Post by bnewman on IECStringUtils.FormatDateTime ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Update as of 2025: This function (IECStringUtils.FormatDateTime) doesn't make any sense there isn't any parameter that accepts a Date_Time value. I have no idea what's purpose even is. I am going to use StuSprintf from the StringUtils library for this purpose.

Hi Lamine97, if you are struggling with the LD implementation it would be more helpful for us to see that code in a screenshot.

Post by davidbo on Why is Application_DataLog.sqlite not moved to my directory ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
In CODESYScONTROL_User.cfg I have [SysFile] FilePath.1=/etc/, .dat FilePath.2=/home/pi/DataLog/, .sqlite, .sqlite.metadata, .sqlite-journal, .sqlite.tmp PlcLogicPrefix=1 Should that not write the Application_DataLog.sqlite in the /home/pi/DataLog/ directory? Or how do move the working directory for AC_Datalog ?

Post by pernockham on Persistence Manager: Config File not found? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Ok, think I understand. The reason for the error is I try to include complex variables (FB) in the persistenced data. I will try to use {attribute 'ac_persist_exclude'} to exclude those elements.

You don't have to create 2 libraries. CODESYS will handle it automatically based on the selected device in your application.

Post by eschwellinger on CODESYS control on RPi starts, shortly runs, then exits ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
in case you are using latest hw revision, there have been added some mac adresses - for the 4.17.0.0 release this might solve it. If not we need to investigate deeper. If it is application related you need to check the plclogger.

Post by pernockham on AC Persistence - values are not read from file during start? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For the protocol. What also works is to do the process via ssh (using runtime on linux) sudo /etc/init.d/codesyscontrol stop modify the persistence file values sudo /etc/init.d/codesyscontrol start

There still is no solution to this. I am running Modbus version 4.4.0.0 and it still wont let me add more than 10 channels. Does anyone have a solution for this?

Hi Artur, as mentioned by imdatatas, homing when not enabled is not supported in SoftMotion. If enabling before homing is not an option, an alternative might be controller based homing using MC_SetPosition. Best regards, Georg

Do not filter on Phoenix devices. First add an Ethernet device (from CODESYS). Then add a Profinet Controller (from CODESYS). Then add your Phoenix devices to this CODESYS Profinet Controller.

Post by gseidel on AXIS_REF_SM3 Error Codes? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi SLUCodesys, dwErrorId is a drive specific error number. The drive documentation should be consulted to interpret it. (Note that you should use MC_ReadAxisError to read this error, see https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/SM3_Basic/Current/SM3_Basic/POUs/Diagnostics/MC_ReadAxisError.html. Accessing the internal variable will result in outdated values if the acis error is not mapped by PDO and is not recommended in general.) uiDriveInterfaceError holds errors of the SoftMotion driver for the drive. It is also an internal variable, not intended for direct access. It is intended for logging, the PLC log will contain the drive interface error, consisting of this number and an error text. My recommendation for handling axis errors in the CODESYS application: 1) Use MC_ReadStatus on the axis to find out whether it is in state Errorstop 2) If in Errorstop, there are two possibilities: an error reported by the drive (MC_ReadAxisError) or an error of the SoftMotion function blocks (output MC_ReadStatus.FBErrorOccured). 3) If there is no drive error, you can use SMC_ReadFBError https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/libs/SM3_Basic/Current/SM3_Basic/POUs/Diagnostics/FBError/SMC_ReadFBError.html Best regards, Georg
