Hi, I'm using Codesys control for Raspberry Pi in the latest version (4.11.0.0) When I try to install a license with the new application-based licensing, I have an error "returncode 403046401" (using codesys SP18) I updated to codesys SP20, and now I get the following error: "The selected conainer [0]: SN=..., Version=1.18, Chip=0, Rev=0 does not fit to your ticket. Please select a suitable one." The license I'm trying to install is a Codesys Control Basic L license, with a Codesys Visualization L option, according to the needs of my application. What can I do to activate my license ?

Here is the help sections for visual elements rectangle. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_elem_rectangle.html Under "Font Variable" there is "Color" which is a Dword, you can make a variable that changes colour within your code to the color needed. Note the format for the Dword variable is: colorVariable := 16#TTRRGGBB Where: TT = Transparency 00-FF RE = Red 00-FF GG = Green 00-FF BB = Blue 00-FF https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_animate_color.html

It seems that there is a limitation with the STRUCTs. Does anybody know, what’s okay to save (add to the recipe) and what’s not okay? Or is there another problem with my project? If I have only an array in the recipe definition everything works perfectly (see project).

Hello, from today, I got an error when I try to open 'Tools/Update Raspberry Pi' and I got this error: There is no value with the specified name associated with this subkey. This feature worked before. I did not do any changes to Codesys installation. Codesys version is SP19.1, and CODESYS Control For Raspberry Pi 4.8.0.0

The fix for this is when you install the control SL license, there is a checkbox for the Visu S license option. You must click this option. The Visu M is technically an upgrade to the Visu S, if this is license is not installed them the Visu M will fail as shown above. Thanks JoJo for the solution!

I'm trying to get the OPC server setup on my machine and currently I'm not having luck. I went ahead and got my license setup. However when I go to run WinCoDeSysOPC.exe I get an error message that I don't have the code meter licenses installed. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this issue?

An ENI file is needed for a 3rd party software solution that is being used over EtherCAT connection that emulates multiple Slave devices. This one cant be that complex, seen some legacy posts but no answers. Thank you! Bruce

need to be relicensed. 27 FW has an Wago Runtime for V3. So maybe using this would be an option too.

I need to understand how an external encoder ties into the SM_Drive_PosControl setup. I have an application where I have two hydraulic servo amplifiers. The encoder is a Temposonic Linear SSI encoder. How does the encoder get tied back into the SM_Drive_PosControl axis. Thanks.

Post by mp9876 on Problem using MeasureFrequence FB
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
Hi everyone, new at Codesys and PLC programming in general. I am using Codesys Win V3.5 SP20 I would like to measure an encoder's frequency output (obtaining that pulse train from Factory IO) and intended to use the MeasureFrequence FB (Intern/CAA/Utilities/CAA Mathematics/3.5.19.0). As mentioned in the title what I need to measure is low frequency, such as lower than 40hz (a cycle every 25mS) or so; I could even go lower frequency if required as this is for test purposes) therefore I am not expecting problem measuring a low frequency with that FB The library in question appears to be installed as I can retrieve it from the Library Repository. I can also see it from the Device's Library Manager. Problem arises when I am trying to instantiate this particular FB. I go like this: VAR MeasF:MeasureFrequence; END_VAR Please note that as soon as I start typing the "MeasureFrequence", the MeasureFrequence comes out as a viable option in auto-typing; seems to indicate that the FB is recognized somehow. But there is no way I can compile this as it comes back with the following: C0046: Identifier 'MeasureFrequence' not defined. Tried to rename that to ABC instead of MeasF; same issue. Possibly that the library is not properly installed ? Placeholder ? I would greatly appreciate a bit of guidance if possible. Thank you and regards, Mike

Good morning, Yes, this is a known bug that has been reported. For now, the only workaround is to open the function block instances from the device tree. Regards, -Shawn
