@davidking, can you be more specific about where exactly "Compiler Defines" is located. I'm using Codesys v3.5 SP21 Patch2 and cannot find this Compiler Defines option. In the menu Project -> Project Settings there are Compiler options and Compiler warnings, but that is not it.

Hi George - ok thanks - but who created this FB in the first place? Could you lead me to the creator company? Is CODESYS not the old S3 that created this FB? :-)

Post by baott569 on CODESYS OPC UA Security: HMI Client Not Receiving Server Certificate ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello everyone, I am currently using OPC UA in CODESYS with the security mode BASIC256SHA256 – Signed and Encrypted. The OPC UA Server is running on an RTE CX device, and the HMI is running on another computer. I have reviewed many CODESYS documents and successfully established communication when the security mode is set to None with Anonymous login. However, when security is enabled, the server does not provide its certificate for the CODESYS HMI client to trust. Interestingly, the client can send its certificate to the server, and UAExpert works normally, but the CODESYS HMI client does not receive the server certificate. Can anyone help clarify what I might be missing? I have been stuck on this issue for three days. If I missed or misconfigured any step, please let me know. I believe I am stuck at step 15 in the following CODESYS guide: Encrypting the Communication of a Data Source OPC UA Client https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Communication/_cds_encrypt_communication_data_sources_opc_ua_client.html Thank you very much.

Instead of using scaling of 150%, can't you adjust your diplay resolution (Windows+i keys, then go to System > Display settings)?

Hello Tim, I am using CODESYS Visu V4.8.1.0. It works when I turn off the "Support client animation and overlay of native elements". But if I do that, dialog box moving and other options are also disabled so it is a bit problematic. Thank you for helping.

No that is not possible for function blocks, although it is possible to that with methods and functions as you see in your second pic.

Post by mjam04 on AM243 LaunchPad as PROFINET Device with CODESYS – RPC Aborted error when scanning devices ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I am currently trying to use the AM243 LaunchPad as a PROFINET device and connect to it using CODESYS. In my setup I am also using a Raspberry Pi running the CODESYS PROFINET Runtime, which acts as the PROFINET controller. The setup of the Profinet controller is correct, so all devices are in the same subnet. However, I encounter an issue when scanning for PROFINET devices in CODESYS. The AM243 LaunchPad appears in the scan results, but the following error is reported: RPC Aborted: 0x16C9A049 Additionally, CODESYS shows the message that the identification data is not available and the IP address should be checked. Because of this error, the controller cannot establish a connection to the device. Another observation is that I cannot ping the AM243 LaunchPad from my PC, even though I configured what should be the correct IP address. Setup: PROFINET Device: AM243 LaunchPad PROFINET Stack: Industrial Communication SDK example PROFINET Controller: Raspberry Pi running CODESYS with PROFINET Runtime Engineering PC: CODESYS IDE Network: Ethernet connection between PC, Raspberry Pi, and AM243 In the attachments there is a screenshot of the corresponding error. Did anybody had the same error? Any hints or debugging suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Probably best to create an alarm template for your motor function block. Then automatically the alarm manager can be filled with all the alarms for all instances of the motor function blocks (based on the created alarm template). See: https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_cds_obj_alarm_group_template.html
