Is it really the same CODESYS version with the same add-ons? Maybe open the CODESYS installer on your home laptop, and export the configuration. On your work PC open the CODESYS installer and import the configuration.

Post by rckalex on Changing Trace Variable at Runtime ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Is it possible to change the variable being traced during runtime? I would like to use the CURRENTCLIENTID in combination with an array of real numbers to alter the traced variable in a display window, without needing to create separate visualizations for each variable.

How is that possible to put a Function Block Method in the Task Configurator, as they did in the CNC3DEditor.project example? In that exmaple, I removed the gCNCMachine.SlowTaskCall method from the Task Configuration and I can't put it back. https://us.store.codesys.com/cnc-3d-editor.html Thanks!

I don't fully understand the issue, but if the encoding is a problem you can try testing with WSTRING datatype instead of STRING. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_datatype_wstring.html

Post by fabiodasilveira on PLC Shell commands via ST Code ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello Everybody, I have created a project for an Eaton XC303 that sends lots of data to a router via UDP. It works fine. However, when there is more than one product connected to the router, then it is necessary to change the IP address of the Ethernet port 0, from e.g. 192.168.2.11 to 192.168.2.12 (second product). It is easily done via PLC Shell (setipaddr 0 192.168.2.12), but the people in production is struggling with the PLC Shell commands and I would like to create a Visualization page that will hide that. I used the instruction: eChangeIPResult:= SysSockSetIPAddress(strEthernetPort, strIPAddress); and it works, until the PLC resets. I already read some posts and it appears that I need to stop the Ethernet 0 port and Reconfigure it, but I am really struggling to find the right way to do it. Any help will be much appreciated.

I found the solution. The NIC information on Deploy control SL should be defined to scan profinet devices. So I moved to the next challenge. Device is founded but still it has orange mark not green.

@eschwellinger Somehow this code doens't work for me in Codesys V3.5.19. Is this code supposed to work in simulation mode as well?

Post by fabiodasilveira on PLC Shell commands via ST Code ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Thank you, Bingo. Your idea of adding the change to the start up process works. However, I am still intrigued with the fact that SysSockSetIPAddress(strEthernetPort:= '0', strIPAddress:= '192.168.2.12') is different from PLC Shell (setipaddr 0 192.168.2.12).:-(

Post by pernockham on Engineering IDE from linux? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Started playing with the idea of ditching windows for linux, one of the obstacles would be Codesys development. Alternatives: - linux with wine? - Run windows/codesys through virtual machine I guess a vm is the way to go? Anyone out there that could share their experience?

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.

Post by pikebuster on Help for a newbie ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Can somebody help me with this? I have problem with the button! This task must be solved using Sequential Function Chart (SFC), IEC 61131-3. TASK Create an SFC program to control a traffic light at an intersection. Description: You will program a traffic light that has three phases: Green, Yellow, and Red. The traffic light must follow these rules: Green light is on for 10 seconds. Yellow light is on for 3 seconds. Red light is on for 10 seconds. If the pedestrian button is pressed, the system must keep the red light on for 20 seconds during the next cycle. After the pedestrian has “crossed,” the system should return to its normal cycle. Basic Steps: Initialization: Start by setting the traffic light to Red. Green Phase: After 10 seconds, switch to Green. Yellow Phase: After 10 seconds in the Green phase, switch to Yellow. Red Phase: After 3 seconds in the Yellow phase, switch back to Red. Loop: Repeat the cycle. Use, for example, lamp symbols in the visualization module to simulate the traffic light. You may also add a simple pedestrian light if desired.

@eschwellinger - We are experiencing the exact same issue. RunTime 3.5.19.70 and IDE V3.5 SP21. It's 100% reproducible. All you have to do is disconnect the network cable for about 10 minutes. OPC UA Crashes and requires a reboot to fix.
