Post by k2saki on CNC / G01 Speed is very slow (or go-stop motion) in Continuous short segment . ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, gseidel. Thank you so much for your advice. I have created a program to preprocess G-code as follows 1.SMC_ReadNCFile2 2.SMC_Interpreter 3.SMC_CheckVelocities Then I put SMC_OUT_QUEUE in SMC_Interpolator. Where should I insert SMC_SmoothMerge and SMC_SmoothPath? Or are there any example link for it ?

Post by leandroct on Error reading files after runtime update from 4.0.0.0 to 4.8.0.0 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Since version 19 they changed how file access is handle. There are two solutions: 1. You change where the file is stored (need to go to: /PlcLogic/) 2. You can, if you don´t want to store at PlcLogic, add the following line in the CODESYSControl.cfg under [SysFile]: ForceIecFilePath=0 The CodesysControl.cfg is at C:\ProgramData\CODESYS\CODESYSControlWinV3x64\xxPROJECT_NUMBERxx\ Here the email they sent me: "with the 3.5.19 Version we changed how files are handled. See following issue: CDS-81506 - CODESYS Control SysFile system file access vulnerability. There are two solutions: 1. You change where the file is stored (need to go to: /PlcLogic/) 2. You can, if you don´t want to store at PlcLogic, add the following line in the CODESYSControl.cfg under [SysFile]: ForceIecFilePath=0 Here is the official release-note: [[COMPATIBILITY_INFORMATION]] With the activation of ForceIecFilePath the file access from IEC is now restricted to the configured paths only (file sandbox)! [SysFile] ForceIecFilePath=1 (new default) The standard path is the current directory, the PlcLogic subfolder or a configured path. Every file access outside of this path is configured via PlaceholderFilePath, for example access to temporary files or removable media: [SysFile] PlaceholderFilePath.1=/tmp, $TMP$ PlaceholderFilePath.2=/media/usb, $USB$ PlaceholderFilePath.2.Volatile=1 For more information see our tutorial FilePath & Placeholders. To restore the old behavior ForceIecFilePath may be configured as follows: [SysFile] ForceIecFilePath=0 BUT WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO LEAVE THIS SETTING AT ITS NEW DEFAULT VALUE! "

Post by duvanmoreno24 on Modbus writing on value change ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi all, I want to know if someone has an idea of how I can write on value change in Modbus Codesys. I have a Wago PLC and I was used to work with E-cockpit which it was quite easy to do that without the necessity to trigger any value when there was a change in the variable ( I will put how easy is ). how you can see just changing the trigger in "On value Change" will do that channel writing automatically when It detects a change in those arrays. On the other hand, in Codesys if I enable the rising edge in Codesys It ask me to put a bool variable and if triggers is going to write that value. That is making me that I have to create a function or a logic to detect the change, the problem I have is that doing that is very tedious. I first approach I got it was to create a Function who returns a bool when the value change, but I tried to keep the old value but what is happening is that in Functions all the data is erased every cycle so I can not keep any Old value. so in the Main program the trigger is going to be TRUE all the time due, the old value is cero every cycle. The second approach I got it was using a function Block (POU_1) and it works but I dont want to instance that function for every Channel or value that I want to check if the value change, Basically if I have 200 values to write trhough modbus I have to create 200 instances of that function which I think it is not practicall at all. It should be a better way to implement this as e-Cockpit from Wago Does. However, I haven't been able to know how.

Post by trusty-squire on How to adapt Codesys Control SL to custom board ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For general usage, these links might help you out. If you are looking at using I2C interfaces, examples from the Raspberry Pi will probably be useful, even if your board isn't a Raspberry Pi. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Examples/_ex_rts_serial_com.html https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Examples/_ex_raspberry.html If you're developing your own drivers, I can't help you there, although the link you provided will help. If you drill in deeper, the I2C page for example shows function block and method usage, etc. Good luck!

Post by berkdan on SMC_ReadNCFile2 is always busy ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I’m using CODESYS V3.5 SP18. When I try to use SMC_ReadNCFile2 to read the file /PlcLogic/gcode.nc, the function block's bBusy output remains TRUE indefinitely. Can you help me understand what I might be doing wrong? Here is how I’m calling the function block. The value of strFileName is 'gcode.nc'. fbReadFile( bExecute := bExecute, sFileName := strFileName, bAbort := bCycleStop, fDefaultVel := RetainVariables.xSlowVelocity, fDefaultAccel := RetainVariables.xAcc, fDefaultDecel := RetainVariables.xDec, b3DMode := TRUE, bParenthesesAsComments := TRUE, fDefaultVelFF := RetainVariables.xFastVelocity, fDefaultAccelFF := RetainVariables.xAcc, fDefaultDecelFF := RetainVariables.xDec, ErrorID => gCNC.eErrorId, errorPos => gCNC.eErrorPos, ErrorProgramName => gCNC.eErrorProgName, bBusy => bReadFileBusy, sentences => sentencesss ); Thanks in advance for your help.

Post by sandro66 on Application-based license Modbus Channels ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi Gatto, Using version 3.5.21.xx, it is no longer possible to use Modbus function blocks (I make extensive use of these FBs.)as shown in the example. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Examples/_ex_modbus_example.html The compiler detects one Modbus instance for each instance of the communication FB block. The example program above, although simple, reports 8 Modbus instances when compiled with the latest version. Codesys Support says that you must use fieldbus I/O mapping, but this will result in the loss of the ability to programmatically modify communication parameters. Sandro

Post by plunje on Sensor not set ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
A got a larger project but this very small example makes it clear. I have a button, and after it's clicked a lamp should flip on and stays on, and when the mouse-button is released it should stay on. When I try that in the PLC_PRG it works, but when I change it to a function block (seet attched demo proj) it isn't. I'm fairly new to PLC programming but are very experienced C# engineer, but this goes above my head...
