you might have some slight inaccuracies with using a REAL. See here for an explanation: https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z0000019ZSMSA2&l=en-US It might not matter, depends on how accurate you need it. I usually stick with integer types for something like this

SysTimeRtcConvertUtcToLocal is marked as obsolete, but there's not hint on the actual implementation. Which function should I use instead? Edit: even the new online help is still using SysTimeRtcConvertUtcToLocal as example...

I am trying to do "update device" in a project which was saved in a different version of CODESYS using ScriptEngine, a dialog with 'Yes' and 'No' button popped up showing that "Do you want to upgrade the storage format for this project? -if you click 'Yes', storage format will be upgraded... -if you click 'No', storage format will not be changed..." I have to click the 'Yes' button automatically by scriptEngine. I know from others topics here in forum, that some dialogs can be auto-answered using system.prompt_answers. And I also get the messagekey of this dialog: Key: "<< No Key>>" Message: "Do you want to upgrade the storage format for this project? - If you click 'Yes',... i have tried using the system.prompt_answers command below, but the dialog was not auto-answered. system.prompt_answers["<<No Key>>"] = PromptResult.Yes Does someone know how to auto-answer the dialog using system.prompt_answers command with messagekey"<< No key>>"? or any suggestions to solve this issue, Thanks!

I am currently programming a language switch program. So, the text flickers between 'en-gb' and 'en-GB' in visuelems.currentlangauge and even if I put a breakpoint, it still flickers. Can you please suggest a solution? Thanks

Are you using Bookworm and which Rasperry PI? Check the logfile with ssh connection tail -f /var/opt/codesys/codesyscontrol.log It should work with 4.11.0.0 release. Just use the ABL licenses - (check the license metrix of your application)

I'm not sure, but maybe you have to configure the 750-652 first with the WAGO-IO-CHECK software to set it in RS485 mode?

Are you using the Wago Runtime - please check the version information on scan. Either 6.x.x.x or CODESYS 4.x x.x SL Runtime- and always check the plclogger in such cases.

Not sure what you mean but you can define a visu initialization program and call it once at the visu initialization step. Look in the Visualization Manager there is a possibility to define such a program.

Thanks Tim! This was exactly the functionality we were looking for. We are already using implicit checks to check for divide by 0 errors, we will add implicit checking for array bounds.

The green icon with an ! next to the device is concerning. Is the data type correct for the input, you are using a byte input but the description says string. Is there anything useful in the status tab?

Hi, you should have 'CODESYS Installer,' there you can manage your packages and installations. The version number looks like a softmotion package, try to install it. Or repair your whole installation with the CODESYS Installer.

To search for an exact phrase, put it in quotes. Example: "getting started docs"
To exclude a word or phrase, put a dash in front of it. Example: docs -help
To search on specific fields, use these field names instead of a general text search. You can group with AND
