Post by matteodigani on Error using function block "Write alias address" ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I've got a problem using the function block "Write alias address" (ETCStack library 4.9.0.0). this is the code: EtherCAT_1(); IF EtherCAT_1.ConfigRead AND enable THEN CASE seq OF 0: exec := FALSE; T.IN := TRUE; T.PT := T#10S; T(); IF T.Q THEN seq := 1; T.IN := FALSE; END_IF ; 1: T.IN := FALSE; T(); //THIS ONE WORK CORRECTLY! WrAliasAdd.xAbort := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.usiCom := DWORD_TO_USINT(EtherCAT_1.InstanceNumber); WrAliasAdd.wSlaveAddress := 1002; WrAliasAdd.xAutoIncAdr := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.uiAliasAddress := 19; WrAliasAdd.udiTimeOut := 3000; IF start THEN exec := TRUE; ELSE IF NOT error THEN start := TRUE; END_IF END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xDone THEN start := FALSE; done := TRUE; error := FALSE; exec := FALSE; seq := 5; END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xError THEN start := FALSE; done := FALSE; error := TRUE; exec := FALSE; END_IF ; 5: exec := FALSE; T.IN := TRUE; T.PT := T#1S; T(); IF T.Q THEN seq := 10; END_IF ; 10: T.IN := FALSE; T(); //THIS ONE GIVES ME AN ERROR! WrAliasAdd.xAbort := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.usiCom := DWORD_TO_USINT(EtherCAT_1.InstanceNumber); WrAliasAdd.wSlaveAddress := 1006; WrAliasAdd.xAutoIncAdr := FALSE; WrAliasAdd.uiAliasAddress := 25; WrAliasAdd.udiTimeOut := 1000; IF start THEN exec := TRUE; ELSE IF NOT error THEN start := TRUE; END_IF END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xDone THEN start := FALSE; done := TRUE; error := FALSE; exec := FALSE; seq := 99; END_IF IF WrAliasAdd.xError THEN start := FALSE; done := FALSE; error := TRUE; exec := FALSE; END_IF ; ELSE ; END_CASE WrAliasAdd(xExecute := exec); END_IF The first one slave ethercat works correctly, but the other one gives me an error. Attached the ethercat configuration of the devices. All the devices are set "Optional". So my idea is to enable only the first one (1002) and the fifth one (1006).

Post by felipemsgarcia on Axis EtherCAT address ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, Thank you for your answer. I'm afraid I was not clear on what I was trying to achieve. I'm trying to change parameters and command axes from inside a function block and the first thing that came to my mind was pass both the EtherCAT slave and axis to the function block (as image attached). But, I believe it's worse than just pass directly the EtherCAT slave address to the function block (is it???). However I was wondering if there was a way to get the EtherCAT address directly from the axis, so I don't need to pass the EtherCAT slave nor the EtherCAT address to the function block. Thank you again!

Post by installwhat on C0077 on one machine but not another ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
It doesn't load differently codesys seems to be behaving differently. Original version of ethercat master in project archive is 3.5.15.50, compiler is 16.4 as is codesys I'm using. It builds fine in vm and not on local machine. The reason is not obvious. It builds on local machine with ethercat master at 3.5.16.0. I'd really appreciate advice

Post by jvfred on CodesysHMI.exe: Start Error ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have used Codesys HMI SL on several projects. Today I turned my PC on to start building another project and received the following error message when I tried to start my device: "CodesysHMI.exe: Start Error One of the following licenses is required: CodeMeter 101597:13 Failure reason: CmContainer Entry not found, Error 200 CodeMeterAct 5000304:13 Failure reasons: CmContainer Entry not found, Error 200" I have tried reloading HMI SL and even updated to the current version with no success. I am using HMI SL version V3.5.20.10. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Post by pazderai on CanOpen write issue ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Thank you for an answer. Unfortunatelly, it doesn't work. The slave needs command byte as follows 0x22. It means expedited transfer where s-bit is not set, therefore data length is not specified. If I use segmented mode by CiA405.SDO_WRITE_DATA it produce command byte as follows 0x21 which is unfortunately supported by the slave and it returns with error 0x05040001 - SDO Abort Code -Client/server command specifier not valid or unknown. I can use CAN API low level to overcome this problem where it is possible to set 0x22 as a command byte, but than I can use user interface to set the communication probably, because I thing that machine expert uses library CiA405.SDO_WRITE for setting the slave. Or am I wrong?

Post by hardcoder on EtherCAT Mailbox Gateway ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi all I found that in the last Ethercat master release (4.8.0.0) the Mailbox Gateway feature has been added. This would be useful for me to connect to a specific slave in my system, since its configuration software supports this type of gateway communication. Anyway I don't find usage information or examples. At the moment I tried to enable it in the ethercat master device settings and I configured with an IP address on the subnet of the ethercat adapter (i.e. ethercat nic configured with static ip 192.168.10.100 subnet 255.255.255.0, mailbox gateway configured to 192.168.10.30). I expected it would have responded to ping commands on the address but nothing happens. I am missing something?
