Post by somlioy on CODESYS Control for PFC100 SL Firmware upgrade ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi We delivered a system with a PFC100 using the CODESYS Control for PFC100 SL runtime a few years back. The system has once been decommissioned and are now to be commissioned again. Back then, there were only single licenses for the runtime. Can I now upgrade the firmware and runtime without purchasing a new license?

Post by helcioburd on How long can a WSTRING be in CodeSys V3? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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.

Post by timvh on Assignment Efficiency - Repetitive Assignment vs IF statement ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You can consider using OR_ELSE: Coils[0] := Coils[0] OR_ELSE (Buttons[0] AND Sensors[0] > 6); https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_operator_or_else.html IF Coils[0] is TRUE, then the rest is not relevant anymore and doesn't have to be evaluated anymore. PS, there is also an AND_THEN https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_operator_and_then.html

Post by peterkcontrols on Making a Visu Element normally invisible and visible if variable is true ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello I would like an element in my visu to be only visible when a certain Variable is true, currently it is only capable of being normally visible and then invisible if a certain variable is true. Is this possible without programming a new variable to be the opposite of my desired control variable? Thanks.

Hello everyone. I am using Codesys and saw in a YouTube video on the Codesys channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_l2siXY7dA) that you can create frames and move them with the mouse. However, the video does not show how to do this. Can someone please explain it to me? Thank you very much.

Thank you for your answer! I know that 0 will be the end of the string. I checked it. There is no 0 in array of bytes. I made screenshots. There is array of bytes, aborted string and the result of my test via online converter.

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

We just had this problem today when our IT updated a group policy. You need to go to Local Group Policy Editor > Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Windows Settings> Security Settings > Local Policies > Security Options. Set "System Cryptography: Use FIPS compliant algorithms for encryption, hashing, and signing" to DISABLED

Post by zoppp on Visu Frame-configuration___text will not work ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Yup, I've been having the exact same issue. A workaround that was working until Visu 4.8.0.0 was using TextList as the type in the frame configuration and then wrapping the text in quotes when configuring it. Im not sure if it will work with variables and I know it does not work if the type is text.

I have installed both the Codesys Control for Linux SL 4.16.0.0 and Target Visu for Linux 4.16.0.0 packages in Codesys 3.5 SP21 Patch2. When I try to add a target visu, it is missing. I have spent hours on this and tried different machines, all behave the same way. Is this a bug?

I have exactly the same problem and tried entering “ForceIecFilePath=0” in the file “CODESYSControl.cfg” ([SysFile]). Unfortunately, this was unsuccessful. Can anyone help in the meantime, e.g., with some sample code or with the FAQ that TimvH refers to above (link no longer works)? Many thanks and best regards

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.

Post by masmith1553 on SDO generation ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
If you add any device to the CANOpen Manager it will send messages to verify the device is on the network. Do you have the Enable expert settings check box checked in the General tab? have you added any SDOs in the SDOs tab? I avoid using the CANOpen Manager and just use the CAN_Tx and CAN_Rx blocks from the library.
