Hello,   We are using SFK4P and we'd like authorized personel to use it from station PLC's HMI.   Issue is, as far as we see, kiosk mode only works for one website. We cannot add second kiosk or second webstation app to kiosk so they can switch between WebIQ and SFK dashboards. So, we thought we could use chromium for SFK dashboard. Problem is, we cannot scroll on SFK page. It just doesn't work. We cannot see live values or if you are logged out, cannot log in because button is on bottom left and we cannot see it.  Do you have a solution for that? Changing website address of kiosk's webstation settings is not user friendly so customer doesn't want to do it. We are open to suggestions.   Thank you for your support.   If forum goes read only and if messaging works, you can contact me via DM too. It's really appreciated. ... View more

Hello,   We have X3 PLC with S20-EC-BK and Smart Function Kit for Pressing, with Ethercat communication. I want to implement an error detection on bus, and I'm trying to use CXA_S20 library for it. Issue is, when I unplug S20's connection to PLC, its state changes to error "0x0001B: Sync Manager Watchdog" and stays that way even if I plug the cable back, until we reset the system. Do you have any ideas how to detect or reset that?  Also, my current program is like below, using the library's example. If there is any real life implementation you can share, it'd be appreciated. Thank you very much.   PROGRAM PRG_IOBusControl VAR_INPUT bExecuteStart : BOOL; END_VAR VAR fbIH_S20ComConfiguration : IH_S20ComConfiguration; // Function block instance bEnableComConfig : BOOL := TRUE; // Function block processing enabled( TRUE – once, edge-controlled ) bInOperationComConfig : BOOL; // TRUE: Function Block is working on its actual task bErrorComConfig : BOOL; // TRUE: Indicates an error ErrorIDComConfig : ERROR_CODE; // Class of error ErrorIdentComConfig : ERROR_STRUCT; // Detailed information about error enBusType : IH_S20_BUSTYPE; // Bus type selection stBusConfig : IH_S20_BUS_CONFIG; // Bus configuration parameters pS20BusHandle : POINTER TO IH_S20_BUS_IDENTIFIER; // Bus handle of S20IO configuration strBusMaster : STRING(100) := 'ethercatmaster'; // EtherCAT Busmaster name fbIH_S20ModuleDiagnosticsType02 : IH_S20ModuleDiagnosticsType02; // Fb Instance bExecute : BOOL; // TRUE: Function is enabled bDone : BOOL; // TRUE: Function Block has completed its task bActive : BOOL; // TRUE: Function Block is working on its actual task bError : BOOL; // TRUE: Indicates an error ErrorID : ERROR_CODE; // Class of error ErrorIdent : ERROR_STRUCT; // Detailed information about error uiSlot : UINT := 1; // Module slot address.

Hello, I've Node RED RED-V-0206.5+3.1.11 app installed on my Ctrlx X3 PLC. I want to save a file via FTP. Best solution I could find is using Node Red. Issue is, I need to install ftp node. When I try it from manage palette menu, it gives an error. It also gives error when I try to update current nodes. You can see the error in attachment. The node I'm trying to install is node-red-contrib-ftp, I tried couple others but still same result. I found info about node-packager, but I think it only works if I have linux and unfortunately, currently it's not an option.  So I wanted to ask if I'm doing something wrong, is there a solution? Thank you very much for your support. P.S. : I'm also open to other suggestions for appending values to existing csv files and creating new csv files, from PLC, to an external PC's drive. That's my main goal, which led to using Node Red. Thank you.   ... View more
