Post by jkopicz on How can you get the active frame index from a frame ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
In my project, I have frames that I would like to read the current active index. I change the frame index using the onclick properties of a button, then change frame index. I need to do some logic based on which frame index is selected. Is there a way to read the current active index of a frame?

Nun möchte ich den IPC mit einem Visu-Element runterfahren da der Webbrowser im Kiosk-Mode läuft. Das gelingt mir irgendwie nicht. Kann mir da bitte jemand helfen ? Gruß juki

Post by peterkcontrols on Making a Visu Element normally invisible and visible if variable is true ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello I would like an element in my visu to be only visible when a certain Variable is true, currently it is only capable of being normally visible and then invisible if a certain variable is true. Is this possible without programming a new variable to be the opposite of my desired control variable? Thanks.

Problem solved The client modbus cycle time was linked to a task at 500ms. Whereas the channel modbus was at 200ms. Certainly problem of packages synchronisation. I let the client modbus cycle time to be handled by itself (See attachement) --> "Use the bus cyle time parameters" (traduce from french) See attachement

Post by timvh on library is not available ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
1) In the library manager of your project select "Download missing libraries". 2) In the library manager open the "Placeholders" dialog. In here find the Placeholder which is not referenced to a specific library yet. Click in this line on the Library column and select the latest version of this library.

Post by kevinm on Programmatically change Tappet on a cam ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am considering using a SoftMotion cam and tappets to activate functions on a machine - for example, triggering a pneumatic valve. I need the ability to change the actuation point (tappet "X" location) from the HMI during machine commissioning. Is there a way to change the "X" value of a tappet programmatically?

Post by kevinm on Attaching Trace variable to Frame Configuration Variable ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Is it possible to show a variable from a Frame Configuration in a Trace on that Visualization? I want to pass the FB for an AXIS_REF_ETC_SoE_Standard to the visualization and display live axis data in the visualization. However, I cannot find a way to use a Frame Configuration variable in the Trace Configuration dialog.

Post by jampid on url String notation ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Bonjour damian177, Je pense que le problème vient du caractère dollar qu'il faudra doubler. La déclaration sans erreur est celle-ci : sURL:WSTRING(1024) := "https://mydomain.pl/api/rce-lte?$$filter=doba eq 2025-03-18"; De plus il faut bien note la chaîne entre guillemet car au dela de 255 caractères , il s'agit de WString au lieu de String. Bon développment! JM

Hi jbu0105, which error doe you get, exactly? Is it error 11008, SMC_MOVE_INVALID_DYNAMICS? (It might help if you check the "Log" tab in the PLC device and copy the exact error.) Please double-check whether the inputs Velocity, Acceleration, Deceleration, and Jerk of MC_MoveCircularAbsolute have correct (positive) values. Best regards, Georg

Hello, many thanks for your reply. I checked the logs. It seems that dll is not loaded. However other dll such as the Webserver are loaded. Could you tell me what I need to do such that my dll is loaded. (Furthermore I changed the C-Function a bit. I used the M4.exe from the SDK.) Many thanks.

Post by atone on Change IO-Link Device Interface connected to a Profinet-Slave at Runtime ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
OK, I figured out that I can simply define all the sensors as 16 bytes IN/OUT, even if they are not all used. EDIT: The negative effect is that each bit is taken into account as an I/O for the license, even if not used.

Nachdem ich einige Zeit unbehelligt arbeiten konnte, bin ich wieder ausgesperrt, Deinstallieren und Neuinstallation der Nachfolgeversion (SP21) hat nichts gebracht und der Trick, der unter SP18 funktioniert ist mittlerweile verbaut (wie bereits geschrieben). Gibt es evtl. in der Registry einen Ort, an dem ich etwas löschen muss / modifizieren kann?

It would be great if there was a thread that had some quick-start links for basic how-to. But one that advanced programmers can jump into. I found this video playlist by SoftMotion-Black, which was very, very helpful: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkc8m2OD0r9xJyfTiCBb1vuU_d2yBhjZ_ This person has some other great vids like creating your own custom library, which is awesome for OEMS.

Hello, Working in 3.5 SP11 32 bit and using the 3S CANopenSafety Slave 3.5.11.0 library on an IFM CR711S. The 3SCSSD.CANOpenDevicesSIL2 function block keeps throwing "UNSAFESTACK_NOT_OPERATIONAL" Additionally, the Status of the device gives "There was an error accessing an I/O parameter". Any ideas on where my issues may lay? I have not found any good documentation that would explain the issue.

I am trying to create multiple branches in my project and I keep getting gaps in the ladder logic "wiring". I'm not sure if this is a graphical error or something else but every thing I've tried to do to correct it does not work. Has anyone else run into this or know how to correct it?

Post by imdatatas on 3.5 P20 hangs - no response ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, You can give a try it by adding "Codesys.exe" in the "Exclusions > Process" section of the Windows Security Center or your antivirus program. I hope it works for your situation. Antivirus programs check many things during both the installation or startup of an application, and may be slow down or block some functions. Regards Imdat

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)?
