It's already fine to use, with help of exporting/importing as PLC_Open, at least CODEX is good in editing directly at XML and/or providing changes description separately.

Post by kunal-pinetics on USB Communication for IP Configuration & Application Update – STM32H Series PLC ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello everyone, I am currently working on a PLC device based on the STM32H series MCU, running CODESYS. At the moment, I can: Change the Ethernet IP address Update/download the PLC application via Ethernet without any issues. However, I would like to implement the same functionality over USB (or Serial via USB) instead of Ethernet. My goals are: Change the device’s Ethernet IP address via USB Download/update the PLC application via USB communication Possibly use USB as a service/programming interface The hardware platform is based on STM32H series, and I am looking for guidance on: Whether CODESYS supports USB device communication for runtime download If a custom USB CDC (Virtual COM Port) implementation is required Whether a specific CODESYS runtime configuration is needed If a bootloader approach is recommended for application updates via USB If anyone has experience implementing USB communication for runtime download or device configuration on an STM32-based PLC, I would really appreciate your guidance. Thank you in advance for your help.

Post by fpawlak on How to register own component - CMAddComponent() or CMAddComponent2() ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi All, I wonder which way is correct or better? I would like to register my own component in order to use it in CMPLog. I can use CMAddComponent() or CMAddComponent2() to do it. The main difference is whether I provide udiCmpId myself or it will be generated by runtime. But I don't know which way is correct. Please look at those two examples below. I don't know if CMAddComponent2() is newer and then should be used? CMAddComponent() + providing my own udiCmpId //16#FFFF0000 for unknown myVendorId := 16#FFFF0000; myLibId := 1; myComponentId := myVendorId OR CMPID_IecCode OR myLibId; componentHandle := CMAddComponent(pszComponent:= 'myComponent', udiCmpId:= myComponentId, udiVersion:= 1, pResult:= ADR(result)); IF componentHandle <> RTS_INVALID_HANDLE AND result = CmpErrors.Errors.ERR_OK THEN LogAdd2( hLogger:= STD_LOGGER, udiCmpID:= myComponentId, udiClassID:= CmpLog.LogClass.LOG_ERROR, udiErrorID:= 0, udiInfoID:= 0, pszInfo:= 'myComponent regidtered succsefull.' ); ELSE LogAdd2( hLogger:= STD_LOGGER, udiCmpID:= CMPID_CmpMgr, udiClassID:= CmpLog.LogClass.LOG_ERROR, udiErrorID:= 0, udiInfoID:= 0, pszInfo:= 'Error while regidtering myComponent.'); END_IF CMAddComponent2() + udiCmpId generated by runtime componentHandle := CMAddComponent2(pszComponent:= 'myComponent2', udiVersion:= 1, udiCmpId:= ADR(myComponentId), pResult:= ADR(result)); IF componentHandle <> RTS_INVALID_HANDLE AND result = CmpErrors.Errors.ERR_OK THEN LogAdd2( hLogger:= STD_LOGGER, udiCmpID:= myComponentId, udiClassID:= CmpLog.LogClass.LOG_ERROR, udiErrorID:= 0, udiInfoID:= 0, pszInfo:= 'myComponent2 regidtered succsefull.' ); ELSE LogAdd2( hLogger:= STD_LOGGER, udiCmpID:= CMPID_CmpMgr, udiClassID:= CmpLog.LogClass.LOG_ERROR, udiErrorID:= 0, udiInfoID:= 0, pszInfo:= 'Error while regidtering myComponent2.'); END_IF

Post by shamcke on Array with generic constant as persistent variable ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, I have written a function block that uses a generic constant for the upper bound of an array. I wanted to have this array in the persistent memory area, thus I constructed my FB as follows: FUNCTION_BLOCK FbWithGenericArrayLength VAR_GENERIC CONSTANT uiArrayLength : UINT := 10; END_VAR VAR PERSISTENT arr : ARRAY[1..uiArrayLength] OF INT; END_VAR In my PLC_PRG I declare an instance of said FB PROGRAM PLC_PRG VAR myFb : FbWithGenericArrayLength<10>; END_VAR This compiles just fine. When I let CODESYS fill my persistent list, it adds duplicate entries {attribute 'qualified_only'} VAR_GLOBAL PERSISTENT RETAIN // Generated instance path of persistent variable PLC_PRG.myFb.arr: ARRAY [1..uiArrayLength] OF INT; // Generated instance path of persistent variable PLC_PRG.myFb.arr: ARRAY [1..uiArrayLength] OF INT; END_VAR so I manually delete the duplicate. When i now compile, I get errors ------ Build started: Application: Device.Sim.Device.Application ------- Typify code... [ERROR] Sandbox_FW31: PersistentVars [Device: PLC Logic: Application](Line 4): C0161: Border 'uiArrayLength' of array is no constant value [ERROR] Sandbox_FW31: PersistentVars [Device: PLC Logic: Application](Line 4): Type of mapped variable is not equal to original type Compile complete -- 2 errors, 0 warnings Build complete -- 2 errors, 0 warnings : No download possible Is is simply not possible to use a generic constant for the persistent array? Thanks in advance. Edit: It seems I can manually replace the uiArrayLength in the persisten list by the value 10 I used as the generic constant for this particular instance.

Post by dantheman on Connecting to SoftPLC Only Works By Turning Off Modbus Ethernet Port ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have an IPC with 2 ethernet ports and 1 Wi-Fi. I'm using ModbusTCP with the ethernet port named "enp2s0" connected to my remote I/O. This works fine when testing with Python and also works with CODESYS, but CODESYS is only able to scan for the Linux SoftPLC when I turn off the "enp2s0" interface. In other words, I can't get online with the IDE if I want my ModbusTCP comms to run with CODESYS. I'm using a Linux SoftPLC that has the following entry in CODESYSControl.cfg, hoping that this will allow me to connect with "enp1s0" or "wlp3s0", and leave "enp2s0" for field comms, but this seems to only make the source IP of the ModbusTCP comms to be bound to "enp2s0". That last point is the case only if I don't restart the service, but if I do restart the service after changing the config file, the source IP for the ModbusTCP comms then becomes the one for "enp1s0", which is very confusing to me: [SysSocket] Adapter.0.Name="enp2s0" Adapter.0.EnableSetIpAndMask=1 On the device list, I only have "enp2s0" given as the ethernet device that has the ModbusTCP master & slave beneath it, shown in Screenshot 1. On the IPC, I can ping the ModbusTCP client (remote I/O) from "enp2s0", and I've attached a Wireshark capture of running ModbusTCP from the CODESYS runtime as Screenshot 2, 3 & 4 (again, I can't get online when this is running, I have to turn off "enp2s0" to connect even when it's idle and I don't have an active TCP session with my Python tests). Like I explained above, the source IP is "enp1s0", even though the ethernet device on the project is "enp2s0". I was lucky to catch the red message that showed the source IP that makes sense to me (the one for "enp2s0"), but for some reason that connection was reset and I never saw that packet again. I've also tried this with Auto-reconnect both enabled & disabled, for the ModbusTCP Master device. I also have to turn off "enp1s0" and then turn it on, just so that I can have the ModbusTCP comms running from "enp2s0" (which is not intuitive in any way to me, I'd love some help understanding that phenomenon as well) in the weird manner that I've described above. I would be very appreciative if someone can help me figure out this pickle. I'd love to just connect to CODESYS through my Wi-Fi interface and leave my ethernet ports for field comms.

Post by eoahe on Problem Reading Registers via Modbus from non Codesys device ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hey Guys :) I have the following Problem using Modbus via Codesys: I'm trying to implement a Modbus Device into my codesys project. The device is a Router from Teltonika (RUT956) and it can communicate via Modbus. Currently I'm trying to implement it into my codesys prject as a slave and I'm using my windows computer as master. As it is not a codesys device (the codesys application is not uploaded to device as it has its own software) I'm having problems requesting and reading registers from the router. I've set up my windows computer as Master and implemented the router as slave. When I go online on my master device it sais that it has established a connection to the slave (router)(So I'm thinking this could work as there is a connection?). The goal is to read the GPS (latitude and longitude) data and on the homepage of teltonika you can find the register address and number of registers (adress 143 for latitude and 145 for longitude; both have a number of two registers). I've found tutorials how to read specific registers via their register address with other modbus programs (like modbus-cli), but as my entire project is established in codesys I was hoping to read these specific registers via codesys so that I can show the GPS data on my dashboard. I've tried establishing slave channels but that hasn't been working. I tried read input register channels of the length 4 but it's not possible to define specific register addresses to read via codesys so that didn't work (I jsut get a slaves device failure) and I've also tried establishing 516 (total number of registers the router sends I think?) read inputregister channels but that has the samle failure... So i guess the problem I'm having is establishing slave channels to read these specific registers. Does anyone know how to tackle this problem and has maybe had the same problem? Or maybe someone knows a workaround? I'm quite new to codesys so maybe I'm also lacking expertise...

Post by madskaizer on Task Priority Documentation? ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi All I was watching the Wago PFC300 webinar ( https://www.wago.com/global/lp-thank-you-onlineseminar-pfc-300 ), and the presenters comment about priority 1 being way above the Ethernet task priority, so that a priority 1 PLC program can actually loose SCADA connection, made me try to round up some hard evidence on Codesys Priorities. I find there is very little information on "correct" task priority configuration. There is a lot of different hardware manufacturers, using Codesys Runtime, that has different descriptions in their manuals on how to set up priority. https://doku.amk-motion.com/en/Subsystems/PDK_202975_A-Serie_en/Content/Projekt/AMKAMAC/PDK_202975_A4-A5_Produktbeschreibung/Funktionalitaet/PLC-Programming/PLC%20Tasks.htm?TocPath=PLC-Programming%7C_____7 https://product-help.schneider-electric.com/Machine%20Expert/V1.1/en/SoMProg/index.htm?#t=SoMProg%2FTask_Editor%2FTask_Editor-7.htm&rhsearch=priority&rhhlterm=priority&rhsyns=%20&SUBSTRSRCH=1 https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/CODESYS%20Development%20System/_cds_f_task_configuration.html So my questions :) 1) If there is only 1 PLC_PRG task, does priority matter? 2) What is the priority of Ethernet / communication, if nothing is entered? 3) What is the priority of Codesys OPC UA server? 4) Some users here on forge mentions that Wago PLC programs should run as priority 11, but where does this recommendation origin from? 5) What are you recommendations for a relatively slow process, like building automation? It uses OPC UA for communication to SCADA, maybe some MODBUS-RTU and MODBUS-TCP, usually around 100 I/O, been running with everything in a single task at priority 1, 50-100ms cycle time. Some controllers have separate MODBUS tasks, but doesn't seem like a big difference. How would you recommend splitting up communication, IO fieldbus and programs into differently prioritized tasks? I know its a complex matter and all about my application, but I really miss there was just some kind of guidance in the documentations and with all new standard Codesys programs having priority 1 as default, makes it seem less important, than it really is.

Post by kurtk on SysProcess Execute Command unable to run commands with special characters ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Thank you for this additional information. Could you please provide the references to the official documentation where you found this information ? I got as far as: Then insert this: [SysProcess] BasePriority=Realtime Command=AllowAll devoid of references of where the CodesysContol.cfg file was located or of the need to run codesys as root I incrementally located bits of information with perplexity searches but remained mired at error 25 ERR_NO_ACCESS I am curious whether root access is MANDATORY to run SysProcessExecuteCommand (- and/or any other SysProcess functions) or if a more access-constrained User=quasiroot could suffice without the security concerns ? Apparently codesys runs fine without User=root for almost everything... That raises the question: What IS the default codesys user ? I notice in the prototypes: VAR sCommand : STRING := '/usr/bin/whoami'; sOutput : STRING(255); refCommand : REFERENCE TO STRING; refOutput : REFERENCE TO STRING; resultCmd : UDINT; END_VAR whenever I attempt to build this Codesys v3.5 SP2 whines that "cannot convert type REFERENCE TO STRING to STRING" don't remember the exact message... Apparently this happens whenever a fixed-length string is involved. if I get rid of (255) and just set the string := ' '; that is sufficient to make the compiler happy. Is this a recently enforced constraint ? Why does this compile for you and not for me ? There are references to functions / utilities which are used/needed to massage the string references - but I see no specific details... I also notice you specify: Make sure the lib SysProcessImplementation, SysTypes, and CmpErrors is on the project. I don't comprehend why all of the dependent libraries are not automatically referenced, added ? I don't recall seeing anywhere but here that SysProcessImplementation must be included... It just seems odd that the default is to exclude essential libraries, or require alchemical conjuring to assemble all the ingredients for gnat soup ;-) Thanks a lot... I'm still a codesys newby getting my wheels on - or sometimes just partially on

Post by hammer on Cartesian XY Chart — 2-D array binding: "Element to use" enumerates the wrong dimension ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Title: Cartesian XY Chart — 2-D array binding: "Element to use" enumerates the wrong dimension; documented example (Dialog: XY Chart Configuration, "Two-dimensional array of base type REAL") appears transposed Product / version: CODESYS Development System V3.5 SP21 Patch 40 (3.5.21.40). Cartesian XY Chart visualization element (System_VisuElemXYChart / VisuElemXYChart). Summary: When a curve's Data X/Data Y is bound to a two-dimensional array, the element treats the last array dimension as the per-point record (the one selected by "Element to use") and iterates the first dimension as the sequence of curve points. The online documentation's worked example has the dimensions in the opposite order, so following it produces a non-functional curve and a nonsensical "Element to use" list. Steps to reproduce (fails — matches the documented layout): 1. Declare aData : ARRAY[0..1, 0..4095] OF LREAL; (2 data sets × 4096 points, i.e. first dimension = set, second = point). 2. In XY Chart Configuration, bind a curve's Data X (and Y) Variable to this array. 3. Observe the "Element to use" combobox. Actual result: The "Element to use" combobox lists 4096 entries (the indices of the second dimension) instead of 2 (the data sets in the first dimension). Selecting a row does not produce the expected curve; at most a single/degenerate point is plotted. Steps to reproduce (works — transposed): 1. Declare aData : ARRAY[0..4095, 0..1] OF LREAL; (points first, set second). 2. Bind Data X/Y to this array; "Element to use" now correctly lists [0] and [1]. 3. Populate aData[point, set] and the curve plots as expected. Expected result: Either the documented example should select the data set from the first dimension (as its [1]/[2] "Element to use" implies), or the documentation should state that the last dimension is the record dimension (stride) and the first dimension is the point sequence — consistent with how the element actually behaves. Analysis: The behavior is self-consistent if the element always walks a single array by a fixed byte stride, reading one element per point — the same mechanism as the documented "one-dimensional array of a DUT" case, where it strides by SIZEOF(DUT) and "Element to use" picks the member offset. For a 2-D array the record is the last dimension: to plot column/set c it starts at [0, c] and strides by the last-dimension length to reach [1, c], [2, c], … (row-major layout makes this a contiguous column walk). Under that rule, ARRAY[0..N, 0..1] is correct (record length 2 → "Element to use" [0]/[1]), and the documented ARRAY[1..2, 1..50] with "Element to use" [1]/[2] is transposed. Documentation reference: Dialog: XY Chart Configuration → Data X / Data Y → "Example: Two-dimensional array of the base type REAL" (ARRAY[1..2, 1..50], Element to use [1]/[2], "100 array values are displayed"). This example does not plot as described in 3.5.21.40; transposing to ARRAY[1..50, 1..2] does. Request: Please confirm whether this is (a) a documentation error (example dimensions reversed) or (b) an element defect (combobox enumerates the wrong dimension). Either way, a corrected example plus an explicit statement of which dimension is the point sequence vs. the record/stride dimension would prevent others from hitting this. Two separate 1-D arrays for Data X and Data Y work correctly and are unaffected.

Post by artplc on 3.5 P20 hangs - no response ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Subject: Solution: CODESYS Freezes Linked to Large Symbol Configuration (OPC UA) Hello everyone, I was experiencing the same problem as many here: CODESYS (v3.5 SP20+) freezing during compilation and download, especially on projects that use OPC UA for SCADA. The only workaround was to run Build > Clean all before every download. I believe I have found the root cause and a permanent solution. The Problem: The issue is directly related to a large Symbol Configuration. In my project, I only need about 700 tags for OPC UA, but the Symbol Configuration list was showing over 250,000 tags. This is because it automatically includes all variables from Global Variable Lists (GVLs) and other memory areas. When any static variable is changed, the IDE tries to rebuild this enormous list, causing it to freeze for several minutes. The Solution: Instead of letting CODESYS export every variable by default, you can use a pragma to tell it which variables or GVLs to exclude from the symbol export process. Place the following pragma at the top of any GVL or data structure that you do not want to be part of the symbol configuration: 1 {attribute 'symbol' := 'none'} 2 VAR_GLOBAL 3 // All variables in this GVL will now be excluded from the 4 // Symbol Configuration by default. 5 InternalVariable1 : INT; 6 InternalVariable2 : BOOL; 7 END_VAR After adding this pragma to all the GVLs that were not needed for OPC UA, the number of tags in my Symbol Configuration dropped to the correct amount. The compilation and download process is now fast again, with no freezing. This method is much more efficient than manually managing the symbol list in the editor. I hope this helps others who are facing this frustrating issue. Best regards.

Post by cer-wa on Not able to connect multiple profinet encoder in codesys Linux ARM64 ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hello, currently im working with a RevPi connect 5 on a codesys project. Up until now I was having a blast because things were going really smooth but for like almost a day im kind of stuck on the integration of multiple profinet sensors into my project. This is kind of a bummer because that should be an easy thing to do. What I tried so far was to create and additional ethernet adapter where I then tried to connect my devices. in the beginning I tried to connect the devices directly which was not working because I could assign the IP-adress only to the ethernet adapter and not to the devices but the device was found in the device repository (this gets important in the second part) So what I tried next was to setup a PN-Controller and connect my devices subsequently to the Controller. Sadly now the devices wont show up in the device repository anymore. To me its not clear why this is happening. And the worst thing is: I went ahead and setup a device completely like I would want to have it in the project and when I then click on scan devices I can even find the device. But it can not be added to project for whatever reason eventhough im 100% certain that the gsdml file is the correct one. Can anyone help me with this. Like I said this seems like an easy thing to do and its taking me way longer than expected already. The only thing that came to my mind why this might not work is because I have codesys license which only allows one profinet instance. Could that be the case? The error message seems then pretty unfit but ok. I will be grateful for every advice. Thanks in advance! Best regards!
