Good day, I’m writing this message out of frustration regarding the current way project files are saved as encrypted XML and single-file format in CODESYS. I find this approach to be quite tedious for several reasons: Limited Access to Structured Text: Not being able to access Structured Text (ST) externally makes it impossible to work with alternative editors like VSCode. Tools like VSCode are incredibly responsive and feature advanced systems such as GitHub Copilot, which would be a real game-changer...

I have a device CAADiagDeviceDefault: IoConfig_Globals.Axis_A In our library, we perform introspection of the Etc_SlaveDiag. In that case, we have connectors, and by searching for them by address, I can find them in the IO mapping using the offset and size provided by EtherCAT. However, a Lenze i700 drive, instead of placing the IO mapping in the Etc_SlaveDiag device, places it in a sub-device CAADiagDeviceDefault. So, when I perform introspection, I cannot find the IO correspondences. Yet, in the...

I have found a very interesting solution using: IoConfigTaskMap IoConfigConnectorMap IoConfigChannelMap The first is the list of IO tasks. The second is the connector for each IO module in the IOMap. The third is the individual input or output on the IOMap. One of the properties of the connector is another pointer to a connector, which corresponds with the connector of the EtherCAT slave. Through this information, it is possible to understand to which EtherCAT slave an IO connectormap corresponds....

Thank you for the response! It's a path I had already considered, however, while it has always worked for me on inputs, it doesn't on outputs, because if I enable the option to update all IOs at every scan, the IO tasks overwrite each other. However, I have found something very interesting which I am posting below.

Using SDO, I can read the EtherCAT mappings and offsets from various registers like 0x1c12, 0x1c13, etc. When I obtain registers mapped in the PDOs and various offsets, I could technically access directly to the statusword, controlword, etc., if they are mapped. I have noticed that on IoDrvEthercatLib.ETCSlave_Diag I can find pointers to the input and output buffers. However, although the input buffer can be easily read by referring to what has been obtained from the SDOs, it is not possible to write...

This library would be very useful for IPC communications. Using a UDP socket on localhost is unpredictable, as with slightly loaded machines it does not even guarantee packet delivery locally. Using TCP creates a lot of overhead. Message named pipes would be an excellent solution for Windows RTE. On Linux, since the release of the extension package, there is no issue, as it is sufficient to develop a component. However, although now 90% of our clients understand that Linux runtimes are better in...

We are experiencing serious jitter issues on an ARM64 imx8. Until now, on rpi and beaglebone derivatives, and on Intel, we never encountered jitter issues unless they were already present on the device. In this case, as can be seen from the attached graph, we have excellent maximum latency. The cyclictest on the isolated core dedicated to IEC CODESYS tasks shows a latency of 37µs, with an average of 14µs. Usually, on all other devices, with an RT kernel, with the appropriate parameters to avoid frequency...

Here, a test parser I implemented. It reads a CODESYS export (NOT PlcOpen, standard exports) file and saves it in a folder structure that replicates the project tree. It saves all DUTs and ST files in plain text. All the XML files will allow reconstructing the export for reimporting it into CODESYS in future tests. The objective is to achieve a system that, when integrated into CODESYS, enables generating a simpler Git structure for managing merges while working in a team. It could serve as a starting...

I tested the CODESYS Git integration to evaluate the purchase of the license. I couldn't find a solution for ssh in RSA, but as a valid alternative, I used the Bitbucket application keys, which allowed me to avoid using credentials. However, I gave up because the projects are not exported in plain text, which is useful for at least the ST part, 99.9% of our projects today. I can't rely solely on the tools provided in the development environment. Many times, when working in a team, it's necessary...

Due to the impossibility of accessing the projects (which we have already fully developed in ST) in text-only mode due to the ".project" file storage system, it is impossible to work on the projects with external tools such as VSCode, which now offer excellent support for developer tools based on AI such as Github Copilot.

It's probably not possible due project storage system! I don't understand project storage system! With medium projects, 60.000 - 300.000 ST lines and 20-30 Devices in different config, everything became very very slow to manage! Also git integration is unusable!

In 5 out of 6 instances of our axis it works, in one looking at the set parameters in the watch everything seems ok, positive limit at 1760 and negative limit at -415.5. However when we reach -375.5 we fall into negative limit error. The very strange thing is that all the other...

I tested but it's not working. Also hot enable/disable a slave is not possible. Disable a slave in editor move all adderessing space of next device back so it's not possible hot reenable it.

Is it possible keep multiple master configured in different mode (multiple slave configurations) and turn on only one at application boot? I'm developing a new application, on POU side OOP and polymorphism let me create a runtime configurable modular software, but on device side is hard to find a solution. Mapping on a structure field objects of a slave and use references in software is very useful, but a good solution should be dispose 20-30 master configuration in different hardware to select right...

Raspberry PI4, debian 64bit, Kernel RT stock from debian repo. Runtime SL ARM64. A little tuning in kernel parameters and CPU pinning. Jitter <= 52µs with ethercat on native adapter. I think that on ARM remain a big margin of improvement, 6-7µs should be possible.

It's only an Example! You can extract the code you need. Included parts are only to integrate shm in our framework. Look at private methods. You can take that methods and modify a little bit.

Shared memory is a right way, but... In Windows RTE you can use QSharedMemory, you must run application as administrator and use only GLOBAL shared memory. Shared memory should instantiated by OS application and not from CODESYS due visibility problems. In Windows not RTE you can use local memory, you can run app as same user of runtime. Shared memory should instantiated by OS application and not from CODESYS due visibility problems. In Linux QSharedMemory has some problem with codesys, you can run...

We made many prjects not using softmotion. Main work is build an altrnative library. We made it in full OOP paradigm (polimorphic objects make software very recyclable), SoftMotion and PLCOpen are made for auromation thinking people not for true software developers. Modern Runtimes like codesys have a deterministic synced cyclic. This is key feature to make everiting possible. A good knowledge of Mathematical Analisys, linear algebra, OOP paradigm is sufficient. Compliment for your work.

It would appear that PlcHadle.dll can only be used by having the SDK. However, it would be very interesting to be able to use it even without it, as it would open the way to unthinkable levels of integration. Today I go around it with shared memory. In this way we interface a big framework that we developed in Qt through a gateway in shm, however being able to use the PlcHandle would simplify our life a lot.

Ok! I made many tests! I can also install launching .msi file. Tests in 32bit gone all in a wrong way. Codesys installs, but not start. Tests in 64bit are working. Codesys is working, linux gateway is viewed, but remains big problems in cryptographic system. I see a massive usage of ncrypt.dll, and bcrypt.dll. Some function in wine ncrypt.dll is missing so XML, packages and libraries signature validation not working at all! I also try to copy ncrypt.dll from a native Windows10, but after that a new...

In following attachment you can see residual problems. Signatures validation, not working and XML Ethercat are opened in wrong mode! One of problems is around crypt32 and msasn1! I'm searching to solve deps.

Once installed and launched it is very fluid and fast, much more responsive than on any Windows 10 Virtual machine. However some native library is required, otherwise some things don't work. For example crypt32, msacm32, crypt32, msasn and the various msxlm, due is not able to recognize the digital signatures...
