Post by niloufar on Execution Order of Function Blocks ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, Our program incorporates various function blocks and programs written in different languages such as St and SFC. They implement numerous actions and methods using different languages from their function blocks. My question is whether the execution order of function blocks is associated with the programming languages used. I understand that cycle time can be configured in the task configuration, but I'm curious if there is a specific sequence order of execution for function blocks written in different languages. For example, all function blocks in (ST) are executed first, followed by the execution of (SFC). Specifically, when the function is written in (ST) and the action is implemented in (SFC). I modified all function blocks in the main PLC program and configured a task configuration for the main program.

Hi, will check the CodeSys function blocks. Didn't know those and usually the OSCAT lib is a bit more advanced. Kind regards!!

Post by ellocco on FUP: Ausgang eines existierenden Blocks mit dem Eingang eines existierenden Block verbinden ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ist es unter dem FUP-Editor von CODESYS V3.5 SP18 möglich, eine Leitungsverzweigung mit einem existierenden Block (z.B. AND-Glied) zu verbinden? Oder den Ausgang eines existierenden Blocks mit dem Eingang eines existierenden Blocks (z.B. OR-Block) zu verbinden? Gibt es dazu Vorschläge?

Post by smartcoco on Add visual background FB blocks. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Can you add a background FB block to the visualization page, and loop through this FB block when the page is in display mode. This FB block requires two more functions, one for executing when the page is displayed and the other for executing when the page is closed.

Post by trusty-squire on How to adapt Codesys Control SL to custom board ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For general usage, these links might help you out. If you are looking at using I2C interfaces, examples from the Raspberry Pi will probably be useful, even if your board isn't a Raspberry Pi. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Examples/_ex_rts_serial_com.html https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Examples/_ex_raspberry.html If you're developing your own drivers, I can't help you there, although the link you provided will help. If you drill in deeper, the I2C page for example shows function block and method usage, etc. Good luck!

Post by krisj on ScriptEngine POU property Get and Set accessor. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hey! I am trying to generate a function block with properties from a list with script engine. Codesys/ScriptEngine creates both the Get and the Set accessor. I cannot find a way to delete the Set method/accessor. Anyone encountered the same problem or have a solution for this? for prop_name, prop_type in list: property = pou.create_property(prop_name, prop_type) get = pou.find("Get", recursive=True)[i] get.textual_declaration.replace("") get.textual_implementation.replace(prop_name + " := " + struct_name + "." + prop_name + ";") set = pou.find("Set", recursive=True)[i] set.textual_declaration.replace("") set.textual_implementation.replace("") i += 1

Post by sandro66 on Application-based license Modbus Channels ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi Gatto, Using version 3.5.21.xx, it is no longer possible to use Modbus function blocks (I make extensive use of these FBs.)as shown in the example. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Examples/_ex_modbus_example.html The compiler detects one Modbus instance for each instance of the communication FB block. The example program above, although simple, reports 8 Modbus instances when compiled with the latest version. Codesys Support says that you must use fieldbus I/O mapping, but this will result in the loss of the ability to programmatically modify communication parameters. Sandro

Post by bmatlove on AXIS_REF_SM3 Error Codes? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I'm trying to firm up alarming of axis faults. Declutter the code and figure out what's what. Diving into it, I see the AXIS_REF_SM3 function block provides uiDriveInterfaceError and dwErrorId, but I can't find any significance of these further than Drive interface error number Parameter number: 1014 and Drive specific error identifier, parameter number: 1031, respectively. Is there some corresponding appendix I could use to decode these? Also, is there any relation to the Error ID (of type SMC_Error) of the MC POUs? MC_Jog, MC_Reset, MC_MoveRelative, etc? If so, are the above errors redundant? Thanks in advance.

Post by gseidel on CNC - system goes to X=0 Y=0 before CNC file execution starts, how to avoid that? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi peterned, the start position given in the CNC properties is only used if you use the compile mode OutQueue. With compile mode SMC_CNC_REF, you need to provide the start position in the IEC application. The function block SMC_NCInterpreter has an input piStartPosition. You can initialize it with the output of the forward kinematic transormation FB for your machine. In your case probably SMC_TRAFOF_Gantry2. Best regards, Georg
