Post by kislov on Change modbus server parameters from program ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Use in IEC-code: Modbus_Serial_Device.UpdateComPortSettings(...) https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/IoDrvModbusSerialSlave/Current/pou-ModbusSerialDeviceDiag/UpdateComPortSettings.html Take note: "Only possible if server is disabled (see xEnable Input)" So: Modbus_Serial_Device.xEnable := FALSE; Modbus_Serial_Device.UpdateComPortSettings(...) Modbus_Serial_Device.xEnable := TRUE; Please note that after PLC reboot the values from the GUI (from your screenshot) will be applied again. So you need to save values from HMI in RETAIN and restore them after start of application.

Hi all. I have a FB written in ST.

In structure i want to add a tag with systemnumber and sensorname. '320.001-RT401' In pou i use this RT401: NTC10k;, and tried this RT401: NTC10k(Tag:='RT401'); Anyone done this?

Post by micik on PLCOpenXML Export/Import with Visualisation ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have noticed that Codesys doesn't provide option to Export any Visualization objects even though there is option to check to export VISU_TASK, which is strange because when Import in another empty project, user will end up with build errors. I understand that probable reason for this is that PLCOpenXML specification includes only "PLC" parts of the project (POU, PRG, variable lists, device ....), but not sure about it. Perhaps, there is some option to include visu objects also in the plcopen xml export list??

Post by pedrorgd on SFC Exit Action during SFCReset Flag ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have an SFC POU with an SFCReset Flag that I use to restart it from the beginning. It works properly. During an Action Step I set one variable to TRUE and I reset it to FALSE during the Exit Action. My question is if this Exit Action will be activated -and the variable reset to FALSE- if I get out of the active step using the SFCReset Flag.

Post by hismoon on Inheritence of struct, ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Using a UNION instead of a STRUCT alone should give you that flexibility and only occupy memory once. And if you want to be really elegant, you could use an FB, which only holds PUBLIC VAR. Because a POU can use "EXTENDS"/inheritance. In CODESYS V3, an FB has a lot in common with C++ classes. Using ANY or ALIAS is rarely a good idea. It neither won't be pretty, nor have good readability and requires you to create a lot of error-prone things around it.

Hi, I am still not able to figure out how to use the the classes and their functions. 😔 Let's say I would like to use the function "importfile()" from the class "ScriptTextListObject.ScriptTextListMarker". I would be grateful for an additional example. Thanks! 😊

Post by timvh on Detect "Cancel" Press in FileOpenSave Dialog ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Maybe there is a better way, but a long time ago I created a test application that worked like this: With a button I opened the dialog and I added a "Input configuration - OnDialogClosed" "Execute ST-Code" action to this same button which called the following Function when the dialog was closed: F_OnFileDialogClosed(pClientData); Below this Function which handled the result: // This function is called from the visualization when the dialog is closed. FUNCTION F_OnFileDialogClosed : BOOL VAR_INPUT pClientData : POINTER TO VisuElems.VisuStructClientData; END_VAR VAR dialogMan : VisuElems.IDialogManager; FileOpenCloseDialog : VisuElems.IVisualisationDialog; result : VisuElems.Visu_DialogResult; _sFileName : STRING(255); END_VAR // the DialogManager is provided via the implicitly available VisuManager dialogMan := VisuElems.g_VisuManager.GetDialogManager(); IF dialogMan <> 0 AND pClientData <> 0 THEN FileOpenCloseDialog := dialogMan.GetDialog('VisuDialogs.FileOpenSave'); // gets the FileOpenSave dialog IF FileOpenCloseDialog <> 0 THEN result := FileOpenCloseDialog.GetResult(); // gets the result (OK, Cancel) of the dialog IF result = VisuElems.Visu_DialogResult.OK THEN // Original code gvlFile.FileListProvider(); _sFileName := CONCAT(gvlFile.FileListProvider._stDirectory, gvlFile.FileListProvider.stFile); // do something with this file name...

Post by joanm on Function block method default arguments ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
The new TwinCAT 4026 will add those default parameters, as TwinCAT drinks from Codesys I guess that will be implemented soon (or maybe, it already is given what tvm says in the previous post).

Post by eschwellinger on function block output ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I think you should use a piece of hardware in between your drive (pulse/direction) and the plc like for example Beckhoff EL2521 - so Ethercat might be to choice if you need CNC and SoftMotion. EK1100 and EL2521

okay but will this pass the array by copying it or it will be a reference to original array only.

not sure on which plc you are - there might be the option with: https://forge.codesys.com/drv/sm3raspistepper/home/Home/ but it is more or less Pi restricted and need additional hardware too I guess.

Thank you seoerr for your suggestion. When I implement that line, I get this error: ** [ERROR] 'OSCAT_BASIC.ARRAY_SDV' is of type FUNCTION and cannot be instantiated** Any other thoughts about instantiating these sections of the library which seem to be provided as source only?

Thanks for the answer. So yes I've enabled expert settings, and yes i've added some SDOs, but some of them who are generated are likely making a mess in the network and generated error with my device... From which library comes those 2 function blocks ?
