Post by pernockham on How to recognize licenses SMALL, MEDIUM, LARGE by CmpCodemeter ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Solved finally, in short by: listening to eventId = EVT_CmpMgr_LicenseState, make a callback, extract the event-parameter which contains the RUNTIME_LICENSE_STATE. This gives me the license state as LICENSED / LICENSED_LOS / DEMOMODE etc. What Im not certain of at this point is this the aggregation of all three licenses or just the RUNTIME? Ie, what if my CONTROL-license is ok but my Visu-license is to low, will that set LICENSE_LOST, or would I need other listeners to find out if my VISU will shut down?

This is still a huge problem. Does someone know how to update the frame references (not manually for every frame-element...)?

Post by pistola on Making a Visu Element normally invisible and visible if variable is true ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You can use Not(Variable) in that Invisible spot. Example if you want it to be invisible when the bool is false then: Not(True) = False Not(False) = True

What version of codesys? Need to avoid in any specific element? Try writing %s in the text, it should work. Or better yet, attach a screenshot.

Post by dogulas on Removing a symbol from the IEC Symbols Editor grid ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
gatto, That works. Thanks. Typically I use my mouse more than my keyboard. That's why I was looking for a delete option from the right-click context menu or a delete button on a toolbar at the top. It never occured to me to use the keyboard. It might be a little more user friendly if they allowed a mouse wise ability to remove a line from the grid as well as the DEL key. Just a suggestion. Thanks for your help.

Post by gabor-n on PNIO Connect Parameter Error ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
It's a bit confusing, the two RPI is the same (board, OS, runtime, programing with Codesys V3.5 SP20 P2) but the one has a codesyscontrol.cfg file and the other has a codesyscontrol_user.cfg file. Shouldn't be the same? And because I over Codesys 3.5 SP 12 this would be the '_user.cfg' for both. Attached...

Post by s1mon on Two OneWireMaster on one Raspberry PI 5 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
If I add "PlaceholderFilePath.2=/sys/devices/w1_bus_master2, $OneWire2$" to the CODESYScontrol.cfg I can use a 2nd OneWireMaster in the Codesys Runtime. But then my EtherCAT_Master is not working any more. Any Idea? Is there any instruction or documentation how a 2nd OneWire Bus Master can be used within Codesys Runtime on a raspberry pi 5?

Took me a while to work on this again. I testes today with a fresh setup and it works now. My OneWireCycle tasks runs for around 10seconds. I guess my mistake was that I put the cycle task for the OneWire Task to a too small number. Thx for the support!

Post by nmcc on Viewing PDF in WebBrowser Visual Element ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am trying to show a PDF in a WebBrowser element. I have the file saved to the drive of the HMI/PLC. I am linking it in the URL parameter of the WebBrowser using the following directory link. 'http://localhost:8080/$$sdcard$$/FileName.pdf'. This allows for the program to download without any errors. When I navigate to that screen it is just a white box and nothing shows. I attempted putting the same link in the show parameter and I get a loading icon on my cursor when monitoring the HMI with my PC. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Post by elsmart on Sequential read and triggering of Modbs RTU channels in application ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello I need some help understanding how to use Modbus RTU (COM port) in Codesys enviroment. I defined a Modbus Server device (slave) in device tree and added some channels to read from (function 3). Also I set trigering mode to Application. I have a POU in which I want to trigger each channel one after the other something like this (C code for better visualisation): for (int i = 0; i < channelsCount; i++) { triggerChannel(channelsArray[i]); // Start transmission while(channel.xBusy); // Wait for transmission to complete } I have found ModbusChannel function block documentation but examples are scarce. I don't understand how rising edge triggering works. What would be the best solution for achieving sequntial channel triggering? What is the common way to read multiple Modbus channels once every time a specified POU is executed?

Post by jtebokkel on Access to the path *** is denied ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am also having this issue. It was working fine for the first 2ish months and is now throwing this error. I can just try and go online again a second time and it works. I'm wondering if there is an environmental variable or something that isn't set that is causing it to use an empty path as a temp directory. The empty path will be the location the app is running from which is that path C:\Program Files\CODESYS 3.5.19.50\CODESYS\Common. The permissions don't allow a normal user to write to that directory which causes the error. It also only seems to happen when there are changes or the build has been cleaned.

Is there a way to move the slave axis across the zero point of the master axis with variable start and stop points? For example: Slave start at 270° and end at 50°. thanks :)
