Ok, I have a simple test environment. From C#, using OPC UA, I can read DINTs, write DINTs, read Structs, but when I try to write a struct I get BadNotWritable. I am using Communication Manager, OPC UA Server, and IEC Symbol Publishing. I have a struct defined with one single DINT in it. The instance of the struct is in GVL. The struct is marked read/write in IEC Symbol Publishing. Any ideas? Pointers are welcome. public static async Task WriteStructA(byte[] structAData) { if (_session == null) throw new Exception("session is null"); // create a RequestHeader RequestHeader requestHeader = new RequestHeader { Timestamp = DateTime.UtcNow, TimeoutHint = 30000 // timeout in milliseconds }; // create an ExtensionObject to wrap the value to be written ExtensionObject extensionObject = new ExtensionObject( new ExpandedNodeId("GVL_StructA", 5), structAData ); // create a WriteValue object to hold the value to be written WriteValue writeValue = new WriteValue { NodeId = _structANodeId, AttributeId = Attributes.Value, Value = new DataValue(extensionObject) }; // put the WriteValue object into a WriteValueCollection object WriteValueCollection writeValueCollection = new WriteValueCollection() { writeValue }; // perform the write operation asynchronously WriteResponse writeResponse = await _session.WriteAsync( requestHeader, writeValueCollection, CancellationToken.None ); // check the result of the write operation if (writeResponse.Results[0] != StatusCodes.Good) throw new Exception("Write failed: " + writeResponse.Results[0]); }

Hello, This is my first time using Codesys, I am trying to add EtherNetIP communication to a Raspberry PI. I’ve added the EtherNetIP Adapter configured the network setting and added some modules to the pi but when I download the project it generates the following error: “There is no source code available for the object because it is in the compiled library ‘cip object, 4.5.1.0 (3s – smart software solution gmbh)’. Do you want to browse for the original library in order to display the source code? There are 2 errors in the log which are: SOURCEPOSITION App=[Application] area=3, offset=332760 EXCEPTION [Application] occurred: App=[Application], Task=[ENIPAdapterServiceTask] I can’t for the life of me work out how to get around this. I can’t find the source code anywhere or any information regarding this error. I’m using Codesys V3.5 SP19 Patch 3, the version of the Ethernet adapter is 4.5.1.0 and the version of the modules is 4.1.0.0. Any help on this will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hey Everyone, I'm having a bit of a struggle finding settings that will reliably maintain a connection between the webvisu and a touchscreen client. Every so often the HMI disconnects and will perpetually display the red spinning arrow with the "Error Happened, Will resume automatically" text. Power cycling the HMI to force a reconnect will re-establish comms. It seems to happen during periods of inactivity if that's a clue. From what I've gathered so far this seems to have something to do with the webvisu update rate, buffer size as well as the visu task scan rate. We first tried the default settings as follows: Webvisu Update Rate: 200 ms Webvisu Buffer Size: 50,000 Visu Task Scan Rate: 100 ms Priority 31 Other Tasks for Reference: Main Task Scan Rate: 100 ms Priority 1 Alarm Manager Scan Rate: 50 ms Priority 31 Ethercat Task: 4 ms Priority 1 This would disconnect some what regularly. We then made the following changes to try and stabilize: Webvisu Update Rate: 150 ms Webvisu Buffer Size: 75,000 Visu Task Scan Rate: 75 ms Kept other tasks the same. This seems to disconnect even more frequently. Also for reference the network is very small and only consists of the PLC, a small switch and the HMI. We're also not controlling frames from outside the visu program itself. The frame changes are all done natively. Any suggestions to get this to stop disconnecting? Oh and whatever the issue is the log does not record it. Figured I would ask here before opening a ticket. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi, I'm trying to launch a continuously running python script from Codesys and monitor the script status inside the Codesys runtime (running on a Linux enviroment). For now I'm testing with the below to emulate a continuously running Python script: #test.py i = 0 while True: i += 1 I'm able to successfully run the script using SysProcessExecuteCommand2 (I can see the Python process running in the task manager). However, this "freezes" the Codesys execution of the task - it sits on that command and will not continue until the Python script ends. I've proven this works by using the task monitor to kill the process, then Codesys continues on happily through the task. What I want to do is use SysProcessCreate2 to set up the Python script as a background task and monitor the process using SysProcessGetState. This always results in the error "ERR_OPERATION_DENIED". I know that I'm able to execute commands (as above), so my config should be correct. Is SysProcessCreate2 functional on a Linux environment? Is there something in the config file I'm missing? Here's my "working" code that uses SysProcessExecuteCommand2: VAR bTest : BOOL; sCommand : STRING := '/usr/bin/python3 /var/opt/codesys/PlcLogic/Application/test.py'; refCommand : REFERENCE TO STRING REF= sCommand; sOutput : STRING; refOutput : REFERENCE TO STRING REF= sOutput; result : RTS_IEC_RESULT; END_VAR IF bTest THEN SysProcessExecuteCommand2( pszCommand:= refCommand, pszStdOut:= refOutput, udiStdOutLen:= SIZEOF(sOutput), pResult:= ADR(result) ); bTest:= FALSE; END_IF And here's the code that always results in the ERR_OPERATION_DENIED error: VAR bTest : BOOL; sApp : STRING := '/usr/bin/python3'; sCommand : STRING := '/var/opt/codesys/PlcLogic/Application/test.py'; refApp : REFERENCE TO STRING REF= sApp; refCommand : REFERENCE TO STRING REF= sCommand; hResult : SysProcess.RTS_IEC_RESULT; hHandle : SysProcess.RTS_IEC_HANDLE; END_VAR IF bTest THEN hHandle := SysProcessCreate2( pszApplication:= refApp, pszCommandLine:= refCommand, ulFlags:=SYSPROCESS_CREATEFLAG_HIDDEN, pResult:= ADR(hResult) ); bTest:= FALSE; END_IF Here's the relevant section from the config file at /etc/codesyscontrol/CODESYSControl.cfg: [SysProcess] Command=AllowAll Appreciate any support or ideas. Thanks!

depends on if you use PFC200 SL from CODESYS store or the Wago target for the PFC. If you use the SL product you need to setup the interface by a plcshell command...

IF you have an USB interface type in "Peak_USB" for CAN card driver (Name of CAN card driver). No need to add libraries for communication via CoDeSys Gateway. For other card types contact PEAK support and they will help you. Regards,

Most likely your IP address is set to 172.... because you use a VPN connection to your device. Probably best to use the other Ethernet interface for your modbus communication.

Could you send a screenshot of the Ethernet "General" settings? In that screen you can also search for the Ethernet interface you would like to use for your communication. Did you do that? Did you change any settings manually in the CODESYSControl_user.cfg?

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.
