    I am CODESYS neophyte getting my wheels on. My goal is to re-platform an existing PLC application written in 61131 ST I've got the majority of the code/variables in a compilable form - excluding all the IO and comms nuances I am not sure whether this the right forum An important functionality which I implemented on the other platform was totally dynamic modbus devices... Most configurations I have come across impose static MB configs in which all configured devices MUST be present and functional......

    ditto I'm just getting my codesys wheels on and the modbus stuff is confusing. I am re-platforming an existing PLC application On that platform one could simply tag variables to register numbers and the whole shooting match could be accessed via modbus and typically holding registers and input registers were treated the same way... On codesys I see there is a modbus TCP server Device I/O mapping tab and a Modbus TCP server IEC objects tab I get the sense that one can configure the serving of variables...

    Somehow the individual elements need to be gathered into a frame

    I am trying to customize a visualization template. The specific context is the FB_HeatingControl visualization It appears that there is a visualization consisting of elements encapsulated into a frame - (no modifications can be made here) and if one digs further down into the common toolbox/visualization one finds a visualization consisting of the separate elements within the frame which cam be customized and made more compact. However, it is unclear how to reassemble those elements into a frame...

    OK, so I download HMI Example and open it in Codesys I notice that there is a LibForHMIDemo.library file in the .zip I get an error that a bunch of libraries are not installed, so I monkey around in the library manager and eventually the libraries all get downloaded and installed - except for LibraryForHMIDemo, 1.0.0.2 I expect there should be some mechanism to load a local .library file - but found nothing... OK... moving along, I tried to build again - got a whole bunch of errors - in example demo...

    I am getting the same message codesys demo style 3.5.6.1 (codesys GmbH) not installed when loading the HMIDemo.project When I attempt to build it, I first have to download and install all the missing libraries, I notice that there is a LibForHMIDemo.library file in the .zip and LibraryForHMIDemo 1.0.0.2 is in the library mangler, but won't download/install and I can't figure out how to load/link the existing file then the build errors are that the above style is not installed, so I change to a default...
