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]

Do you use the same type Raspberry PI64 SL in the device tree? Which version of the Pi package / Runtime do you use? 4.16.0.0?

You should not use the "open dialog" to change the value. Instead use the input configuration "Write Variable" to change a variable value in the visualization. in the setting of this input command, you can choose the Input type (select dialog).

Post by gmau on RS232 Communication in CODESYS Control RTE V3 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I would like to implement RS232 communication into CODESYS Control RTE V3. I was writing the program testing it on CODESYS Control Win V3, where it worked fine. When I changed it to RTE, the communication was on, but I cannot send the data between PLC and scale - there is no or little response from scale - mostly one time receive and that is it. On Win V3 it was working fine. I read that I am supposed to configure CODESYSControl file for a proper communication using RTE, but even after that I can not get a stable and working communication. I am attaching my CODESYSControl and CODESYSControlUser data below, as well as I am sending the code from communication function. The communication should be through COM1 port of PC. CODESYS Version: CODESYS V3.5 SP21 + (64-bit) Runtime + Version: CODESYS Control RTE V3 Version 3.5.21.0 / CODESYS Gateway V3 - x64 Version 2.5.21.0 I would be much gratefull for any help. Sincerely,

Post by mtho on JSON Utilities - JSON file written with invalid structure ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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.

Post by sebastianrapi on Bibliothek: floatingpointutils ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
@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.

Post by bingo on PLC Shell commands via ST Code ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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.

Post by anderson on function block output ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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?
