Post by berebri on TLS-Verschlüsselung bei MQTT-Client - CA Zertifikat prüfen ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hallo zusammen, ich bin dabei mit MQTT_Client_SL eine verschlüsselte Verbindung zu einem MQTT-Broker (mosquitto) aufzubauen. Das funktioniert auch. Jetzt möchte ich das Zertifikat vom Broker verifizieren, ähnlich wie das auch bei dem Programm "MQTT Explorer" möglich ist (dort funktioniert es). D.h. ich möchte das über das Zertifikat der CA verifizieren, dass ich mit dem Client verbunden bin. Kann mir da jemand Hilfe geben was ich dazu machen muss? Ich vermute mal, dass ich dazu NBS.TLSContext verwenden muss und habe dazu auch einiges gelesen, konnte es aber bei mir nicht ans Laufen bringen. Wie bringe ich dem Client bei, über NBS.TLSContext das richtige CA-Zertifikat für die Verifikation zu verwenden? Kann mir da jemand bitte helfen? Dankeschön :-)

Post by levih on FbHTTPs_Get how to get data from a website and use it in codesys ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You get an array of DWORD into your receive buffer. You need to process this into usable data, before you can fit it into your DUT. I've made it work using FbWrite_ToIEC_ByRule in stead of Fb_JSON_ParseAndModify. I've attached images of the code. You receive the data into ARRAY[0..1023] OF DWORD. Then you use that array as the input for fbWrite_ToIEC_ByRule. To get the output from this you define a rule to fit the expected data structure including nesting levels. The you feed the rule into FbWrite_ToIEC_ByRule and then you can set the output to be of your DUT type.

Post by dkugler on CoDeSys V3.5.19.7 Code erzeugen dauert extrem lange ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ich hatte einige Jahre Codesys in einer VM laufen. Das habe ich vor allem wegen den sehr langen Compilierungs- und "Projekt speichern"-Zeiten wieder aufgegeben. Mein Hauptprojekt hat eine Größe von 14MB, erzeugter Code ist bei 20MB und enthält über 50 Visualisierungsseiten. Bei mir dauert das Code erzeugen mit SP20 P4 ca. 1 Minute. Mein Laptop ist ein i7 3.1GHz 16BG RAM und 5-6 Jahre alt, also wahrlich keine Rennmaschine. Ich denke dass die Übersetzungszeit extrem vom Projekt, den notwendigen Bibliotheken, Virenscanner(temporär abschalten, besser? schlechter? gleich?), gleichzeitig laufende Windows-Programme etc. abhängt. Ich schließe generell während dem Programmieren alle anderen nicht absolut notwendigen Anwendungen, um Codesys den Zugriff auf möglichst viel RAM und CPU-Leistung zu ermöglichen. Viel Erfolg bei der Suche nach dem Flaschenhals!

Post by hclai on Maximum Array Index Issue ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I was trying to use a table object in visualization. I want to dynamically show the valid rows in the table. However, it does not work when there is 1 row. i put the maximum array index to 1. it does not show the 1st row. when i change to 2, it show the second row only. my project with older visualization profile version is working perfectly fine. I did some test and realized that i must use a Row Selection variable to change from 0 to 1. With this change of Row selection, then the row 1 will show up.

Post by alsiddhartha on TextList name error (fake) ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I’m developing a program and for some reason I got this error: C0193: Name '2,Recipe #2GVL' is no valid identifier I was creating a combo box and creating a TextList for my recipe. I couldn't find where the error was, until in the combo box properties in the 'Text List' property in the options it gives me to select, I found '2,Recipe #2' to be able to select (I never created a list with this name) and I can't find a way to delete that option or I can't find where that list is. I tried to delete the TextLists, delete the combo box, to clean the project, but the error still there. How can I delete this option (2,Recipe #2)? Or how can I fix this error?** Thank you.

Post by manuknecht on Using an Axis of an Axis Group in Torque Conctrol ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I don't seem to be able to use an axis, which is part of an Axis Group in torque control mode. I call the SMC_SetControllerMode FB to switch from position to torque control mode, followed by the SMC_SetTorque FB to set the desired torque. This works flawlessly for most axes, however if an axis is part of an axis group, switching the controller mode seems to work without any issues, but the desired torque is never set. SMC_SetTorque does not return an error, but fSetTorque of the axis is never changed. Disabling the axis group before does not change anything, but if I use MC_UngroupAllAxes before changing the controller mode, it all works as it should. Is there no way to control a single axis in torque control, if it is part of an axis group?

Post by joerg-schneider on SVN: "Include externals" Fehlermeldung ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ich habe eine Bibliothek unter Subversion verwaltet und verwende Teile davon in anderen Subversion Projekten mit "Include externals". Wenn man die Bibliothek mit "Copy (Branch/Tag)" kopiert, lässt sich die Kopie nicht mehr mit "Include externals" in anderen Projekten einbinden. Es kommt eine Fehlermeldung, dass ein Pfad nicht gefunden wurde (siehe Anhang). Auch wenn man das Bibliotheksprojekt direkt auf dem SVN Server kopiert (mit Tortoise SVN), kommt die gleiche Fehlermeldung beim Versuch die Kopie mit "Include externals" in anderen Projekten einzubinden. Ich nutze Codesys 3.5.20.60 mit Codesys SVN 4.6.2.0. Wie kann man Projekte auf dem SVN Server so kopieren/verschieben, dass sie später mit "Include externals" in anderen Projekten verwendet werden können?

J'ai joint les différentes captures d'ecran, j’explique ce que j’ai dejà fait fait : - j’ai isolé le code du stepper dans un unique projet afin de déceler d’où venait le problème afin de ne pas modifier totalement tout le projet. Ce que j’ai fait: J’ai supprimé les bibliothèques et j’ai réinstallé, j’ai les bonnes versions. J’ai supprimé le 750-671 du KBUS je l’ai réinstallé pareil. J’ai Nettoyé le code pour pouvoir le recompilé pareil. Je précise la version de mon codesys est : V3.5 SP21 patch 1 J’ai joint les différentes captures d’écran: les bibliothèques, le code de test, les 34 erreurs.

Post by viksym on How to get the motor scaling value from code ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
If anybody finds this in the future, I managed to do it like this: scalingValue := EncoderPulseCountPerRev / ABS(AxisName.fScaleFactor); No need to use MC_ReadParameter as I am able to read this value directly from the axis object. Using an absolute value of the fScaleFactor is there in case the axis is set as inverted, in which case it would be a negative value. I was not able to figure out how to get EncoderPulseCountPerRev programatically, but since all my servos use an encoder with pulse count per revolution of 16#800000, the final equation looks like this: scalingValue := 16#800000 / ABS(AxisName.fScaleFactor);

The Special characters that I need to inclue inside the string are as follows; Null Bell Carriage Return I have a TCP_Write command that I am sending to an external device. In order for that device to function properly it needs to see the string with the null and bell characters as the header, followed by the desired command, terminated with the carriage return. Any reference sheet or how to write this in the actual string would be greatly appreciated.

Post by dkugler on Webvisu Combined Authentication ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
you are able to do this all in one screen. It is possible to set the rights of every element to visible but not editable for the user "none". so everyone is able to see this elements, but can't do any changes. At the login button you set the rights to editable for the user "none" to be able to go to the login. Every element that should be hidden before logging in, set the rights visible and editable only for "higher" users. Hint: to change rights you are able to select more then one element and edit rights for all at the same time. Saves a lot of time! Good luck!

Post by chloereed on Creating Boot Application not working ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
From what you describe, the boot application files are in the right place, but the key step you’re missing is how the runtime knows which application to load. In most cases with CODESYS Control Win, you don’t need to edit CodesysControl.cfg manually. Instead, once you’ve created the boot application (Application.app and .crc), copy them into the runtime instance directory (for example …\E84889DB), then restart the service. The PLC should automatically detect Application.app and start it. If TargetVisu still doesn’t open, double-check that the visualization settings are enabled for TargetVisu (Project → Devices → Visualization), and that you built the project with visualization included before creating the boot application. Editing the config is rarely required unless you’re running multiple applications ball orbit

Hello! Opening a project from a python script given at the CODESYS command line does not work for me with a file based storage project. Example: Running projects.open("test.project", primary = True) works but converting the project to a file based storage project and then give the folder name as an argument to project.open Running projects.open("test.fbsproj", primary = True) does not work. We decided to work with file based storage for the project. Is there a scripting API for file-based storage to e.g. convert it while running the script back or how to open file based storage project with projects.open? Thank you! voffi

Post by beavel on Customizing FileOpenSave Dialog and Keypad Integration in Visualization ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi all, I'm looking to adjust the visualization of the FileOpenSave dialog. Is there a library or visualization file associated with this dialog that can be extracted, customized, and re-imported into the project — similar to how the user management dialogs can be handled? Alternatively, is there a supported way to replace or override the default dialog with a custom one? Also, is it possible to configure the FileOpenSave dialog to use a custom keypad for text input? The rest of the project uses a custom keypad due to readability concerns (the default one is too small), and this inconsistency is now quite noticeable. Any guidance or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! @thk @eschwellinger @sheberle
