Post by soped on How to generate EtherCat xml from command line ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi Under tools->customize I have added the command "Generate ethercat xml" to my project so that I can export the configuration as an xml file. I can't find a way how to run that command from CLI, is that even possible and if a script is needed I would appreciate an example ?

Post by trusty-squire on Which database to use? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
How large and how complex? It's tough to make a recommendation without additional details. The simplest thing is to just use data arrays (or even arrays of arrays). Not knowing your requirements, it might be sufficient and the simplest option is often the best. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_datatype_array.html You might also look into using Recipes? https://forge.codesys.com/prj/codesys-example/recipe-manageme/home/Home/ Some more complex options below. https://forge.codesys.com/prj/codesys-example/element-collect/home/Home/ https://store.codesys.com/en/mysql-library-sl.html

I use SoftMotion Light libraries in my CodeSys 3.5 project. Activated the license. But probably not all the actions were completed. In the configuration of the axes A message that the driver is running in demo mode. Please tell me what complete actions need to be performed. Thanks

Post by seweb on NTCIP ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello everybody, In an upcoming project we are supposed to control a display board via NTCIP. Unfortunately, I have not yet found out whether this is possible with CODESYS. Are there any libraries for this in CODESYS? Best regards

Hello, you probably fixed in this meanwile, but I think your problem comes from dependencies of other libraries. I see in the Project column of errors the "caa types extern" and "caa fb factory", that both have dependencies. Try to check there. Regards, Francesco

Post by sigurdrb on Codesys and error messages, warnings exceptions etc. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I tried some different libraries (CmpApp etc.) to find some global variables that I could read out as a variable in the codesys environment. Do any one of you know which libraries are best suited for this, and how I can read it out? My goal is to send messages, warnings etc. to the system that communicates to the PLC. Currently if something goes wrong I need to see the logfiles, or go online with the controller. I think I could save a lot of time if I could read the errors from our user interface that is connected to the PLC by TCP/IP.

Post by imdatatas on Import from XML problem ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello Everyone, When I try to import some POUs that were previously exported from another project as an XML file, I get an error like in attached image and the process does not complete. "There are no objects in the export file..." I am using SP21 Codesys IDE and I do not know which version this XML (*.export) file was previously exported with. Has anyone encountered the same problem? Regards, imdatatas

Post by tgf2024 on Dynamic I/Os Mapping ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi Jinlee, how are you? I have similar application requirements on my project. I have tried dynamic mapping, but the code cannot detect the IO module change when I did hot switch. Do you find the way of how to identify the module change dynamicly? Thanks.

Post by eschwellinger on NO SIGNAL ON POWER_ON FOR STEPPER MOTOR ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, how should that work? You need to download the example project and you need that structure of the project and one of the additional hardware sets https://forge.codesys.com/drv/sm3raspistepper/home/Home/ L298N or A4988, DRV8880. Important to have no GPIO in the project and have this additional tasks.

Post by ofey on Device parameter - ‘ModbusTCP Configuration’ ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi! Do anybody know how I can add and enable the parameter 'Default Modbus TCP slave' on a device? I am currently writing a program where the PLC shall be set up as a Modbus TCP client, but I dont know how to add parameters to devices in codesys. I'm pretty new to the codesys environment. The picture in the attachment is on a similar PLC project where I have not written the code. my goal is to add this parameter in another project.
