Post by petra on Gateway not configured properly when read_online_value ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Here is what I use to read online the parameter value. proj = projects.primary app = proj.active_application plc = proj.find("Device", True)[0] onlineapp = online.create_online_application(app) onlineapp.login(OnlineChangeOption.Try, True) dev1 = proj.find("DEV1", True)[0] for conn in dev1.connectors: > parms = conn.host_parameters > if len(parms) > 0: > p = parms.by_id(1074855985) > p.read_online_value(2000) ---> error: Gateway not configured properly Does anyone know about this?

Post by gilad on CODESYS SoftMotion Generic DSP402 on WAGO PFC200 + Festo CMMT-AS: MC_Power stays Busy, Controlword remains 0 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I am trying to connect a Festo CMMT-AS-C4-3A-MP-S1 servo drive to a WAGO PFC200 (750-8210) using EtherCAT and CODESYS SoftMotion. Hardware PLC: WAGO PFC200 750-8210 Drive: Festo CMMT-AS-C4-3A-MP-S1 Communication: EtherCAT CODESYS version: Device description version 6.3.1.1 Drive firmware: 36.10.3 Current Status EtherCAT communication is working correctly: EtherCAT master = Running Drive detected and operational PDO input and output mapping is active Statusword, position and velocity are updating correctly Current PDO mapping: Outputs: 6040 Controlword -> %QW0 6060 Modes of operation -> %QB2 607A Target position -> %QD1 60FF Target velocity -> %QD3 Inputs: 6041 Statusword -> %IW2 6061 Modes of operation display -> %IB6 6064 Position actual value -> %ID2 606C Velocity actual value -> %ID3 SoftMotion Axis I added a SoftMotion CiA402 axis under the EtherCAT slave: Axis type: SM_Drive_GenericDSP402 Axis communication state: operational (100) No SoftMotion mapping errors anymore Problem MC_Power is executed with: Enable = TRUE bRegulatorOn = TRUE bDriveStart = TRUE but: Status = FALSE Busy = TRUE Error = FALSE ErrorID = SMC_NO_ERROR The axis remains in: SMC_AXIS_STATE.power_off DSP402 state = SWITCH_ON_DISABLED The most important observation: Statusword = 32784 (0x8010) Controlword (%QW0) remains 0 all the time SoftMotion never writes 6, 7, or 15 to the Controlword. Additional Information The axis status page reports: "The license is missing or invalid. The PLC runs in demo mode." I am not sure whether: The missing SoftMotion license prevents Controlword generation completely. The axis is still not correctly connected to the EtherCAT slave despite operational communication. There is an additional CiA402 configuration step required for the Festo CMMT-AS drive. Has anyone successfully used a Festo CMMT-AS MP drive with CODESYS SoftMotion Generic DSP402 on a WAGO PFC200? Any suggestions on what should be checked next would be greatly appreciated.

I am trying to use Codesys to connect by Modbus RTU to an Arduino UNO, I add the Modbus COM Port but when I try to add the master and the slave I don't have these options, I attach an image of the device manager. I am using Codesys 3.5 SP21.

A customer of us had the same issue. They updated (at that time) to CODESYS 3.5.21.50 and Control for Linux SL versie 4.19.0.0. After that they couldn't reproduce the issue anymore. You might give this a try too.

Post by wold on CodeMeter Network Server: Keep runtime dongle local-only and export only a second CmStick ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I am running a CODESYS Control Runtime on a Raspberry Pi. Two CmSticks are connected to the same system: CmStick A - Runtime license - MultiCore license - KNX license CmStick B - Engineering / Developer licenses My goal is: The runtime on the Raspberry Pi shall use CmStick A locally. Licenses from CmStick A shall NOT be provided by the CodeMeter Network Server. Only licenses from CmStick B shall be available to remote network clients. During troubleshooting I observed that the CodeMeter Network Server collects licenses from both CmSticks. The KNX license appears to be local-only, but the runtime and multicore licenses of the same dongle are still visible through the server. I would like to know if a supported configuration exists for the following scenario: One CmStick remains strictly local to the runtime. A second CmStick on the same machine is exported through the CodeMeter Network Server. Questions: Is it possible to exclude a specific CmStick from being exported by the CodeMeter Network Server? Can this be configured via License Access Permissions (ACL), WebAdmin, or another mechanism? Can export rules be applied per CmStick, per Firm Code, or per Product Code? If supported, could you provide a configuration example or a reference to the relevant documentation? The reason for asking is that after removing a separately installed CodeMeter server component and returning to a local-only setup, the runtime licensing behaviour became stable again. Therefore I am looking for the officially supported way to keep the runtime dongle local while still providing engineering licenses from a second dongle over the network. Thank you.

Post by ilarioimi on Date Picker ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I am new here and need some help. I have added the Date Picker to a visualization page. The date selection works, but the current day is not highlighted. The date and time are displayed correctly by the system, which is set by default to “VisuElems.Visu_DateTime.DisplayUTC:= FALSE;”. Is there some project setting or Visualization Manager setting that I am missing? Thank you. Ilario.

I've tried to adjust the screen resolution, i tried changing scaling, i tried the compatibility options. To keep it short, nothing worked.

Ich kann nur sagen, dass ich die gleichen Probleme habe. Aber auch erst neuerdings. Zuerst kam auch die Meldung mit dem falschen Versionsprofil. Habe jetzt schon mehrere Sachen versucht Neuinstallation / Reparatur. Alles deinstalliert. Leider hat das bei mir noch nicht geholfen. Codesys läuft unendlich langsam - immer wieder keine Rückmeldung.

I have to install "Basic M" and "Visualization M", but it seems that during installation of "Basic M" you have to enable "Visualization S" I assume if you here after want to install my "Visualization M". And I forgot to enable "Visualization S" How do I fix that?

Post by timvh on CODESYS: Combining Master Redundancy with EtherCAT Ring Topology – Is it Supported? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Yes, this works (at least we have it running with Wago PLC and Beckhoff I/O), but the concept works. You need 2 PLC's with at leat 3 network interfaces. And 2 switches (can be unmanaged). See the attached simple diagram for the solution.

Post by mrkm-dic on CODESYS: Combining Master Redundancy with EtherCAT Ring Topology – Is it Supported? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi! thanks for reply. We tested the configuration you proposed as well; however, when the cable between the controller and the switch was disconnected, the Active and Standby roles were swapped. Did you observe the same behavior in your configuration using WAGO and Beckhoff?

Ok, I think I understand. The problem is my language-setting being "swedish". I will check if I can switch to english. Update/confirmed. Change LANG to en_GB, this enabled the architechture to be correct and the control SL again to appear and to be possible to be updated. Thanks!

Hi polyautomacao, hmm, did you tune the PD parameters as shown in the link I posted above? One thing that could cause the behavior are bad parameters. I also don't understand the screen shot: when you hold the encoder to 0, why is the actual position of the DrivePosControl -208? Best regards, Georg

Post by buczekj on ERROR: Calling the program "AlarmStorage_Prg" is not allowed from multiple tasks ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Many issues with the alarmmanager and alarmstorage can be solved by deleting the configuration, rebooting, and redownloading. I've found that the configurator doesn't always update when you make chanegs. For linux installations it is typically located in /var/opt/codesys/PlcLogic/alarms/ look for file Application.AlarmConfiguration.xml cd /var/opt/codesys/PlcLogic sudo rm -r alarms sudo reboot
