    The recommendation is to update the CODESYS Developmentsystem to 3.5.6.30
    and update the Raspberry Pi Package (this could be done by the CODESYS PackageManager ...."search updates"- then download)

    For more information read the RaspberryPI_de.pdf:

    "c:\Users\<yourwindowsusername>\CODESYS Control for Raspberry PI\2.1.1.0\PiFace_FB.Project"
    should Show how to use SPI devices in your project without implement it as a library.</yourwindowsusername>
