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.

No prob. The datalog manager isn't new to SP16 so it might be worth checking to see with the version you're using. I just linked to the SP16 help file because it's the most recent SP. Good catch on the CAA File vs SysFile libraries.

As far as I'm aware it should be 2 hours. I'll have one of mine in the office tomorrow - I'll run it and see if I get the same results. Then update it to 3.5.16 and see if I get the same results.
I believe that the Datalog manager functions like a ring buffer if you set the limit as a total number of entries when logging to an sqlite file. However I'm not sure if it does that when using the csv functionality. You could instead use the sysfile library to move the log based on some condition and maybe append a datestamp to it. Then have it delete files that are older than a certain time. Kind of like a conveyor line of files that feed into a pit of deletion. The datalog manager will create...

Have you already installed the Codesys Runtime on the Pi? You can find instructions on how to do that in the help file here. If you haven't you should also read this on preparing the Pi.
So in the input configuration window you're trying to do "User Management", user management dialog windows are opening but when you click on username or password no on-screen keyboard is appearing? But if you are using a visudialog window to write a variable they are appearing? Is there a keyboard plugged in? If it is, when you have the user management window open does the keyboard type? In the visualization manager there is an option called "Activate Standard Keyboard Handling". Now it doesn't say...

Hmm would the SVN error that you see be because I don't have CODESYS Professional Developer Edition. Instead I have a license key for Eatons version of codesys. I'm trying to do this in stock Codesys because their version is several versions behind. I need a license of some sort even in Demo Mode it looks like. To connect to an SVN repository, a license key is required in the demo as well as in the full version. So... what type of license key for demo operation? How do I get a demo license key? The...

Thanks for the advice and help! Really what I have I think is 2 problems and I should have structured my first post better for that. Like you say for some reason Codesys SVN doesn't seem to have installed correctly or something is being weird around that. The second is possibly due to my lack of familiarity with projects like this. While I was able to use the command line tool like you suggest to download the project I'm unsure how to load the libraries. The device descriptions were recognized immediately...

So this thread here is relevant to you. I'm posting a relevant section below for you. I'm not sure if it is currently true or not. After talking to the lead developer he mentioned that the spread-pinch feature was never released and therefore is not working.

Ok this is a good question. Googling it brings up very little. However there are a few manuals included in the download for the CODESYS Control RTE SL (for Beckhoff CX). Looking at the First Steps for RTE PDF the backplane communication for the CX is Ethercat. You need to install some drivers and do some things, definately read the PDF. From reading just that PDF to me it looks like you use the device tree to add an internal Ethercat Master and then you add your IO devices to that. There is another...
I don't know how to do that unfortunately. However what you can do is place a Numpad on the visualization that you want by using the visualization toolbox if you have the VisuDialogs library in your project. You can then use the State Variable to toggle it between visible and invisible. You could also put it on a visualization page and have the current visualization change to that page by using the VisuElems.CurrentVisu variable. You write the name of the visualization page you want to be displayed...

For the future a codemeter dongle is super helpful when working with a Pi or Beaglebone.

Do you think that this was because of the speed of the usb-ethernet adapter, because usb 2 vs usb 3, or something else with the usb-ethernet adapter like latency etc? I look forward to hearing about your experience with the Etherberry V1.6.1. I've seen them for awhile but haven't wanted to pay for 1 just to play with it. For those watching from home here is a good rundown of the etherberry including an example project for Codesys.

Always update variables is available if you go to the device tree and look under PLC Settings under the device. For what @icampbell is talking about the variables won't be refreshed unless they're used somewhere in your code. Like an input variables POU.

That POU also has to be configured in Task Configuration and running....

Well I'd be excited to see what you come up with. I don't know how helpful the boards I listed would be in the case that you want to continue with a STM32 solution. I'm sure you know but the STM32 Discovery boards are very handy for 1 off and low production run STM32 projects. I know in the music community the STM32F407G-DISC1 is the board of choice for custom midi controllers.

I have a project I'm working on that will have 3 languages. Setting it up isn't the issue. However what I would like to do is change the color of a display element when a specific language is selected.

I would also like to change the fill color of that rectangle to indicate that english is selected. How can I read which language is selected? Is there something that I can...

Yeah you can't look at the source code of most libraries. The Oscat Libraries do allow you to look at the source code though. So that sounds totally normal. That is if you're in the library manager and double clicking on something like a DUT/interface etc in that library.

Perhaps the Beaglebone Black/Industrial/Enhanced would work for you? You could also use a Raspberry Pi Compute module or a Raspberry Pi. Hilscher uses a Raspberry Pi CPU on their own board for the NetPi and not a compute module I believe. Maybe not as cost effective as using a STM32 depending on the scale you would want to produce at. I would have recommended Sequent Microsystem's hats but they no longer have any Codesys support though perhaps you could roll your own drivers or pay them.

Hmmm. Would "Behaviour for outputs while in stop - Execute Program" in the PLC settings tab be helpful? Maybe combined with the CAA Device Diagnosis library? Or maybe with this Codesys Forge Library, Debug Logger. This post might also be helpful to you, in adding extra logging to the normal log. If the normal log file isn't overwritten/wiped when that executed program (as above) is started you could have it copy the log file somewhere. Depending on what you want you might be satisfied with setting...

If the normal log file isn't overwritten/wiped when that executed program (as above) is started you could have it copy the log file somewhere.

As far as I can see only Codesys 2.3 has official windows 7 support.
Alas for anyone looking at Sequent Microsystems products they no longer list or provide Codesys support for any of their products. Talk Topic about project #mega-io
Check out the Datalog manager or the Alarm Manager Yes both of these will write to the directory where the PLC software is running from. If that is the internal flash memory on the device it could eventually wear out. That doesn't sound like it should be an issue for what you're talking about though. There is an Oscat Network library you can take a look at. I don't think any of these support saving logs to a networked location. But there are a few ways you can get that data transfered once logged....

Here is how that should look for initializing it with those strings arrIndicatorColor: ARRAY[1..5] OF STRING := ['Red', 'Yellow', 'Green', 'Blue', 'White']; The difference between yours and mine is you used " which indicates a wString and ' which indicates a String. Sorry at first I specified that address 1 was Red and address 2 was Yellow but that didn't work past Red. In case you're wondering if you want to initialize only part of the array it would look like this. arrIndicatorColor: ARRAY[1..5]...

Edit, sorry testing
Yes, the number at the start indicates the address in the array that is being filled. Also there is a difference between ' and " where ' is for a string and " is for a wstring. arrIndicatorColor : ARRAY[1..5] OF STRING:= [1('Red'), 2('Yellow'), 3('Green'), 4('Blue'), 5('White')];
You are correct, they don't have a specific forum for the NXHX-90. Unfortunately I don't have a Hilscher netx device here to try things out with. Looking in the help file I see that there is a variant device driver for Hilscher CIFX/Netx devices. So that would be a good point to check. Other than that I don't have any good advice for you other than to check this troubleshooting page. I apologize for that.
