I am using a new project, with nothing, but when add a simple cam table, and compile, there will be errors. It seems some add-on or library was missing, but there is not any hint. Could you help, please.

if this happens I go to --> Build --> Generate code then there exists a IDE Code and a PLC/API code and comparison before download is possible. Give it a try?

the procedure is usually 1. install the Licenserver (on the host) with the deploy tool in CODESYS) 2. if you go to the CODESYS WBM you should see an empty Softcontainer 130-xxxxxx 3. activate the license with SoftContainer number and ticketnumber that was it!

Yes, this is possible with the Toolkit. We only server customers in the Benelux that do this, so contact your local CODESYS distributor, or contact the sales team of CODESYS Germany.

Edited: Thank you, after further inspection the library is unavailable in the example project for some reason, but using the correct Namespace in my project solved the problem.

I have to enter the owner password from time to time, even though I haven't closed the project yet. Is there a way to disable this option? So I only have to enter it once when I log in to the project, and that's it.

Thank you for the reply. I got an error saying that MEM.PackBytesToWord(GVL.Actual_Speed_DUT_high,GVL.Actual_Speed_DUT_low) = u; is not a valid statement. Am I missing some library?

You could try using the VUM_UserGroup struct from the VisuUserManagement library. I haven't tried this, but there is a variable for tAutoLogout to set the logout time.

Hello, I've been trying to use EoE for communication between a Windows PC and an M753 drive from Control Technique. Despite following some online guides (https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/EtherCATStack/4.3.0.0/Ethernet_over_EtherCAT/fld-Ethernet_over_EtherCAT.html) I havenβt had any success. Both are connected to a Debian device where RTE is running: The PC is connected via the Ethernet port. The drive is connected via the EtherCAT port. I'm unable to ping the drive from my Windows PC. Here is my configuration: On Debian: (See attachments 1, 2, 3) enp1s0 = Ethernet port enp2s0 = EtherCAT port tap2 = TAP device IP forwarding and routes are both configured. On Windows: (See attachments 4, 5) On Codesys: (See attachments 6, 7) Version: Windows 11 Debian GNU/Linux 11 Codesys 3.5.17 Control for Linux SL 4.7.0 EtherCAT 4.4.0 With this configuration, I can ping the TAP device, but not the drive (See attachment 8). Could someone explain how to properly configure all these settings? Thank you, GA
