Maybe your question makes sense but I don't see it. Maybe you should rephrase and add a lot of detail

Post by fizzy-bubblech on 3.5 P20 hangs - no response ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Colleagues, i have the same problems. At the current time, I have to use the new version of the Codesys (3.5.20.10) + Control for Linux SL 4.11.0.0, but it works unstable : theree are a lot of freezes and not-respondings. I tested this on different projects: those that were created in the current version of the project, and those that were migrated from other versions of the development environment. Compiling a project without connecting to a controller is fast enough. The first downloading of the code into the controller, too. But as soon as you need to make edits and download a new code problems begin. Codesys "freezes" at the "Generation code" stage for 15-20 minutes. And only after that time loads the code into the controller. Previously, we used version 3.5.17.60 + Control for Linux SL 4.7.0.0. The process took 1-2 minutes. Do you have any ideas how can i fix it? I will be grateful for your answers.

the project has only one OneWire Master - so if you add the setting "PlaceholderFilePath.2=/sys/devices/w1_bus_master2, $OneWire2$ to the config file it will fail and the Ethercat task will be blocked by the OneWire Master readings?

Hi Kim, Hi eschwellinger, how you could solve the problem? I am using Codesys V3.5.19.60 and I still have the same problem. It will work only after a warm/cold restart. Thank you in advance for your kind help.

Post by gatto on Backtick identifiers ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I’m in Codesys 3.5.20.40 and I try to declare the variable ´var1´ but I get an error. here : https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_rules.html i read : Backtick identifiers By using backticks, characters can also be used in identifiers that are not normally permitted in identifiers, such as special characters. The acute accent character is used for backticks: ´ (Unicode: U+02CA) The use of backticks is recommended in order to be able to use the same identifiers in CODESYS as in other programming languages or documents, such as circuit diagrams. Any character may be used between two backticks, except line breaks and other backticks. Keywords are also allowed as identifiers between backticks. Examples: ´Variable+9´ ´INT´ The backticks are part of each identifier and therefore var1 and ´var1´ are two different identifiers. Example PROGRAM PLC_PRG VAR var1 : INT; ´var1´: INT; END_VAR var1 := var1 + 1; ´var1´ := 12; Are there any limitations or is something missing in my development environment?

Post by baott569 on CODESYS OPC UA Security: HMI Client Not Receiving Server Certificate ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello everyone, I am currently using OPC UA in CODESYS with the security mode BASIC256SHA256 – Signed and Encrypted. The OPC UA Server is running on an RTE CX device, and the HMI is running on another computer. I have reviewed many CODESYS documents and successfully established communication when the security mode is set to None with Anonymous login. However, when security is enabled, the server does not provide its certificate for the CODESYS HMI client to trust. Interestingly, the client can send its certificate to the server, and UAExpert works normally, but the CODESYS HMI client does not receive the server certificate. Can anyone help clarify what I might be missing? I have been stuck on this issue for three days. If I missed or misconfigured any step, please let me know. I believe I am stuck at step 15 in the following CODESYS guide: Encrypting the Communication of a Data Source OPC UA Client https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Communication/_cds_encrypt_communication_data_sources_opc_ua_client.html Thank you very much.
