Omac PackML on ctrlx Core

[Tamer]

Hello,

Does ctrlX core support the PackML package provided by Codesys? If yes, can we install the package from Codesys directly on the PLC app?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, it is possible to install this package directly at PLC engineering via Package Manager (found in Menue Tools).

After this you can add the OMAC_PackML library

From the functionality itself I haven't test it, so I can't say anything...

Regards

With some adaptions (set all libraries to newest version, update the device to ctrlX CORE, change the task priority from 1 to a value between 20 and 39) the example in the package will run on the ctrlX CORE.

You will find the example in the folder C:\users\<your username>\CODESYS Examples after installation of the package.

The example application PackMLAxisControl requires the CODESYS Softmotion package.

Thank you for your reply.

We tried importing the package directly downloaded from codesys, however, it stalls with "pending installation", any ideas why could that be?

Thanks,

Do you have administration rights on your PC? The package installer uses the Windows mechanism which requires adminstration rights.
Did you close PLC Engineering after starting the package installation? For some CODESYS packages the installer starts not before you have closed the application.

Thank you PLC2030, that worked.
