I want to open one instance of runtime to be opened at a time even I hit multiple times? How can I implement it?

Following up on the invalid user authentication on the target Not 100% sure what the problem was but following my post I managed to create an administrator level user. Then my next issue was that I could not connect to the device. I might have flipped the device from a 64 bit version to a 32 bit version so I did UPDATE DEVICE back to the 64 bit version; still could not connect somehow. Then I did two things at the same time that fixed my problem: Wiped the Codesys Control Win 64 bit version and installed the 32 bit version Installed latest Codesys Control Win V3.5 SP20 (released today) I wish I knew which one of these actions fixed the problem but at least the problem is solved. Hoping this post may help someone one day

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.

Hello, Can anybody here tell me how to modify the time and date on my CPX-E? I used the code I found on CODESYS online help, but it doesn't work. What am I missing? FUNCTION current_date_time : STRING VAR stUTC_Timestamp : SysTime; //utc time // ULINT#1528280694913 stLocal_TimeStamp : SysTime; //local time but is in general equal // ULINT#1528280694913 stdNow : SysTimeDate; //local time in an object to access each number (day, month...) dtNow : DATE_AND_TIME;//DT#2018-6-6-10:24:54 todNow : TIME_OF_DAY; // TOD#10:24:54.913 datNow : DATE; // D#2018-6-6 END_VAR SysTimeRtcHighResGet(stUTC_Timestamp); // ULINT#1528273494913 SysTimeRtcConvertHighResToLocal(stUTC_Timestamp, stdNow); //convert UTC ULINT to Local SysTime // stdNow.wYear = UINT#2018 // stdNow.wMonth = UINT#6 // stdNowy.wDay = UINT#6 // stdNow.wHour = UINT#10 // stdNow.wMinute = UINT#24 // stdNow.wSecond = UINT#54 // stdNow.wMilliseconds = UINT#913 // stdNow.wDayOfWeek = UINT#3 // stdNow.wYday = UINT#157 SysTimeRtcConvertDateToHighRes(stdNow, stLocal_TimeStamp); // ULINT#1528280694913 dtNow := TO_DT(stLocal_TimeStamp / 1000 ( ms )); // DT#2018-6-6-10:24:54 todNow := TO_TOD(stLocal_TimeStamp MOD TO_ULINT(T#1D)); // TOD#10:24:54.913 datNow := TO_DATE(dtNow); // D#2018-6-6 (convert to appropriate string) current_date_time := concat('$N[', TO_STRING(dtNow)); current_date_time:= concat(current_date_time,'.'); current_date_time:= concat(current_date_time, TO_STRING(stdNow.wMilliseconds)); current_date_time:= concat(current_date_time,'] - '); RETURN;

Post by tk096 on High Cycle Times for SoftMotion_PlanningTask when using AxisGroup
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
Hi, under this circumstances the performance of a Raspberry Pi 4 should be sufficient to run a Softmotion robotics application. A closer look at the project would be required. Maybe you could contact the codesys support? Usually it is recommended to run the planning task cyclically every 2ms with task priority of 0 on a dedicated core. In the task configuration you can have a look at the average and maximum execution time of the planning task. You could use the function block SMC_TuneCPKernel (https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/SM3_Robotics/Current/SM3_Robotics/POUs/AdministrativeConfiguration/Computation/SMC_TuneCPKernel.html) to define suitable values for the parameters 'fSyncBufferDuration' and 'fPlanningInterval'. However, as previously mentioned, the performance of a Raspberry Pi 4 with realtime patch should be sufficient. The 'fPlanningInterval' parameter specifies the maximum planning step width in seconds. The cycle time of the planning task should not permanently exceed this value. A higher value reduces the computational effort, but can lead to a violation or no full utilization of the set limit values for velocity, acceleration and jerk. From a starting value of 0.016 seconds, the value should be increased gradually until the performance is acceptable. The parameter 'fSyncBufferDuration' specifies the size (in seconds) of the buffer between the planning and fieldbus task. The cycle time of the planning task must not exceed this value at peak times (this will lead to the error SMC_CP_QUEUE_UNDERRUN). A higher value can compensate for peaks in the cycle time of the planning task. At the same time, however, this also increases the latency for executing interrupts and aborting movements.

Hello to all! How can I read or write, via my main code (ST), to the registers present in the DO of my ethercat CoE servo drive? These objects appear in the list of the INITIALIZATION page, and from here I can only access them at startup. How do I access it in run time from my main PLC_PROGRAM?

Hello otdeveloper, I am very interested in this topic. I have been dedicated to IEC 61499 for some time and I would like to understand if the time has come to adopt it in the real world of automation or if it will continue to fill up research papers only.

To search for an exact phrase, put it in quotes. Example: "getting started docs"
To exclude a word or phrase, put a dash in front of it. Example: docs -help
To search on specific fields, use these field names instead of a general text search. You can group with AND
or OR
.
