i am facing same data sync issue. i am use two 750-8212 (FW30) controllers. datas are sync from active to standby during changeover time, but datas are not sync from standby to active.

It works well with two Wago 750-8210's. I helped a few customers setting this up. But it should work with any device which can control EtherCAT I/O, is real-time and has sufficient network interfaces. Two network adapters can be used to create a redundant EtherCAT network (you need 2 additional switches for this). The other network adapters can be used to interconnect the 2 PLC's (synchronization). We noticed that if you exchange variable lists that there could be some issues if you have long lists. So what we did is use a SoftPLC on a server that contains all the settings which continuously sends network packages (GVL sender) and which is received by both PLC's (network receiver). Switching over is done in milliseconds. The bus doesn't notice the change-over. EtherCAT communication works flawlessly.

Is there any update on this?

Can anyone shed some light on this issue im having. at random, sometimes days, sometimes weeks or months. i get this error and have to reset the plc. Im using a Weintek HMI with ethernet/ip remote io and vsd. i have tried increasing my task times and watchdogs. and when i view my PLCload in the shell its normally around 3-4%, highest ive ever seen is 7%. Nothing i do seems to help the issue. Could the HMI's Codesys CPU be getting to hot do to high ambient temp?

Hi TimvH, thanks for feedback. I also test the redundancy with Wago PFC 8212 but when I did it (firmware 28) it was not so much stable..Did you have some issue on master/slave switchover? are you using with EtherCAT remote I/O? I was looking for a most powerful hardware (PC based, x64) BR

Hi! I hade made a visualization within Codesys V3.5 SP21 Patch 3, where i call for the user management and login. The VisuUserManagement.VMU_Login and VisuUserManagement.VMU_Login2 are to small for the screen it looks good and works fine if you are on a computer with large scrren but gets finicky on the smaller screen. any ide´s how to make the login dialog bigger?

Is this a known problem within the CodeSys development team ? If yes, how do you follow CM4 hardware evolutions ? Is there a way of making this work without having to update the runtime version ? We have several products working with the 4.13.0.0 runtime and we would like to avoid having to update them all. BR

I have to install "Basic M" and "Visualization M", but it seems that during installation of "Basic M" you have to enable "Visualization S" I assume if you here after want to install my "Visualization M". And I forgot to enable "Visualization S" How do I fix that?

For the DynamicText error i have finally found a solution. You have to delete some libraries from your project. For me it was the WagoSysIcon library which wanted to reference dynamictexts even though i didn't have any in my project.

Hi. What type of PLC do you have? What activation method do you use? What license ticket did you purchase and want to activate? Can you describe the process you followed step by step?

no - you need to update, smallest impakt is just to install the debiab package on target side. Nothing else ( no updates in CODESYS)

Post by nickpoon on SysProcessCreate stopped working after SP21? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I'm going through the process of updating the CODESYS Project a machine to 3.5 SP21 (old version was 3.5 SP20). One function that stopped working when upgrading was SysProcessCreate. I need to run a .exe file that is located in C:\Program Files\MQTTStream. Some initial searching suggested that there are new security rules that prevent the SoftPLC from reading/writing files to outside of its Device folder (located here - C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming\CODESYS\CODESYSControlWinV3x64\24FD6770) Relocating files helped fix my JSON file reader/writer functions (which were failing previously), but not the case for SysProcessCreate. I've even attempted to just run window's cmd.exe and with: pszCommandLine = 'cd /d C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Roaming\CODESYS\CODESYSControlWinV3x64\24FD6770\PlcLogic\MQTTStream & sift-proxy.exe --grpc_uri="https://grpc-api.siftstack.com" --api_key="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" mqtt-client --broker_ip=10.0.10.101 --broker_port=1883 --config_file="mqtt_telemetry_config.json" --username Plantd --password 1234 --stream_metrics --storage_path="sift-proxy-logs"' I have not been able to find a lot of documentation on this, and I suspect the new update may have created a bug for SysProcessCreate. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Post by gatto on Two licenses have to be installed forgot to enable one license ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Sorry, I've never used Raspy. Maybe someone else can help. From personal experience, I've had license activation issues, but it was caused by my company firewall, which was blocking traffic from the Codesys license server. So I found that the license was listed as activated on the server (and therefore used and no longer activable), but it wasn't present in the PLC. I solved the problem by using an unblocked internet connection when I needed to activate the purchased license ticket. Since then, the activation process has always worked, and I've never lost any licenses.

For me going to Project -> Project Settings -> Visualisation -> check "Visible" and then check both "Activate property handling ..." and "Activate implicit checks ..." solved the problem.
