I need to understand how an external encoder ties into the SM_Drive_PosControl setup. I have an application where I have two hydraulic servo amplifiers. The encoder is a Temposonic Linear SSI encoder. How does the encoder get tied back into the SM_Drive_PosControl axis. Thanks.

Post by jschu on Dynamical scaling of bar graph without the bar itself
CODESYS Forge

Hi there, Task: dynamical changing the scaling of an bar graph, linear scaling whitout showing the bar only the scaling values and Lines for Main and partial steps. Define 4 Limits for Hi and LO Values with different colors Option 1 : use the bar graph whitout showing the actual bar whitout showing the bar, only the scaling values and lines for main and partial steps. Then what to do with the 4 Limits ? I could use 4 moveable Rectangles with the start and end value fo the areas but then the whoel bargraph must be transparent. Best way would be if only the scale ist possible to show as it is possible for the Meter 180° but this option does not exist for the bargraph. Option 2 : user defined HMTL5 Widgets wich may be some allreay has created or where is a dome for using this kind of html5 widget. The expanse for use html is in my eyes to big and gives more option for errors. Have some one experience in this topic or a hint how to do it the easiest way? Thanks for your help.

Hello , will this be changed in an upcooming version? The current method is to use all the color Variables for buttons and object as changeable variables but the amount of work for this results in a bad cost-benefi ratio.

I can mention that i needed to update the firmware on the mitsubishi servo and then i got a step closer. The old firmware did not support FSOE but the new does.

That's because the array only contains structures themselves, not references. It doesn't matter that what consists of each struectures unless they are not pointers.

If you update all to the newest versions in the project environment and update all devices in the device tree, the errors should gone! Missing the device updates is often causing this problems!

Dear People I’m trying to draw a circle using MC_MoveCircularAbsolute, but I keep encountering an error. The error message is SMC_CP_CIRCLE_CENTER_NOT_ON_BISECTOR. What I’m trying to do is simply draw a circle with a diameter of 20, starting from the point X=0, Y=0. I’ve set CircMode to center. It seems like a simple task, but the error keeps occurring, and it’s giving me a headache. I’d appreciate your help. I’ve also attached the program, so please provide any advice you can. I want to use the mode as the center. I've tried changing multiple coordinates and it won't run. Please help. sample stCirculAuxPoint.c.X := 20; stCirculAuxPoint.c.Y := 10; stCirculEndPoint.c.X := 20; stCirculEndPoint.c.Y := 30; fbMoveCircularAbsolute( AxisGroup := AxisGroup, Execute := xGroupCirculEx, CircMode := SMC_CIRC_MODE.CENTER, AuxPoint := stCirculAuxPoint, EndPoint := stCirculEndPoint, PathChoice := 0, Velocity := 50, Acceleration := 50, Deceleration := 50, Jerk := 50, CoordSystem := SMC_COORD_SYSTEM.MCS, BufferMode := 0, TransitionMode := 0, TransitionParameter := , OrientationMode := , VelFactor := , AccFactor := , JerkFactor := , TorqueFactor := , Name := , Done => , Busy => , Active => , CommandAborted => , CommandAccepted => , Error => , ErrorID => , MovementId => );

Did you create a certificate on that device already? Go to the menu View - Security Screen and check the certificates on the device. There should be one for your webclient FB.

You can write any expression that evaluates to TRUE/FALSE in that property, you can also call a method from the property.

For reference this is fixed by installing the new codesys install with a separate repository folder. Completely resolved. If anyone else sees this. I would like to know why the persistent devices repository folder does not properly retain between installs though.

Yes, the putty connection from within the virtual windows 10 worked. No, the codesys runtime deploy from within the virtual windows 10 did not.

I have a main PLC with my CODESYS project on, including Web Visu. I also have a second device used for pump monitoring, all of this is displayed on a seperate HMI. I am looking at displaying the pump monitoring HMI on WebVisu so that I can solely use 1 HMI rather than having two. I can project the pump monitoring HMI into Chrome, and log in and it works fine. When I'm using the Web Browser element in Web Visu, enter my URL (device IP) it shows me the web page, but doesn't show me all of it. It uses parts of JavaScript for the login authenticiation and various other widgets. Similarly, I cannot get Youtube or Google to display on WebVisu either (possibily because of the same reason). Does anybody have any tips on how I can display the likes of Youtube or Google onto WebVisu so I can view it on my 7inch HMI (I suspect that if I can get Youtube or Google to work, then I will also be able to get my pump montitoring web page to work too).
