Post by durstloescher on Codesys Input Detector ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Good morning, I am currently working on implementing a display dimmer. I want the display to dim after X minutes. This works so far. The implementation is done via the Linux subsystem, to which a command is sent to dim the display. However, my problem is resetting the timer when input is received. I want the dimming timer to be reset with each click/touch. Unfortunately, I can't find a suitable solution for this. Are there any ways to do this? Codesys v3.5 SP19 Patch 2

Hello, I have a counter that increments an INT value once per minute I want to display this value in Minutes until 60, then Hours/Minutes thereafter on the HMI Codesys V3.5 SP16 I can divide the minutes by 60 to get hours, but then the minutes is still more than 60. Example: a process has run for 350 Minutes. I need to display "5 Hours 50 Minutes" But if it's only been 45 Minutes, I don't want "0 Hours 45 Minutes" , just "45 Minutes"

Post by gseidel on Using an Axis of an Axis Group in Torque Conctrol ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi manuknecht, the axis group currently always writes the axis set torque values. If no dynamic model has been configured for the axis group, then the set torques are written to 0. The solution for your use case is to call SMC_GroupUpdate [0] before you call SMC_SetTorque on the axes. This way, the axis group will write 0 to the set torques in the call to SMC_GroupUpdate(), and SMC_SetTorque then will write the desired set torque. Best regards, Georg [0] https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/SM3_Robotics/Current/SM3_Robotics/POUs/AdministrativeConfiguration/Computation/SMC_GroupUpdate.html

Post by hannibal on Codesys Trend - setting Y axis minimum and maximum as variables - error ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am experiencing an issue when trying to define the Y-axis limits in a Trend Graphic using variables. When I set the Minimum and Maximum values as variables, an error is triggered. My goal is to make the Y-axis limits dynamic so they can adjust according to the installation. Both variables are initialized as follows: gP_YMin = -100.0 gP_YMax = 100.0 However, I still get the following error: "The minimum axis value must be less than the maximum axis value" Does anyone have an idea why this is happening or how to resolve it?

Hello, the task is not entirely clear. You can make it a dial indicator or a loading slider.

You could use the function AppGetApplicationInfo from CmpApp library. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/CmpApp/Current/AppGetApplicationInfo.html

You could use the Modulo function to get the minute part from the total minutes: Minutes := TotalMinutes MOD 60;

Post by snhatton on Alarm Management - latched variable represented as Text list ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi There, For my understanding: are you trying to display the contents of a text list in an alarm message based on the id? For example, you could maintain a text list of common alarm messages, and then display based on which message is true?

Hello, I have the same issue with my cMT display. I know it's a communications issue with my Eurotherm E+PLC400 PLC using the Codesys V3 driver. Were you ever able to figure out what the problem was and if so, what was your fix. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i need help creating a digital clock in CODESYS that should be displyed on a Raspberry Pi LCD Display trough the Visualization built in CODESYS. I have an idea how to display the time by making a 7 Segment Dysplay in the Visu. But I don't know how to get the actual time into the program. Can anyone help?

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.

Hello, For my delta robot i wil use the MC_MoveCirvularAbslolute function. Every time that i set the execute of this function has my Axis group a error. Thats is: The dynamic limits for the movement are invalid. What can i do that this error go away? I saw a view funcitons with limit dymanics but i don't now how they work. If i use the function MC_MoveLinearAbsolute than i have no error. Does anyone know how i fix this?

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

why not simply converting data type UINT to INT? Then avoid negative values with ... := MAX(0 , intTest); Good luck!
