Post by sbrauns on Codemeter log error: API Error 200 (ENTRY NOT FOUND) occurred! ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I am using Codesyscontrol for linux 4.11 with an USB dongle with license. The log file from codemeter shows a constant error message which repeats every minute: Entry (6000437:8755) not found - Event WB0200 (ENTRY NOT FOUND), Request IP-Address local(IPV4) with UserLimit API Error 200 (ENTRY NOT FOUND) occurred! The log file from Codesyscontrol itself shows runtime licensed and I experience no other issues. But I am still concerned about the error message in the log file. Does anybody know what this is and how to fix it? thanks

What worked for me: Use SMC_SetControllerMode and set the nControllerMode to SMC_nocontrol. With that, you can control the drive via Modes of Operation(16#6060) and Controlword(16#6040) directly. Hope that helps, Cheers!

Add existing version (with SM drive) - without scan - disable under expert settings in the slave the revision check.

Okay, the solution was so simple... In my case, you first have to add the EL1918 and then the EL2904... then the connection is made automatically. I probably had something else before and then added the EL1918... then it doesn't catch the connection :/

Post by justthefacts77 on How to generate an "ENI" file ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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

BTW - I had a chat with a Beckhoff support engineer. He explained that if you use sync0 and sync1, two frames per cycle are expected.

Hi, I guess you don't have the right xml file. Download Beckhoff_EtherCAT_BKxxx_MDP.zip from https://download.beckhoff.com/download/configuration-files/io/ethercat/xml-device-description and install these in Device Repository.

Hello, I'd like to write some parameters to axes from inside a function block where I passed axis by reference, using ETC_CO_SdoWrite. Is it possible to get the device address from inside the function block? Please see example below. Thank you!

you have visited https://en.estun.com/?list_139/1380.html and registered and there are no ESI files at data download? Asked the manufacturer?

Yes, that's correct. I registered and visited the page at https://en.estun.com/?list_139/1380.html , but there were no ESI files available under the Data Download section. I also tried contacting the manufacturer directly, but haven’t received any response yet.

Post by eschwellinger on function block output ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I think you should use a piece of hardware in between your drive (pulse/direction) and the plc like for example Beckhoff EL2521 - so Ethercat might be to choice if you need CNC and SoftMotion. EK1100 and EL2521

Hi I was wondering the same thing. I managed to dynamically add an EtherCat Slave but I could not find out how to add a softmotion axis to it. Does anyone have an answer to this? Thanks in advance!

Thank you very much Florian The SoftMotionLight package is actually more expencive than the normal SoftMotion. What is exactly the difference? Does my PLC need to be compatible with SoftMotion or does this work with any PLC?

Hello @ph0010421 Thanks for you answer. I dont really get the state machine that you sent me. Is that only for enabling the drive? How can i make movement? Is this with these SDO's? What is SDO exactly? Sorry but i am a little lost (:|)
