Another way to resolve this is to set Codesys to use a specific version of the offending library under Placeholders in the Library Manager.

It is not an error, but just an information message. You need to select the correct location in your device tree where you want to import the objects. E.g. select Application below your Device.

Thank you. I didn't realize it wasn't enabled for the Pi as a whole. I enabled i2c in the terminal and things are working now.

Are these variables already declared in the IO list? It looks like it's trying to create new variables instead of mapping them to the existing ones.

Hello I need to make the Linux serial ports (ttymcx0, 1, 2 and 3) available to Codesys (Com1, 2...) Is there a guide? Is it something I do when I deploy the Codesys SL? thanks

For reference this is fixed by installing the new codesys install with a separate repository folder. Completely resolved. If anyone else sees this. I would like to know why the persistent devices repository folder does not properly retain between installs though.

Hi. Has anyone managed to implement the MDI (Manual Data Input) functionality in CODESYS CNC? I'm using SMC_StringStream2 and SMC_ReadNCFromStream, but I'm getting the error: SMC_CNC_INTERNAL_ERROR. I'd really appreciate any suggestions beyond what's already available online.

Hello, Sorry for digging this topic up, but the bitbucket link does not work anymore. Have you changed the location @mondinmr ? I would be really interested in your project, even if you did not finish it. Thank you for your time, BR

So we pay 380β¬ for SoftMotion licenses for each robot, but have to implement such an obvious use case manually without any hint in the official documentation how to achieve this. This is crazy...

in case you are using latest hw revision, there have been added some mac adresses - for the 4.17.0.0 release this might solve it. If not we need to investigate deeper. If it is application related you need to check the plclogger.

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.

The new TwinCAT 4026 will add those default parameters, as TwinCAT drinks from Codesys I guess that will be implemented soon (or maybe, it already is given what tvm says in the previous post).

Thanks for the answer. So yes I've enabled expert settings, and yes i've added some SDOs, but some of them who are generated are likely making a mess in the network and generated error with my device... From which library comes those 2 function blocks ?

To search for an exact phrase, put it in quotes. Example: "getting started docs"
To exclude a word or phrase, put a dash in front of it. Example: docs -help
To search on specific fields, use these field names instead of a general text search. You can group with AND or OR.
