Post by smic on put the Port number 80808 in Instance Setting of Deploy Control SL ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am using CODESYS V3.5 SP20 Patch 5. I am trying to use the Webvisu function on a PLC running on Docker. When I enter the port value 8080:8080 in the Instance Setting in Deploy Control SL, it is not saved. Can you please help me?

In your soft plc folder, there is a file called targetvisuextern.cfg. Open this with a text editor to change the settings. Remove the semi-colons in front of the lines to enable your custom window settings. WindowType=0 means you will get a moveable window. Save the file and restart the soft PLC to enable these settings.

Thank you, very useful information. I did a library for serial communication and could not understand the reason only 256 chars could be read (after sending more than 256). Following your suggestion, I can now send any number of chars and everything will be received.

This came up again today, so I'll post the fix for future reference. Happens with Schneider Machine Expert 2.2 and M262 controllers. Add this bit of code to a program called from the visu task //disable "VisuFbFrameBase.SetInputPositionData" log messages, which fill up the logs IF VisuElems.Private_Visu_Globals.g_ValueChangedListenerManager.GetListenerCount() > 0 THEN VisuElems.Private_Visu_Globals.g_ValueChangedListenerManager.RemoveValueChangedListener(VisuElems.Private_Visu_Globals.g_ValueChangedListenerManager.listenerForOnValueChanged); END_IF

Post by kevinm on Programmatically change Tappet on a cam ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am considering using a SoftMotion cam and tappets to activate functions on a machine - for example, triggering a pneumatic valve. I need the ability to change the actuation point (tappet "X" location) from the HMI during machine commissioning. Is there a way to change the "X" value of a tappet programmatically?

Hello Everyone, Create separate repositories option not working in latest Codesys Installer 2.4.0 (Build 3545). It seems like a useful option regarding install the different versions of Codesys IDE on the same computer and keep in isolation from each other, but unfortunately it didn't work. I hope the Codesys team can fix this issue in the next update. Regards, Imdat

Hi jbu0105, which error doe you get, exactly? Is it error 11008, SMC_MOVE_INVALID_DYNAMICS? (It might help if you check the "Log" tab in the PLC device and copy the exact error.) Please double-check whether the inputs Velocity, Acceleration, Deceleration, and Jerk of MC_MoveCircularAbsolute have correct (positive) values. Best regards, Georg

Post by atone on Set DeviceID of an IO-Link Sensor at Runtime ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Answering to myself: is not possible according to the IFM support, this possibility has not been taken into account, although the interfaces and FBs in Codesys would apparently support it. So I ended up having to deactivate the sensor validation and the backup & restore functionality in the master and implement it in the PLC myself.

I'm trying to open the VisuDialogs.Numpad dialog to enter a new temperature setpoint on one of my VISU screens. For some reason, the numpad dialog does not appear as an option in the Open Dialog dropdown in my input configuration. I'm very new to CODESYS, so sorry if this is a simple fix/known item XD.

Post by timvh on Execute Codesys Tests with python ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
If you want to use the Test Manager, I prefer to start all the tests through the scripts of this manager. So open from there the projects, load it and run it. If you also want to use Python scripts to access CODESYS functionality, while executing a Test Manager script, then also start them from the Test Manager commands.

Thanks once again. Right now the codesys virtual control sl docker is using the host ip itself not the docker ip. so the local host edge gateway was able to search the virtual plc. so you are telling me instead of local host edge gateway I should use the edge gateway docker version?

Strangely, I can no longer download the project due to a licensing issue I didn't have before. The number of Modbus channels has gone from 1 to 54!, and there's no license that would work. Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong? Thanks Sandro

Yes, you are right.
