Hello everyone. I hope this is the right place to ask for help, this error is causing me a great amount of time loss and I really would like to end this nightmare. I don't know why but at times if I try to Browse -> Display Cross Reference on a variable Codesys just crashes. I'll attach the file with the complete crash report hoping someone can figure why it happend. I think that the unhandled exception comes from the PersisranceManager Module and is connected with the other big problem I'm facing: I cannot refactor in my project, if I'll try to refactor a POU name the whole POU will become "frozen", it's like its desynchronizing from the project and the project cannot find the pointer to the POU once I refactor it. And when I open the project a warning pop-up will show up with the frozen POUs name, but I cannot figure out what the warning is telling me. I'll attach every warning and error pop up the project is showing me, and thanks in advance to anyone who can figure something out.

Post by fajean on CODESYS control on RPi starts, shortly runs, then exits

I have a Raspberry Pi 4 we have been using for years to run CODESYS for development purposes. I recently have had to re-install the OS (Raspberry OS lite). The only change to the default configuration is not creating the "pi" user during install. I (apparently successfully) installed the 4.10.0.0 control on the Raspberry Pi. We have licences on a dongle. I am able to start the control. systemctl status shows it as running for a little while (exactly, precisely 30 seconds as per my tests, every time), then it becomes exited. I can restart the control, and the same thing happens again. Every time. In the brief moments it is running, I can log in to the PLC. Working fast and restarting the control many times, I have been able to configure users. I have been able to download my application. I have been able to run the application, and stop on a breakpoint. I have been able to connect with the licence manager and confirm the dongle is detected and licences are listed as OK. I see nothing wrong until the service just exits. I have found nothing in the logs. It is like the runtime just terminates with no error code or message after exactly 30 seconds. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi dgrard, I had the same issue for a long time, but on a WAGO webvisu. Now I'm glad that I can share my solution. I don't know if you are trying to use the webvisu or the target visu, but this works on webvisu: Get "go2rtc" and set it up according to the documentation. I'm running the Windows binary. Here's my example of the go2rtc.yaml config file (contains working example streams): api: listen: ":1984" # default ":1984", HTTP API port ("" - disabled) origin: "*" # default "", allow CORS requests (only * supported) static_dir: "www" # default "", folder for static files (custom web interface) tls_listen: ":443" # default "", enable HTTPS server tls_cert: "./SSL/fullchain.pem" tls_key: "./SSL/privatekey.pem" streams: # Streams with multiple links will fall back on the next link. ABUS TVIP48511: - rtsp://<username>:<password>@<hostname>:<port>/ch1/main - rtsp://<username>:<password>@<hostname>:<port>/ch1/sub # Diagnostic connections Kirchhoff Institute for Physics - Germany: http://pendelcam.kip.uni-heidelberg.de/mjpg/video.mjpg Blanton Bottling, Kentucky - USA: http://camera.buffalotrace.com/mjpg/video.mjpg Tokyo - Japan: http://61.211.241.239/nphMotionJpeg?Resolution=320x240&Quality=Standard Tampere Hacklab - Finland: http://tamperehacklab.tunk.org:38001/nphMotionJpeg?Resolution=640x480&Quality=Clarity Soltorget Pajala - Sweden: http://195.196.36.242/mjpg/video.mjpg Kaiskuru Skistadion - Norway: http://77.222.181.11:8080/mjpg/video.mjpg webrtc: listen: ":8555" #ice_servers: # - urls: [ "stun:localhost:3478" ] # username: "" # credential: "" Access the webinterface of go2rtc and get the link of your stream. Use the link as for your browser frame in the visualization. Depending on your device, you need to be able to access the file /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf or /etc/lighttpd/webvisu.conf and change the contents similar to this one, otherwise you'll get CORS and CSP errors in the browser and you won't be able to view the stream on the webvisu: # Webvisu specific settings $SERVER["socket"] =~ port_webvisu_used_any { url.redirect += ( "^/webvisu/?$" => "/webvisu/webvisu.htm" ) $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/webvisu/?" { var.response_header_policy_webvisu = ( # CSP for WebVisu, allowing inline sources.

"X-Frame-Options" => "SAMEORIGIN" ) # Response header policy for WebVisu setenv.set-response-header = var.response_header_policy_webvisu setenv.set-response-header += var.response_header_policy_common }

Post by rshabsh on Using Latch Variable in Alarm as input from text list
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
I am currently utilizing Alarm Managerβs Latch Variable 1 to display additional information related to alarms. However, instead of mapping this latch variable to a fixed PLC variable, I would like to dynamically update its text content based on the selected language in the system. To achieve this, I am considering using a text list that corresponds to different languages rather than directly linking Latch Variable 1 to a PLC variable. This approach would allow the displayed alarm information to be automatically translated according to the active language setting. Could you please confirm if this method is feasible within the Alarm Manager configuration? Additionally, if there are specific steps or best practices to follow when implementing this functionality, I would appreciate any guidance you can provide. Looking forward to your insights.

Hi, thanks for the fast response :) Yes I Have a .err file. Sorry I forgot to upload it. It is a binary file though... "Runtime goes in exception before the shutdown ?" I think it goes into exception at the same time as the power is lost...

Dear, When I use "__NEW" to dynamically create the object "Object_1", and assign this object "Object_1" to another object "Object_2". At this point, I use "DELETE" to release the object from "Object_2". At this time, I cannot judge whether the object has been released normally through "Object_1" (in fact, the object has been released theoretically). Thanks for you help.

It's probably because you have an INT in the input to the MUL function, which will then try to output an INT as well. INT variables can only handle values of -32768 to 32767. Your value of 523000 won't fit in an INT, so it turns into an invalid number. Use a DINT. This is usually better for working with time values anyway, because time values are all 32 bit. Or if you can't, use INT_TO_DINT(gvlp.detectie_nalooptijd_s) in the input to the MUL function.

Sounds feasible, but how would I create this object so that both applications would use the same instance of it. If this did work, it's still not really the solution I am looking for as it would mean mapping every variable I want to use on the hmi through this object vs I was hopping all the GVL variables would be available.

Hey mate, did you get to the bottom of this? If not, have you double checked the buttons are linked to the correct variables and/or performing the correct action? Have you tried always enabling the block to confirm false is moved to the variable if so?

Post by struccc on Wish: CODESYSControl.cfg - again
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
Before creating this topic, I was browsing the search results for CodesysControl.cfg - many results, and I remember very well, it's a problematic issue for a long time. To summarize: there were many requests for documentation on this file - the most comprehensive reply is: https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/ebbf851a3d/#eb85 Hi, not really, this is covered by the manual which you get if you use a runtime toolkit which is not free of charge. Maybe we need to extract the config file part from that documentation if that is possible. BR Edwin I am not sure how much is this relevant, since we buy SL License directly from CODESYS... I think it is a reasonable demand, to get documentation on the configuration entries affecting the documented behaviour of the runtime system and it's components The actual reason I bring up this issue again can be read here: https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/febad3cc40/#0e12 but mostly my frustration about noticing some new, unknown and undocumented entries in my configuration file. Again. And this happens a lot recently. Just some examples: Changes with SysFile - and mandatory use of IEC path Introduction of Mandatory user management File transfer service now disabled by default SysProcess - allowed commands The above mentioned CmpApp parameters... And finally (Regaridng windows install): With the newer versions, the installation directory (together with the configuration file) tends to hide itself to some super silly location under the roaming profile data of local system account. I am not sure if this change was documented somewhere, but was a very unpleasant one. Someone could please explain the reason and the concept of the introduction of this release specific directories (I am sure, there is a good reason) - how to use them properly? - How to re-introduce user configuration (to preserve configuration data between versions)? - How to do version - to version migrations properly? - How to keep old version of runtime available and ready to start with it's original configuration and application? - ... Therefore, the lack a regularly updated description of CodesysControl .cfg , including all the configuration entries, together with their default values for different runtime versions is really a big deficiency.* This should be done for all components storing or just seeking data from this file... (Maybe there is such thing but I failed to find???) It is regularly causing trouble when introducing a new version (together with the long awaited bug fixes and enhancements), what has changed it's default behaviour for security or other practical reasons. I agree this is very important, and it is logical to change the default options: But it must be documented historically, and make it easily available, so we can prepare better for the upgrade of the runtime. Forge talk is a great source, but not very practical for this kind of documentation purposes... Thanks in advance for CODESYS staff πππ (Ps.: It would look rather silly, if some members of the user community prepares this documentation on a Forge Wiki page... Or??? Should we?)
