Post by wbj0t on Update project from SP20 to SP21 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello everyone. I have a problem: I installed new version of codesys IDE. When I try open project in this new version, I have many errors about Visu: rectalnge/button/frame/etc does not exist. How update properly project? 20+ pages of visu pages from 100+ frames and all visu elems looks like "Error image". It is not problem of SP20->SP21. Any update has problems from visu side.

Post by josul on Web Client HTTPS Communication Issue ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Thank you for the suggestion. There is a certificate created in the quarantine directory relating to the URL used for the webclient FB. This certificate should have been valid as it was created only the week before this problem was encountered. I investigated a separate location using the same https URL and it has 2 certificates in the same quarantine directory, 1 is created almost 200 days ago, the other over 100 days ago. There have been no similar problems encountered with these certs or https at all.

Post by timothyzalusky on Missing Device Descriptions in Repository ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
After updating my Codesys to later versions, it seems my device repository no longer lists the proper runtime devices, nor ethernet adapters, or other previously installed device descriptions. What needs to be done here? Do I need to uninstall and do a clean install? I am now updating to SP21.1 to see if that fixes it. Any tips what I am doing wrong here are much appreciated. I don't see codesys control win, or have the ability to add an ethernet adapter in my project.

Post by berkdan on SMC_ReadNCFile2 is always busy ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I’m using CODESYS V3.5 SP18. When I try to use SMC_ReadNCFile2 to read the file /PlcLogic/gcode.nc, the function block's bBusy output remains TRUE indefinitely. Can you help me understand what I might be doing wrong? Here is how I’m calling the function block. The value of strFileName is 'gcode.nc'. fbReadFile( bExecute := bExecute, sFileName := strFileName, bAbort := bCycleStop, fDefaultVel := RetainVariables.xSlowVelocity, fDefaultAccel := RetainVariables.xAcc, fDefaultDecel := RetainVariables.xDec, b3DMode := TRUE, bParenthesesAsComments := TRUE, fDefaultVelFF := RetainVariables.xFastVelocity, fDefaultAccelFF := RetainVariables.xAcc, fDefaultDecelFF := RetainVariables.xDec, ErrorID => gCNC.eErrorId, errorPos => gCNC.eErrorPos, ErrorProgramName => gCNC.eErrorProgName, bBusy => bReadFileBusy, sentences => sentencesss ); Thanks in advance for your help.

Post by berkdan on SMC_ReadNCFile2 is always busy ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hey tk96 Thank you for your help. I have found the reason why fbreader stuck. It was not the program but it was the gcode itself. G21 command blocks the reader. And multiple G codes in a line also blocks the reader. My code was: N010 G21 G17 G90 -> Blocked the reader When i change it to: N010 G90 N020 G17 Then it worked. The only thing i did not get is why the reader did not thwor error. ErrorId was SMC_NO_ERROR. Anyway, it is now working. Thanks again.

Post by imdatatas on Use MC_Home without enabling the drive for homing method 35 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, As far as I know, no matter which home mode is selected, the axis must be in Standstill mode to run MC_Home according to PLCopen state machine. However, if the function you want can already be done from a parameter in the driver of the vendor you are using, you can try to perform the same function by sending the required value to that parameter via communication with the SDO write command.

Hi! I am using abb ac500 in automation builder v2.7 I have a problem with a new project. In the normal mode I have no problems, but in safety mode i cannot go online. I get 'Communication Error (#0) Logout Performed' message. I have tried changing the adress (level 1) in communication parameters. I tried 0.0.0.0.0 and 0.1.0.0.0 and 1.1.0.0.0 but it did no difference. What do you think could be causing this? Thanks!

Post by yuan on Seeking a Code-Based Solution for EtherCAT Slave Dropout or Master Errors in Production (Beyond Software Hot Reset) ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I need official assistance with the following issue: During EtherCAT communication, if a slave station drops off the network or the master station encounters an error, the problem can currently only be resolved by performing a software-based hot reset. In actual production environments, this approach is unacceptable. Is there a method to resolve these issues programmatically, through code?

Post by imdatatas on The default ramp type selection in SoftMotion V4.18.0.0 is Quadratic ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Dear @gseidel, @tk096, I noticed that with SoftMotion V4.18.0.0, if a new axis is added to the project, the ramp type selection defaults to "Quadratic". In all previous versions, the velocity ramp type selection was "Trapezoidal". This causes some unexpected issues in projects with SoftMotion version V4.18.0.0 for newly created or newly added axes to existing projects. Is it possible to reconsider this situation in the next update and set the velocity ramp type to "Trapezoid" by default again? Best Regards, Imdat

Hi, Has anyone managed to use the last four buttons in a POU toolbar in LD2? You can close and open by clicking from one small rectangle to another (same for deleting a closure //). Linking K to D causes a series connection with all the branches // above. Amazing! I don't really see the advantages of this supposedly modern and efficient language over the old LD/FBD. Can anyone explain?

Hi There, I took over a project from a colleague (in GTB) who left the company. When I took over his project, it wouldn't compile because some libraries were missing. I managed to recover quite a few libraries, but I can't find the library that contains the block functions shown in the image. Here are a few examples: Fb_RegMel_ISO Fb_DefModbus FbDecalConsSalSO Fb_Autor_FreeCool_CTA_C I'm a little stuck at the moment, so if you see a Facebook post that speaks to you, don't hesitate to get in touch! Thank you in advance for your help.

Post by yannickasselin on Dynamically enabling/disabling Modbus slave devices in runtime (performance issue with timeouts) ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I would definitely try using the "Reconfigure" function block from "CAA Device Diagnosis@ library. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/CAA%20Device%20Diagnosis/3.5.17.0/CAA-Device-Diagnosis/Function-Blocks/Reconfigure/Reconfigure.html#:~:text=This%20function%20block%20reads%20and,take%20effect. Although I have not tried it with Modbus, I had great success with EtherNet/IP, Profinet and EtherCAT. You can also have a look at the other functions in this library. There are useful functions to help iterate through all the nodes under a master node.

Post by camjam on BOOL variable in OPC UA and modbus simultaneously ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have come across this. The only way i could get it to work would be to define a word that is also the same address as the Bools. eg %MX600.0 through to %MX600.15 would be individually defined in the variables and them have another variable word defined at %MW300. You still need to break out the word in what ever program you are using to read/write the OPCUA tags.
