Post by alexgooi on Modbus TCP interface get stuck ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Dear Forum, I'm currently experimenting with Modbus interfaces in combination with a virtual controller. I have the following setup (Modbus_Setup.png): I have an IPC with Debian installed on it (Debian 13). On this Debian machine I have installed a docker server and on this docker server a Codesys runtime container is deployed (Codesys_image.png). The Modbus scanner makes connection with and IO coupler and this works well. But when I physically disconnect the ethernet connection between the IPC and the IO coupler the Modbus interface gets stuck in a state where it gets stuck in the busy state (Modbus_Stuck.png). When I plug the cable back in, the IO coupler isn't communicating until the xBusy variable is manually set to False, after this action is performed the communication goes back to normal. I have tried to set the container network to host and bridge (Network.png), but both version gives the same result (stuck scanner). I would expect that the Modbus interface is generating a timeout after 1 sec, because this is how it is setup (Modbus_settings.png), but this is not what happens. I have thought to write a piece of code that writes xBusy to false when it is stuck but because it is an output I'm not able to write to it. I have tried this with another PC (different CPU/motherboard) but this gives the same outcome. I tried updating to the latest version of Virtual control (4.20) but this gives the same result. I also tried to do the same thing with an ethernet IP scanner, and this gives an error after the timeout is expired (so this works well). I have tried to connect to the IO coupler using the Modbus_FB lib (Modbus_FB.png) the FB's are giving the correct errors and behaving as expected. At last I have tried to use a Scanner on a Codesys controller (no IPC) and here the scanner behaves as expected (an alarm is triggered after the timeout has been expired). The version of the Codesys components are listed in the picture Versions.png Is there anyone that can give me a push in the right direction? Kind regards Alex

Post by alexgooi on Licensing info not available. ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Sorry for the question, but I'm not completely getting the idea here, could you be more specific, maybe give an example? I'm now in a state where I don't have a softcontainer on my license server anymore (even after reinstalling from the Codesys-IDE). I tried reaching the webserver of Codemeter but when I do that I get redirected to http://"IP":22352 This is not reachable, afterwards I installed lynx on my Debian machine (command line only). From here I could reach the webserver and toggle the network server setting, but unfortunately this did not help. I also tried to changed the remote read setting to 1 (in the Server.ini file). But after a Codemeter reboot this is overwritten to 0. I have the feeling that it should be much easier to get a license to work, am I missing some checkbox somewhere? Is there a tutorial (or manual) that explains the licensing sequence step by step, because I'm pretty stuck.

Maybe the example posted it's not so clear, but this is not the problem. The execution of every motion methods is well triggered.

Also. Every third (or so) attempt to login/compile is unsuccessful with the error prompt "one or more errors occurred", however there is no information available on what this error might be. If I remove the PersistenceManager-module, these problems are not present.

I also installed your codesys version with the codesys for raspberry pi package version 4.7.0. but with no succes, only the TCA multiplexer has a constant green turning circle, the ADS1115 still changing from running to not running.

Don't I need a browser on the device for web depot? Could work on the Pi but not the Wago controller. Maximum I have is SSH.

Post by timvh on library is not available ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Which PLC do you use? If it is a standard CODESYS Runtime (from the store), then maybe update the device in your project to the latest version. If it is not a standard CODESYS Runtime, then maybe contact the supplier.

That's because the array only contains structures themselves, not references. It doesn't matter that what consists of each struectures unless they are not pointers.

This solution did not give me peace of mind, so I decided to check other options again, especially since artifacts appear on some controls in WebVis. The solution is to enable the Multitouch handling option in the additional settings tab.

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 ?

Dear Tim, This is the missing link for me. I was not aware of the fact that the docker container is claiming the smallest possible license. Now the serial number makes much more sense. Thank you
