Post by mubeta on UNION statement is not supported in the ethercat data exchange ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi all, I am using a unionn statement for merge in integer data type some values that are received in byte from the i/o cards, but, using this simple and light technique, is not recognized by the ethercat data exchange and in fact the tags are not updated. In my opinion it's a very big bug.

Hi, I've never used Communication Manager, but I tried it and I saw that I can drag tags from left to right. If I click on a line on the right, it turns light blue. By pressing the DEL or CANC key (It depends on your keyboard language) I can delete the line

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.

I'm also seeing this issue, my instances of the frame will date but not for new parameters that I add to it. Has anyone seen a fix or a way to force the parameter update other than recreating all the frame instances?

This is a homing routine which is controlled by setting mode of operation and started by setting a bit in the control word. If MC_Home is not usable for this homing method then I need to implement the same functionality. But how?

I have on my Pi successfully deployed an application to which with composer AC_Datalog is added. It starts logging automatically. I want a Visualization with a start/stop button controlling the logging. That must be easy. How do I do that?

I'm trying to open the VisuDialogs.Numpad dialog to enter a new temperature setpoint on one of my VISU screens. For some reason, the numpad dialog does not appear as an option in the Open Dialog dropdown in my input configuration. I'm very new to CODESYS, so sorry if this is a simple fix/known item XD.

Hi, which CODESYS Version are you using exactly? Either update to 3.5.21.x if you are on 3.5.20.x if not - add a more secure pw. Seems that on adding the login credentials it is mandatory in 4.16.0.0 -to have complianct to password policy seems a bug that the message not occure.

Hello everyone, I was just wondering if anybody knows if there's a way to pull the string name of the current visualization without using the current visu variable. I'm working on a project where we don't want web clients to change the current visualization on the HMI of the machine. Thanks!!

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?

Hi liai, is it possible, that SM3_Basic is missing in the library manager? (It should be inserted automatically when adding a Cam table, along with the other motion libs.) You can add it manually and see if that solves the compile errors. Best regards, Georg

Ok, this is how I made a numeric text field: use a Text Field properties -> Texts -> Text := %f (or %d or whatever you need) properties -> Text variables -> Text variable := (your numeric variable) properties -> Input configuration -> OnMouseDown -> Configure: Write Variable Input type := VisuDialogs.Numpad Use another variable (your numeric variable) Min val Max val etc. Please tell me there is an easier way to do this.

Hello. I created a project that uses SPI. This project is working well. I can see with an oscilloscope that the SPI pins are actually changing. But when I resave this project in the IDE and open it later in the system, I see a constant error. What do I need to fix? What am I doing wrong? Thank you.

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.

Hi, When I'm adding a CANOpen device in my WAGO CANOpen Manager, CODESYS automaticaly generates some SDO's that I can't directly disable. From what those SDO's are generated ? I'm not finding anything about it in the EDS files. Also, is there a way to disable the automaticaly generated SDO and execute the manualy created ones ? Regards, Florian

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.

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.
