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

Hi, Is there a solution found for the problem described in first post? Any version above Codesys 3.5 P19 hangs during start up. It makes no difference whether I simply start Codesys or open a project directly. I'm using Windows 10 Home edition. Thanks!

Hi. Has anyone managed to implement the MDI (Manual Data Input) functionality in CODESYS CNC? I'm using SMC_StringStream2 and SMC_ReadNCFromStream, but I'm getting the error: SMC_CNC_INTERNAL_ERROR. I'd really appreciate any suggestions beyond what's already available online.

I am using V3.5 SP20 and version for AC_Datalog is 4.3.0.0 But in the log I get "DataLogStorage_SQLite: Not able to open table." Why and how to fix that?

in case you are using latest hw revision, there have been added some mac adresses - for the 4.17.0.0 release this might solve it. If not we need to investigate deeper. If it is application related you need to check the plclogger.

Hi Artur, as mentioned by imdatatas, homing when not enabled is not supported in SoftMotion. If enabling before homing is not an option, an alternative might be controller based homing using MC_SetPosition. Best regards, Georg

You should use PLCnext if your device-hw is a PLCnext-un it. As I understand it you are using "CODESYS Control Win V3 x64".

Ok I'm closer as I switch using WSTRING but in Visualization it does not respect LINE BREAKS. Instead it shows $n. See attached image.

it should be something like: fbWebClient : WEB_CLIENT.WebClient; You need to use the "Namespace" of the library, not the name of the library itself.

You could try using the VUM_UserGroup struct from the VisuUserManagement library. I haven't tried this, but there is a variable for tAutoLogout to set the logout time.

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.
