Post by tk096 on How to get the motor scaling value from code ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, unfortunately, in Softmotion you have only access to the combined fraction - the scaling factor from user units to motor increments. It can be accessed using MC_ReadParameter with parameter number 1054. increments = user_unit_position * fScaleFactor

Post by pouyavakili on Execute Codesys Tests with python ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
❓ Issue: TestManager Not Available in Python Script (AttributeError) 🙏 Question: Why does project.get_testmanager() not work in scripting, even though Test Manager is installed and licensed, and the script runs in GUI mode? Is there a way to ensure the Test Manager interface is loaded or accessible from the scripting environment? 🧠 Summary: I'm trying to automate test execution using the CODESYS scripting engine (Python) via a script that opens a project, builds the application, and runs tests from a TestRepository.xml. Although the Test Manager works manually in the IDE, it fails when accessed via script with the following error: AttributeError: 'ScriptObject' object has no attribute 'testmanager' 🧪 Test Setup: CODESYS version: 3.5.21.10 Test Manager: Installed and licensed (works in the IDE manually) Project: Contains a test repository, which can be executed via the GUI Script execution method: powershell Start-Process -FilePath "C:\Program Files\CODESYS 3.5.21.10\CODESYS\Common\CODESYS.exe" ` -ArgumentList @( '--profile="CODESYS V3.5 SP21 Patch 1"', '--runscript="C:\Scripts\run_tests.py"' ) -Wait 📜 Script Summary: python project = projects.open(project_path) application = project.active_application application.build() This fails: testmanager = project.get_testmanager() ❗ Problem: Calling project.get_testmanager() or application.testmanager throws an AttributeError, even though the same project and test repository work in the GUI.

Post by ulvis on IDE chrashes when importing OPC UA ECM model ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I can import some OPC UA information models, allright. Like the UA (core), Scheduler and PNEM models, etc. However, when I try to import the ECM model (Energy Consumption Managment), the Codesys IDE goes down after a while. Any clues?

This solution did not give me peace of mind, so I decided to check other options again, especially since artifacts appear on some controls in WebVis. The solution is to enable the Multitouch handling option in the additional settings tab.

Post by timvh on Where to find the OPC-UA Information Model Repository ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I'm not sure, but maybe you need to install or update the "CODESYS Communication" add-on through the CODESYS Installer.

In the device selection. Do not filter on Phoenix. Remove this filter and first add an Ethernet Adapter from CODESYS. To this Ethernet adapter add the Profinet Controller. After this you can filter on Phoenix devices in the "add device dialog".

Post by alexgooi on Codesys OPC DA server requires more then 2 GB of ram ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Dear Forum, We are currently running into a problem that the CODESYS OPC DA server is running out of RAM (larger than 2 GB). We have a setup of 10 Codesys controllers which features around 300.000 discoverable tags per controller. We are only interested in 10 percent of the tags to be communicated to the OPC-server, this is due to the fact the program consists of arrays of objects which on their part implements arrays of objects, simply reducing the number of discoverable tags is not an option The OPC-DA server loads all the discoverable tags, is it possible to: 1 let the OPC-DA server only load the tags that are requested by the SCADA/MES system. 2 let the OPC-DA server claim more memory. 3 run 2 OPC-DA servers in parallel? Thank you in advance

Hello all, I cannot find anything connecting IEC-61499 to CODESYS. Considering the quality of the CODESYS IEC-61131-3 implementation and that IEC-61499 expands on it, literally including as integral part, why is there no mention of CODESYS and IEC-61499 anywhere on the internet?
