Post by charly29160 on WebVisu scaling regression in V3.5.22 P2: frame size jumps when switching visualizations ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Environment: - CODESYS V3.5.22 Patch 2 - CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi MC SL - WebVisu in browser Problem: When switching between visualizations using a Register element (Registerkarten), the displayed frame size jumps incorrectly after returning to a previously viewed visualization. This behavior was introduced in V3.5.22 Patch 2. The same project worked correctly in V3.5.21 Patch 4. WebVisu settings in V3.5.21 (working): - Scaling: Isotropisch - Automatisch ermittelte Clientgröße verwenden: active - All visualizations: Automatisch erkannte Visualisierungsgröße Workaround?

Hi, Softmotion Robotics does not support tracking in/out to dynamic coordinate systems with relative movements. Is MC_MoveLinearAbsolute an option? See SMC_RELATIVE_MOVEMENT_TRACKING_CS in https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/SM3_Error/Current/SM3_Error/SMC_ERROR.html Concerning the other error: Do you use any motion function blocks of SM3_Basic to move a single axis of the robot in your application?

Post by rmaas on Responsive Design Example ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I just tried the example project with control WIN x64 and for me this is working correct. The only difference is that it is showing 'TabletPortrait' when i hold my smartphone in portrait mode and 'Monitor' when i hold my smartphone in landscape mode. This is because smartphone resolutions have increased i guess... You could check what resoution is detected and change accordingly in IsSmartphone method.

Hi all, in the online help it written, that array of reference to data type is not possible. Ok... but if I create array of struct of reference to - everything works fine - please see the screenshots: and it works this way OK. Is it intention or error in compiler 3.5.18.20 and we should avoid it? Thanks a lot, Jan.

Post by snhatton on How to write a for loop in ladder? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi there, little late to the party, but you could also use the ST block for in-line ST code and implement a for loop as you normally would. ST Block is super handy if you just need a small amount of in-line structured text code without creating a new POU. Hope this helps!

Post by benediktenger on Access project information of references library by script ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I need to accesss to project information of a referenced library in the project. At least I need the "Released" flag from these information to check that no project gets shipped with unreleased libraries. Unfortunally, I do not get this information by script. I archieved to get the library reference object and the managed library object but both won't give me this flag but only basic information like company, name, version, etc. Here is my code: # get the library refernces proj = projects.primary objects = proj.get_children(recursive=True) for object in objects: if object.is_libman: for libref in iter(object): if libref.is_placeholder and isinstance(libref.effective_resolution,str): print(libref) print(libref.name) # get the managed libraries libs = librarymanager.get_all_libraries() for lib in libs: print(lib.displayname) print(lib.version) Does somebody know how do get these information?

Post by jacobwago on v3.5 SP19 - Modbus TCP Devices - Channel Limit? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I have experienced the same issue as described above but for the Modbus Serial configurator. Looking for a solution. In v3.5 SP19 Patch 7 the Modbus Serial Master Slave configurator has a "virtual" limit of 10 channels. In v3.5 SP18 Patch 5 this virtual limit does not exist. I can successfully copy back and forth from 18 to 19 with out any build error. However, this is not a good solution for our customers. What is even more confusing is that the IoDrvModbus library is the same version (4.3.0.0) for both SP18 and SP19. Please help in providing a fix to the virtual channel limit of 10 in SP19. Thanks,

Post by ben1 on How to write multiple coils (Modbus FC15) ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
If I am understanding what you are saying, then yes that would be your problem. I would create an array of bools on the client side for the transfer and try that. Or if client can't be changed then use words on server and unpack. But I am not sure if you or I are mis interpreting but it sounds a bit jumbled. I don't know what you have control of, but, if you are turning on BITS in the server, you should write to BITS in the client with a Function 15. If you are writing to WORDS in the server, you should write to WORDS in the client with a Function 16.

Post by rik123456 on Alarmmanagement – Dynamic Alarm List ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I had a question about alarm management in the CODESYS visualization. I am currently investigating to what extent the alarm visualization can be built dynamically. In my program, I have developed a motor block that is used for multiple motors. When the emergency stop of one or more motors is activated, the corresponding motors are displayed in the alarm list (see image). This works quite well. I achieved this by linking variables to a latch, after which a piece of code displays the motors that are in emergency stop. My question is: do I need to create a separate latch for each motor or can I use a single latch to display multiple alarms of a motor underneath each other? This would then look like this: Time…: M1 Emergency Stop Active Time…: M4 Emergency Stop Active

Post by imdatatas on Auto Declare window disappears by itself in the Ladder editor ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello Everyone, The "Auto Declare" window disappears by itself in the Ladder editor. For example, a new function block is wanted to be added to the Ladder editor. (For example; MC_Jog block and instance name will be fbMcJog). To do this, "Empty box with EN/ENO" is added to the ladder line from the Toolbox on the right and when you type MC_Jog in the empty box and press enter, normally the "Auto Declare" window appears and you are expected to be asked to write the instance name here. However, this "Auto Declare" window closes itself immediately, it does not wait for the user to enter a value or close the window. I often encounter this situation in many IDE versions. Does this seem like a bug? If anyone has encountered a similar problem while creating a new program name, function or function block instance name regarding the "Auto Declare" window and knows a solution, I would be glad if you could share it. Best wishes Imdat

not sure on which plc you are - there might be the option with: https://forge.codesys.com/drv/sm3raspistepper/home/Home/ but it is more or less Pi restricted and need additional hardware too I guess.

I found that the MQTT had an error: MAX_RECEIVE_BUFFER_SIZE_EXCEEDED. And MQTT hadn't reconnect since then. I tried a cold and a warm reset but nothing helped. How can I solve this? Regards, Paul

Have you received any feedback or found any solutions to the load problem. We are running into similar issues, even without codesys running the load avarage is above 1 meaning that it is to busy already without plc code running. Hope you might have some more insight.
