Post by hazarath on How extract JSONElement containing Array data ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I want to extract each element of an Array. Can someone help me with this. When I use JSONElementToString (part of JSON Utilities SL), I am seeing output as "ARRAY" instead of actual data. Here is the JSON content that I want to read : { "value1Unit": { "units": "M" }, "data": { "stepSize": 300.23, "points": [6,8] } } I would like to read each item of the element "points" i.e. 6 and 8. Here is the code I used, // Reading the content as JSON reader ( xExecute := execute , pwData := ADR ( converted_value ), jsonData := jsonDataStorage ); // Get the JSON Element jsonDataStorage.FindFirstValueByKey( wsKey := fidKeyVar, diStartIndex := searchElem, jsonElement => jsonElement ); JSON.JSONElementToString ( element := jsonElement , wsResult := valueWstring ); The content of the output of valueWstring is shown as "ARRAY" instead of the array items i.e. 6 and 8 Please can someone help me.

Post by gmau on Station 'xyz': AR aborted by device (alarm.ind): AR consumer DHT expired ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I am writing to You with the problem of Profinet communication in my Codesys V2.5 SP21 project working on Codesys Control RTE V3 x64 device. I have implemented multiple Profinet devices in the network, the Profinet itself is configured properly, based on the hardware and software parameters of the industrial PC (Windows 10 IoT). My Profinet network contains such Profinet devices as a robot, IO-Link master with some devices on it, IO modules, safety, vision sensor (the configuration is attached to this topic). Once every few hours, sometimes more often, sometimes not even once a day, the error show up at one, two or a few random modules at the same time, every one is the same: "Station 'xyz': AR aborted by device (alarm.ind): AR consumer DHT expired". The communication is then lost with that module, but it is up instantly. It is not such a problem when it comes to regular IOs, but with safety or rotation table, it causes errors and machine stops. I have tried multiple solution based on any forum suggestions, manuals, etc., but it is still happening. Mabye when I turned on the Watchdog for this communication, it is happening less times, but still, I could not turning up the Watchdog parameters at the expense of cycle time of the process. The same is with Send Clock, Reduction and DHT. I have one of the ethernet port on the PC configured with CmpEt1000Drv driver. The card itself is Intel Ethernet Connection I219-LM. These devices are connected to one EKI-2728-NI-A Profinet switch (it was changed from the standard non Profinet one, but still nothing has changed). As I said ealier, I am attaching all the configurations for each device and the communication itself - if any of You had the same problems or have any ideas what could be the cause, I would be much gratefull for any help. For now I am out of ideas, if You have any additional question, please ask. Sincerely, PF

Post by paulpotat on Project size increasing continuously ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I still have the same problem with Codesys 3.5 SP18. Initially, my project is ~5 Mo. I work on it for like 3-4 days and it goes up to ~10Mo. If I make an export of the project and import it in a new empty project, it goes back to approximately 5 Mo. Why is it doing this ?

Post by totorovic on CSVReaderInit returns error : INVALID_HANDLE ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
We changed the path where the CSV file is. From intern memory of the IPC to a USB key. We still have this error 'INVALID_HANDLE'. We must restart the Codesys runtime to clear it. That is a big problem for us because machine is in production. @eschwellinger What do you mean by "this is a security issue not to read/write in the plc allowed path"

Post by exkrim19 on Unable to connect to this device ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
What worked for me with this error was to go to Tools -> Update Raspberry Pi, select Install, and from the popup screen, there are options to change your installation (I changed it to single core, instead of multicore), and I was then able to connect to my Rpi 4.

Post by kevinrn on Signing Packages without exposing the password of the certificate ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Indeed, I'm also seeking a solution for this issue. The main challenge we face is the requirement to use EV (Extended Validation) Certificates. Due to security considerations, it's not possible—nor is it ever recommended in such cases—to export the certificate with its private key.

Post by fless on SMC_NCDecoder very slow to decode lines ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I got good results with SMC_NCDecoder, SMC_CheckVelocities, etc. in a freewheeling task with lower priority (higher number). Still takes some time but I'm using many variables and loops in my g-code and more preprocessing like SMC_SmoothPath, SMC_LimitDynamics, SMC_CheckForLimits. PS: your buffer size seems a bit high for 34 lines of g-code

Post by dkugler on EtherCAT Master: How many error frames till bus error ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
The story behind: I have had a EhterCAT fieldbus system where sometimes error frames occured. I noticed that the master is tolerant for some error frames, but if there are very much error frames the bus goes in error state. Does somebody know the limit of error frames above the bus changes to error state?

Post by ekristoffe on Modbus UDP ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
UDP has no packet ordering mechanism, and Modbus protocol has no order checking mechanism nor session establishment. I'm sorry but this is false, Modbus IP based have the Transaction Identifier. Transaction Identifier - It is used for transaction pairing, the MODBUS server copies in the response the transaction identifier of the request. Modbus UDP make more sense than Modbus TCP in a local environment.

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 madskaizer on Exception when OPCUA datasource disconnects from Server ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
We have similar issues, with crashing PLCs, but this ranges from 3.5.16.40 to 3.5.19.70. Which log made you confirm the exception crash? I am currently looking for evidence of what causes our PLCs to crash. Network stability could be an issue with latest security roll-outs like 802.1X and segregation.

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.
