Post by damian177 on CM4S GPIO's in Codesys ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I am running my application on device based on Compute Module 4S (Cortex-A72 (ARMv8) 64-bit ). On this device I installed RPi Runtime in 4.11.0.0 version. In my project I use device: Codesys Control for Raspberry Pi 64SL and my project works, but I actually do not have acces to all GPIO's , because GPIOs Compute Module is available only in 3.5.16.0 version and it doesn't work. Properly work GPIOs B+/Pi2 but using this device I do not have acces to all GPIO's in CM4S. Anyone of can tell me how add GPIOs Compute Module 4.11.0.0 to my project ?

Post by s1mon on Two OneWireMaster on one Raspberry PI 5 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I don't know why the EtherCat fails, but what happens is: First I have only one 1WireMaster running on my Raspberry Pi and EtherCat is running fine. Then I'd like to add a 2nd 1WireMaster. Therefore I enable a 2nd GPIO Pin on the raspberry in the file "/boot/firmware/config.txt". dtoverlay=w1-gpio,gpiopin=4,pullup=0 dtoverlay=w1-gpio,gpiopin=23,pullup=0 To be able to use this 2nd 1WireMaster in Codesys Runtime I Adjust the CODESYScontrol.cfg file and add there: PlaceholderFilePath.2=/sys/devices/w1_bus_master2, $OneWire2$ After a reboot the EtherCat Master is not working any more. I didn't even add a 2nd OneWire Master in Codesys, but still if I do the EtherCat does not work. Do you have an idea why?

Post by daanyouknow on Using a raspberry pi and NVLs to log variables outside of Codesys ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, My PLC/controller doesn't support OPC UA, so my current plan to create a ringbuffer/circular logger is to connect a raspberry pi to it, use the Network Variable List receiver and sender and raspberry pi codesys runtime to get the variables to the raspberry pi, after which I will use the pi which DOES support OPC UA to get the variables to a python program which logs the desired variables for a certain amount of time for me, would this work? I don't want to spend 50+ euros + licencing fees for a solution that might not work.

Post by imdatatas on Error: C0138: No matching 'FB_Init' method found for instantiation of VisuClientObjectMgr ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Unfortunately, the "C0138: No matching 'FB_Init" method found" error is a nightmare for CODESYS V3.5 SP21. I'm not sure if anything has been done about this or if anything will be fixed. I've encountered the same issue many times, and it was only resolved by completely uninstalling SP21, deleting all related files and folders from my computer, and then installing SP19. So, I've given up on using SP21 and switched back to SP19patch7. Here are some previous posts regarding the "C0138: No matching 'FB_Init" on SP21 of Codesys. https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Visualization/thread/0763d6ca8e/ https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Motion/thread/9074005bf4/

Post by elektron785 on GPIO mit Codesys Virtual Control for Linux ARM64 SL ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hallo zusammen, ich möchte an einem Entwicklungsboard auf dem der i.MX 8M Plus von NXP aufgesteckt ist die vier zur Verfügung gestellten GPIOs als Ausgänge verwenden. Ich habe mir dazu die Readme-Datei des GPIO-Beispiels von "C:\Program Files\CODESYS 3.5.20.40\CODESYS\CODESYS Control SL Extension Package\4.14.0.0\Examples\GPIO" angeschaut Die Übersicht der verfügbaren GPIOs sieht folgendermaßen aus - wobei ich das auf die reduziert habe, die für mich von Interesse sind: gpiochip0: GPIOs 0-31, parent: platform/30200000.gpio, 30200000.gpio: gpio-0 (SODIMM206 ) gpio-1 (SODIMM208 ) gpio-2 ( ) gpio-3 ( ) gpio-4 ( |sd-vsel ) out hi gpio-5 (SODIMM210 ) gpio-6 (SODIMM212 ) gpio-7 (SODIMM216 ) gpio-8 (SODIMM218 ) gpio-9 ( ) gpio-10 ( ) gpio-11 (SODIMM16 ) gpio-12 (SODIMM155 |regulator-usb1-vbus ) out lo gpio-13 (SODIMM157 ) gpio-14 (SODIMM185 |regulator-usb2-vbus ) out hi gpio-15 (SODIMM91 )** Füge ich nun das GPIO (1 Bit)-Gerät in meinem Codesys-Programm hinzu funktioniert der Bus solange bis ich die Richtung in den GPIO-Parametern von "not used" auf "Output" stelle (siehe Bild gpio_parameter). Dann funktioniert nach Download der Bus nicht mehr. Gibt es noch eine andere Möglichkeit das zu steuern oder muss ich noch Einstellungen tätigen? Für die Zeile mit dem echo (export/unexport) aus dem Beispiel fehlen mir trotz sudo die Zugriffsrechte. "The Kernel Linux has deprecated GPIO user space SysFS. However, the kernel config CONFIGGPIOSYSFS is still enabled on Toradex's BSP to support customers using it in their legacy applications. You can check the configuration by running zcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIGGPIOSYSFS. For GPIO access from userspace, the new char device API, also known as libgpiod, must be used." Dies steht in der Verwendung der GPIOs - eine Ausführung des zcat-Kommandos liefert ein =y zurück.

Hello good morning everyone I would like to ask a question, is it possible to directly connect a device that only contains modbus RTU communication through an R-45 connector, directly to the PC? Or would you need an intermediate device to achieve communication? It would be of great help to me because I cannot achieve communication between the Codesys simulator plc and a Fuji Frenic mini VFD, please help me if anyone has had the same experience. Thank you so much

Hi, I am new to modbusTCP and I am trying to access Input registers from codesys (3.5.SP13). The offset is 16#0000 and I am trying to access Channel 1[24] %IW24 to pull analog values. I am using pyModbusTCP and I need to supply a modbus address and the number of registers to read. What does 16#0000 mean in terms of the actual offset, how do I translate this number plus the channel to access this info via python? Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Post by mondinmr on Jitter problems on imx8 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
SOLVED!!! In this imx8 max_cstate=1 in kernel boot parameters is not working! We found a workaround: #include <stdio.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdint.h> int main(void) { int fd; uint32_t value = 0; fd = open("/dev/cpu_dma_latency", O_WRONLY); if (fd < 0) { perror("Error opening /dev/cpu_dma_latency"); return 1; } if (write(fd, &value, sizeof(value)) != sizeof(value)) { perror("Error writing to /dev/cpu_dma_latency"); close(fd); return 1; } while (1) { pause(); } } This simple code launched before CODESYS do the same work! Now jitter is identical as measured by cyclictest!

Post by simotion on Online view : code is scanned ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
If I do online monitoring of code in f.i. a function block, I cannot see if the function block is called or not. In software from other vendors you normally have an indication if the online code you are looking on is scanned at that moment or not. Is there a way in Codesys to determine in the online view if (parts) of the code are scanned or not? Thanks

Post by nikgind on Codesys Communication Manger - Required information model version exists in the model repository but is not found ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, yes i did solve it. You have to change the namespace 0 model in the UaModeler. Open the modeler --> Settings --> Edit Settings --> scroll down to the last option "External Model Support" --> Check "Allow replacing built-in..." Now create a new project in the UaModeler. If you have to choose your base models, you can see the option "Find another Opc.Ua.NodeSet2". I have attached the .xml i am using.

Post by andre-luis on Check if Codesys runtime is on 'Running' or 'Stopped' state? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Just to share, for those who as me are seeking for this and had found no information anywhere in this World: Every time I stop/start the PLC runtime ( turning into 'Stopped' or 'Running' state ) the 'CODESYSControlService' appears at the Taskmanager list, which could suggest a straight correlation. I was expecting a clever solution, but this one solves for while.

Post by andre-luis on Check if Codesys runtime is on 'Running' or 'Stopped' state? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
It's already there, the service get started as default. I missed to say that sometimes it happens w/o even the system get restarted. Anyway, the main issue here is to know the state of the runtime. We collect a lot of informations about the whole system, and it would be nice to have a way to detect the runtime state.

Post by mira on Bibliotheksentwicklung: Ältere Compiler-Version auswählen ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Bisher war ich es gewohnt, dass ich vor dem "als übersetzte Bibliothek speichern" die Compiler-Version eingestellt habe, die mindestens erforderlich ist. In meinem aktuellen SP20-Development-System ist dies aber nicht mehr möglich. Wenn ich das Bibliotheksprojekt unter SP16 öffne, kann ich eine ältere Compiler-Version einstellen, aber ich kann die Bibliothek nicht als ".compiled-library-v3" speichern. Das "CODESYS Compiler Versions Archive" Addon ist installiert. Wie ist aktuell die Vorgehensweise für die Entwicklung von Bibliotheken mit dem Ziel auch ältere Versionen zu unterstützen?

An interesting remark for CODESYS Support. I found this after looking through the Runtime Deploy Tool messages when I connect to an AMD64 architecture Successfully Connected to Target ( {MyIP} - AMD64 ) when I connect to an ARM64 architecture (Raspberry Pi5) Successfully Connected to Target ( {MyIP} - ) As clearly seen in the attached .png, the AMD64 target is detected, while the ARM64 target architecture is not detected (displayed). I assume that this is the reason why the pulldown menu isn't populated correctly.

Post by stuartjr on POU Private variables ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Pretty sure I know the answer, but thought I would ask just in case. Is there a way to set variables declared in a POU to private so that they can not be accessed from other POUs. I tried using the library pragma, but that just stops the variables being displayed in the selection tree. My compiler version is 2.3.9.62 if that's relevant, and I'm using an ABB AC500 V2 PLC. Cheers
