Post by abinvest579 on COP instruction ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi All, I have hands on rockwell software like rslogix 5000 and studio 5000. Currently started working on codesys i want to know is there any COP instruction with similar functionality in codesys like rockwell. I want to use it to split REAL into 2 INT,DINT to 2 INT also reverse 2 INT into DINT and 2 INT into REAL. Thanks in advance

You could create a DUT of the Type Union and add an array of 2 bytes + an Int. Then write the byte values in the array of the Union and read the Int. Or VAR iInt : INT; byHigh : BYTE := 2#1111_1111; byLow : BYTE := 2#1111_1111; END_VAR iInt := TO_INT(byHigh*16#100 + byLow);

Post by tvm on multiply gives negatives ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
It's probably because you have an INT in the input to the MUL function, which will then try to output an INT as well. INT variables can only handle values of -32768 to 32767. Your value of 523000 won't fit in an INT, so it turns into an invalid number. Use a DINT. This is usually better for working with time values anyway, because time values are all 32 bit. Or if you can't, use INT_TO_DINT(gvlp.detectie_nalooptijd_s) in the input to the MUL function.

Post by lamine97 on Issue with Timer-Based Increment Function in CoDeSys Ladder Logic (LD) ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am trying to implement a Ladder Logic (LD) function block in CoDeSys that increments a value A by B every T time interval. My Structured Text (ST) version works perfectly in simulation, but when I implement it in LD, it does not work. The ST code: PROGRAM ADDITION VAR_INPUT A : LREAL ; B : LREAL ; T : TIME ; END_VAR VAR Timer : TON ; END_VAR Timer (IN:=TRUE, PT := T); IF Timer.Q THEN A := A + B ; Timer(IN := FALSE ) ; END_IF;

I am using TargetVisu in my v3.5 sp20 p6 (64-bit) project. I see no control that will allow me to bind, edit, and display a LREAL variable. Am I missing a library? If it exists, why can't I see it?

Post by timvh on KeyPad Function in Visualization to fill a table ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Create an array of STRING and 1 INT variable, e.g.: asMyString : ARRAY[0..9] OF STRING; iIndex : INT; Then place a "Table" object in the visualization: - link this to the string array variable. - Check the option "Use Template" - Then in the Input Configuration - add the "Write Variable" command Somewhere else add a "Combobox, array" - link this to the same array. - And link the index to the INT variable. In the Combobox, you can then select one of the strings from the array. The index variable will indicate which selection has been made.

Post by davemansell on explicit cast ENUM to UINT and vice versa ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
This is from sometime ago but below might help someone else; this could be done via POINTERS. Make sure you protect for NULL pointers etc if you take this approach. // DECLARATION myEnumValue : enumMyEnum; u8 : USINT; pmyEnumValue : POINTER TO enumMyEnum; pu8 : POINTER TO USINT; // CODE pu8 := ADR(u8); pmyEnumValue := pu8; myEnumValue := pmyEnumValue^; // dereference the pointer

If my application does some kind of violation which makes it cast an exception it will trigger my real watchdog which results in a reboot. Unfortunately the log it seems only shows the boot sequence. Is it possible to see what happen before reboot?

My guess is that's a STRING, not an INT type. And it's 128 bytes, not bits
