Post by transmin01 on CANbus issue ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Update: This initial issue was when using a Linux target PLC. Since then I have created a Win10 target PC and the Codesys software reported an issue associated with the device version (see attached). I am assuming this is an incompatibility with the xml file from the manufacturer and the firmware version on the module and I am chasing this up with Beckhoff. Question is, why would this not report with a Linux target?

Post by transmin01 on PCAN serial "No CAN driver found" ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I am using a PCAN mini CAN board which has the Windows drivers installed on the target PLC. PCAN board can be seen in device manager. However, I am getting "No CAN driver found" error. I have read the post https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/CODESYS-V2/thread/44aae19318/ and have uncommented the CmpPCANBasicDrv driver in the CodesysControl.cfg file in development PC and have copied it to the target PC. Current CodesysControl.cfg file attached. Is there anything else I am missing? Regards

Post by timvh on CANbus issue ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
On a PC with the Control Win, this is probably related to the fact that the CAN drivers are not loaded. Go to the folder where your Control Win Configuration file is: - E.g. C:\ProgramData\CODESYS\CODESYSControlWinV3x64\E1FA7ABE - Open the CODESYSControl.cfg - Remove the semi-colon in front of the CAN driver you want to use (section ComponentManager). - Set the component ID to the next number in the list (e.g. Component.8) - Save this file and restart the Control Win.

Hi Till, Sadly I did not get any feedback on this and was not able to get it to work using Visual Studio Code. I believe I have used a Codesys environment to get something up, but I cant remember any specifics, its too long ago. Good luck with it! Kind regards, Jan

Post by chris12345 on IO-Link Lizenz ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hallo zusammen, ich arbeite mich momentan in das Thema IO-Link ein. Benutze einen Revolution Pi, IO-Link Master (AL1333 IFM), Sensor (OGD500 IFM) und ein IO-Link I/O Modul (AL2205 IFM). EDS-Dateien und IODD Dateien über das Geräte-Repro eingebunden. Bekomme jetzt folgenden Fehler:- Die Lizenz fehlt oder ist ungültig. Die SPS läuft im Demo-Modus. Welche Lizenz wird benötigt, um IO-Link fähigen Sensoren meinen IO-Link Master hinzuzufügen? Benutze die Codesys V3.5 SP19. Gruß Chris PS: Anbei das Bild

Post by ofey on Symbol configuration / GVL ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi! I have som variables that I communicate to a Modbus Master. These variables are declared in a "Global Variable List" where I have assigned them memory addresses. To organize this mapping I want to make a MODBUS list where I show all the variable names together with the memory address. Is there an easy way to export this list from CODESYS? Either through script or some export function maybe?

Post by eschwellinger on Persistence Manager Backup ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
you need at them moment a download once (for the configuration files generated including addresses) then stop the plc - exchange the persistence file ( without the config file) This will be improved to 3.5.18.6 and 3.5.20.0. (possible then to generate offline bootproject including full persistenmanager files) - this is if you have not 100% the same bootapplication on the devices. In case you copy the whole Application (PLCLogic) directory it should work out of the box - but only with 100% same bootprojects as mentioned above. By the CODESYS Automation Server would help solve this too.

Post by mondinmr on Jitter problems on imx8 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
SOLVED!!! In this imx8 max_cstate=1 in kernel boot parameters is not working! We found a workaround: #include <stdio.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdint.h> int main(void) { int fd; uint32_t value = 0; fd = open("/dev/cpu_dma_latency", O_WRONLY); if (fd < 0) { perror("Error opening /dev/cpu_dma_latency"); return 1; } if (write(fd, &value, sizeof(value)) != sizeof(value)) { perror("Error writing to /dev/cpu_dma_latency"); close(fd); return 1; } while (1) { pause(); } } This simple code launched before CODESYS do the same work! Now jitter is identical as measured by cyclictest!

Post by simotion on Online view : code is scanned ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
If I do online monitoring of code in f.i. a function block, I cannot see if the function block is called or not. In software from other vendors you normally have an indication if the online code you are looking on is scanned at that moment or not. Is there a way in Codesys to determine in the online view if (parts) of the code are scanned or not? Thanks

Post by davidbo on How to allow a user to handle certificates without access to sourcecode? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
With CODESYS V3.5 it is possible for a user to do the following things among many others. 1) Handling certificates especially move a certificate to the trusted folder. 2) Change password and create new users for OPC UA access However it requires access to the whole projects and its source code. Something you might not want to hand over to an end user for a stand alone product. Is there a way out of this problem?

Hello? I have a problem with datasource... I am trying to connect to a OPCUA server. I create a datasource, but I can not login into it. I need to use login credentials to login... Everything works fine in UAExpert, but in codesys I cant seem to get in properly using the login credentials... I have tried to configure the datasource initializer but seem to keep failing... Do I need to call it somewhere ? Will the find endpoints work with this configured to store my password ? !

Post by mputaggio on Recipe Manager - RecipeManCommands, load & write wrong values, Bug? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, We encountered the same issues on both recipe library versions 4.2.0.0 and the newest 4.3.0.0. The Arrays of structs get saved correctly but loading them restores only some indexes, while others get lost or completely wrong. We have been using the same recipes for the last two years on recipe manager vers. 3.5.17 withoud issues. There also seems to be a different behaviour in vers. 4.3.0.0 but it's still incorrectly loading the recipes. Did you find any workaround or solution? Codesys version used: 3.5.19.50

Post by spiessli on Softmotion axis to CANopen Maxon IDX drive ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I want to use Maxon IDX drives for some simple robotic applications. I have used Maxon's Epos for generating a DCF file to import in Codesys (attached). Then I can add the IDX motors under a CANopen manager in the device tree. Unfortunately, I cannot add a "softmotion axis" to the IDX motors. Now I am wondering, why? Without being able to attach a softmotion axis to the device in the device tree, the use of the motor is greatly reduced... spiessli

Hi geoweil, have you tried to save changed values to remanent area or using a VAR RETAIN? After restart you have to initialize Counter with last remanent value. Depending on changes per cycle and the possibilitiy of your control unit to write remanent storage. Otherwise you need a buffering system to ensure save backup of last PI_Counter value. May you could read this Thread to get further help: https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Engineering/thread/31e1c8349e/#bf48

Post by timvh on Minimum system requirements for codesys control standard S ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
It depends on your application which CPU speed and RAM size you need. If you think the Control Standard S license is sufficient then my guess is that your selected PC has no problem running your application. There are no more "hardware" based single licenses available anymore, only application based licenses. So this "Raspberry Pi" restriction for home automation is not applicable anymore. For more information see: https://store.codesys.com/en/howto_applicationbasedlicenses

Post by andrax on Stop Programm geladen Ausnahmefehler ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hallo, ich habe seid neustem ebenfalls dieses Problem auf den Raspberry. Codesys 3.5.18 Nach dem Download geht die SPS in STOP und es blinkt schwerer Ausnahmefehler. Der Fehler kommt sporadisch und ist nicht reproduzierbar. Es passiert beim kompletten Download, aber auch bei Änderungen. Wie kann ich den Fehler eingrenzen? Nachtrag: Wenn der Fehler kommt, ist die Runtime auf dem Raspberry nicht mehr ansprechbar. Der Raspberry selbst schon. Für einen neuen Download muss ich den Raspberry neu starten. Das selbe ist auch in der Programmierumgebung, die Software hängt sich auf.

Post by sturmghost on Find visualization elements that require a lot of computing time ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I found out that the Codesys simulation mode is not good to measure performance. As soon as I upload the code onto the hardware PLC I can see that my visu-task needs around 60 ms to complete. I'm wondering if there is a possibility to find out which visualization/visualization element takes a lot of computing time? Then I would look for ways to decrease the long computing time.

Folgendes passiert: Bild 1: Befehl in der Konsole eingegeben ohne sudo; Uhrzeit wird nicht gestellt (keine Berechtigung). Bild 2: Befehl mit sudo ausgeführt, Uhrzeit wird gestellt. Bild 3: Befehl ohne sudo von CoDeSys aus ausgeführt; Rückgabewert gibt die Uhrzeit an, die eingestellt werden sollte, Uhrzeit wird jedoch NICHT eingestellt. Haben Sie noch eine Idee was es sein könnte?

Post by elektron785 on CAN-Bus in Demo-Version ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hallo, wie verhält es sich mit der Demo-Version und Datenübertragung z.B. via CAN-Bus. Der Bus läuft, das Device befindet sich im Zustand "Operational" aber es werden keine Daten von der Soft-SPS empfangen. Ich benutze aktuell eine nicht lizenzierte Version von CoDeSys Control for Linux ARM64SL. Normalerweise sollte die Demo-Version uneingeschränkt laufen - also kann ich davon ausgehen, dass es sich um einen Programmierfehler handelt oder ist die Feldbusfunktion ohne Lizenz doch in irgendeiner Form eingeschränkt verfügbar (außer dem 30 Minuten Limit nach Reboot)?
