Post by nathant on Saving variable values on power cycle (RevPi Connect) ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, this seems to be a known issue, but persistent/retain variables don't seem to work properly on RevPi devices. Is there a workaround to this? All I need is for a few configuration variables to be remembered through power cycle.

I'm now circumventing the problem by creating a separate TCP client for all Write actions. Upon registering a changed variable, I enable this client, until the change is processed.

Post by pistola on Case Function - Multiple Conditions, Is it possible? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Thanks for the information, I ended up just making a long if else statement as each variable had 3 possible options, I figured at least this way it would still work.

thank you, i tried your library and device description but i don't get analog values. Do i something wrong? i also got an library error at the I2C_BASE functionblock the calcCycleTime gave an variable size error, so i added thet conversion from ULINT_TO_UDINT.

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 tvm on Passing properties as VAR_IN_OUT variables. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Use a VAR_INPUT for properties. The reason for the error is that you can't get a reference to a property. Using a VAR_INPUT will copy the property to an input variable.

You can write any expression that evaluates to TRUE/FALSE in that property, you can also call a method from the property.

Put %f in the "text" field and rValue in the "Text variable" field. You could also have a look at the possible placeholders: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_placeholder_with_formatting_sequence_in_a_string.html

Post by dogulas on numeric text box control ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am using TargetVisu in my v3.5 sp20 p6 (64-bit) project. I see no control that will allow me to bind, edit, and display a LREAL variable. Am I missing a library? If it exists, why can't I see it?

Post by snhatton on Visu - changing auto-logout time ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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.

if you just want to show the currently logged in user in the visualization, then just create a field with text %s and as text variable VisuElems.CurrentUserName

Post by matt-s on HMI Pushbutton/Move Instruction ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I know, that is not the issue though. The issue is the HMI_Blower_Auto_PB variable not changing to false. I do not have the IO modules plugged in yet, that is why there are NaN values for those variables. That should not affect this.

Post by tvm on Timer On Vijeo ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Vijeo doesn't support TIME variables, so the easiest thing to do is convert to a STRING in your program, and use that variable. You could use TimeAsString:= TIME_TO_STRING(TimeVar) to get a string that looks like this: T#5h10m45s200ms
