Dear all: Question about scripting: I am creating a .NET program that is supposed to Open codesys, open template project, export a bunch of pou, then exit codesys. Launch works, Open project works, Export works, But how do i tell codesys to close itself? I can tell windows to terminate codesys, but i would prefer to do it properly. from __future__ import print_function import sys import System proj = projects.primary # We're interested in POU nodes: POUGuid = Guid("6f9dac99-8de1-4efc-8465-68ac443b7d08") # We collect all POU nodes in that list. pous = [] # From the parent node on, we recursively add POU nodes: def CollectPous(node): if node.type == POUGuid: pous.append(node) else: for child in node.get_children(): CollectPous(child) # Now we collect all the leaf nodes. for node in proj.get_children(): CollectPous(node) # We print everything just to know what's going on. for i in pous: print("found: ", i.type, i.guid, i.get_name()) # And now we export the files. for candidate in pous: # We create a list of objects to export: # The object itsself objects = [candidate] # And sub-objects (POUs can have actions, properties, ...) objects.extend(candidate.get_children()) # And the parent folders. parent = candidate.parent while ((not parent.is_root) and parent.is_folder): objects.append(parent) parent = parent.parent # Create an unique file name: if len(sys.argv) == 1: filename = "parent\\%s.export" % (candidate.get_name()) else: filename = "%s\\%s.export" % (sys.argv[1],candidate.get_name()) # print some user information print("exporting ", len(objects), " objects to: ", filename) # and actually export the project. proj.export_xml(objects, filename) proj.close() print ("script finished.") System.exit(0) // Dont work .NET: public static void Export(string path,string proj) { if (checkSettings()) { var p = new System.Diagnostics.Process(); p.StartInfo.FileName = Properties.Settings.Default.CSVersion +"\\CODESYS\\Common\\CODESYS.exe"; p.StartInfo.Arguments = " --Profile=" + qoute(Properties.Settings.Default.CSProfile) + " --culture=en" + " --project=" + qoute(path + "\\" + proj) + " --runscript=" + Properties.Settings.Default.LastOpenProjectPath + "\\INPUT_DATA\\SCRIPT\\Export.py" + " --scriptargs:" + qoute(path) ; p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false; p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = false; p.Start(); p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd(); p.CloseMainWindow(); p.Close(); } }

But still CODESYS development system reports that it needs a dongle and when I click install that "value cannot be null.

Can you confirm that CODESYS licensing works also when CODESYS is installed in a Docker container?

CODESYS Forge

Hi, under this circumstances the performance of a Raspberry Pi 4 should be sufficient to run a Softmotion robotics application. A closer look at the project would be required. Maybe you could contact the codesys support? Usually it is recommended to run the planning task cyclically every 2ms with task priority of 0 on a dedicated core. In the task configuration you can have a look at the average and maximum execution time of the planning task. You could use the function block SMC_TuneCPKernel (https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/SM3_Robotics/Current/SM3_Robotics/POUs/AdministrativeConfiguration/Computation/SMC_TuneCPKernel.html) to define suitable values for the parameters 'fSyncBufferDuration' and 'fPlanningInterval'. However, as previously mentioned, the performance of a Raspberry Pi 4 with realtime patch should be sufficient. The 'fPlanningInterval' parameter specifies the maximum planning step width in seconds. The cycle time of the planning task should not permanently exceed this value. A higher value reduces the computational effort, but can lead to a violation or no full utilization of the set limit values for velocity, acceleration and jerk. From a starting value of 0.016 seconds, the value should be increased gradually until the performance is acceptable. The parameter 'fSyncBufferDuration' specifies the size (in seconds) of the buffer between the planning and fieldbus task. The cycle time of the planning task must not exceed this value at peak times (this will lead to the error SMC_CP_QUEUE_UNDERRUN). A higher value can compensate for peaks in the cycle time of the planning task. At the same time, however, this also increases the latency for executing interrupts and aborting movements.

Post by rmarco on Generic Variables and FDB

Hello everyone, I am running into a highly frustrating issue in the FBD editor regarding a Function Block with generic constants (VAR_GENERIC CONSTANT). I created a FB using ST, with a generic var, useful for having a variable sized array, as follows: FUNCTION_BLOCK Coil VAR_GENERIC CONSTANT maxEvents: USINT := 5; END_VAR VAR events: ARRAY[0..maxEvents-1] OF IEvent; END_VAR These FBs have also several methods. I declare them as follows in code: VAR coil1: CDL.Coil<(maxEvents:=1)>; END_VAR and when using them in ST, I have no problems. However, when trying to use them in FDB, I do not know how to do that, as some strange misalignment happens. Here's what happens: When I add the block to my FBD canvas and assign coil1 as the instance name, the compiler throws this error: 'coil1' is not an instance of 'CDL.Coil<(maxEvents:=1)>'. Same occurs when I try to instantiate blocks such as 'coil1.turnOn' or similar. Here is what I have already tried, none of which worked: - Deleting the <(maxEvents:=1)> parameter from the text inside the FBD box. - Deleting the block entirely, dropping an "Empty Box", and typing coil1 above it to let the IDE auto-complete and format the block. - Running a full "Clean All" and rebuilding the code. I am aware that I could bypass the graphical editor by calling it in Structured Text. However, I need to keep this logic compatible to FBD. Has anyone encountered this specific FBD parsing bug with generic variables? Thanks in advance for any insights. Best regards, Marco

Hello, I am trying to program CAN Bus comunication on WAGO PLC (more precisely on WAGO Touch Monitor model TP600). I am using for this purpose library "WagoAppCanLayer2" from Wago company. My IDE for programming this device is CODESYS V3.5 SP19 Patch 2 + (64-bit). My program is written in Structured text using function blocks from previously mentioned library. Here is code of this program: 1) Variables declarations: PROGRAM PLC_PRG VAR oOpenInterface : WagoAppCanLayer2.FbCanL2Open :=( udiBaudrate := 125000 ); xInterfaceIsOpen : BOOL; sInterfaceInfo : STRING; oReceive : WagoAppCanLayer2.FbCanRx29BitFrame :=( xBufferMode := FALSE, wCanId := 16#181 ); xRecv : BOOL; sReceiveInfo : STRING; oSend : WagoAppCanLayer2.FbCanTx29BitFrame :=( dwCanId := 16#100, //was 16#201 xRtrFrame := FALSE ); xSend : BOOL; sSendInfo : STRING; oCanDiag : WagoAppCanLayer2.FbCanErrorInfo; xRst : BOOL; aSendData : ARRAY [1..8] OF BYTE; bSendLen : BYTE; TON_0 : TON; TON_1 : TON; END_VAR 2) Program body: oOpenInterface( xEnable := NOT xInterfaceIsOpen, I_Port := IoConfig_Globals.WAGO_CAN_LAYER2_DEVICE ); sInterfaceInfo := oOpenInterface.oStatus.GetDescription(); xInterfaceIsOpen S= oOpenInterface.xValid AND NOT oOpenInterface.xError; oReceive( xEnable := xInterfaceIsOpen, I_Port := IoConfig_Globals.WAGO_CAN_LAYER2_DEVICE, xRxTrigger := xRecv ); sReceiveInfo := oReceive.oStatus.GetDescription(); IF NOT xRecv THEN IF oReceive.bRxNBytes > 0 THEN oReceive.aRxBuffer[1]; oReceive.aRxBuffer[2]; oReceive.aRxBuffer[3]; oReceive.aRxBuffer[4]; oReceive.aRxBuffer[5]; oReceive.aRxBuffer[6]; oReceive.aRxBuffer[7]; oReceive.aRxBuffer[8]; END_IF xRecv := TRUE; END_IF aSendData[1] := 224; aSendData[2] := 13; aSendData[3] := 14; aSendData[4] := 15; aSendData[5] := 222; aSendData[6] := 13; aSendData[7] := 14; aSendData[8] := 15; bSendLen := 8; TON_0(IN:= NOT TON_1.Q, PT:= T#2S , Q=>xSend, ET=> ); TON_1(IN:= TON_0.Q, PT:= T#2S , Q=>, ET=> ); oSend( xEnable := xInterfaceIsOpen, I_Port := IoConfig_Globals.WAGO_CAN_LAYER2_DEVICE, aTxBuffer := aSendData, bTxNBytes := bSendLen, xTxTrigger := xSend ); sSendInfo := oSend.oStatus.GetDescription(); oCanDiag( xEnable := TRUE, I_Port := IoConfig_Globals.WAGO_CAN_LAYER2_DEVICE, xTriggerResetCounter := xRst, xValid=> , xError=> , oStatus=> , wBusState=> , wBusDiag=> , uiRxOverflowsL2=> , uiTxOverflowsL2=> , uiRxOverflows=> , uiMsgTimeouts=> , uiBusOffs=> , uiBusWarnings=> ); Program first opens comunication on CAN 2 device and then periodically try send one CAN data frame. After starting program CAN 2 interface is properly open. The xSend variable is toggling with period 2s. When program sends data an "Tx overflow" error appears. When I am watching CAN_H line on DSub 9 socket i am not able to see proper CAN frames - see screenshot attached to this message. Could somebody help me determine what is wrong with this program. Best regards

Hello everyone, I'm using the IoT Library to implement the MQTT communication with my local broker server in order to publish and subscribe at specifics topics to share and consume information about my application. But, it seems that are occurring some memory leak problem in a "high" frequency (more than 10 Hz) subscribe process. I follow the same method as in IoT Lib exemples, and at first looks perfect but my PLC was rebooting frequently and when I check its memory usage that was increasing as fast as the subscribe massage was sent. I'm using a WEG PLC410 and a WEG PLC500, and this error occurred in both of them (including in CODESYS Control Win x64). The application sends to the system a message JSON with the float payload Ex. {"data" : 0.8500}, but this happens with a INT, or BOL as well. I use the follow code in my application to find the value: //FindFirstValueByKey VARs PROGRAM JSON_VELO VAR //------Setting the JSON Subscriber to Set the Relay Value jsonDataVelo : JSON.JSONData; jsonByteArrayReaderVelo : JSON.JSONByteArrayReader; xST1okVelo : BOOL; FindFirstValueByKeyVelo : JSON.FindFirstValueByKey; jsonElementVelo : JSON.JSONElement; xDoneReaderVelo : BOOL; xDoneFindVelo : BOOL; //STRING and WSTRING for Subscribe the massage sPayloadJsonVelo : STRING := 'opa'; psPayloadJsonVelo : POINTER TO BYTE := ADR(sPayloadJsonVelo); //wsPayloadJsonRelaySet : WSTRING := "opa"; wsPayloadJsonVelo : WSTRING := STRING_TO_WSTRING('opa'); pwsPayloadJsonVelo : POINTER TO WORD := ADR(wsPayloadJsonVelo); lrVelo : LREAL; xKeepAliveVelo : BOOL; xSetVelo : BOOL; RSSet : RS; LIMPAR : STRING; //Find the msg end sFindVelo : STRING := '}'; psFindVelo : POINTER TO STRING := ADR(sFindVelo); iLenVelo : INT; iSizeVelo : INT := 12; udiContMsg : UDINT; END_VAR // FindFirstValueByKey CODE // Relay Set configuration xSetVelo := MQTT_SUBSCRIBER.RSVelo.Q1; IF xSetVelo THEN xKeepAliveVelo := TRUE; END_IF IF xKeepAliveVelo THEN udiContMsg := udiContMsg + 1; iLenVelo := TO_INT(StrLenA(psPayloadJsonVelo)); iSizeVelo := iLenVelo - TO_INT(MQTT_SUBSCRIBER.udiPayloadSizeVelo); StrDeleteA(psPayloadJsonVelo,iSizeVelo,iLenVelo); wsPayloadJsonVelo := STRING_TO_WSTRING(sPayloadJsonVelo); pwsPayloadJsonVelo := ADR(wsPayloadJsonVelo); //MQTT.ConvertUTF8toUTF16(sourceStart:= ADR(sPayloadJsonVelo), targetStart:= ADR(wsPayloadJsonVelo), dwTargetBufferSize:= TAM, bStrictConversion:= 1); //Reset jsonByteArrayReader jsonByteArrayReaderVelo ( xExecute := TRUE, pwData := pwsPayloadJsonVelo, jsonData := jsonDataVelo, xDone => xDoneReaderVelo ); FindFirstValueByKeyVelo( xExecute := xDoneReaderVelo, wsKey := "data", diStartIndex:= 0, jsonData := jsonDataVelo, jsonElement => jsonElementVelo, xDone => xDoneFindVelo ); IF xDoneFindVelo THEN lrVelo := jsonElementVelo.value.lrValue; //Reset jsonByteArrayReader jsonByteArrayReaderVelo ( xExecute := FALSE, pwData := pwsPayloadJsonVelo, jsonData := jsonDataVelo, xDone => xDoneReaderVelo ); FindFirstValueByKeyVelo( xExecute := FALSE, wsKey := "data", diStartIndex:= 1, jsonData := jsonDataVelo, jsonElement => jsonElementVelo, xDone => xDoneFindVelo ); xKeepAliveVelo := FALSE; GVL.xSetVeloRead := TRUE; END_IF END_IF And this to subscribe at the topic: //SUBSCRIBE VAR: //----------------- Subscribe Velocity ----------------------- MQTTSubscribeVelo : MQTT.MQTTSubscribe;//Variable MQTTSubscriber block -X - function-X wsTopicSubscribeVelo : WSTRING(1024) := "CORE/odometry/GET/data/simp"; // Topic to publish a message sSubscribeMassageVelo : STRING; udiPayloadSizeVelo : UDINT; xSDoneVelo : BOOL; xSErrorVelo : BOOL; xReceiveVelo : BOOL; eSTypeVelo : MQTT.MQTT_ERROR; eSMQTTErrorVelo : MQTT.MQTT_ERROR; RSVelo : RS; udiCont : UDINT; //SUBSCRIBE CODE: MQTTSubscribeVelo( xEnable:= MQTT_CLIENT.xConnection_Broker AND NOT xSErrorVelo AND NOT JSON_VELO.xKeepAliveVelo, pbPayload:= JSON_VELO.psPayloadJsonVelo, udiMaxPayloadSize:= SIZEOF(JSON_VELO.sPayloadJsonVelo), udiPayloadSize => udiPayloadSizeVelo, mqttClient:= MQTT_CLIENT.ClientMQTT, wsTopicFilter:=wsTopicSubscribeVelo, xDone => xSDoneVelo, xError=> xSErrorVelo, xReceived => xReceiveVelo, eMQTTError=> eSMQTTErrorVelo ); RSVelo(SET := xReceiveVelo, RESET1 := JSON_VELO.xKeepAliveVelo);

Hi, I am trying to build a CI/CD pipeline around our codesys projects. The only entry point if the git url and branch, as we do not put our project file under source control, so we needed to find a way to git clone from the python scripting engine. This is currently how we do this : system.commands["Git", "Clone"].execute( "ProjectLocation=" + project_dir, "ProjectName=" + project_file_name, "RemoteUrl=" + project_git_remote_url, "GitProjectStoragePath=" + project_git_local_dir, ) system.commands["Git", "Checkout", "Branch"].execute( "PrimaryProjectHandle=0", "BranchName=origin/" + project_git_branch ) This works fine, except that, depending on the environment and the project, the "Project Environment" popup gets displayed to suggest for some updates, and waits for a user interaction, even with the "--noUI" flag injected as parameter. I investigated the VersionUpdateFlags, but the problem is that the git clone is an atomic operation that clones and directly opens the generated project without the possibility to inject any updateFlags argument (only used in the ScripProjects.open() function. I also tried to simulate some keyboard events acknowledge the window from script but I did not find the right location for the SendKeys statement, I think before the git clone call is too early and after is too late. So I am wondering if there would be some other way to do that. Is there some more proper scripting api for the git add on ? Is there a global configuration of the VersionUpdateFlags that would allow the popup to be disabled outside from any project context ? Is there some way to automatically acknowledge this kind of messages in a "--noUI" mode ? What do you suggest ? Thanks for your help, Roland Edit : I managed to solve my problem by following these steps in my pipeline : - create a template of a project and opt file preconfigured not to open the popup - open this project - initialize an empty git repo - add the remote, fetch and checkout the needed branch -> no popup is displayed, hourra Edit2 : The initial question was raised on a CODESYS V3.5 SP18 Patch 2 profile. Since CODESYS 3.5.19.30 a scripting API is available for Codesys Git that allows cloning a project with the support of VersionUpdateFlags https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Git/_git_using_scripting.html

Hello, I have very similar problem, but it seems that your solution does not work for me. I am using TwinCAT XAE Shell v3.1.4024.55 and TwinCAT Runtime. Sorry for writing here on codesys forge, but since I found the only relevant topic here and since TwinCAT is almost the same with CODESYS in many applications, I chose to write here. I simply need to dynamically update image in visualization based on camera trigger (I am doing a machine vision application). Camera triggers an image, my program processes it (applies thresholding, draws contours etc...) and saves the processed image in the runtime location (the same one you were mentioning). This was done successfully. I need to make it work at runtime, while the program is executing and I need to refresh the image in the visualization each time camera triggers a new image and program processes it. When I create image element in the visualization and define the bitmap ID variable as STRING which contains the image ID defined in the image pool, then it displays the image in the image pool, but does not work at runtime, while the program is executing. I also used the Bitmap Version. I declared it in Global variable list as integer with initial value of 0 and wrote the variable in the bitmap version in the image element in visualization. Each time new image is saved to the runtime location, I wrote a program to increment Bitmap Version by 1. It increments and the image does not update in the visualization, unfortunately. I think that bitmap version is working correctly and deletes the cached image as it is supposed to, but the Image Pool does not update the image ID with the new image... the path to the image is always the same... only the actual image changes with the same file name. Image Pool is not dynamic and cannot refresh the image in the path to the actual one at runtime. How can I refresh the image ID in the image pool at runtime? Bitmap version only deletes cached image and reloads the image from the image ID, but the image ID has the same image, because image pool won't update at runtime. Do you know any solution to this problem?

Important: ` - Backtick - ASCII 96 ' - Apostrophe or Single Quote - ASCII 39 In the online help for some reason it renders ’ ...

Post by drbuzz on Communication Error (#0) for IFM controller
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
Hi Folks, Every time I use an IFM controller I always seem to run into a problem connecting to it. I get the Communications Error (#0). So I thought I would share some tips and tricks. Once the CANfox Cable (EC2112) cable driver is installed, you can use the yellow app in the sys tray to blink the lights on the cable. Confirm the cable works in the IFM maintenance software by connecting to the controller and reading the information on it. Make sure to download an OS into the controller (the light will go from a fast blink to solid green). In Codesys V2.3, the communication settings for the CR0401 is 250kBaud by default and Node ID 127. What got me, was I needed to reboot the computer after the cable driver install. Also if your application has canbus settings in it which are changed from default, after the controller is power cycled, the new Node ID and Baud will be in effect. I made a handy guide because too much time has been wasted on this. Programming IFM CR0401 Serial/Can Programming Cable • Connect IFM EC2112 CanFox programming cable with connector adapter. • Make sure cable is linked to VM (if using VM). • Install drivers for cable if not installed. o Download from IFM EC2112 site. https://www.ifm.com/ca/en/product/EC2112 • Once Installed, reboot computer. • In system tray, there should be a yellow icon that you can open and check on programming cable. Select the cable in the list and flash the lights to confirm it is working. Maintenance Software • Install IFM Maintenance Tool Software. o Download from IFM Site. https://www.ifm.com/ca/en/download/eco100_MaintenanceTool • Open IFM Maintenance software • Select Basic System • Select CAN cable • It will tell you if you don’t have a cable connected. • Use Wizard if needed. • Read Channel Parameter on the Settings page, or get Identity in the System Information > Identity. • Default Node is 127 on a new unit. Baud is 250kBaud (bits/sec) • Controller information should populate. • Controller green light should be blinking at 5hz (meaning OK but no OS, just bootloader). • Click Software > Load. • Open the OS file. Should match Codesys version selection (for CR0401 this is version 3). o Download OS file from IFM Website. https://www.ifm.com/ca/en/product/CR0401 o It is located at the top of the download under “software for CR0401”. o Select the file and load it… this will take a minute. • Once completed the unit should now have a solid green light o Solid green means the controller has an OS but no application is running. Codesys V2.3 Application • Codesys needs to be downloaded and installed from the IFM website as it has the IFM libraries and license to use the software. o Download from the IFM CR0401 page. o https://www.ifm.com/ca/en/product/CR0401 • Create new application with the correct IFM controller or Open Codesys application. • Keep in mind that the PLC Configuration on the Resources tab can be changed for the CAN communication interface… so changes to node and baud will take effect after the first download and reboot of the controller. • Go to “Online” in the top menu and change “Communication Parameters” o The Local dropdown shows the last configuration used. All other interfaces will show below it and need to be updated when changed or used. o Confirm Node ID is 127 for the first download. The NodeID will change to whatever the program has after (in my case 125). Node Send Offset should be default at 1536 Node Recv Offset should be default at 1408 Can bus Baudrate should be 250 kbaud. Yes to Motorola Byte Order Block Transfer should be false and note used (60 is default setting). Can Card Driver should match the systray item which is Sie_USB. • If the system populated the other one, just update and relay the communication parameters. The software will usually bring up the available cable and driver. • Go to “Online” and Login to download. o Press Yes to Download Application. I hope this helps!

Hi all, I'm looking for help with an issue I've come across while trying to facilitate Modbus communication between a WAGO PFC200 PLC using a 750-652 communication module and an iEM2050 Series Single Phase Energy Meter. I believe to have everything wired and setup correcty, but I keep running into a "Error time out" message, and by now I don't really know what else to try. My setup is as follows: A PFC200 Wago PLC, which has 2 750-652 Serial Interfaces extension modules connected to its field bus. I'm using one of these to talk to a Schneider iEM2050 - kWh-meter over modbus. I have connected terminal 23 (A) of the iEM2050 to connector 6 (A) on the 750-652. I have connected terminal 24 (B) of the iEM2050 to connector 2 (B) of the 750-652. I'm using 200mm of twisted together wires to connected them both, and I have placed a 120 ohm resistor between A and B at both ends. I've attached relevant pinout images to this post. I then wrote a simple program that configures the Mobus port, as per the datasheet of the iEM2050. You can find an image of the relavent page attached to this post too. This is my program: PROGRAM PLC_PRG VAR Master: FbMbMasterSerial; xIsConnected: BOOL; xError: BOOL; iIndex: INT := 1; xTrigger: BOOL; utQuery : typMbQuery := ( bUnitId := 1, // The Modbus unit or slave address bFunctionCode := 4, // Function code for reading input registers uiReadAddress := 1829, // adress for the Power on off counter uiReadQuantity := 1 // Quantity of registers to read ); iStep: INT; oStatusModbus: WagoSysErrorBase.FbResult; utResponseModbus: typMbResponse; xConnect: BOOL := FALSE; delayTimer: TON; END_VAR Master( xConnect:= xConnect, I_Port:= _750_652_24_1, udiBaudrate:= 9600, usiDataBits:= 8, eParity:= WagoTypesCom.eTTYParity.Even, eStopBits:= WagoTypesCom.eTTYStopBits.One, eHandshake:= WagoTypesCom.eTTYHandshake.None, ePhysical:= WagoTypesCom.eTTYPhysicalLayer.RS485_HalfDuplex, xIsConnected=> xIsConnected, xError=> xError, oStatus=> oStatusModbus, eFrameType:= WagoAppPlcModbus.eMbFrameType.RTU, tTimeOut:= T#5S, utQuery:= utQuery, xTrigger:= xTrigger, utResponse:= utResponseModbus); delayTimer(IN := TRUE, PT := T#3S); // Use the Q output of the timer to set xConnect after the delay IF delayTimer.Q THEN xConnect := TRUE; END_IF CASE iStep OF 0: //Wacht totdat de master de poort geopend heeft IF xIsConnected THEN iStep := 1; END_IF 1: //Stuur request naar de slave xTrigger := TRUE; iStep := 2; 2: //Wacht totdat de master klaar is met het afhandelen van de request IF NOT xTrigger THEN iStep := 3; END_IF END_CASE The TON delay before opening the port is due to a an error I encountered when opening it straight away. This seems to be a bug, as described here. However, the TON solved that particular issue. I tried reading multiple registers, but like I said, I still always end up with the "Error time out". What else can I test or try at this point?

Post by thejesh on WebVisu: switch-frame destroys and rebuilds referenced visualization - is retention configurable?
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
Hi, HTML5 Conrtrol elements on CODESYS V3.5 SP22 Patch 2, WebVisu only (no TargetVisu). The client is Chromium 147 in kiosk mode on a Raspberry Pi CM5 panel; the runtime is CODESYS Control Win V3 x64/CODESYS Control RTE V3 x64 on a separate IPC. I have measured that changing a Frame element's switch-frame variable destroys the currently referenced visualization and fully rebuilds it on return, including all embedded HTML5 controls. We would like to know whether this lifecycle is configurable. Measurement 1: Curently, our production page contains a good number of custom HTML5 controls and will only increase , each of which the WebVisu client instantiates as a separate about:srcdoc iframe. I counted live targets via the Chromium remote debugging endpoint (curl http://localhost:9222/json/list) before and after switching. Production displayed (index 0) 108 iframes Switched to a light page (index 1) 46 iframes Switched back to Production 108 iframes 62 controls are destroyed on leaving the page and re-instantiated on return. Observed latency was approximately 2.5 -5s away from the heavy page and approximately 4.0 -5 s back to it. This was measured with the panel otherwise idle: 2.8% system CPU, 97.1% idle, 2 h 56 min uptime, no remote-desktop session running, hardware acceleration confirmed active in chrome://gpu. I had previously measured the same behaviour under a much higher CPU load and have since resolved that load separately (VISU_TASK cycle period), so I am confident the rebuild is the frame lifecycle itself and not CPU starvation. Measurement 2 — frame offset instead of switch index I then displayed the same overlay page by a different mechanism. Instead of using a switch-frame index, I placed the page in a fixed Frame parked off-screen below the visible canvas, and drive its Y offset from an INT in Structured Text to move it into view. With this approach the overlay appears immediately, the production page underneath is never torn down and keeps updating, and no visualization is destroyed or rebuilt in either direction. The iframe count does not change at any point. This is the same visualization, containing the same HTML5 controls, as in Measurement 1 — the only difference is how it is brought on screen. So the rebuild appears to be a property of the switch-frame mechanism specifically, not of the page or its control count. Questions: Is the destroy-and-rebuild behavior on switch-frame the intended and documented lifecycle for WebVisu? Is there any setting, property or client option that causes a referenced visualization to remain instantiated when it is not the active index — the equivalent of keeping it mounted but not displayed? Does the runtime or client offer any form of caching or pre-instantiation for referenced visualizations, so that a return switch does not pay the full construction cost? Is the cost specific to HTML5 controls, or would the same rebuild occur with an equivalent number of native visualization elements? We ask because it would inform whether reducing our HTML5 control count is a viable solution. Is there a recommended pattern for showing a full-screen page over a live production screen without tearing the production screen down? My current workaround is to keep every page permanently instantiated and move it on and off screen by driving a frame offset variable, which avoids the rebuild entirely but means every page stays live and consumes client resources for the life of the session. This works, but I would prefer to use the supported mechanism if one exists. Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Post by clesio on CAA.File.Write – Unexpected characters when writing a CSV file

Hello everyone, I am trying to create a routine in CODESYS to export a report to a CSV file using the CAA.File library. The file is created successfully, but I am getting some unexpected/unknown characters in the generated CSV. The problem seems to be related to the SIZEOF() function. I am using it for the szSize parameter of File.Write, as recommended in the CODESYS documentation. However, when I use SIZEOF(), the CSV contains extra characters and parts of previous strings. I also tried using LEN(), but in my application the file is created empty, even though the string and the calculated length appear to be correct. Here is the relevant part of my code: PROGRAM Relatorio VAR // Bool b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo : BOOL; b_Executa_fb_Fecha_Arquivo : BOOL; b_Escreve_dados : BOOL; b_Erro_fb_Escreve : BOOL; //STR s_Nome_Arquivo : STRING; s_Palavra : STRING; s_Palavra_Anterior : STRING; s_Data_Atualizada_Formatada : STRING; s_Dia : STRING; s_Mes : STRING; s_Ano : STRING; s_Hora_Atualizada_Formatada : STRING; s_Hora : STRING; s_Minu : STRING; s_Segu : STRING; //INT i_modo_fb_Cria_Arquivo : INT; i_ErroID_fb_Escreve : INT; //UINT i_Tamanho_Palavra : UINT; // Blocos de Funcao fb_Cria_Arquivo : FILE.Open; fb_Fecha_Arquivo : FILE.Close; fb_Escreve : FILE.Write; // DATA E HORA sc_DataTime : SysTimeRtc.RTS_SYSTIMEDATE; // STRUCT = sc uidResultRtcGet : UDINT; //stGetDate : SysTimeRtc.RTS_SYSTIMEDATE; uidResultConvertToDate : UDINT; uidResult : RTS_IEC_RESULT; END_VAR VAR_INPUT //BOOL b_SET_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo : BOOL; b_RES_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo : BOOL; b_Executa_fb_Escrita : BOOL; // INT i_Linhas_Cabecalho : INT; i_Linhas_Cabecalho_Anterior : INT; END_VAR // Para Testes s_Nome_Arquivo := 'relatorio/Teste1M.CSV'; i_modo_fb_Cria_Arquivo := 0; // TRATAMENTO DE DATOS DATA e HORA uidResultRtcGet := SysTimeRtcGet(uidResult); uidResultConvertToDate := SysTimeRtcConvertUtcToDate(dwTimestampUtc := uidResultRtcGet, pDate := sc_DataTime); // FORMATA DATA EM UMA STRING s_Dia := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wDay); s_Mes := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wMonth); s_Ano := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wYear); s_Data_Atualizada_Formatada := CONCAT(s_Dia, CONCAT('/', CONCAT(s_Mes, CONCAT('/', s_Ano)))); // FORMATA HORA EM UMA STRING s_Hora := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wHour); s_Minu := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wMinute); s_Segu := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wSecond); s_Hora_Atualizada_Formatada := CONCAT(s_Hora, CONCAT(':', CONCAT(s_Minu, CONCAT(':', s_Segu)))); // ABRE e CRIA ARQUIVO IF (b_SET_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo OR b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo) AND NOT(b_RES_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo) THEN b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo := TRUE; ELSE b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo := FALSE; END_IF fb_Cria_Arquivo( xExecute := b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo, sFileName := s_Nome_Arquivo, eFileMode := i_modo_fb_Cria_Arquivo, xExclusive := FALSE, ); //i_Tamanho_Palavra := SizeOf(s_Palavra); // ESCREVE NO ARQUIVO fb_Escreve( xExecute := b_Executa_fb_Escrita, hFile := fb_Cria_arquivo.hFile, szSize := SIZEOF(s_Palavra), pBuffer := ADR(s_palavra) ); // FECHA ARQUIVO fb_Fecha_Arquivo( xExecute := b_Executa_fb_Fecha_Arquivo, hFile := fb_Cria_arquivo.hFile ); IF Criacao_Edicao_Arquivos.b_Escreve_Cabecalho THEN CASE i_Linhas_Cabecalho OF 1 : s_palavra := 'ESTERILIZADOR'; 2: s_palavra := 'MAQ4; $R$L'; 3: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('CLIENTE: ',GVL.sReceitaAtual), '$R$L'); 4: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('NUMERO LOTE: ',DINT_TO_STRING(GVL.Lote)), '$R$L'); 5: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('OPERADOR: ', DINT_TO_STRING(GVL.Operador)), '$R$L'); 6: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('DATA: ', s_Data_Atualizada_Formatada), '$R$L'); 7: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('HORA: ', s_Hora_Atualizada_Formatada), '$R$L'); 8: s_palavra := '$R$L'; 9: s_palavra := 'PARAMETROS AJUSTADOS $R$L'; 10: s_palavra := CONCAT('TEMPO PRE COND.: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_T_PreCondicionamento), ' min $R$L')); 11: s_palavra := CONCAT('PULSOS INERTIZACAO 1: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PulsosInertizacao_1), ' PULSOS $R$L')); 12: s_palavra := CONCAT('PULSOS INERTIZACAO 2: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PulsosInertizacao_2), ' PULSOS $R$L')); 13: s_palavra := CONCAT('PULSOS AERACAO: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PulsosAeracao_2), ' PULSOS $R$L')); 14: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO DE VACUO 1: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PV1_max), ' bar $R$L')); 15: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO DE VACUO 2: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PV2), ' bar $R$L')); 16: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO INERTIZACAO 1: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PN1), ' bar $R$L')); 17: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO INERTIZACAO 2: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PN2), ' bar $R$L')); 18: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO AERACAO: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PAR), ' bar $R$L')); 19: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO ETO: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PressaoETO), ' bar $R$L')); 20: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO Compl.: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PressaoETO_2), ' bar $R$L')); 21: s_palavra := CONCAT('MASSA ETO: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_QuantidadeETO), ' Kg $R$L')); 22: s_palavra := CONCAT('TEMPO PRE COND.

I have omitted this part to keep the example focused on the CSV writing routine. The function blocks are triggered and managed by a separate state machine. I am not sure what the correct approach is in this case, especially since the official documentation recommends using SIZEOF() for szSize. I will attach my code and a screenshot of the generated CSV showing the issue. Has anyone experienced something similar or could suggest the correct way to write a changing STRING to a CSV file using CAA.File.Write?

Here is the relevant part of my code: PROGRAM Relatorio VAR // Bool b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo : BOOL; b_Executa_fb_Fecha_Arquivo : BOOL; b_Escreve_dados : BOOL; b_Erro_fb_Escreve : BOOL; //STR s_Nome_Arquivo : STRING; s_Palavra : STRING; s_Palavra_Anterior : STRING; s_Data_Atualizada_Formatada : STRING; s_Dia : STRING; s_Mes : STRING; s_Ano : STRING; s_Hora_Atualizada_Formatada : STRING; s_Hora : STRING; s_Minu : STRING; s_Segu : STRING; //INT i_modo_fb_Cria_Arquivo : INT; i_ErroID_fb_Escreve : INT; //UINT i_Tamanho_Palavra : UINT; // Blocos de Funcao fb_Cria_Arquivo : FILE.Open; fb_Fecha_Arquivo : FILE.Close; fb_Escreve : FILE.Write; // DATA E HORA sc_DataTime : SysTimeRtc.RTS_SYSTIMEDATE; // STRUCT = sc uidResultRtcGet : UDINT; //stGetDate : SysTimeRtc.RTS_SYSTIMEDATE; uidResultConvertToDate : UDINT; uidResult : RTS_IEC_RESULT; END_VAR VAR_INPUT //BOOL b_SET_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo : BOOL; b_RES_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo : BOOL; b_Executa_fb_Escrita : BOOL; // INT i_Linhas_Cabecalho : INT; i_Linhas_Cabecalho_Anterior : INT; END_VAR // Para Testes s_Nome_Arquivo := 'relatorio/Teste1M.CSV'; i_modo_fb_Cria_Arquivo := 0; // TRATAMENTO DE DATOS DATA e HORA uidResultRtcGet := SysTimeRtcGet(uidResult); uidResultConvertToDate := SysTimeRtcConvertUtcToDate(dwTimestampUtc := uidResultRtcGet, pDate := sc_DataTime); // FORMATA DATA EM UMA STRING s_Dia := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wDay); s_Mes := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wMonth); s_Ano := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wYear); s_Data_Atualizada_Formatada := CONCAT(s_Dia, CONCAT('/', CONCAT(s_Mes, CONCAT('/', s_Ano)))); // FORMATA HORA EM UMA STRING s_Hora := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wHour); s_Minu := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wMinute); s_Segu := UINT_TO_STRING(sc_DataTime.wSecond); s_Hora_Atualizada_Formatada := CONCAT(s_Hora, CONCAT(':', CONCAT(s_Minu, CONCAT(':', s_Segu)))); // ABRE e CRIA ARQUIVO IF (b_SET_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo OR b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo) AND NOT(b_RES_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo) THEN b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo := TRUE; ELSE b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo := FALSE; END_IF fb_Cria_Arquivo( xExecute := b_Executa_fb_Cria_Arquivo, sFileName := s_Nome_Arquivo, eFileMode := i_modo_fb_Cria_Arquivo, xExclusive := FALSE, ); //i_Tamanho_Palavra := SizeOf(s_Palavra); // ESCREVE NO ARQUIVO fb_Escreve( xExecute := b_Executa_fb_Escrita, hFile := fb_Cria_arquivo.hFile, szSize := SIZEOF(s_Palavra), pBuffer := ADR(s_palavra) ); // FECHA ARQUIVO fb_Fecha_Arquivo( xExecute := b_Executa_fb_Fecha_Arquivo, hFile := fb_Cria_arquivo.hFile ); IF Criacao_Edicao_Arquivos.b_Escreve_Cabecalho THEN CASE i_Linhas_Cabecalho OF 1 : s_palavra := 'ESTERILIZADOR'; 2: s_palavra := 'MAQ4; $R$L'; 3: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('CLIENTE: ',GVL.sReceitaAtual), '$R$L'); 4: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('NUMERO LOTE: ',DINT_TO_STRING(GVL.Lote)), '$R$L'); 5: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('OPERADOR: ', DINT_TO_STRING(GVL.Operador)), '$R$L'); 6: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('DATA: ', s_Data_Atualizada_Formatada), '$R$L'); 7: s_palavra := CONCAT(CONCAT('HORA: ', s_Hora_Atualizada_Formatada), '$R$L'); 8: s_palavra := '$R$L'; 9: s_palavra := 'PARAMETROS AJUSTADOS $R$L'; 10: s_palavra := CONCAT('TEMPO PRE COND.: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_T_PreCondicionamento), ' min $R$L')); 11: s_palavra := CONCAT('PULSOS INERTIZACAO 1: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PulsosInertizacao_1), ' PULSOS $R$L')); 12: s_palavra := CONCAT('PULSOS INERTIZACAO 2: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PulsosInertizacao_2), ' PULSOS $R$L')); 13: s_palavra := CONCAT('PULSOS AERACAO: ', CONCAT(INT_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PulsosAeracao_2), ' PULSOS $R$L')); 14: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO DE VACUO 1: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PV1_max), ' bar $R$L')); 15: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO DE VACUO 2: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PV2), ' bar $R$L')); 16: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO INERTIZACAO 1: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PN1), ' bar $R$L')); 17: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO INERTIZACAO 2: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PN2), ' bar $R$L')); 18: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO AERACAO: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PAR), ' bar $R$L')); 19: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO ETO: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PressaoETO), ' bar $R$L')); 20: s_palavra := CONCAT('PRESSAO Compl.: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_PressaoETO_2), ' bar $R$L')); 21: s_palavra := CONCAT('MASSA ETO: ', CONCAT(REAL_TO_STRING(GVL.rc_QuantidadeETO), ' Kg $R$L')); 22: s_palavra := CONCAT('TEMPO PRE COND.

I have omitted this part to keep the example focused on the CSV writing routine. The function blocks are triggered and managed by a separate state machine. I am not sure what the correct approach is in this case, especially since the official documentation recommends using SIZEOF() for szSize. I will attach my code and a screenshot of the generated CSV showing the issue. Has anyone experienced something similar or could suggest the correct way to write a changing STRING to a CSV file using CAA.File.Write?

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.
