Hi, once in a while I get an Access Violation exception in Sherd memory pointer. the strange thing is that I protect the pointer dereference and I get this exception 1 line after the protection. I added photos of the exception can someone tell me what is that about?

Post by osande on Trend/trace data ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ok, the problem is that the trend/trace system can't read function block instance data. The variables has to be stored directly under the program calling the FBs. Thus, FB variables to be trended/traced must be connected to variables declared in the program. Seems like a bug to me!

Georg, the encoder's actual position was -208 because I moved it manually for testing, but I managed to get it working. Your information is correct; there was a parameter error, Kp was at 0. After I adjusted it, it responded as expected. Thank you very much for your help.

Post by alexgooi on No Bootproject possible ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello Simon, Thank you for your response. The problem occurs after about 10 online changes, after this a full download is required, but that means that the installation is going down. Is it possible to enlarge the space reserved for online changes, so that the problem occurs after 100 online changes for example? Kind regards Alex

Post by alexgooi on Network variable stops sending ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Are you making use of structs in the NVL? In the past I had similar behavior (NVL stops sending) when I added something in the struct. if you are making use of structs makes sure that the structs are identical in both projects. If this is not the case, have you tried changing the port number to something different than 1202?

thank you eschwellinger. That one solved it for me. The password must have a length of at least 8 characters. The password must consist of at least 4 different characters. The password must contain lowercase letters. The password must contain uppercase letters. The password must contain digits. The password must contain special characters.

Post by josepmariarams on Limit Axis CNC Jerk using SMC_Polynomial_AbsMaxLocs ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I am using both functions for: I override SMC_LimitDynamics o calculate the individual axis jerk on polynomial movements. LimitDynamics only controls acceleration and velocity, it's not enought to create smooth movements. To solve the problem when smothing path create loops. It seems that polynomial passes two times by the same point and smc_smooth path chooses incorrect one.

I ran into this issue as well. Here is the fix: Good example: CASE iBitmap OF 0 : sName := 'ImagePool.image0'; 1 : sName := 'ImagePool.image1'; END_CASE Bad example (this will only work on the target device, WebVisu will show a blank rectangle): CASE iBitmap OF 0 : sName := '/home/cds-apps/PlcLogic/visu/image0.png'; 1 : sName := '/home/cds-apps/PlcLogic/visu/image1.png'; END_CASE

Post by ilarioimi on Date Picker ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I am new here and need some help. I have added the Date Picker to a visualization page. The date selection works, but the current day is not highlighted. The date and time are displayed correctly by the system, which is set by default to “VisuElems.Visu_DateTime.DisplayUTC:= FALSE;”. Is there some project setting or Visualization Manager setting that I am missing? Thank you. Ilario.

Ok, I think I understand. The problem is my language-setting being "swedish". I will check if I can switch to english. Update/confirmed. Change LANG to en_GB, this enabled the architechture to be correct and the control SL again to appear and to be possible to be updated. Thanks!

Post by gseidel on Absolute movement controlled by an external encoder. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi polyautomacao, hmm, did you tune the PD parameters as shown in the link I posted above? One thing that could cause the behavior are bad parameters. I also don't understand the screen shot: when you hold the encoder to 0, why is the actual position of the DrivePosControl -208? Best regards, Georg

Post by captaincookie on increase default string length in queue ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I'm using Codesys V3.5 SP18 Patch 4. In the ElementCollectionExample Project from Codesys, I test the SimpleQueueExample in a Control Win V3 x64 environment. I try to add a string of 95 characters length to a queue. The default length of strings is defined as 80 characters. In the initialization of a string variable, it is possible to increase the length by the definition of e.g. STRING(1000). But when I write the string defined like this to the queue, only 80 characters are written to it and the rest is missing. I think the default length is still set in the queue definition, so it is necessary to change this, isn't it? Is there any option to increase the default length of strings in the queue? Attached you can find the used project. Thanks in advance. If any information are missing or my description unclear please let me know.

Post by annd on Migration von "CODESYS Control for PFC200 SL" zu WAGO FW26 "CODESYS V3.5.19.2" ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ich hab's hinbekommen: Nach dem Controller Update hab ich ein neues Projekt gemacht und nur den PFC200(8212) eingefügt (es erscheint dann ein leerer Kbus und eine serielle Schnittstelle COM1). Dann hab ich mich am Controller eingeloggt und den Kbus (Rechtsklick: Geräte suchen) mit allen Modulen automatisch ergänzen lassen. Bei den leeren Modulen hab ich dann das E/A-Abbild in csv exportiert. Dasselbe hab ich bei meinem alten "PFC200 SL" Projekt gemacht. Und dann in Excel alle Variablennamen in die leeren csv kopiert und danach wieder im neuen Projekt importiert. Dann hab ich noch alle Programmblöcke, Tasks, Visualisierungen und auch Modbus TCP Master u. Slave und auch Modbus COM Port Master und Slave in das neue Projekt kopiert. Weiters hab ich alle notwendigen Bibliotheken im Bibliotheksverwalter eingefügt. Dann noch ein paar kleine Fehler korrigiert (ich musst einen anderen Block zum Lesen der Uhrzeit nehmen) bis ich das neue Projekt fehlerfrei übersetzen konnte. Dann konnte ich es auf den Wago Controller übertragen und direkt starten. Es sieht so aus, dass alles läuft. Gruß annD

Post by climblinne on Calling OPC UA Methods from UaExpert ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I hope someone could help me. I installed the newest Codesys 3.5 SP 20 Patch 1. When loading the demo files from @i-campbell I can upgrade them to the latest version and everthing works on the OPC-UA client side as expected (object "a" is visible, I can use the "ExampleMethod"). Now I * remove the "Information Model", * delete the "OPC_UA_Symbols Objects", * Add "Information Model" again * add "TestRootObjectType" again and "Generate IEC declarations" * and search for mapped instances (to get instance "a" again) Very good still working as expected. Now I delete the OPC_UA_Symbols and add it again referring to the "objecttest" from 16.9.2020. Also I redo the steps from above. The result is now, that I can't see the "a" object in the "Root/Objects" folder. Why ist this and how can I make it running? I think, it could may be a different version of the UA configuration file. I tried to build my own model definition files and got the same problem (but I am really not an expert). When someone has a actual model, which is also running in the actual Codesys I would be very grateful. Or even better, how to make the correct model in e.g. UA Modeler SW (I followed the description https://documentation.unified-automation.com/uamodeler/1.6.0/html/howprojnet_sec.html).
