Post by danielbeers on Automation Server + Pi Gateway + PLC w/ CAN ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I have a project using some EPEC PLC's. Some of them are programmable using Ethernet and some use CAN. We currently have a Raspberry Pi that is acting as a gateway to the Codesys Automation Server and is successfully working for the PLC's communicating over ethernet. I am trying to achieve a similar result for the PLC's that have only CAN access. I have PEAKCan drivers on the Pi, and can successfully send/receive messages. But the Gateway does not recognise the PLC when scanned from the Automation server online. Is there a library or service that exists to translate the CAN messaging, to the Edge Gateway, and be able to achieve remote access with the Automation Server? Or is this not possible without creating something custom? Cheers, Daniel

you need a license server on the host or on any system in your environment.

Could you please check which EdgeGateway Version is up and running?

Did you find a solution for this? Experiencing the same when I'm setting up the server using "Communicartion manager"

which plc type do you try to add? Unique serial numbers of the plc are mandatory too.

you could add the ip of the license server by the deploy tool https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Control/_rtsl_license_controller_linux.html

Post by annd on Migration von "CODESYS Control for PFC200 SL" zu WAGO FW26 "CODESYS V3.5.19.2" ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ich hab's hinbekommen: Nach dem Controller Update hab ich ein neues Projekt gemacht und nur den PFC200(8212) eingefügt (es erscheint dann ein leerer Kbus und eine serielle Schnittstelle COM1). Dann hab ich mich am Controller eingeloggt und den Kbus (Rechtsklick: Geräte suchen) mit allen Modulen automatisch ergänzen lassen. Bei den leeren Modulen hab ich dann das E/A-Abbild in csv exportiert. Dasselbe hab ich bei meinem alten "PFC200 SL" Projekt gemacht. Und dann in Excel alle Variablennamen in die leeren csv kopiert und danach wieder im neuen Projekt importiert. Dann hab ich noch alle Programmblöcke, Tasks, Visualisierungen und auch Modbus TCP Master u. Slave und auch Modbus COM Port Master und Slave in das neue Projekt kopiert. Weiters hab ich alle notwendigen Bibliotheken im Bibliotheksverwalter eingefügt. Dann noch ein paar kleine Fehler korrigiert (ich musst einen anderen Block zum Lesen der Uhrzeit nehmen) bis ich das neue Projekt fehlerfrei übersetzen konnte. Dann konnte ich es auf den Wago Controller übertragen und direkt starten. Es sieht so aus, dass alles läuft. Gruß annD

Post by jari-koivuluoma on Problem trying Net Base Services 3.5.15.0 TCP connection ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have a need to send messages between 2 PLCs and I cant use network variables (because of size limit) so I tried writing this simple test program. This seems to work fine. I can send messages back and forth when a first "Start server" and then "Connect client". See the attached image. However, if I disconnect the client by setting ClientConnect to false and try to re-connect then the TCP_Client just gives me TIMEOUT error. When I stop and start the server again, then Im able to reconnect. How is this supposed to work? Why reconnecting wont work. There is not other way of disconnecting the client than setting xEnable of the TCP_Client to false. This is just a testing program and I will try it on 2 seperate devices once this works. PROGRAM PLC_PRG VAR CONSTANT mySize : UDINT := 255; END_VAR VAR Server: NBS.TCP_Server; ServerIpStr: STRING := '127.0.0.1'; ServerIP: NBS.IP_ADDR; ServerPort: UINT := 50000; ServerConnection: NBS.TCP_Connection; Client: NBS.TCP_Client; ServerRead: NBS.TCP_Read; ServerWrite: NBS.TCP_Write; ServerSend: STRING(mySize); ServerReceive: STRING(mySize); ServerConnect: BOOL; bServerSend: BOOL; IP: NBS.INADDR; ConnectedClientIP: STRING; ClientPort: UINT := 50000; ClientIpStr: STRING := '192.168.1.49'; ClientIP: NBS.IP_ADDR; ClientRead: NBS.TCP_Read; ClientWrite: NBS.TCP_Write; ClientSend: STRING(mySize); ClientReceive: STRING(mySize); ClientConnect: BOOL; bClientSend: BOOL; Error: BOOL; Message: BOOL; END_VAR // Server ServerIP.sAddr := ServerIpStr; Server( ipAddr := ServerIP, uiPort := ServerPort ); ServerConnection( xEnable := Server.xEnable, hServer := Server.hServer, ); IP := ServerConnection.IPAddress; ConnectedClientIP := F_Concat7( BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b1),'.', BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b2),'.', BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b3),'.', BYTE_TO_STRING(IP.S_un_b.s_b4)); ServerRead( xEnable := ServerConnection.xActive, hConnection := ServerConnection.hConnection, szSize := SIZEOF(ServerReceive), pData := ADR(ServerReceive) ); IF ServerRead.xReady AND ServerRead.szCount > 0 THEN Message := TRUE; END_IF IF ServerRead.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF ServerWrite( xExecute := ServerConnection.xActive AND bServerSend, hConnection := ServerConnection.hConnection, szSize := LEN(ServerSend)+1, pData := ADR(ServerSend) ); IF ServerWrite.xDone THEN bServerSend := FALSE; END_IF IF ServerWrite.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF // Client ClientIP.sAddr := ClientIpStr; Client( xEnable := ClientConnect, ipAddr := ClientIP, uiPort := ServerPort, udiTimeOut := 10000000 ); ClientRead( xEnable := Client.xActive, hConnection := Client.hConnection, szSize := SIZEOF(ClientReceive), pData := ADR(ClientReceive) ); IF ClientRead.xReady AND ClientRead.szCount > 0 THEN Message := TRUE; END_IF IF ClientRead.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF ClientWrite( xExecute := Client.xActive AND bClientSend, hConnection := Client.hConnection, szSize := LEN(ClientSend)+1, pData := ADR(ClientSend) ); IF ClientWrite.xDone THEN bClientSend := FALSE; END_IF IF ClientWrite.eError > 0 THEN Error := TRUE; END_IF

Hi Ricardo. I was having the same problem with Codesys and a Raspberry Pi 2W while using the GPIO uart. Your post helped me a lot. Thanks! But could not understand why MODBUS parity bit makes Codesys MODBUS COM driver stopping to work after first request transmission. Did you see this @eschwellinger ? Regards, Nelson

Post by sandro66 on Application-based license Modbus Channels ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I imported an old project created with version 3.51.20.50 into the new version 3.51.21.20. I'm using ModbusFB.ClientTCP v4.5.0.0. Strangely, I can no longer download the project due to a licensing issue I didn't have before. The number of Modbus channels has gone from 1 to 54!, and there's no license that would work. Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong? Thanks Sandro

Hi everyone, is it possible to use selfsigned/created certificates (eg. with X - Certificate and Key Management) as a OPC UA Server certificate in the Security Screen? As far as I know I can only upload client certificates to the PLC and move it to "Trusted", "Untrusted" and "Quarantined". Same question is on sps-forum.de
