Post by matteodigani on Error using function block "Write alias address" ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I've got a problem using the function block "Write alias address" (ETCStack library 4.9.0.0). this is the code: EtherCAT_1(); IF EtherCAT_1.ConfigRead AND enable THEN CASE seq OF 0: exec := FALSE; T.IN := TRUE; T.PT := T#10S; T(); IF T.Q THEN seq := 1; T.IN := FALSE; END_IF ; 1: T.IN := FALSE; T(); //THIS ONE WORK CORRECTLY! WrAliasAdd.xAbort := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.usiCom := DWORD_TO_USINT(EtherCAT_1.InstanceNumber); WrAliasAdd.wSlaveAddress := 1002; WrAliasAdd.xAutoIncAdr := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.uiAliasAddress := 19; WrAliasAdd.udiTimeOut := 3000; IF start THEN exec := TRUE; ELSE IF NOT error THEN start := TRUE; END_IF END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xDone THEN start := FALSE; done := TRUE; error := FALSE; exec := FALSE; seq := 5; END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xError THEN start := FALSE; done := FALSE; error := TRUE; exec := FALSE; END_IF ; 5: exec := FALSE; T.IN := TRUE; T.PT := T#1S; T(); IF T.Q THEN seq := 10; END_IF ; 10: T.IN := FALSE; T(); //THIS ONE GIVES ME AN ERROR! WrAliasAdd.xAbort := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.usiCom := DWORD_TO_USINT(EtherCAT_1.InstanceNumber); WrAliasAdd.wSlaveAddress := 1006; WrAliasAdd.xAutoIncAdr := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.uiAliasAddress := 25; WrAliasAdd.udiTimeOut := 1000; IF start THEN exec := TRUE; ELSE IF NOT error THEN start := TRUE; END_IF END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xDone THEN start := FALSE; done := TRUE; error := FALSE; exec := FALSE; seq := 99; END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xError THEN start := FALSE; done := FALSE; error := TRUE; exec := FALSE; END_IF ; ELSE ; END_CASE WrAliasAdd(xExecute := exec); END_IF The first one slave ethercat works correctly, but the other one gives me an error. Attached the ethercat configuration of the devices. All the devices are set "Optional". So my idea is to enable only the first one (1002) and the fifth one (1006).

Post by e13740e on Сalling the context menu from the keyboard ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello. I have a question for you, perhaps you have an answer to it. Regarding calling the Context menu from the keyboard in Devices, specifically calling the context menu window from the keyboard via an assigned combination. Goal: to have the ability to navigationally add internal Objects (Methods, Properties) to Function Blocks from the keyboard without using the mouse. The Codesys environment interface does not allow Windows access to this via Shift+F10. Externally (outside the Codesys environment), the hotkey call for the context menu (Shift+F10) from the keyboard works in various environments, but at the same time, in Codesys it does not (it doesn't work). I have already tried various options on my own to achieve this (but unsuccessfully): Tools\Customize\Keyboard\Objects (the set combination does not give the desired result) Tools\Customize\Keyboard\Objects... (the set combination is extremely useful as it provides access to adding objects directly to Devices but does not provide the ability to add an internal object (Method/Property) to a Function Block). Thank you in advance for your help!!! P.S. I have already started trying to implement a script-based solution to call the context menu via AutoHotkey - by relocating the mouse cursor to the area of the navigational selection with a subsequent call of the context menu on it and relocating the mouse cursor back to its initial position. And in order not to "reinvent the wheel," I am writing this request to you!!!

Post by george32 on TCP Server ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Thank you for your advice Rinie, I have tried to follow this example but found one problem.When I disconnect with Hercules the system does not acknowledge the lost of its connection this could result in critical errors. Because of this error I am trying to implement the Syssocket library. With this library I am having a problem which I could not solve. I have the following code: ip_adres : STRING :='0.0.0.0'; port : WORD := 5000; iStep : INT := 1; // Socket information Socket_handler : SysSocket_Interfaces.RTS_IEC_HANDLE; Socket_handler_result : SysSocket_Interfaces.RTS_IEC_RESULT; Socket_adress : SysSocket_Interfaces.SOCKADDRESS; Addres_Convert : SysSocket_Implementation.RTS_IEC_RESULT; // Bind information Bind_handler : SysSocket_Interfaces.RTS_IEC_RESULT; // Listener Information Listener_handler : SysSocket_Interfaces.RTS_IEC_RESULT; Addres_Convert := SysSocket_Implementation.SysSockInetAddr(szIPAddress:= ip_adres,pInAddr:= ADR(Socket_adress.sin_addr)); Socket_adress.sin_family:= SysSocket_Interfaces.SOCKET_AF_INET; Socket_adress.sin_port := SysSocket_Implementation.SysSockHtons(usHost:= port); CASE iStep OF 1: // Create Socket Socket_handler :=SysSockCreate( iAddressFamily :=SysSocket_Interfaces.SOCKET_AF_INET, diType:=SysSocket_Interfaces.SOCKET_STREAM, diProtocol:=SysSocket_Interfaces.SOCKET_IPPROTO_TCP, pResult:=ADR(Socket_handler_result)); IF Socket_handler = SysSocket_Interfaces.RTS_INVALID_HANDLE THEN iStep := 1; ELSE iStep := 2; END_IF 2: Bind_handler := SysSocket_Implementation.SysSockBind( hSocket:=Socket_handler, pSockAddr :=ADR(Socket_adress), diSockAddrSize:=SIZEOF(Socket_adress) ); 3: Listener_handler := SysSocket_Implementation.SysSockListen( hSocket :=Socket_handler, diMaxConnections :=1); END_CASE When I am trying to get this working, the SysSockBind function gives a value of 16#207 which means adress already in use. I find this weird because of the IP-adress of 0.0.0.0. I think I am converting the Ip-adress in the wrong way, but the code does not give a error arround this. So therefore I cannot find the solution to this problem. I hope someone could help me with this problem. Thanks in advance George

Post by vformanek on No source code available for profinet library ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have tried downgrading and it seems fine now. I am now on version 4.3.0.0 for the library. Mainly the PN controller caused the issue for me. Funny weird is that even the PN controller versions 4.3.1.0 and 4.3.0.0 cause the error. Version 4.2.0.0 works fine.

Post by cdutz on Problems connecting to Codesys 4.9.0.0 runtime on my Wago PFC200 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi all. I am currently struggling to get my Wago PFC200 running the Codesys Runtime in version 4.9.0.0 working. I am using Codesys V3.5SP19. I updated the PFC200 to the firmware version 04.01.10(23) after having tried the latest version (04.03.03(25) from Wago and not being able to start the runtime. After reading version 23 was needed, I changed to that and at least was able to have it start the codesys runtime. I also installed the "Codesys Control for PFC200 SL 4.9.0.0" plugin for Codesys to install the Codesys runtime in version 4.9.0.0 as well as update the Gateway on the device. While I seem to be able to connect to the gateway on the PLC (the dot is green) and when doing a scan, I do now find my PFC200, which is a huge improvement to before, where with firmware version 25 it just failed to start the runtime and I never found any device when doing a scan. Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to connect to the PLC in codesys. I logged in via SSH and changed the password and I can see that this password is correct as the stuff in the Codesys PFC200 tools tab only works if I use my changed password. And I used those credentials to update the installed Runtime version, which the log claimed to have worked fine. Now whenever I try to connect to the device found in the scan, I get a authentication pop-up with empy device name, device address: 000A. As User I use "root" and as password the password that I changed it to. As a response I just get "Ungültige Benutzerauthentifizierung auf dem Gerät" (Eng. probably something like "Invalid user authentication on the device". What could I be doing wrong? Admittedly I'm a bit lost here :-/ Chris

Post by manuknecht on Detect "Cancel" Press in FileOpenSave Dialog ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Thanks for your response! It seems like the VisuElems library has updated functions to the ones you used but apparently these older ones still work, even if I couldn't find them in the library documentation and they are also not suggested automatically by Codesys (when using Ctrl + Space). However, its precisely what I was looking for and it works. Thanks!

Post by turndapage on Can't Add Symbol Configuration ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I've got a Weintek HMI with CodeSYS built-in. I've got it connecting to CodeSYS and downloaded. The connection guide says I need to add a symbol configuration by right-clicking on the application and adding it, but it does not show up in the available objects. Is there something else I have to do to create a symbol configuration object?

I have created an EtherCAT slave code and fixed two slaves (IDs written in the 0xF050 object dictionary). The module IDs are 0x1 and 0x101, respectively. It can be scanned normally in TwinCAT, but when scanning in CODESYS, it reports an error. Why is this happening？text in the second pic means 'device cannot be found in repository'

Post by trusty-squire on CNC - How to manipulate SMC_GeoInfo objects ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Sometimes you just need to pose a question on a forum and re-read it to get clarity. pGeoInfo := SMC_GetObj(poq:=ADR(fbCncInterpreter.poqDataOut), n:=1); This won't work, I'm providing a pointer to a pointer, as poqDataOut is already a pointer! I just need to remove the ADR() and it works. pGeoInfo := SMC_GetObj(poq:=fbCncInterpreter.poqDataOut, n:=1);
