Try using a password instead of a public key to log into the controller. I have a video showing how to do this on a default installation of Ubuntu server, it should work the same for Ubuntu Core. https://youtu.be/rj0dOhgnGjs?si=352PmveEP7JXZnO- I sign in to the controller at about 6:40 in the video. I have never tried to remove the public key and revert to signing in using a password, but it looks pretty straightforward https://askubuntu.com/questions/745423/how-to-turn-off-password-less-login-for-ssh

Hi Under tools->customize I have added the command "Generate ethercat xml" to my project so that I can export the configuration as an xml file. I can't find a way how to run that command from CLI, is that even possible and if a script is needed I would appreciate an example ?

this is not easily. From Point of SL-Licenses Codesys didnt provide the informations how to do. We created an own CDS-Component for that Behaviour. This Informations are available for OEM, if you are an OEM you can find the Informations in the RTS-Documentation.

Hello to all! How can I read or write, via my main code (ST), to the registers present in the DO of my ethercat CoE servo drive? These objects appear in the list of the INITIALIZATION page, and from here I can only access them at startup. How do I access it in run time from my main PLC_PROGRAM?

I have found the solution, the CmpEventMgr version has to correspond with the 3sLicense version.

Hello, I'm trying to use the Web Client SL library, I installed it in the IDE (did not purchase a license yet, as this is still a proof of concept so demo mode is good enough) and added it to the library manager. However, when trying to define a FB of the type WebClient I get a "Identifier 'WebClient' not defined" error message, setting the type to Web_Client_SL.WebClient did not work as well. Opening the example project the FBs defined there give the same error message. From the problem in the example project I deduce this is not a syntax problem, so maybe a license problem, but there should be a working demo mode, so what am I missing? IDE v 3.5.21.30 Library v 1.12.0.0 Thanks

The stepper supports CiA402 maybe I can use a CiA402 library to controll the stepper motor. Has anybody experience with that?

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 or OR.
