Hello, I'm using node-red to control plcnext I/Os. Currently, I/O configuration is done by PLCnext Engineer and it works. However I would like to configure via node-red instead of PLCnext Engineer. I think Busconductor is good option for this purpose but it is library(*.so) . According to the following…

I am failing to build following project https://github.com/PLCnext/BusConductor I clone this repository and executed plcncli generate code in projects root directory and got following error chandola:BusConductor$ plcncli generate code Generating all files with the 'code' generator for…

I am following the tutorial for programming with c++ on eclipse. While setting up a project, you are supposed to select the AXCF2152 as a target for the program. However, when I do this, there Is nothing on the available targets list. Are there other steps I need to take?

I have noticed a issue with OPC UA variables running PLCNext Engineer 2020.LTS / FW 2020.LTS: We have 6 variables (BOOL) for enabling functions that are set via a HMI (Visu+). Those are only written via the HMI as toggle function. But some how those variables are set from TRUE to FALSE without user input in the control…

I tried to update the firmware on a AXC F 2152 ,but i can't find it on the web site. On the download page when clicking on firmware the page is empty...

Hello, We are using the precision time protocol (ptp) for keeping the clocks synchronized across the LAN network, however, as far as I can tell this is not currently installed on the axl2152. Does it exist any future plans to include this in the official release "image" / firmware, or should be expect that we need to b…

Hello Sir, We need some system variables of AXC F 2152. for example: PLCMODE_RUN, PLCMODE_ON, PLCMODE_STOP... We have customers who need to do status testing, none of which. How can we solve this problem? Thanks!

Hello PLCnext team, I have a question about SD card for PLCnext controller. I read a few articles regarding SD card in this forum I found that only two SD cards(2GB and 8GB) from PhoenixContact are available for now. In addition, SD card must be formatted in a proprietary way. So, commercial SD card can not be used for…

Hi experts. I have problem relatively between PC WORX and Modbus device. I have RTU Modbus device ( RS485). I used the ETHERNET TCP/IP converter ( Just change physical port) and create a vitrual COM PORT from it. I used MODBUSPOLL tool to read modbus RTU and it work normally. So, Can PC WORX read modbus RTU through abo…

I was wondering if it would be possible to integrate a network scanner for the topography of the network in to Engineer. The likes as we have it in PCWorx. Also would it be an idea to include the FL Switches in to Engineer to better include those in projects. There is the option to import the GSDML's for the switches b…

Hi, I'm just getting started with PLCnext C++ and was wondering if you had a simple "blink" program for which I can just blink one of my outputs on one of the Digital Output modules for my AXCF 2152. I couldn't find anything related to this on the blog and everything there seemed esoteric and perhaps for advanced Linux…

Hi, I have a new computer and installed visual studio 2017 and the Tools for Visual Studio for PLCnext Technology C# programming. I can create a function block and import it to plcnext engineer and it works fine in project and on plc. The problem I have is when I try to debug it the eClr does not appear in connection t…

Hello guys, We use the AXC F 2152 in combination with a 3G/4G router. We use portforwarding to reach the HMI, but with the AXC F 2152 we've problems to reach the HMI through portforwarding. The forwarding connects to port 443 of the PLC. I get to see the HMI background, but there are problems to load the variables. I s…
