IF you have an USB interface type in "Peak_USB" for CAN card driver (Name of CAN card driver). No need to add libraries for communication via CoDeSys Gateway. For other card types contact PEAK support and they will help you. Regards,

I use ethernet ip scanner and the connection type is set to multicast. After running the PLC, the ethernet IP will have a connection timeout every 10 seconds. What is the reason for this error?

So it's currently mapped to an array of BYTES? Can you create a UNION? TYPE sBytesString : UNION AsBytes: ARRAY[0..127] OF BYTE; AsString: STRING(128); END_UNION END_TYPE Map it to the bytes, read it in the STRING!

Thanks, that's what I thought initially. The point is that I can't select a String type variable. See the attached image

IF you create an ENUM {attribute 'qualified_only'} {attribute 'strict'} TYPE E_IO : ( FIRST := 0, SECOND := 1 ); END_TYPE You should be able to access the array items like: IOCard_OUTPUT[E_IO.FIRST]

Post by mtho on JSON Utilities - JSON file written with invalid structure
CODESYS Forge

I'm using the JSON Utilities SL library to write configurations in my program to a file. I'm generating the JSON data using the builder function block and all appears to work correctly. When I write the jsondata to file, I'm finding that some of the JSON elements are not being written in the right location in the file. Rather than writing they keys under the parent object, they get written outside the root JSON object at the end of the file. If I then try to read the file back into the program, I get an invalid_structure error. I don't get any errors when populating the JSON data or when writing the file. I attached an example of the JSON writer output. The problems begin with key P200. Each P200 should go under MBR1 through MBR3. Among the rest of the keys, they are supposed to be under different parent objects. I am using default values for wsLineBreak and encoding.

I'm trying to make a CNC machine, but I'm having problems because the drive I'm using only has the option of communicating through digital inputs. In this case, I should use the CLP's digital outputs to communicate with it, correct? However, in the function blocks it seems that they are already pre-programmed and I didn't find the pulse output options, for example, so that I could associate a digital output from the PLC to connect this to the drive's pulse input. My question is: is it possible to associate the pulse output of the function block with a digital output of the PLC? and how to do this?

@Strucc.c: thanks very mutch. Yes, I think that was the problem. I tried yesterday a similar function, i have found: IEEE32 in REAL FUNCTION IEEE32_TO_REAL : REAL VAR_INPUT IN:DWORD; END_VAR VAR PTREAL:POINTER TO REAL; END_VAR PTREAL:=ADR(IN); IEEE32_TO_REAL:=PTREAL^; END_FUNCTION REAL in IEEE32 FUNCTION REAL_TO_IEEE32 : DWORD VAR_INPUT IN:REAL; END_VAR VAR PTDWORD:POINTER TO DWORD; END_VAR PTDWORD:=ADR(IN); REAL_TO_IEEE32:=PTDWORD^; END_FUNCTION http://www.oscat.de/community/index.php/topic,357.0.html And this works perfect. Now, the only thing that isn't clear is the libary "FloatingPointUtils, 3.5.17.0 (System)"... For me, the libary doesn't work. But the problem is now solved. Thanks a lot.

Suppose you need to switch PLC IP dynamically between 192.168.1.10\192.168.2.10, First, set PLC IP to 192.16.1.10. Create a PGVL with a flag ‘xUseSecondry’ xUseSecondry : bool ; create a function that use socket to update IP: FUNCTION fSwitchIP : bool VAR_INPUT useMainIP:bool; END_VAR --------------------------------CODE------ if useMainIP then SysSockSetIPAddress(‘0’, ‘192.168.1.10’); PGVL.xUseSecondry := 0; else SysSockSetIPAddress(‘0’, ‘192.168.2.10’); PGVL.xUseSecondry := 1; end_if Now, if during execution, you need to switch IP, call the function ‘fSwitchIP()’, Set input to 1 for main IP, 0 for secondary IP. In order to set secondary IP at startup, you can do the following: in your PLC_PRG add a flag: xInit : bool := 1 ; and the code: if xInit then if PGVL.xUseSecondry then fSwitchIP(0); end_if xInit := 0 ; end_if *Alternative way is to use system events.

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
.
