Post by mondinmr on COL.IMap2 and HashTableFactory cause frequent Access Violation ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Good morning, I’ve been using the Collection library for a long time, mostly with Stack, LinkedList, and List. From your examples I was able to manage the different factories, even for custom elements. Now I need a hashtable, but with this object I’m running into a lot of random access violations. If I append something inside FB_Init after constructing the hashtable, it crashes, even though the list was already created. If I only create the hashtable in FB_Init and append afterwards, it usually works. I don’t understand the meaning of the dispose call in this code: pSlave := ADR(slave); uSlave := TO_ULINT(pSlave); iKey := fKey.Create(uSlave); IF hash.CountKeys() = 0 THEN Service.logger.appendLog('Filling hashtable', 'HashManager', AdvLogType.AdvDebugMsg); ok := FALSE; ELSE eError := hash.ContainsKey(iKey, xResult => ok); END_IF IF NOT ok THEN pI := __NEW(UINT); iVal := fKey.Create(TO_ULINT(pI)); Service.logger.appendLog(CONCAT('New slave', TO_STRING(uSlave)), 'HashManager', AdvLogType.AdvDebugMsg); hash.AddKeyValuePair(iKey, iVal); appendNewSlave := pI; ELSE eError := hash.GetElementByKey(iKey, itfValue => iElem); xResult := __QUERYINTERFACE(iKey, itfIInstance); IF xResult THEN itfIInstance.Dispose(); END_IF IF eError <> COL.COLLECTION_ERROR.NO_ERROR THEN Service.logger.appendLog(CONCAT('ERROR ', TO_STRING(eError)), 'HashManager', AdvLogType.AdvCriticalMsg); appendNewSlave := nullptr; RETURN; END_IF __QUERYINTERFACE(iElem, iVal); {warning disable C0033} pI := TO___UXINT(iVal.UlintValue); {warning restore C0033} appendNewSlave := pI; END_IF Without the dispose call, every second cold reset crashes immediately when I try to access iVal, even if eError doesn’t report any error. With the dispose call, the cold reset issue disappears, but I get other problems: a) If I start the runtime using systemctl start codesyscontrol, it crashes at IF hash.CountKeys() = 0 THEN b) If I delete the files in PlcLogic and download again, it works and survives multiple cold resets. But as soon as I run systemctl restart codesyscontrol, everything gets corrupted again and it starts crashing at that point. FUNCTION_BLOCK SlaveMapCounter VAR hash : COL.IMap2; eError : COL.COLLECTION_ERROR; END_VAR In its FB_Init I create it: METHOD FB_Init: BOOL VAR_INPUT bInitRetains: BOOL; // TRUE: retain variables are initialized (reset warm / reset cold) bInCopyCode: BOOL; // TRUE: the instance will be copied to the copy code afterward (online change) END_VAR VAR hF : COL.HashTableFactory; END_VAR hash := hF.Create(256); In another FB I instantiate it statically: FUNCTION_BLOCK ABSTRACT AbstractServoEthercatController EXTENDS AbstractServoController VAR_STAT hashSlaves : SlaveMapCounter; END_VAR VAR field : REFERENCE TO ADVAbstractFieldUnitEthercatCia402; initCnt : REFERENCE TO UINT; END_VAR The append method is the one shown above, and I call it after the runtime has started. The accesses are performed by a single task, and in any case I’m working on an isolated single core. I’ve tried everything, moving the create, the instances, and all the rest several times, but nothing seems to work. I’d like to point out that these FBs are part of our own library, which is used in many applications.

HI All past two weeks im trying to configure and establish communication between wago rs485 fieldbus coupler(750-315/300-000) with wago pfc 200 plc but not able to communicate can you peoples help me to configure and establish communication using codesys v3.5 and above

Post by eschwellinger on communication ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
depends on if you use PFC200 SL from CODESYS store or the Wago target for the PFC. If you use the SL product you need to setup the interface by a plcshell command...

I got same issue but managed to get it to work again by downgrading the Runtime. Here's my specs: CODESYS V3.5.19.0 Runtime Linux SL 4.7.0.0. CSV Utility SL 1.1.0.0 (Licensed IIoT libraries SL) I tried Runtime 4.8.0.0. and 4.9.0.0 but both result in INVALID_HANDLE error.

Have you looked at this? https://forge.codesys.com/prj/codesys-example/element-collect/home/Home/ It's not exactly what you're looking for, but I've been able to make some things work more efficiently using this library.

Hi yr00, the default sampling interval is set to 1s. you can generate your own client settings, this link should help you:- https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Communication/_comm_use_dynamic_opc_ua_server_comm_settings.html

check 'uname -a' by ssh connection - addtional you'll probaly find the reason for not running with application by 'cat /var/opt/codesys/codesyscontrol.log' incase you are using 4.9.0.0 runtime version

Thanks very much for the explanation. I am basically new to the rpi world, but somewhat familiar with the indraworks/CtrlX versions of codesys. Appreciate your help.

Post by eschwellinger on RPI Zero w - Edge gateway cant install ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
ok now it is clear - this is a single core Pi Zero W. For this device there is no edge device available. But just for working with CODESYS it is not really needed and yes plc runs only for 2h unlicensed.
