That time it was not answered. But yes, it is possible. Search for "Relative movement" properties of the rectangle element. Might need to enable advanced features in the property browser. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Visualization/_visu_elem_rectangle.html

Hi, Is the Beckhoff EL7037 supported by codesys with softmotion? Where can I find a device descriptor that includes the drive object for the EL7037?

The SM3_Drive_ETC_Beckhoff_EL70xx library has descriptors for the EL7031, EL7041 and EL7047 but not the EL7037? Is there another library that has the one I need?

You need an SPI driver for the board. If there is nothing on the net, you will have to write one yourself

For what it is worth taking into account on version 4.18: Softmotion 4.17 doesn't work with the SMC_TRAFO_Scara2. Very small numbers come out of dA and dB. Going back to version 4.16 solves the issues.

Post by imdatatas on Read "Homed" status from EtherCAT drive
CODESYS Forge
talk
(Post)
Hello, I have experienced such situations with some servo drive devices in the past. The home completion information is reported to the upper controller by the slave drive with the states of the relevant bits in the StatusWord (for example; 6041h Bit10, Bit12 in Home mode). If the states of these bits are correct in terms of number and state but the motor does not actually perform the action; You can contact the slave drive manufacturer. There may be a problem with the device firmware. Another area you can play around with is looking at the settings in the "Advanced configuration" for Softmotion axis on the page the link to below, and trying it out and using the one that works for you. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20SoftMotion/_sm_cmd_add_softmotion_cia402_axis.html A method I recommended worked for a user as in below message. https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Engineering/thread/40bc82454d/ I hope your problem will be solved as soon as possible and by sharing the result here, you will help others to know and overcome it. Good luck. Best regards, Imdat

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.

You can get the state by just using the name of your node (same name as in device tree): VAR etcState: IoDrvEthercatDriverLib.ETC_SLAVE_STATE; END_VAR etcState := EJ1100.wState; Alternatively, you can iterate through the device tree to get the status of all (Ethercat) nodes. See here an example (no guarantee it works, just give as suggestion): PROGRAM P_IO_State VAR CONSTANT uiMAX_NR_OF_TERMINALS : UINT := 100; END_VAR VAR // general device diagnosis // can only be used when the Device - PLC Settings - Advanced settings - enable diagnosis for devices is enabled // this will add the DED library coupler: DED.INode; terminal: DED.INode; aDeviceState: ARRAY[0..uiMAX_NR_OF_TERMINALS - 1] OF DED.DEVICE_STATE; uiTerminalCount : UINT; uiIndex : UINT; // for each terminal check if it implements device diagnostics xQueryResult: BOOL; itfDevice : DED.IDevice2; xDiagAvailable: BOOL; eError: DED.ERROR; xEverythingOK: BOOL; END_VAR uiTerminalCount := 0; // start at the top of the device tree with the first EtherCAT coupler coupler := EtherCAT_Master.FirstChildNode; WHILE coupler <> 0 DO // for each coupler that is found start at the first terminal terminal := coupler.FirstChildNode; WHILE terminal <> 0 AND uiTerminalCount < uiMAX_NR_OF_TERMINALS - 1 DO // for each terminal that is found get the status through the device diagnosis interface xQueryResult := __QUERYINTERFACE(terminal, itfDevice); IF xQueryResult THEN aDeviceState[uiTerminalCount] := itfDevice.GetDeviceState(xDiagnosisInfoAvailable => xDiagAvailable, eError => eError); uiTerminalCount := uiTerminalCount + 1; END_IF terminal := terminal.NextSiblingNode; END_WHILE coupler := coupler.NextSiblingNode; END_WHILE uiIndex := 0; xEverythingOK := TRUE; WHILE uiIndex < uiTerminalCount DO IF aDeviceState[uiIndex] <> DED.DEVICE_STATE.RUNNING THEN xEverythingOK := FALSE; EXIT; END_IF uiIndex := uiIndex + 1; END_WHILE

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.
