Post by programmer on 3.5 P20 hangs - no response ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
hi imdatatas, thanks for your suggestion! I added the process execution to be sure. In the meantime I reïnstall Windows but it dind't help directly. Finally I deleted CodeMeter Runtime Server after Codesys installation. Because this Service was not able to start. And it works (for now) :)!

Post by mqi2r on Newly created texlists wont appear in the selection dropdown ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For anyone with this issue, you may need to: Open the text list properties (right-click the text list once you create it). Select the Text List tab. Change the Download by option to Visualization. I was fighting this for so long. Once you do that, you should find your text list appears in the drop down when editing a visualisation.

Post by wagokurt on CODESYS Visualization M License Fails to activate on Linux SL <sup>CODESYS Forge talk (Post)</sup>
The fix for this is when you install the control SL license, there is a checkbox for the Visu S license option. You must click this option. The Visu M is technically an upgrade to the Visu S, if this is license is not installed them the Visu M will fail as shown above. Thanks JoJo for the solution!

Is there a way to have both a Public No Login Screens with Screens that do require login and File Transfer? My Idea is to have the default page be View Only with a Login Button in the Corner and then Once Logged In you can change settings and download files depending on your user group.

I have working EtherCAT since it can be scanned for slaves, but then I'm stuck getting the information that the device isn't found in the repo. As far as I can see both revisions does however exist in the device repo. Component added in the Configfile. Anyone with some similar experiences?

For reference, it was just me being unfamiliar with EtherCAT in CoDeSys. Anyone with knowledge who would have opened the ScanResult screenshot would have identified that the preceding EK1100 was the device missing in the library. Bottom line - Do something else for a while and then get back at it with fresh eyes!

Enabling Anonymous Login 1. Navigate to 'Device' > 'Communication Settings' > 'Device'. 2. Next, click on 'Change Runtime Security Policy'. 3. In the new window, find and check the box for 'Allow anonymous login'. After completing these steps, you should be able to communicate with the OPC UA server.

Gateway and runtime (Control for linux SL) on a debian linux. Thanks for your check. Good to know. I will probably travel there in about a months time so that will give me better possibility for further testing.

Post by dhumphries on IO link on IFM AL133x only single digital input on a channel <sup>CODESYS Forge talk (Post)</sup>
Try changing the port mode to digital input for each port you want to have 2 inputs in the connection settings for the device. I've successfully used ports for inputs on an AL1920 this way, I think the procedure should be the same for an AL1332.

Just verified the behaviour. Still is the same. It should be attached here. But I also tried the DCF-file with the axis in the lab with the real drive: The MC_Power block never goes out of busy. Had not time to investigate further, though.

Post by tvm on Cannot pass array of constant size to a function as a reference <sup>CODESYS Forge talk (Post)</sup>
maybe this would be a better approach, then you don't have to pass the constant at all. FUNCTION fun : INT VAR_IN_OUT arr: ARRAY[*] OF INT; END_VAR VAR lower: DINT; upper: DINT; END_VAR lower:= LOWER_BOUND(arr, 1); upper:= UPPER_BOUND(arr, 1); see here as well https://help.codesys.com/api-content/2/codesys/3.5.12.0/en/_cds_datatype_array/

Post by tvm on Cannot pass array of constant size to a function as a reference <sup>CODESYS Forge talk (Post)</sup>
It will be a reference, because it's a VAR_IN_OUT. it's a little weird debugging the array online. It just shows as a POINTER TO INT, and you can't actually see the array from the function side. But you can still work with it as a normal array, not a pointer.

Post by masmith1553 on SDO generation <sup>CODESYS Forge talk (Post)</sup>
If you add any device to the CANOpen Manager it will send messages to verify the device is on the network. Do you have the Enable expert settings check box checked in the General tab? have you added any SDOs in the SDOs tab? I avoid using the CANOpen Manager and just use the CAN_Tx and CAN_Rx blocks from the library.

The "remove unused" parameters have been added to 1.0 version as well as the "manual" removal of pins... also allowed "empty" inputs for blocks is in and the compile error described there should no longer occurs. Drag drop of variables is not yet implemented and I don't think the double-click feature yet either.

I used the instruction: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Control/_rtsl_linux_public_key_authentification.html I can connect to UC using SSH (putty, shell). Codesys can't. Do any of you have an idea?
