Post by wbj0t on one variable signed to modbus tcp server device and modbus serial device ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi. Raspberry pi 4 runtime. Runtime version 4.16, IDE version 3.5.21. Is it possible write new value for variable via modbus tcp or serial devices when both enabled? As I see - not. What can I do? It is terrible restriction.

Post by timvh on Reading multiple lines from csv file ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Not sure, but maybe before you enter step 5, set i, lineindex and charIndex to 0. And the buffer variable should have a size bigger than 1 line. Additionally I think you should set bufferstart to 0 before you enter step 5. And in the OSCAT function you always point to the buffer address, but shouldn't this be (buffer + bufferstart)?

Now, for CODESYS v3.5 SP21 I can no longer find the "OPC UA Information Model Repository" entry to add as a command. In the "Tools" menu it is listed but greyed out, reporting "Plug-in is not available". So how do I add the Plug-in?

I am currently having the issue that Codesyscontrol only runs for 10 seconds on my Raspberry Pi 4. I believe the problem is because the MAC address range is of the Raspberry is 88:A2:9E:XX:XX:XX. When will Codesys Control For Raspberry Pi 4.17.0.0 be released to fix this issue?

Thanks Tim. I would think it somehow is relevant when creating a compiled library, but that may very well not be the case. If I understand you correctly, then the same compiled library created from my source code would work for both 32 bit as well as 64 bit controllers.

Thank you Pernockham, I am using Windows SoftPLC and the device is CODESYS Control Win V3 x64. In the above attached example, the file is Linux-based. This is an external add-on file in the CODESYS installer (CODESYS Control for PLCnext SL). I am trying to implement it without this add-on file.

Gateway and runtime (Control for linux SL) on a debian linux. Thanks for your check. Good to know. I will probably travel there in about a months time so that will give me better possibility for further testing.

Hi, I’m evaluating CODESYS for our devices. If I buy a standard runtime and the Toolkit, can I create a custom device descriptor so users can select my device (instead of just “CODESYS Control for Linux ARM64 SL”) when starting a new project? Has anyone done this or know if it’s possible? Thanks!

You can change the node id by adding the following to /etc/CODESYSControl.cfg: [CmpOPCUAProviderIecVarAccess] CustomNodeName=MyPLC123 Then restart the runtime and the new Node name will appear with the connection. I don't know if it's possible to remove the |var| from the name. I hope this helps!

Post by dhumphries on Execution Order of Function Blocks ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Function blocks in a SFC are executed left to right, top to bottom, instructions in ST are executed from left to right top to bottom as well. I think you are asking about the execution of POUs although you use the name function block, I believe POUs are executed in the order they are shown under the main task.
