Post by imdatatas on The default ramp type selection in SoftMotion V4.18.0.0 is Quadratic ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Dear @gseidel, @tk096, I noticed that with SoftMotion V4.18.0.0, if a new axis is added to the project, the ramp type selection defaults to "Quadratic". In all previous versions, the velocity ramp type selection was "Trapezoidal". This causes some unexpected issues in projects with SoftMotion version V4.18.0.0 for newly created or newly added axes to existing projects. Is it possible to reconsider this situation in the next update and set the velocity ramp type to "Trapezoid" by default again? Best Regards, Imdat

Post by remcoborghuis on C0032 Error to type Pointer to IoConfigParameter ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi All, I'm using codesys on a raspberry PI. I use V3.5 SP18 Patch 2 development system and codesys for raspberry pi 4.8.0.0. Sometimes when I build the project I get error messages C0007: Expression expected instead of ',' and C0032: Cannot convert type 'Unknow type: '!!!'ERROR'!!!" to type 'POINTER TO IoConfigParameter'. I can't click on the message to bring me to the fault. After I do a "Clean all" the build finishes successful. Anyone who can help me with this problem? Thanks! Remco Borghuis

Post by seler on Custom button with output status ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Just to clarify. Output for lamp will have two inputs: from plc IN (wall switch) and from visu button. Until now I had separate object for visu button and separate for visu lamp. Now I want it to be one object, bulb icone which will change color on lamp status and yet by touching it will change visu button state. Tried "Switch Image" object but there is no way to assign switch var.

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 jerry-sorrells on Find Function: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Build: CODESYS 3.5 SP19 Patch 1 (64-bit) Host OS: Windows 10 Target: Linux SL I have a project with programs in Structured Text and Ladder Diagram. When I try to use the Find function, it works for the Active Editor; however, when I try to use Find for the Entire Project, I get the error "Object reference not set to the instance of an object." I know what this error means in the context of the program, but I have no idea why the find function is returning this error. The variable I am searching does not matter: it happens with all variables. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated. I generally use the Find function quite often as I am developing and not having it is really slowing me down.

Post by timvh on PLCOpenXML Export/Import with Visualisation ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
A Task is a standard IEC 61131-3 object, so logically that you can export the VISU_TASK. A visualization is no standard IEC 61131-3 object, so not compatible with other IEC tools. Just use the standard export / import functionality. These files are not IEC compatible and can only be used in CODESYS. But these do support visu objects.

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.

Post by manuknecht on FileDialog - OnDialogClosed not called anymore ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I had similar issues with the OnDialogClosed not being called. I realized that this behaviour is resolved, when the according visualization object on which the input configuration is set is moved to the foreground. Somehow, the object has to be one of the lowest elements in the Element List (i.e. in the foreground) for it to work.

Post by felipemsgarcia on Generic EtherCAT slave ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello Edwin, Thank you foryour answer but, I believe I was not very clear in my question, sorry. What I wanted to know is if there is a generic EtherCAT slave object already in CODESYS that I can use for anything, remote IO, Drives, VFD's and so on, as long as I match PDO's. Is there such an object? Thank you again!
