Post by pistola on Making a Visu Element normally invisible and visible if variable is true ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You can use Not(Variable) in that Invisible spot. Example if you want it to be invisible when the bool is false then: Not(True) = False Not(False) = True

Post by svn123 on In Simulation Mode, logic is not executing ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Please check the attached snapshot. I am converting an int to real and storing in rVlv01_SV and then scaling the value using LIN_TRAFO. In the bottom Status Bar of Codesys, both RUN and SIMULATION are visible. When I enter value 100 as input to INT_TO_REAL instruction and press Ctrl-F7, the value can be seen at the input but the logic seems not to work. I searched for help but could not find anything relevant. What could be the reason. Codesys ver3.5.11 svn

Post by tommyk-mar on Smooth path is not working with SMC_NCInterpreter ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, Im using SMC_NCInterpreter and SMC_NCReadFile2 to read gcode program for CNC machine and what I have observed is that G51 and G52 is not smoothing the path. Machine stops in every point, what could I do to make machine pass through the points without stopping or what could allow me to use smooth path corretly if I use NCInterpreter. Im using it because I want to add variables to my gcode and its not possible directly from the CNC editor thats why I do use external file. Any ideas?

Post by talhaali on Persistent variables not working for Control Win ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi everyone, I am facing issues with persistent retain variables. It was working fine. I added a few new Persistent variables and it stopped working. If I do cold reset it holds persistent variable values. But when I close control win gracefully, and opens it again then it does not. Even, it is not saving ret file in application.

Post by mubeta on UNION statement is not supported in the ethercat data exchange ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi all, I am using a unionn statement for merge in integer data type some values that are received in byte from the i/o cards, but, using this simple and light technique, is not recognized by the ethercat data exchange and in fact the tags are not updated. In my opinion it's a very big bug.

Post by zoppp on Visu Frame-configuration___text will not work ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Yup, I've been having the exact same issue. A workaround that was working until Visu 4.8.0.0 was using TextList as the type in the frame configuration and then wrapping the text in quotes when configuring it. Im not sure if it will work with variables and I know it does not work if the type is text.

Post by scarter on Bit / Bool data types in function parameters ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Any reason BIT and BOOL data types are not interchangeable? Trying to make a function which takes a BOOL IN/OUT parameter (Not allowed to use BIT) In the main logic if I make a DINT variable, and want to use each bit on different functions CODESYS will not allow it.

Gentleman OMG, I made a huge mistake when i tried and moved shaft by hand i hold cover(as on photo) in my fingers. I was convinced that shaft has key but it there is not key. So when i turn cover it slide on shaft. When i take off cover and drive is in standstill, shaft does not move. So everything works perfectly

Post by andrax on CodeSys Raspberry pi I2C driver not found ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Sorry, wrong expression. You have a 64bit system, so do I. You can also use the 64bit runtime, but most bib and commands are 32bit and are not properly supported. I had read somewhere that there are problems with I2C. That's why I recommend switching to PI_SL and using the correct gpio.

Post by atone on Set DeviceID of an IO-Link Sensor at Runtime ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Answering to myself: is not possible according to the IFM support, this possibility has not been taken into account, although the interfaces and FBs in Codesys would apparently support it. So I ended up having to deactivate the sensor validation and the backup & restore functionality in the master and implement it in the PLC myself.
