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

Try OSCAT_BASIC and Function DW_TO_REAL. DWORD_OF_BYTE my although help. The Lib is open and free. It is not necessary to add this Lib, you can use/copy the source code just to get an idea.

Hi Jinlee, how are you? I have similar application requirements on my project. I have tried dynamic mapping, but the code cannot detect the IO module change when I did hot switch. Do you find the way of how to identify the module change dynamicly? Thanks.

Does anyone know a way to load a CNC program from CNC Editor faster using SMC_NCDecoder? It takes around 7 seconds to load 34 lines of G code and this is a problem for repeating the CNC program.

Hi! I have a problem, when I write Ethernet.Enable, I get an error ("Enable" undefined). Could you send me the program? I can't solve it, and I don't know if it's because I'm missing a library or some FB...

That works, thanks, I was trying to get a variable into the Position>Height and was struggling, then I was using absolute movement, never though to try relative movement.

Post by bertcom on STRING conversions to DWORD ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Good afternoon. I want to communicate with a Domino Industrial Printer using its Codenet protocol. The printer wants a series of Hexadecimal characters with no spaces or '00' characters. Because of that i chose the option to make the prefix and subfix for my code in a string. I have variable data in another string. With a complete program of a lot of CONCAT functions i eventually get the format of code that the printer accepts ( tested it with the hercules tool). Hercules String : 1B4F513030311B7532626C61636B04 The problem is : Codesys adds automatically 'code' to the code to show it is a string. Codesys string : '1B4F513030311B7532626C61636B04' The printer does not understand this. My idea is to convert the string datatype to an LWORD. I have no idea how to do this. I random types in STRING_TO_DWORD, as return i get 0. That didn't worked. Also on internet the explenations around string converting in codesys are very limited. If there in anyone who can explain me how to do it, i would appreciate it a lot ! Thank you!

For a permanent change, you may need to update the PLC configuration file or set the IP at startup using retained variables.

Thank you, Bingo. Your idea of adding the change to the start up process works. However, I am still intrigued with the fact that SysSockSetIPAddress(strEthernetPort:= '0', strIPAddress:= '192.168.2.12') is different from PLC Shell (setipaddr 0 192.168.2.12).:-(

Hi, unfortunately, in Softmotion you have only access to the combined fraction - the scaling factor from user units to motor increments. It can be accessed using MC_ReadParameter with parameter number 1054. increments = user_unit_position * fScaleFactor
