the procedure is usually 1. install the Licenserver (on the host) with the deploy tool in CODESYS) 2. if you go to the CODESYS WBM you should see an empty Softcontainer 130-xxxxxx 3. activate the license with SoftContainer number and ticketnumber that was it!

In the VPLC configuration settings there is an entry for the IP address of the license server. In this setting fill in the IP address of your device (host IP address). Then when the virtual PLC starts up, it will get the license from the license container on the host. You can do this for all VPLC's running on your device. The VPLC will always take the smallest license which fits the required license. So if you have 2 licenses for VPLC's with small and large applications, then this will work fine if you start up one VPLC which requires the small license and the other which requires the large license. PS, personally I find it much easier, especially for testing and experimenting, to activate the licenses on a CODESYS (USB) key. This is easy to activate (on your development PC) and easier to move to another device. Addtionally you don't loose the license when you need to install a completely new image on the device.

I am using TargetVisu in my v3.5 sp20 p6 (64-bit) project. I see no control that will allow me to bind, edit, and display a LREAL variable. Am I missing a library? If it exists, why can't I see it?

Thank you for the reply. I got an error saying that MEM.PackBytesToWord(GVL.Actual_Speed_DUT_high,GVL.Actual_Speed_DUT_low) = u; is not a valid statement. Am I missing some library?

One option could be to use a trigger variable to execute your trace and then toggle that variable from a step within a test case.

Hi I set up my WAGO PFC200 controller and am unable to connect to the processor. Gateway is set to local host. I can connect to the unit with the WAGO Web Based management but not with Codesys V3.5 SP18.5. Any suggestion?

A task in CODESYS normally is a task of the underlying operating system. If your os is preemptive and the sheduler is configured accordingly a CODESYS task will be preemptive too.

In fact, specifying to use SM3_Basic library in version 4.14 fixes the issues, choosing 4.16 raises the same issues. (Library Manager > Place Holder > Double click on SM3_Basic > Show all versions)

Maybe try going back to step one and: Var Reg1: WORD; Reg2: WORD; Reg12: DWORD; Value: REAL; end_var // program Reg1:= 4096; Reg2:= 14884; Reg12:= (reg2 * 65536) + reg1; Value:= DWORD_TO_REAL(Reg12);

not sure on which plc you are - there might be the option with: https://forge.codesys.com/drv/sm3raspistepper/home/Home/ but it is more or less Pi restricted and need additional hardware too I guess.

Post by forest on SM Drive license error ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, when it comes about license, I used INVTmatic Studio, which uses Codesys, for programming INVT plc. I bought Codesys Modbus license, it was not expensive, and then realised that INVT didn't have License Manager option (greyed out in program) which is needed for using of Codesys License. I contacted support from INVT, but developers told me that option is still not available. So depending on environment for programming Codesys, you can or not use Modbus license. Good thing about this version of Modbus TCP it works both direction. I could send commands and receive feedbacks from drive. But communication stops after 30 mins. So I used simple version of ethernet modbus which is somewhere in INVT or Condesys library (I can check tomorrow) which works only one way. I could send cmd to drive, and control it, but didn't have any feedback, like some readings back in PLC. which is bad, but at least I could start it and it didn't fail after 30 mins.
