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?

The IoT library contains a Web Socket library. Maybe this provides your required functionality. See https://store.codesys.com/en/codesys-iiot-libraries-sl.html

Do you think there'd be a way to turn this into a library? How would I2C_master be passed down to POU FBs?

High, and Thanks, but how could I guess about this library. Normally it should be added automatically! Thanks again. Best regards.

I have found the solution, the CmpEventMgr version has to correspond with the 3sLicense version.

Post by siscu on Raspberry i2c master device
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
I want to implement an extended I2C master for Raspberry Pi Control. I was hoping for it to be as easy as creating a library with a FB that extends i2cMaster and associating it with a device following the forge drivers documentation, but I haven't managed to make it work as the driver behaves only as an i2c slave. I'm thinking this is because the forge forum only talks about extending i2c, and the master portion is omitted since most users won't want to add a custom one. I'd like to know if I'm doing something wrong. Is it really possible to make an I2C master extension device? If so, are there public examples we can check out? Any info on this topic will be appreciated.

I have tried downgrading and it seems fine now. I am now on version 4.3.0.0 for the library. Mainly the PN controller caused the issue for me. Funny weird is that even the PN controller versions 4.3.1.0 and 4.3.0.0 cause the error. Version 4.2.0.0 works fine.

Is there somewhere in the Codesys help files that generally details what configuration options are available for this file, and what details it logs regarding the configuration file? Or is that going to differ by libraries being used? Thanks!

Hi kenth1973, it is not a matter of who created the function block. It is just that we don't have, and don't provide, documentation about internal implementation details... Hope you can understand that, Georg

I've been searching through these libraries, syssocket and net base services and they all seem to use the same structure for IP address for the connect function, SOCKADDRESS. At a glance, it doesn't look like that'll work, maybe it's just missing in the documentation somewhere?? I'm wondering if anyone has done it.

Hi I was wondering if there's a pattern I can employ to acheive what you're doing but with a "reference to" and also allowing for online changes? Someone told me that the new beckhoff keeps references safe during online changes but all the documentation I've found suggests that's not the case. The easiest thing is to use fb_init for normal vars and pointers and references can be added in the function body every cycle and this allows for method calls after so far as I can tell.

Okey, thank you! Do you think it is something in this library, that makes it possible to do the configuration in a PRG? https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/IODrvEtherCATDriver/Current/IoDrvEtherCAT.html#id1 I think the codesys modbus libraries support configuration and connection to modbus slaves without having to add the slave devices in the device tree. Just do it from function blocks inside the program. I was hoping for something similar with EtherCAT.

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.
