Hello dear. I have the same problem. Could you solve it? Do you use GLV variables?

Here is some information about formatting different variables types: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_placeholder_with_formatting_sequence_in_a_string.html I hope this helps!

What is the exact meaning of the variables that measure the softmotion performance : Axis_Ref_SM3.perfTimers.udiAI_ns Axis_Ref_SM3.perfTimers.udiAO_ns Axis_Ref_SM3.perfTimers.udiBI_ns Axis_Ref_SM3.perfTimers.udiBO_ns

Hi, these variables are internal members of the axis. They measure the duration of some internal function calls.

Have you tried using the persistence manager which uses the file system of the controller to store persistent variables?

Post by fless on Warning C0564 when compiling CNC project with variables program ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Update: We managed to avoid the warnings by changing the order of initialization by adding an attribute to the GVL with the variables. {attribute 'global_init_slot' := '49989'} The variables are initialized right before the regular GVLs (default GVL slot 49990). Note to Codesys: I see the problem, Codesys needs to initialize the CNC objects before the GVLs so they can be used in the GVL. But then you can't use variables from GVLs in CNC programs. Maybe you could disable the warning in your generated CNC objects? At least a note for a workaround would have been nice.

Hi, did you get any solution. I am facing similar problem. I lost all the values

IDK why you lost values but about the limit, when you compile, you should have the information about the memory remaining.

no need to activate application composer. It is part of the licensefree part.

No. As you can see in the uploaded image, in my test project, I have a variable list GVL_1 which is located in appication_1. But if I write in POU_2, which is instead found in application 2, I cannot find the variables of GVL_1. it seems that the GVLs are children of each app

Post by clarenced on Multiple applications on one device sharing variables. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Sounds feasible, but how would I create this object so that both applications would use the same instance of it. If this did work, it's still not really the solution I am looking for as it would mean mapping every variable I want to use on the hmi through this object vs I was hopping all the GVL variables would be available.

The “_AB AT %IW0:word; ” if i called the value then im getting this error. like below "the declartion of the variable with an address assignment cannot be used in a PRG or GVL with the attribute 'subsequent'" This is happening when the GVL is selected in Redundancy Configuration. if i un-select the address declaration is working fine

Post by davidmic on Struct Literal ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi all I want to pass a struct into a function without declaring the struct in a VAR/END_VAR. Is this possible? I think this would be called a struct literal It would look something like this someFB.write(structArgument := MyStruct#(a := 1, b := 1.2), otherArgument := TRUE); With this struct declaration TYPE MyStruct : STRUCT a : INT; b : REAL; END_STRUCT END_TYPE

Post by ulvis on CFC Pages Cut&Paste is not working at its best ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
In the CFC page oriendted editor, if I copy some elements consisting of an input connector, some connected logic and an output connector and then paste this on a another page then the pasted elements get inserted with an offset to the right so that the rightmost connector falls outside of the page, in the grey hatched area. So far so good. Then I mark all the elements and try to drag them into the correct placement, collectively. THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE! I only get the "forbidden" icon tooltip. One has to drag & drop the INDIVIDUAL elements to move the elements around. What am I doing wrong?

Post by danieldiaz on Problem with FB execution ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello everyone, I've been working on a system which needs an error function, with this purpose I've created a FB programmed in LD, after debugging I run the simulation. It seems that the variable linked to a coil doesn't change the value when the contacts are associated to input variables. When I use internal variables the logic works properly. I don't know if the problem is related to the variables definition or with the logic program. As you can see in the image, I1 and I2 are variables declared on the FB, the rest are input variables. If I force the eStop and Reset signals to TRUE the coil value should change, but it doesn't. However in the second network if I1 is TRUE the coil change to TRUE as it has to be. To sum up, my doubt is why that coil doesn't change its value? I would like someone to shed a light on this. Thanks!

Post by fless on Warning C0564 when compiling CNC project with variables program ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, we are porting a CNC project from codesys 3.5.16 to codesys 3.5.19. The project has lots of CNC programs with variables. now we get hundreds of messages like this. [WARNING] CNC Test SP19: TestCNC SPS: PLC Logic: Application: C0564: A reference to uninitialized variable varCNC is used for initialization of TestCNC_D. Accessing the uninitialized variable may result in unexpected behavior. The objects program_name_D are implicit generated by codesys. I see no way to generated them after the variables. Is there a way to correct the initialization order? We know how to suppress this warning. But we need a clean solution as the warning already saved us in a other nonCNC project. Attached a small demo of the problem.

Post by sachem on Problem retain values Weidmuller UC20-WL2000 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Good afternoon. I am working with a weidmuller uc20-wl2000 controller, using a codesys license. We made a ladder code to control a process, and it works well, but we want some variables to remain stored even when the controller is turned off. We tried to use retain variables, but at the time of loading the program, when we went offline from the controller, the program was deleted, it did not remain in the controller, and in the same way if we turned off the controller. In addition to this, when we tried to program it again, the program would not stay loaded and began to present errors with the opc-ua communication. What could be causing this problem? How can we maintain the values of the variables without damaging the program or affecting the controller? thank you
