What do the details show? Is it requesting an online change or download? If the compile file is missing, it will request a download. Several things can trigger an online change, if you haven't changed the code, likely libraries. The details should provide some guidance.

I have a question for the Visu File Transfer Example. Is it possible to transfer more than one file from the plc to the webvisu with only one button click? How can i realize it?

I experienced the same problem: using __VARINFO is working only in PRG context, while it crashes if used inside Function Blocks. I would really appreciate if they would fix this issue

CODESYS Forge

Hello everyone. I hope this is the right place to ask for help, this error is causing me a great amount of time loss and I really would like to end this nightmare. I don't know why but at times if I try to Browse -> Display Cross Reference on a variable Codesys just crashes. I'll attach the file with the complete crash report hoping someone can figure why it happend. I think that the unhandled exception comes from the PersisranceManager Module and is connected with the other big problem I'm facing: I cannot refactor in my project, if I'll try to refactor a POU name the whole POU will become "frozen", it's like its desynchronizing from the project and the project cannot find the pointer to the POU once I refactor it. And when I open the project a warning pop-up will show up with the frozen POUs name, but I cannot figure out what the warning is telling me. I'll attach every warning and error pop up the project is showing me, and thanks in advance to anyone who can figure something out.

Hi kenth1973, it is not a matter of who created the function block. It is just that we don't have, and don't provide, documentation about internal implementation details... Hope you can understand that, Georg

Hello Tim, I am using CODESYS Visu V4.8.1.0. It works when I turn off the "Support client animation and overlay of native elements". But if I do that, dialog box moving and other options are also disabled so it is a bit problematic. Thank you for helping.

Post by salvatorethomas on Port instantiation of serial interface in WAGO PLC using Modb_L05.lib in CoDeSys v2.3
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
Hi β good description of the problem. A few suggestions / questions that might help narrow this down: Since your first serial port (COM2) works fine but the second (COM4 + MODBUS_EXT_MASTER) never opens, check whether the two ports are truly independent β some WAGO modules share internal resources, so COM4 might conflict with other functions or modules. Make sure that the physical wiring and module configuration for the second port (baud rate, flow control, RS-485 vs RS-422, etc.) exactly match what the library expects β a mismatch in flow control or wiring could prevent port opening even if the LED signals seem OK. Try using a plain SERIAL_INTERFACE on COM4 first (like you did for COM2) without Modbus logic β if that opens, you know the hardware + port config is fine, so the issue is more likely with modb_L05.lib. If the port opens but Modbus still fails, enable debug/logging (if available) to inspect whether the port opening fails or the subsequent Modbus negotiation fails. If you like β I can share a minimal example project I used with WAGO + COM4 + Modbus that worked; you could adapt that to test your setup. Wacky Flip

Is it possible to do non-formal invocation of function blocks in CODESYS? I get an error when I try, see the attached pic. Also attached a pic from IEC 61131-3 describing non-formal invocations.

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.
