Post by paulg on Converting hex bytes to float ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I'll be capturing a hex stream over serial into a RasPi and I'd like to convert a group of bytes into a float. I see this is available (https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/cdsoperatorrealto.html) but not its inverse (i.e. BYTE_TO_REAL). The packets will be 18 bytes but I'll be selecting 4 byte segments from the middle, swapping byte endianness (i.e. changing 0x51847641 to 0x41768451), and converting to float; I believe they adhere to IEEE 754. Is there a pre-built function for some or all of this, or do I need to follow (https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Engineering/thread/dc5829c7ea/)? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I would appreciate your help with a problem I've been working on for a few days but haven't been able to resolve. I'm trying to read data from Tridium Niagara 4.15 OPC UA Server, but I get the error BadCertificateInvalid. As far as I understand, you need to add a CA certificate somewhere to establish a secure connection, but I don't know where. 2025-10-27T09:06:43.247Z, 0x0000008d, 4, 0, 0, * ERROR: OpcUa_Channel_BeginConnect: Cannot create secure channel without certificates! 2025-10-27T09:06:43.247Z, 0x00001090, 4, 0, 0, * ERROR: Datasource: Error Failed (268468242) in state Connecting I tried communicating without encryption, but it doesn't find the point. Has anyone managed to establish encrypted OPC UA communication?

Post by harryc on Soft Container License issue with ARM64 Linux ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, We are working to provide our customers with CODESYS operation on our hardware product ( https://elprotech.com/product/el-qe-e-quantum-edge-series/ ). I'm trying to enable a CODESYS license (Soft container) on our product running ARM64 linux. This problem am having looks similar to here: https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/6d29b6b4de/ and here: https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/a2d0c63375/; but I am not running docker, and I am not re-installing a license. This is first time install. I have CODESYS Control SL running on my device, as well as CodeMeter. I purchased a license, and installed it to the CODESYS Development system, (Tools >> License Repository) then tried to install to the device (Tools >> License Manager >> o Device >> o Soft container >> Remote [0001] >> OK. This gives me the "License Manager - Overview" dialog, and the message "Licensing info not available. There is no dongle attached to the device." Below shows the running applications, installed packages, and current content of /var/opt/codesys Also attached screenshots of the Development software as I go through the steps to install the license. # # ps | grep -e "code" -e "CodeMeter" 1391 daemon /usr/sbin/CodeMeterLin 1407 root /opt/codesys/bin/codesyscontrol.bin /etc/codesyscontrol/CODESYSControl.cfg 1442 root /opt/codesysedge/bin/codesysedge.bin /etc/codesysedge/Gateway.cfg 29229 root grep -e code -e CodeMeter # dpkg -l Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==============-=============-============-============================================================================================== ii codemeter-lite 8.20.6539.500 arm64 WIBU CodeMeter minimal runtime ii codesyscontrol 4.14.0.0 arm64 codesyscontrol based on SDK 3.5.20.40 , from Fri Nov 29 08:35:37 CET 2024 [265], Release build ii codesysedge 4.14.0.0 arm64 codesysedge based on SDK 3.5.20.40 , from Fri Nov 29 08:34:19 CET 2024 [265], Release build # ls -la /var/opt/codesys total 208 drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Nov 7 05:31 . drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Nov 6 08:33 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23515 Nov 7 07:26 .Audit.log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 160 Nov 7 05:31 .GroupDatabase.csv -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 160 Nov 7 04:37 .GroupDatabase.csv_ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20736 Nov 29 2024 .SoftContainer_CmRuntime.wbb -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1982 Nov 29 2024 .UFC_SoftContainer_CmRuntime.WibuCmLif -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 229 Nov 7 04:35 .UserDatabase.csv -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 229 Nov 7 04:35 .UserDatabase.csv_ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11807 Nov 7 05:30 .UserMgmtRightsDB.csv drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Nov 6 08:30 .pki drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Nov 6 08:30 OPCUAServer drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Nov 6 08:30 PlcLogic -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13 Nov 6 08:30 SysFileMap.cfg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2640 Nov 29 2024 bacstac.ini drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Nov 6 08:30 cert -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 94105 Nov 7 07:25 codesyscontrol.log # # uname -a Linux Remote 6.1.22 #5 SMP PREEMPT Tue Nov 18 11:35:46 AEST 2025 aarch64 GNU/Linux #

Post by edson-bueno on SysProcess Execute Command unable to run commands with special characters ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I found the same issue, and I fixed with this steps: 1st go to codesys .cfg file. sudo nano CODESYSControl.cfg Then insert this: [SysProcess] BasePriority=Realtime Command=AllowAll Now we need to grant codesys root rights on Linux. Step 1: Create or edit the systemd override configuration: sudo systemctl edit codesyscontrol In the editor that opens, insert: [Service] User=root Save and exit: Press Ctrl+O to save Press Ctrl+X to exit Step 2: Reload systemd and reboot To apply the override: sudo systemctl daemon-reexec sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo reboot Step 3: Confirm CODESYS is running as root After reboot, open the terminal and run: ps aux | grep codesyscontrol You should see something like: root 1234 ... /opt/codesys/bin/codesyscontrol.bin ... If instead it shows admin or another user, the override was not applied correctly. Step 4: (Optional) Confirm from within CODESYS In your CODESYS project, insert this test code to run the Linux command whoami: Make sure the lib SysProcessImplementation, SysTypes, and CmpErrors is on the project. VAR sCommand : STRING := '/usr/bin/whoami'; sOutput : STRING(255); refCommand : REFERENCE TO STRING; refOutput : REFERENCE TO STRING; resultCmd : UDINT; END_VAR refCommand REF= sCommand; refOutput REF= sOutput; SysProcessExecuteCommand2( pszCommand := refCommand, pszStdOut := refOutput, udiStdOutLen := SIZEOF(sOutput), pResult := ADR(resultCmd) ); Notes & Warnings This method gives full system access to the CODESYS runtime — do not expose this system to the public network without protection. Do not use sudo in commands inside CODESYS when the runtime is already running as root. @tomas111, in case you want to read the temperatur, use this command: sCommand:STRING:='/usr/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp';
