Post by mdetrana on VPLCs Tab 'Grey-ed Out', Cannot Create VPLC ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
When evaluating Codesys functionality, I found that the VPLC tab under Deploy Control SL > Operation > VPLCs is 'grey-ed out', see attached image. I'm trying to evaluate how my infrastructure will interact with Codesys on a Raspberry Pi 4, so I'm trying to demo running it before purchasing licenses. I was going through the Codesys tutorial here, and it never shows the tab as grey, so I do not know how to proceed. Let me know if I can get any additional information that can help. This could be related to an Info message that's sent when connecting- [INFORMATION] Connected successfully! [INFORMATION] Successfully connected to target (<ip_address>) [INFORMATION] No supported container engine found on device. You have to install a supported container engine to use Virtual Control. Please contact the Administrator of the device. [INFORMATION] Finished reading device information</ip_address> I'm not exactly sure what I would need to do to install a 'supported container engine'.

Post by dim54 on multiple entry of the Owner password ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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?

One option could be to use a trigger variable to execute your trace and then toggle that variable from a step within a test case.
