    You have these problems outside of Codesys? How is it connected, through micro HDMI, SPI, or I2C? Unfortunately I've always used the HDMI connectors when I've had to connect to a screen. If its SPI or I2C you'll have to look at what can be done there possibly with the baud rate and how to control screen brightness. Sounds like it might be defaulting to 100% brightness and you would know better than me if you can control it from your linux install. You'll have to look to your OS and the possibly any...

    Your best bet if you no one can help you here is to use the 'My Question' button at the top of the store or to pay for a support ticket. Sorry, I can't help more.

    That is the solution I have heard other people talk about, I'm not sure the exact way they did it though.

  • Morberis Morberis modified a comment on discussion Engineering πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

    I'm pretty sure it is an offset issue but hey maybe not. I am definately not an expert, I just read things and sometimes get to implement them. Below is a good qoute on why it might be like this. Basically Codesys is doing it in a way that is compliant with the protocol where some other systems might not. Also sometimes the info in a manual already includes an offset. So to test with new devices I always set up registers above and below what I think it should be. According to the MODBUS protocol,...

    The what I can find on SysWindow 3.10.19.1Window handling (SysWindow) The SysWindow component provides access to the window handling of the graphical environment. The target visualization typically runs in a window. There is more info here on page 450. It reads like it handles the target visualization window by using the window manager in the OS. Maybe either something is not functioning correctly in the linux environment or there is something different in your linux distro so that Codesys is no...

    Can you see the memory usage on this device? If this wasn't a PLC I would guess a memory leak.

  • Morberis Morberis posted a comment on discussion Runtime πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

    Hmm I don't have an answer for the first, sorry. Maybe the My Question button on your relevant Codesys store would get you some help on that. Or a support ticket. For the second you can use from the CAA File Library GetSize and do the math. I don't know if that will work on a folder so you can get the size of everything within but if it does then you're golden.

    Setup some more registers above and below the current registers. Maybe shifting everything up a few so that they still start at 1000, 2000, etc but you're only reading and writing 1003-1006 etc but you have on the slave registers 1000-1008 setup. Then try to write to all of them to make them 1. Check on the RPi which registers have been written to. My first guess is that something with offset registers despite being configured the same.

    Yes this is possible. I'm looking at the Visualization Manager in the User Management Tab. At the bottom is an option for remote user management and I can select one of the other devices that has user management configured. Here is the link to the relevant Codesys Help page for that. I'm not sure what you would have to do if the devices were from multiple projects. If they are both still Codesys it seems that setting up a data source manager and data source to 1 primary device might do it... I did...

    Yes this is possible. Now I only did this with 1 PLC and then another PLC that I setup so that it could control the first PLC including copies of its visualizations so you might need to do some testing to verify how well it works with more than 2 systems. The second PLC I setup a Data Source Manager to read tags from the first PLC. I'm looking now though and I don't see anything specific to the user management. Just the tags I used in the visualizations. I didn't really investigate it since it worked...

However, the third-party discontinued the product and CODESYS for Unipi controllers is no longer available. For Unipi 1.1 and Unipi Axon it is still possible, but very difficult to use CODESYS.

  • Morberis Morberis posted a comment on discussion Engineering πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

    Totally doable. Add the VisuUserMgmt libraries to your project and you'll find a new tab in your Visualization Manager called 'User Management'. After you have the users setup you also have a new item in the visualization elements properties tab called 'Access Rights'. It is there that you specify whether that element is interactable, greyed out, or invisible to each user type.

    One thing that can really help is the shortcuts. What can really help is having a dedicated macro-pad that executes those shortcuts at the press of a key and maybe has an appropriate image. You can take an old or cheap usb numpad and convert it into a macropad as well. You might want to take a look at some of the settings for the software itself. Like do you want the input assistant window to open all the time, do you want new networks to come pre-populated with an empty coil and contact etc. Those...

    But my first idea how you could do this is to put everything in a frame and move the frame with buttons. Or you could use the scroll bar element to write to a variable and use that to move the frame.

    Ah. First add the ac_datalog library, then hit alt+2 to bring up the module window. After that add the datalog manager, datalog channel, then datalog storage. You pick which application it is being deployed to in the datalog manager under the deployment window.

  • Morberis Morberis posted a comment on discussion Engineering

    You can set in the DatalogStorage_CSV module what symbol(,;: etc) indicates the start of a new column. When you import the CSV file into excel it asks what symbol indicates a column seperation. So if you pick that same symbol in both steps you'll get your data in multiple columns for easy graphing etc.

    Nah the path is definately correct. At least it's correct when the usb drive is inserted. For now I'm forgoing detection of a USB drive. If the copy operation fails or gets stuck that's all the feedback I need and it works consistently.

    Sorry I can't believe that I didn't post that info. I've seen 2 errors 5109 - wrong parameter 5103 - invalid handle Your new code is using command prompt it seems? After talking with tech support I might not have equivalent commands available to me but they're going to get back to me on that. I'm using an Eaton XV303 and they do have a Library called EA_Service which looks like it might have some things that would work. For instance a Function called 'Service_GetUsbState' but it doesn't actually...

    The easiest way that I know of to log data to a csv file is to make use of the datalog manager. You can also write something in visual designer to convert the sqlite file to csv but... that's more of a pain.

    Sorry I don't have a good answer for you. Have you checked to make sure you have the newest libraries and have you updated the modbus master device in the device tree to be the newest version? Newest in this case is newest available to your 3.5.15.0 version.

    Sequent Microsystems definately is a standout for price/performance. They are moving to what looks like a v2 of each card. I'm not sure if the current packages will support those or if the only change is pcb layout and pluggable connectors. But they also have a few newer cards that don't have support for Codesys. The Mosfet card and the 64 channel RTD card. But even on the original industrial IO card not all of the features were supported in Codesys. The 2 stand out features missing are the RS485/Can...

    Hmmm. I'm testing it on an embedded windows PLC so I changed /media to /UsbStorage and changed it so that DirEntry.sEntry checks for 'System Volume Information' and it correctly detects whether there is a USB drive or not. However it seems to get stuck sometimes with DirOpen and doesn't reset if it hits an error.

However if at any point you try to detect a USB drive and there is no USB drive it seems to get stuck.

    To do that would you need to be using either a cape or power supply that has UPS functionality and can has an output indicating that power has been cut?

    I've found network variables to not be great for elements that you interact with. However what has worked great is setting up a data source manager on the remote plc and adding the source PLC applciation as a datasource under the manager. However unfortunately unless your PLC supports it you can not load a symbol configuration and I must have the source PLC either live and connected or simulated to load a list of variables. If you can't use Codesys HMI for some reason. Codesys HMI works similarly...

    Sometimes I've had it where my development system won't see a PLC. In cases like that I need to add a favorite device and I need to specify its IP address. Would a web visualization with the browser in kiosk mode work for you? That's definitely the cheapest way. What Eschwellinger says might be easier for you.

    Unfortunately I don't think you'll be able to use a version of Rasbian that supports and works correctly with USB boot on the Pi 4 until the new Codesys update is out.

    I am not familiar with any device drivers for addressable LED's. Unfortunately because of that my answers won't give you a straight forward solution. The first answer I have is You could make your own. Here are the instructions. The second answer is What you could do is use something like the Pixelblaze with it's network functionality. You could also use the various inputs on the sensor board, or mimic the communication that sensor board provides. There are other solutions out there. Some LED controllers...

    Someone else seems to have had the same message but I'm not sure if their issue had anything to do with that. It looks like it can't access a file nvmem, nonvolatile flash memory. It looks like it might be for a device at24-0. Googling that it is a driver at24.c for an Atmel24c Eeprom which is also capable of handling most i2c eeproms. Here's some links that might be helpful for you. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29932003/reading-and-writing-eeprom-via-i2c-with-linux https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/706509/...

    This is just some ethercat stuff that I've read which explains why the Etherberry can not be an Ethercat master. But supposedly an Ethercat Master doesn't need any special hardware but an Ethercat Slave needs an Ethercat ASIC which is why if you want to make a Raspberry Pi and Ethercat slave you need something like the Etherberry Dual. Source Under implementation Costs Doing some light reading it seems that the Etherberry 1.1 and 1.6 both use a chip with an integrated Ethercat Slave ASIC. The LAN9252....

    As an Ethercat slave or a master? It would seem that an Ethercat Master needs no special hardware but the slave requires an Ethercat ASIC Source Under implementation Costs That's not to say that you won't have any hick ups as @patrickrjbrown with his ethercat project demonstrates. Also Ethercat and Ethernet traffic can't be on the same physical network, different wire and different ports. Edit: Do you have realtime or hard realtime requirements?
