Post by thomas-moba on "sudo"-Befehle über die Funktion "SysProcessExecuteCommand2" ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Wir haben jetzt so ziemlich alles probiert. Ohne sudo mit sudo, den Aufruf in ein Script gepackt (.sh und .py) und sogar ein eigenes kleines Linux-Programm geschrieben, weil wir vermuteten das der sudo-Befehl nicht im Klartext ausgeführt werden darf. Es funktioniert einfach nicht. Daher dir Frage: muss die codesyscontrol als root ausgeführt werden? Momentan wird sie als user ausgeführt.

Post by davidbo on i2c How does CODESYS handle exception or error messages. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For Raspberry Pi I have made a python script which regularly read a bulk of data over the ic2 from a device. Sometimes I get an Exception an IOError. I assume similar things can happen in CODESYS. So how does CODESYS handle that? Can I get any info about such an event?

Post by rmaas on Direct Pointers in IOMapping for EtherCAT with IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave_Dia ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, Im not sure if this is what you mean, but i do succesfully use the IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave.InputData and IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave.OutputData to read from and write to beckhoff DI and DO cards. Very convenient as you can make an FB with an VAR_IN_OUT of type IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave and only have to pass the slave reference... So i am not using .ETCSlave_Diag but .ETCSlave...

Thank you for the response! It's a path I had already considered, however, while it has always worked for me on inputs, it doesn't on outputs, because if I enable the option to update all IOs at every scan, the IO tasks overwrite each other. However, I have found something very interesting which I am posting below.

Hello, I'm coming to you today because I'm trying to make the baudrate and the slave number dynamic. I've tried the "updateComPortSettings" method on the slave device but it doesn't work and gives the "Modbus_COM_Port" an error. Can you tell me how you got this method to work? Thanks in advance for your help jérémy

Post by westcountryewe on ac_persistence not working when creating a Boot Application but works with a Direct Download to the PLC ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am using V3.5 SP18 Patch 5. I have noticed that when I Create a Boot Application from CODESYS, and upload this to my PLC via a USB stick the AC_Persistence does not work and none of my values that are in my PersistenceChannel are retained. However, if I connect direct to my PLC and I perform a direct download of my CODESYS program, my values that are in my PersistenceChannel are retained and work as they should. This makes me wonder if there are files that are missing when a Boot Application is created. I have tried taking a backup of my configuration files after performing a direct download, which gives me the plclog.zip folder, and appears to have the ac_persistence folder present within the file structure, however when I replace the plclogic.zip with the same folder that was created when I created a Boot Application, it still does not work but I wonder whether this is because the ac_persistence folder isn't stored in the correct location for reading. The .app and .crc files are embedded within the plclogic.zip folder, which obviously when uploading need to be standalone files in the root directory of the USB, so the intention there is clearly to extract the .app and .crc files and put them into the correct location within the USB. I wonder if it could be the same for the ac_persistence folder? I have tried moving it to different locations but none have worked. Has anybody else discovered a fix for this? I know the short-term solution is to do a direct download to the PLC but there are some logistical reasons why this isn't neccesarily the best solution for us.

Post by jdjennings1962 on Is there any support for I2C on Raspberry Pi? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, our team is able to use Raspberry Pi on CODESYS, but we purchased two peripherals that utilize I2C and we cannot figure out how to access these devices in CODESYS. But they are working using Python. Does anyone have a suggestion or an existing library that might help support this? Thank you, Jeff

Post by manuknecht on High Cycle Times for SoftMotion_PlanningTask when using AxisGroup ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi These issues occured using a Raspberry Pi 4. I also repeated the experiment with codesys control for Windows, which results in much lower cycle times. With up to 3 ms, I still think they are fairly high given they should run at 2 ms and don't require complicated kinematics. The effect of higher cycle times for slower movements also prevails.

That definitely does the job with the Ladder Logic Diagram type; fully equipped toolbox. Just starting with Codesys and was following programming steps which explains the choice of ladder I had picked. Thanks for the tip and have a good one! Cheers!

Post by bjarne-pagaard on Multiple WebVisu ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You can use the switch frame variable, but there should be a variable for each active visu user. You can put the switch frame variable in an array, and use CURRENTCLIENTID as index into the array to get what you want. The CURRENTCLIENTID is assigned to new users automagically by the Visu Management.

I've already experimented with two methods, but unfortunately, they only function with projects of type *.project. Consequently, when executing: system.commands["staticanalysis", "run"].execute() For the 2nd Option: You'll need to ensure that in the Static Analysis Settings, the option "Perform static analysis automatically after compilation" is checked. # get Project values myProject = projects.primary # Creates an active application app = myProject.active_application # build Application and run static code analysis app.generate_code()

Post by florian on Stepper Drive with Ethercat ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Codesys has a motion libraries (SoftMotion), but you need to buy a licence keys for them to work. the most basic one is SoftMotionLight. you just have to select your drive in the device view and add a SoftMotionLight CiA402 axis. then the library is added to your project. You can use the SML_* motion FBs and configure the axis now.

I have found a similar topic but tried to run it in C3.5.16 and the visualization crashed. https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Engineering/thread/8be0f6f14a/ My question is what is the easiest way to run a dialog from ST, as we need an external device to open the dialog so we cannot use the button on the display itself.

Post by cihangur on Application has invalid license metrics. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I have a "CODESYS Control Standard L" license and I use Ethercat and Profinet in my project. The project works seamlessly with two fieldbuses. However, when I add modbus_Com (Serial) or 1 OPC Tag to the project, the program throws an exception (Application app=Application has invalid license metrics!). My license should support 10*Modbus and 512 OPC Tags. Why might this problem occur?

There are several versions, u can use an recipt, shm, perstance variables, persistsnce manager. all these ways has some pro's and con's and some of them depending on preparation of the controller byself. others depending on your functionalies and dependencies on project. for all of these ways, you can find the informations on the onlinehelp or from controller-oem

from another post on this forum .... In your library project select Project -> Project Information. On the Properties table remove the "LanguageModelAttribute" Value "Qualified Access Only". This will allow you to access the object without qualifying the access. ...... I guess they've compiled it the library with that setting and now I need to mess around with versions.
