inside the fb, use the reflection-attribute and get the instancename includibg whole path.when im right, the applicationname will also reflected, if yes. you have to trim it. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_pragma_attribute_instance_path.html

Post by rmaas on TargetVisu for Linux SL not starting ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I am trying to get TargetVisu for Linux working but i am having some troubles. The problem is that after installation it is not starting automatically on boot and i cannot start it from the update Targetvisu tool. When i try i get the following error (see attached screenshot) The file /opt/codesysvisualization/scripts/codesysvisualization_start.sh is missing... Steps performed: - installed fresh Debian 12.7 on virtual machine - installed all required libraries as described here: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Control/_rtsl_target_visu_for_linux.html - then installed the TargetVisu for Linux SL 4.13.0.0 using the Codesys IDE Does someone know how i can fix this? Best Regards, Rinie

Post by balazska2 on Position values with integer variables ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello guys! https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_elem_label.html My question: Could I give an integer variable to the Position records (in the Element list => Position => width / height)? If yes, how? I defined a TEST integer variable with 300 value. I tried to add this variable to the width record (.TEST or only TEST), but if I saved, the value jumps back to 0. Thanks for your help! :)

Hello everyone, I need to migrate my existing automation projects from ISaGRAF to CODESYS, and I'm looking for guidance and the best tools and strategies to ensure a smooth transition. Are there any reliable software tools or plugins that can help the conversion? What strategies should I adopt to maintain project integrity? Thank you for the help you can provide! Mat

Post by jari-koivuluoma on Problem trying Net Base Services 3.5.15.0 TCP connection ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have a need to send messages between 2 PLCs and I cant use network variables (because of size limit) so I tried writing this simple test program. This seems to work fine. I can send messages back and forth when a first "Start server" and then "Connect client". See the attached image. However, if I disconnect the client by setting ClientConnect to false and try to re-connect then the TCP_Client just gives me TIMEOUT error. When I stop and start the server again, then Im able to reconnect. How is this supposed to work? Why reconnecting wont work. There is not other way of disconnecting the client than setting xEnable of the TCP_Client to false. This is just a testing program and I will try it on 2 seperate devices once this works. PROGRAM PLC_PRG VAR CONSTANT mySize : UDINT := 255; END_VAR VAR Server: NBS.TCP_Server; ServerIpStr: STRING := '127.0.0.1'; ServerIP: NBS.IP_ADDR; ServerPort: UINT := 50000; ServerConnection: NBS.TCP_Connection; Client: NBS.TCP_Client; ServerRead: NBS.TCP_Read; ServerWrite: NBS.TCP_Write; ServerSend: STRING(mySize); ServerReceive: STRING(mySize); ServerConnect: BOOL; bServerSend: BOOL; IP: NBS.INADDR; ConnectedClientIP: STRING; ClientPort: UINT := 50000; ClientIpStr: STRING := '192.168.1.49'; ClientIP: NBS.IP_ADDR; ClientRead: NBS.TCP_Read; ClientWrite: NBS.TCP_Write; ClientSend: STRING(mySize); ClientReceive: STRING(mySize); ClientConnect: BOOL; bClientSend: BOOL; Error: BOOL; Message: BOOL; END_VAR // Server ServerIP.sAddr := ServerIpStr; Server( ipAddr := ServerIP, uiPort := ServerPort ); ServerConnection( xEnable := Server.xEnable, hServer := Server.hServer, ); IP := ServerConnection.IPAddress; ConnectedClientIP := F_Concat7( BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b1),'.', BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b2),'.', BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b3),'.', BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b4)); ServerRead( xEnable := ServerConnection.xActive, hConnection := ServerConnection.hConnection, szSize := SIZEOF(ServerReceive), pData := ADR(ServerReceive) ); IF ServerRead.xReady AND ServerRead.szCount > 0 THEN Message := TRUE; END_IF IF ServerRead.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF ServerWrite( xExecute := ServerConnection.xActive AND bServerSend, hConnection := ServerConnection.hConnection, szSize := LEN(ServerSend)+1, pData := ADR(ServerSend) ); IF ServerWrite.xDone THEN bServerSend := FALSE; END_IF IF ServerWrite.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF // Client ClientIP.sAddr := ClientIpStr; Client( xEnable := ClientConnect, ipAddr := ClientIP, uiPort := ServerPort, udiTimeOut := 10000000 ); ClientRead( xEnable := Client.xActive, hConnection := Client.hConnection, szSize := SIZEOF(ClientReceive), pData := ADR(ClientReceive) ); IF ClientRead.xReady AND ClientRead.szCount > 0 THEN Message := TRUE; END_IF IF ClientRead.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF ClientWrite( xExecute := Client.xActive AND bClientSend, hConnection := Client.hConnection, szSize := LEN(ClientSend)+1, pData := ADR(ClientSend) ); IF ClientWrite.xDone THEN bClientSend := FALSE; END_IF IF ClientWrite.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF

Post by egau on Hard shutdown: no code on device after power on ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, We have a machine running Codesys on a Windows IPC (CODESYS Control Win v3 - x64). When we hard shutdown the machine, the code on the PLC sometimes becomes "corrupted" after a power on (When trying to login to the PLC, we get the message "The application 'Application' does not exist on device."). I've noticed these errors in the logs, but I'm not sure what to make of them. We are not using any RETAIN variables in our code, although I'm not sure about referenced librairies. (we are using the persistence manager). I'm pretty sure that not doing a graceful shutdown is the root cause of this. This being said, what is the proper way of doing a graceful shutdown? Is putting the Codesys application in "stop" sufficient? I know how to implement this, so if it works then it would be a quick fix. However, I think we need to add a UPS, which would detect power loss and inform the PLC that it needs to initiate its shutdown, and then the PLC would shutdown gracefully. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated :)

I think that the .err file is the .app file renamed by Codesys, so it is compiled. We met this behaviour one time, it was because the runtime goes in exception due to bad Ethercat cables.

Hi, thanks for the fast response :) Yes I Have a .err file. Sorry I forgot to upload it. It is a binary file though... "Runtime goes in exception before the shutdown ?" I think it goes into exception at the same time as the power is lost...

Hi, Runtime goes in exception before the shutdown ? Do you have a .err file which is created ? (located in the folder of the .app and .crc)

Hard shutdown: no code on device after power on

Post by egau on Hard shutdown: no code on device after power on ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
This explanation aligns with the issues we’re experiencing with our machines. The scenario I described is happening with one of them (let’s call it Machine A). This machine is identical to another one (Machine B), except for some custom code that facilitates communication with an external Beckhoff PLC for MES integration in the production line. Machine B has been powered on and off daily for at least three months and has never had this problem. Given that, I highly doubt the MES custom code is the cause of the code corruption. This being said, your explanation does seem plausible. However, if faulty EtherCAT cables were the issue, why wouldn't the error occur during normal operation? Why would bad cables only cause problems during a hard shutdown? One last question: When you encountered this behavior, did you see a similar error in your logs? i.e, an "AccessViolation" exception in the EtherCAT Task?
