Ohhh OK. Yeah this seems to be timing like you said. Yeah I read through that document and came to the same conclusion. I haven't tried setting them both to 200ms. Maybe I'll give it a shot. Thanks so much for your input. Its greatly apreciated.

I believe I have installed the correct device descriptions and library, in an attempt to use the MCP3008 in conjunction with RPI; when project runs the MCP3008 is unable to find the correct driver. Is there anything I'm missing? Very new to this so any help is apprecated!

Good morning, I'm using a raspberry pi3 as plc with the runtime 4.9.0.0. My program has many of retrain variables but when an update is performed the retrain variables comes back to default values.

Hi, I am trying to get a basic safety application to download but I keep getting an "Invalid ERR Ack input" and "The Standard Inputs Size of zero is not allowed". I am simply using 2 safety inputs through an "AND" block to 2 safety outputs. Any help would be appreciated. Regards Trevor.

Post by rickj on Defining local variables that can be independent with several users. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You need to create an array with one element for each possible user. I usually define these arrays in the root screen. FrameIndex : Array [0..MaxUsers] OF INT; Then use the global CurrentClientId (defined by one of the VISU libraries) to index the array element used to select the frame. FrameIndex[CurrentClientId]

Post by totorovic on CSVReaderInit returns error : INVALID_HANDLE ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
We changed the path where the CSV file is. From intern memory of the IPC to a USB key. We still have this error 'INVALID_HANDLE'. We must restart the Codesys runtime to clear it. That is a big problem for us because machine is in production. @eschwellinger What do you mean by "this is a security issue not to read/write in the plc allowed path"

Hi Sir Kevin. May I know how you came up with this solution. Im a bit confused but I tried to put this. [SysCom] Linux.Devicefile=/dev/ttyRS48 (remember, no 5 at the end!) then set com port in codesys to 6. It also works for me but want to know where did you get this. Thank you.

Post by snhatton on OPC UA: How to change NodeId ?! ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
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!

I have a video demonstrating the procedure to install the runtime on a linux device. https://youtu.be/rj0dOhgnGjs?si=OJoA-kgc1saxIweR This demonstration shows how to install the runtime on a X86 based controller, it should be the same for an ARM based device, but you'll need to install the add-in for Codesys control for Linux ARM SL (or the 64 bit add-in.)

Post by lgeertsema on Checkbox font color in visualization style ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I'm having a similar issue with buttons. I want to be able to set the default color and transparency of a button. I've tried a lot of different iterations like KNewman, but to no avail. Has there been some documentation released since KNewman posted this, or is the style editor still as undocumented as ever?

Post by timvh on Sysfile inuts ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
To prevent ambiguous use of this enumeration value. Let's say another ENUM is available in your project or in another library which has an enumeration value AM_WRITE, then it is not clear which AM_WRITE you want to assign. By this qualified access to the SysFile.AM_WRITE, it is completely clear for the compiler.

Post by scarter on Bit / Bool data types in function parameters ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Any reason BIT and BOOL data types are not interchangeable? Trying to make a function which takes a BOOL IN/OUT parameter (Not allowed to use BIT) In the main logic if I make a DINT variable, and want to use each bit on different functions CODESYS will not allow it.

Post by alexgooi on How to protect library project? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi aniket-b, If you save the library as a compiled library you are not able to see the source code. When the end user tries to view inside the object, CODESYS will give a notification that the source code is missing, see attachment. In short if you don't send the source code, it will not show.

Hi Martin, I got the messagekey of the "upgrade format warning dialog" with key:"<< No Key>>". (please refer to the attachment) Is that means i can't use system.prompt_answers["<<No Key>>"] = PromptResult.OK; to auto-answer 'OK' in this dialog? Is there any other way to auto-answer this dialog? Thanks!

Post by dhumphries on Using Codesys example problems ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You have to install any libraries needed by the sample program. Click the button with ... next to one of the errors (see attached image,) then choose download missing libraries. Codesys should automatically locate and install the missing libraries, it's not flawless though, I've had some issues getting libraries to install. The best advice I can give if it doesn't work is re-install Codesys.

Hi, Im not sure if this is what you mean, but i do succesfully use the IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave.InputData and IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave.OutputData to read from and write to beckhoff DI and DO cards. Very convenient as you can make an FB with an VAR_IN_OUT of type IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave and only have to pass the slave reference... So i am not using .ETCSlave_Diag but .ETCSlave...
