Post by soped on How to generate EtherCat xml from command line ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi I'm using codesys 3.5 SP4 Under tools->customize I have added the command "Generate ethercat xml" to my project so that I can export the configuration as an xml file. I can't find a way how to run that command from CLI, is that even possible and if a script is needed I would appreciate an example ?

Hi! I tried to start Codesys V3.5 SP11 program and this error message popped up (see attachment). Program worked fine last week. I tried to uninstall and then reinstall the program but it did not help. If I choose Ignore or Retry options the program works expect the UI is missing. Any ideas how to fix this?

Post by runtimevictor on codesys VLAN tagging ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, In Codesys I can't find where to configure Ethercat Master VLAN tagging? In Beckhoff in Infosys there is an attached image so you can see it... I would like to try ethercat master with VLAN, to try to have several ethercat masters on a single ethernet port... I imagine that managed VLAN switches are also necessary? Thanks.

Hello to all. I am testing the Codesys KNX package using a raspberry pi to determine if it fits my needs. Does anyone know the limitations of the package when you use it without a license? I searched for it myself but couldn't find any information on the matter. Thank you all for your help.

Post by spiritcore on Server not adding PLC ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I added new Gateway and I can see it connected. When I scan the server for PLC, it finds the PLC but when I click the Add To Server button, it shows "PLC was added." in the status. But I can't find the PLC in the list. I tried removing the gateway and re-configure everything again but it didn't solve. Any ideas?

Post by timvh on library is not available ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
1) In the library manager of your project select "Download missing libraries". 2) In the library manager open the "Placeholders" dialog. In here find the Placeholder which is not referenced to a specific library yet. Click in this line on the Library column and select the latest version of this library.

Is it possible to show a variable from a Frame Configuration in a Trace on that Visualization? I want to pass the FB for an AXIS_REF_ETC_SoE_Standard to the visualization and display live axis data in the visualization.

Post by davidking on Error, visualisation property handling, VISU_USEPROPERTYINFO ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Solution: Disable VISU_USEPROPERTYINFO define Go to Project → Options (or Project → Properties, depending on your CODESYS version). Find the section called Compiler Defines. Look for the define: nginx Copy Edit VISU_USEPROPERTYINFO Delete it from the list, or uncheck it if it’s a checkbox. Save your changes and try compiling the project again. → This is the right approach if you don’t need property handling for visualization elements.

Post by mqi2r on Newly created texlists wont appear in the selection dropdown ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For anyone with this issue, you may need to: Open the text list properties (right-click the text list once you create it). Select the Text List tab. Change the Download by option to Visualization. I was fighting this for so long. Once you do that, you should find your text list appears in the drop down when editing a visualisation.

I am struggling with this issue right now (again). I have nested structures with configurable array sizes. In the past I ever used parameter list. Very easy way! As of now I cannot find any solution. Ridiculous that they deprecated it without an alternative solution.

Yes, you are right. I think the help is pretty clear: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_library_development.html It helps you to find errors in the source code of your library if you want to create a library which is using pointers and you want to use your library on 32 and/or 64 bit platforms.

Enabling Anonymous Login 1. Navigate to 'Device' > 'Communication Settings' > 'Device'. 2. Next, click on 'Change Runtime Security Policy'. 3. In the new window, find and check the box for 'Allow anonymous login'. After completing these steps, you should be able to communicate with the OPC UA server.

Post by wiresplus on Connect to remote PLC via local pc and teamviewer ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, Depends on the architecture of your PLC. If the PLC is a PC-based item with a normal desktop environment, then you probably can. I find it simpler to install an IIoT Router in the panel, and use an encripted VPN to link to my office PC / Laptop on demand.
