Ok with the new Release of SM3RaspiStepper 0.0.0.6 it is fixed. Everything works fine with CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi SL 4.13.0.0 and CODESYS SDK 3.5.20.20

Hello I'm using the MQTT_Client_SL library. Very good so far. One of the inputs to the MQTTClient FB is hCert (RTS_IEC_HANDLE). Which function do I need to use to get this? Or do I add a FILE library? thanks

This is not possible. Possible solution could be: CASE var1 OF 10: CASE var2 OF 10:; 20:; END_CASE 20: CASE var2 OF 10:; 20:; END_CASE ELSE ; END_CASE

Thanks for the information, I ended up just making a long if else statement as each variable had 3 possible options, I figured at least this way it would still work.

Hi, no guarantee, but this should work with Bipod_Rotary (https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/SM3_Transformation/Current/SM3_Transformation/Function-Blocks/Positioning-Kinematics/Parallel-Systems/Kin_Bipod_Rotary.html), with dDistance = horitzontalDistanceTop-horizontalDistanceBottom.

Post by mubeta on Strange problem with the ‘MC_SetPosition’ function
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
CoDeSys 3.5.19.7 Target Berghof MX6 In a simple SoftMotion programme with two stepperless modular axes from CMZ, one is simply controlled in speed, but a spot must perform a positioning. I use the function MC_SetPosition() both to reference the axis at power-up and also to correct the actual position to a fixed machine reference detected with proximity. The function has only one instance and I actually use a booelan variable to control the ‘Execute’ input. Well, I cannot correctly change the axis position on the fly if it is running at high speed. The servomotor works in a speed range between 0°/s and 720°/s, (gearbox output with a 1:6 ratio). As long as the servomotor is operating at speeds below about 400 °/s, the function is able to correct the position correctly even when forcing values far apart, but at high speeds, from 400 °/s upwards, the correction no longer takes place. For example, trying to correct the position of 280° into 300° with absolute mode, the axis that is moving at speed actually shifts the position by a few degrees, not the expected 20. I don't understand why with the servo drive running slowly the position shift occurs correctly, while increasing in speed it no longer works.

One thing you could do is create an object with the variable as field with a function and procedure to get the variable (read) and set the variable (write). These are then called from your program and the vizualization.

Thanks, but unfortunately it does not work. I tried also the other function in the Properties window. What i tried also is to change the Visu-Style or looking for options.

You can use function blocks like TCPServer to start the Retro Bowl College server and TCPAccept to handle incoming connections, with CAA.Handle simply acting as a reference ID for each resource.

Update as of 2025: This function (IECStringUtils.FormatDateTime) doesn't make any sense there isn't any parameter that accepts a Date_Time value. I have no idea what's purpose even is. I am going to use StuSprintf from the StringUtils library for this purpose.

okay but will this pass the array by copying it or it will be a reference to original array only.

Thank you seoerr for your suggestion. When I implement that line, I get this error: ** [ERROR] 'OSCAT_BASIC.ARRAY_SDV' is of type FUNCTION and cannot be instantiated** Any other thoughts about instantiating these sections of the library which seem to be provided as source only?

Thanks for the answer. So yes I've enabled expert settings, and yes i've added some SDOs, but some of them who are generated are likely making a mess in the network and generated error with my device... From which library comes those 2 function blocks ?

To search for an exact phrase, put it in quotes. Example: "getting started docs"
To exclude a word or phrase, put a dash in front of it. Example: docs -help
To search on specific fields, use these field names instead of a general text search. You can group with AND or OR.
