What's the best way to combine multiple bytes into a common word? I've got a 10 bit signal I'm reading, 1 complete byte plus the last 2 bits of the preceding byte, and need to capture the decimal...

Thanks Erik,

I'll add that and check it out.

I'm working on a bare bones codesys program for validating message transmission from a J1939 device (SureGrip joystick in this case) to a CR0401 controller. I've got a program running and receiving...

Just noticed today that there's a library missing from the IFM template for the CR0451. SysLibVisu.lib needs to be added if you want to use programmable visualization elements. Without this library...

OK. I got it. It was a controller index issue. CR0451 plugged into N2 of a CR0403 needs to use controller index "0" for network variables. The CR0403, in this case needing to send to a device in...

Having mostly worked with solo CR0401 and CR0403 controllers, I'm now getting into connecting CANopen devices. I've run into trouble trying to pass network variables between the two. I have a...

Does anyone know if the Snap IO line of products from Opto22 can work with codesys / IFM PLC's. They have a selection of I/O modules that offload much of the signal procession out of the PLC scan...

After a long break from Codesys I've been back at it now. Been combing over the DemoStarterSet program being that I have a the Basic Kit here to work with. I'm getting fairly comfortable...

Very nice. Thanks. Did you convert a dxf/dwg of the truck to a bitmap for your background? Are you doing all of your graphic HMI layout within CodeSys or do you use a separate design program to...

Thanks, looking forward to learning more about it.

Just received a flyer today showing a "new compact 4.3" HMI". Looks like a larger version of the CR0451 (2.8"). Is this a new display or a CR0451 with a size typo? Thanks.

Erik, thanks. In that case it looks like I'll be leaning toward the MS2 lever. I was hoping I could get the height and stroke of the EH-3000 but it's 5 VDC.

Sounds nice. Are you able to post any pictures of the finished product / layout? Do you plan on using a protective cover / overlay on it while in service?

Hello,

We have an application where we've been using a rotary pot dial to pass a signal to our CR0401's, then scale it, and pass an output to a PWM hydraulic valve. All has worked well so far. ...

I'll be interested in this too. I assume if your customer is wanting to run matlab they may be trying to run some sort of algorithm on the data coming in. If you knew what they were needing from...

Thanks. I'll file that one away for the future.

I think I may have solved my own problem but I want to confirm it here too. If all you seen on a display after loading a background bitmap is a giant red "x", does that indicate the image is larger...

Wainbee, Erik, & tthomas... thanks, it's always interesting to see what's being done in other industries. Dealing with two sets of engine data sounds pretty interesting.

Just out of curiosity, can you say anything more about your project. I'm just interested in what type of control project takes two engines. What do you make? Thanks, sorry the address issue didn't...

Even though from an old post should this demo work for a new controller? I get errors that it can't find about 5 of the libraries referenced. Would I just add the newest version of the libraries...

Thanks Erik. Hadn't thought about that. I'll be making it a habit from here out.

Erik,

The palette worked great. Our first CR0451 just arrived this week as part of the Basic kit. I'm still getting to know it. I tested some imported graphics done both with and without the...

My manual for the CR0451 (pg 72) says there should be some color palettes available to make bitmap design easier (Adobe, Corel, etc). Where can I get a IFM friendly color palette for Corel Draw /...

Is there a .stp file available for the Basic Display cover EC0402? Thanks.

Hello,

This is my first post here. Glad to be here. We're a small OEM that just started using IFM controllers and CodeSys earlier this year. We're already supporting the 6th revision of one of...
