    Hi @eschwellinger, I have been trying out v1.0 of the new ladder and have a few questions. I have warnings Expression or part of it has no effect I can't get rid of them, what do they exactly mean? Using the ST_Block, is there a way when online to open the ST_Block and view the running code? Thanks!

    Thanks for the update, Since you can't double click is there another way to enter the FB when online and see the running code of that instance? When can we expect to see v1.0?

    Hi It looks like in the new ladder there is no way to remove unused FB call parameters or update the function block? It's quite often where you have a function block with multiple uses and not all the parameters are required. Need the ability to leave an input/output blank without getting an compile error Expression expected instead of '' Also double clicking on the FB no longer opens the underlying FB code and view what it was doing online. Dragging and dropping a variable does not work, only using...

    Hi It looks like in the new ladder there is no way to remove unused FB call parameters. It's quite often where you have a function block with multiple uses and not all the parameters are required. Also double clicking on the FB no longer opens the underlying FB code. Dragging and dropping a variable does not work, only using the selection works. Will these be available in the V1.0 release or just best to stick to the old ladder until it's available? Thanks

    Hi, Is there a process to restore Persistence Manager files? I have backups of persistence variables used in a machine that is currently operating and tuned and all set points adjusted. There are about 500 persistence variables, they are building another identical machine. I would like to use Persistence Manager files from the first machine in the second also. I have tried copying the files and replacing them on the new RPI but then the Persistence Manager gets errors and then they are all reset...

    Hi There, When using the new ladder editor there is no option for function blocks to Remove uncalled FB call parameters. I also see no update function block. When you double click the function block it no longer opens the function block. I also now get warnings if I insert FB call without a contact in front. Warning is: (Impl)): C0373: Expression or part of it has no effect I take it the new editor must work differently? The only reason for using new ladder editor is the ST execute/block editing...

    I take it this is not possible in CodeSys currently since everything has to be declared as static, I have been researching and reading into OOP and some of the limitations with CodeSys, I see there is the _NEW for dynamic memory, but does not look like a robust solution. Am I best just going back to the traditional method of mapping data?

    Hi there, I'm having trouble working out how to pass the EIP devices FB instances into my function block since each EIP device has a different name and IEC Object type. I have just tested this and can access all the parameters of the device for example. _3G3AX_MX2_EIP_A4055_v1_4_FB.RunFwd _3G3AX_MX2_EIP_A4055_v1_4_FB.RunRev Now I can create an instance: Drive : _3G3AX_MX2_EIP_A4055_v1_4_FB; I can now use that drive instance: Drive.RunFwd Drive.RunRev The Problem I have is codesys creates an FB per...
