Post by seesle on Extracting information out of a *.library or *.compiled-library file ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hey there, is there a way to extract any data out of a .library or a .compiled-library file? Do you have any tools or a description of the binary or something like this to get for example the referenced libraries of a *.library file or any other stuff? Thx in advance M.

Hi Sir Kevin. May I know how you came up with this solution. Im a bit confused but I tried to put this. [SysCom] Linux.Devicefile=/dev/ttyRS48 (remember, no 5 at the end!) then set com port in codesys to 6. It also works for me but want to know where did you get this. Thank you.

Ich würde gerne bestimmt Modbus RTU Slave Adressen auslesen, leider bekomme ich keine Werte vom Bus. Verbindung erfolgt über einen Raspberry mit Modbus RS485 Adapter, welcher erfolgreich verbunden ist. Mit einem IOBroker kann ich die Daten erfolgreich auslesen. In der Modbus_COM_Port => Modbus_Serial_Device habe ich Input Register 4000 %QW und Startadressen auf Input Register 3000, als Variable ein Array[0..2999] of Word, kann aber keine Werte auslesen.

There is a tool called test manager that is part of the Professional Developer's Edition of CODESYS. I would take a look at this tool for your testing purposes. There is a free 30-day trial so you can evaluate if the tool will meet your needs before investing in the license.

Post by ph0010421 on TCP/IP client ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello TCIS_Send needs to be longer than 4 bytes because idata is 28 bytes long. There may be other ways, but I would make a UNION with string/array of bytes. Write your STRING into the AsString part then copy the AsBytes part into TCIS_Send (Elements [3] to [30]) then 252 would be in [31] (I've assumed the idata is always the same length)

Try changing the port mode to digital input for each port you want to have 2 inputs in the connection settings for the device. I've successfully used ports for inputs on an AL1920 this way, I think the procedure should be the same for an AL1332.

Post by patrick on Version 3.5.19.40 probleme bei FUN mit _to_ im Name ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ich bin leider auch über den Fehler gestolpert, aber selbst in Version 3.5.19.50 ist dieser noch enthalten. Bis 3.5.19.20 kann ich meine Programme noch nutzen. Ab 3.5.19.30 ist der Fehler anscheinend vorhanden. Ich habe leider auch schon einen Haufen Programme mit meiner Library erstellt, somit wäre ein umbenennen nur mit sehr viel aufwand möglich.

Hi all, I am currently working on a project where I need to save data automatically on many diffrent USB-Sticks, which are always plugged in the same USB-Port on a Rasberry PI, but I do not get how I can automatically detect the USB devices Folder Name and save a file there on Linux. Thanks!

Just verified the behaviour. Still is the same. It should be attached here. But I also tried the DCF-file with the axis in the lab with the real drive: The MC_Power block never goes out of busy. Had not time to investigate further, though.

Post by anderson on function block output ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
so it is not possible for me to use the function blocks and through them I can select the digital outputs of the PLC so that pulses and direction are output, or some function block that does this reading and in it I can program the pulse and direction outputs for the drive?

Post by lgeertsema on Checkbox font color in visualization style ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I'm having a similar issue with buttons. I want to be able to set the default color and transparency of a button. I've tried a lot of different iterations like KNewman, but to no avail. Has there been some documentation released since KNewman posted this, or is the style editor still as undocumented as ever?

Post by smartcoco on Add visual background FB blocks. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Can you add a background FB block to the visualization page, and loop through this FB block when the page is in display mode. This FB block requires two more functions, one for executing when the page is displayed and the other for executing when the page is closed.

Have you found a solution for this? Id be thankful for every hint. I have a controller with the same events in log and sometimes it crashes. Memory of the codesys3 task rises until the linux system kills the task because the controller runs out of memory.

Post by alexgooi on How to protect library project? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi aniket-b, If you save the library as a compiled library you are not able to see the source code. When the end user tries to view inside the object, CODESYS will give a notification that the source code is missing, see attachment. In short if you don't send the source code, it will not show.

Hi Martin, I got the messagekey of the "upgrade format warning dialog" with key:"<< No Key>>". (please refer to the attachment) Is that means i can't use system.prompt_answers["<<No Key>>"] = PromptResult.OK; to auto-answer 'OK' in this dialog? Is there any other way to auto-answer this dialog? Thanks!

Post by wiresplus on Connect to remote PLC via local pc and teamviewer ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, Depends on the architecture of your PLC. If the PLC is a PC-based item with a normal desktop environment, then you probably can. I find it simpler to install an IIoT Router in the panel, and use an encripted VPN to link to my office PC / Laptop on demand.

The "remove unused" parameters have been added to 1.0 version as well as the "manual" removal of pins... also allowed "empty" inputs for blocks is in and the compile error described there should no longer occurs. Drag drop of variables is not yet implemented and I don't think the double-click feature yet either.

Post by davidbo on i2c How does CODESYS handle exception or error messages. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For Raspberry Pi I have made a python script which regularly read a bulk of data over the ic2 from a device. Sometimes I get an Exception an IOError. I assume similar things can happen in CODESYS. So how does CODESYS handle that? Can I get any info about such an event?

Post by rmaas on Direct Pointers in IOMapping for EtherCAT with IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave_Dia ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, Im not sure if this is what you mean, but i do succesfully use the IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave.InputData and IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave.OutputData to read from and write to beckhoff DI and DO cards. Very convenient as you can make an FB with an VAR_IN_OUT of type IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave and only have to pass the slave reference... So i am not using .ETCSlave_Diag but .ETCSlave...

Thank you for the response! It's a path I had already considered, however, while it has always worked for me on inputs, it doesn't on outputs, because if I enable the option to update all IOs at every scan, the IO tasks overwrite each other. However, I have found something very interesting which I am posting below.
