You could use the function AppGetApplicationInfo from CmpApp library. https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/CmpApp/Current/AppGetApplicationInfo.html

The codesys application license allows the use of up to 4 fieldbus instances (eg Modbus). I need to use more instances than that. Can I use the Modbus library instead? Does this usage require a license? Similar to other libraries such as CanOpen, Modbus TCP...

I'm Having the same issue. If I highlight PLC Logic and import it erases everything else and replaces the Task config. If I highlight the Application I get the same result. Simple manual fix is click and drag the task config onto the origional Application, and delete the second one. Easy fix but not the expected result of importing task config.

I'll have a look at this, thanks. Do you maybe know why the C-integration doesn't work? I'm just curious because it was still some effort to create all these files. Ending up with a meaningless error feels very unsatisfying to me...

I've already experimented with two methods, but unfortunately, they only function with projects of type *.project. Consequently, when executing: system.commands["staticanalysis", "run"].execute() For the 2nd Option: You'll need to ensure that in the Static Analysis Settings, the option "Perform static analysis automatically after compilation" is checked. # get Project values myProject = projects.primary # Creates an active application app = myProject.active_application # build Application and run static code analysis app.generate_code()

Hey guys, I'm currently developing a Codesys application for an offline Linux device. I can easily set up the license for ONE device using my Windows PC, but what happens if I need to produce a thousand devices? Is there any method to automate license insertion? I have already generated a dpkg installer for deploying the Linux control application to multiple targets. Thanks,

Hello, I'm experimenting with two applications. I was able to start stop applications with the CmpApp library. Currently in my test the variables declared in the first application are not visible and writable in the second. I ask if there is the possibility of having variables that are visible both in the first application and in the second.

Hi, For many years my application has been running on Raspberry Pi. Now I have ported the application to a PC running with Debian OS with Codesys Control for Linux SL. Most of things works. But some is wrong with serial ports. Firstly , I wonder why /etc/CODESYSControl.cfg in Debian is empty ?

Really not clear what you are trying to do, but isn't a Struct enough? So add an object of the type DUT to the Application. Then create a structure TYPE ST_Sensor : STRUCT sName : STRING; uiNumber : UINT; END_STRUCT END_TYPE Then in you application add an instance of this Structure stSensor1 : ST_Sensor := (sName := 'my sensor', uiNumber := 1); or use it like this stSensor1.sName := 'my sensor';

Hi, i guess you want to make a hour counter. You need to store the measured value. Try to use a retain variable, but need a graceful shutdown, or save it your self. see https://forge.codesys.com/forge/talk/Runtime/thread/278e325579/ Succes.

I have now renamed my recipe to Parameter and now use SaveRecipeAs. The correct folder is displayed in the dialogue box, but the recipe is not saved. What could be the reason for this, write permissions? Recipe manager buggy?

I've workaround it by not using an array but 30 instances of the struct and putting these in the recipe, and then using converter functions to save and load

It would be such a simple fix to first check if the file is missing or changed before writing to it, onedrive only has a problem because codesys writes to the file every second no matter the change.

Hi, I am looking for a good way to update a decice remotely. The devices are distributed worldwide and have normally no connection to the internet. The CODESYS Automation Server can't help here. So I want to update the decices via USB stick. I have written my own code* to update the files that are created with ‘Create boot application’. But sometimes strange things happen: visu elements are present, but are not found the application is no longer registered and therefore no longer starts I have not yet found out why these errors occur. Has anyone had similar problems or found a better way? Is there perhaps a CODESYS library or something else? Many thanks! *the code deletes the directories on the device and copies the new directories from the USB stick while the system is running (goes without saying)

Hello, I have a PLC in a remote location. I can connect to it, but when I use a different PC, it asks me to re-download to the PLC - which will a) interrupt production and b) cause version issues. Codesys being open-source, if someone else has made changes, I need to be able to connect, upload the current project, compare it with mine and then decide what next. Every time I connect, it says Warning: An application 'Application' is currently in RUN mode on the PLC. As there is no matching compile information, this existing application needs to be replaced. Click 'Yes' to download the latest code or 'No' to abort. What am I doing wrong?

CODESYS Forge
talk

We've been experiencing an issue through SP18, SP19 and now SP20 where the Persistence Variables do not retain if we upload our program via a Boot Application. If we use the exact same program, and perform a Direct Upload via the Laptop and Ethernet connection, the Persistence Variables work exactly as expected. I have submitted 2 bug support tickets but I haven't had a response back from Codesys. Has anybody experienced the same issues and discovered a workaround? We have a requirement to utilise the Boot Application method because of logistical restrictions of being able to get out to every site, so at the moment it's a bit restriction.

Post by adaml on ScriptEngine - execute "Export -> Bootproject and firmware (SD Card)" from python
CODESYS Forge

Hi everybody, recently I was checking how many time consuming manual tasks I can perform with python scripts through ScriptEngine. I have in the project many devices and currently I export bootprojects for them by right clicking on Application, then go Export -> Bootproject and firmware (SD Card) and then point folder where files should be exported. It's fine if project has few devices, but I have some of them with over 30 devices and manual clicking like that is very time consuming. How can I do it with python script? So far I found "create_boot_application" method from Application object (taken by projects.primary.find('Application', True)) but it only generates .app and .crc file instead of full structure to store on SD card (FIRMWARE, USERDATA, SDCARD.INI, Version, Version.txt.sig). Should I use some method to control user interface? Best regards, Adam
