Maybe check: - The library manager, are you maybe missing some libraries - Tools - CODESYS installer: update the CODESYS Visualization and Visualization support - Project - Project environment: maybe you need to update the visualization profile

Try using a password instead of a public key to log into the controller. I have a video showing how to do this on a default installation of Ubuntu server, it should work the same for Ubuntu Core. https://youtu.be/rj0dOhgnGjs?si=352PmveEP7JXZnO- I sign in to the controller at about 6:40 in the video. I have never tried to remove the public key and revert to signing in using a password, but it looks pretty straightforward https://askubuntu.com/questions/745423/how-to-turn-off-password-less-login-for-ssh

Hello, It happens that the offline project (the IDE one) loses the Download information. Because of this the code has to be download again. Is it possible to force this info somewhere? Is it possible to ignore it? How can I solve this ? Thank you

Which plc type is it: Either use Automationserver to do this or save the project archives instead of projects or use the source dowload function and reopen the application from plc. So you need to chose one of them.

Hi There, I took over a project from a colleague (in GTB) who left the company. When I took over his project, it wouldn't compile because some libraries were missing. I managed to recover quite a few libraries, but I can't find the library that contains the block functions shown in the image. Here are a few examples: Fb_RegMel_ISO Fb_DefModbus FbDecalConsSalSO Fb_Autor_FreeCool_CTA_C I'm a little stuck at the moment, so if you see a Facebook post that speaks to you, don't hesitate to get in touch! Thank you in advance for your help.

I tried to use C code in the library that I have been developing in the project, but without success. I tried to use the CODESYS Control SL Extension Package to generate XXXdep.h and XXXltf.h, but without success. Do you have a better example of how to generate these files and how to compile them?

Dear all: Question about scripting: I am creating a .NET program that is supposed to Open codesys, open template project, export a bunch of pou, then exit codesys. Launch works, Open project works, Export works, But how do i tell codesys to close itself? I can tell windows to terminate codesys, but i would prefer to do it properly. from __future__ import print_function import sys import System proj = projects.primary # We're interested in POU nodes: POUGuid = Guid("6f9dac99-8de1-4efc-8465-68ac443b7d08") # We collect all POU nodes in that list. pous = [] # From the parent node on, we recursively add POU nodes: def CollectPous(node): if node.type == POUGuid: pous.append(node) else: for child in node.get_children(): CollectPous(child) # Now we collect all the leaf nodes. for node in proj.get_children(): CollectPous(node) # We print everything just to know what's going on. for i in pous: print("found: ", i.type, i.guid, i.get_name()) # And now we export the files. for candidate in pous: # We create a list of objects to export: # The object itsself objects = [candidate] # And sub-objects (POUs can have actions, properties, ...) objects.extend(candidate.get_children()) # And the parent folders. parent = candidate.parent while ((not parent.is_root) and parent.is_folder): objects.append(parent) parent = parent.parent # Create an unique file name: if len(sys.argv) == 1: filename = "parent\\%s.export" % (candidate.get_name()) else: filename = "%s\\%s.export" % (sys.argv[1],candidate.get_name()) # print some user information print("exporting ", len(objects), " objects to: ", filename) # and actually export the project. proj.export_xml(objects, filename) proj.close() print ("script finished.") System.exit(0) // Dont work .NET: public static void Export(string path,string proj) { if (checkSettings()) { var p = new System.Diagnostics.Process(); p.StartInfo.FileName = Properties.Settings.Default.CSVersion +"\\CODESYS\\Common\\CODESYS.exe"; p.StartInfo.Arguments = " --Profile=" + qoute(Properties.Settings.Default.CSProfile) + " --culture=en" + " --project=" + qoute(path + "\\" + proj) + " --runscript=" + Properties.Settings.Default.LastOpenProjectPath + "\\INPUT_DATA\\SCRIPT\\Export.py" + " --scriptargs:" + qoute(path) ; p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false; p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = false; p.Start(); p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd(); p.CloseMainWindow(); p.Close(); } }

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.
