Hi,
Could you please tell,
1) which 750-400 function block are you referring to?
2) how you are downloading your application no to the device?

The 750-400 function blocks which were available before is not used any more. You can now read a digital input with a IX, function block with parameter in the form "slot.channel"(without quotes). And from the error message it looks like a Wago API related error, which is not supposed to be visible while downloading your 4diac application to the device, following the procedure in the help files.

Regards
Milan

Hi,

Please download 4diac-IDE version 1.8.x from http://www.eclipse.org/4diac/en_dow.php and use the IX blocks available in type library forlder "io". An example of how to use this IX blocks can be found in 4DIAC Documentation/FORTE/4DIAC on other Platforms/Building FORTE for Raspberry- SPS. Also please make sure that you always kill codesys instance running before downloading the application.

Hi,

Just to make sure no error occur in future, please download the FORTE source as described here, http://git.eclipse.org/c/4diac/org.eclipse.4diac.forte.git, and follows the help file for buiding executable for Wago as given in web page. The source( 1.8.x ) updated latest is compatible with 4diac IDE 1.8.x and supports IX, QX blocks. Now enjoy Wink

Cheers
Milan

Hi,

1) Please follow the procedure explained in http://www.eclipse.org/4diac/en_help.php, Tutorials/4DIAC Framework/X+3 Tutorial for learning how to create an application. Use the same method here for creating an application with wago IX,QX blocks
2) For your reference I have created a sample application with Wago PFC IX, QX blocks. Here my 750-400 digital input card is in slot 0 and 750-530 digital output card is in slot 1. The inputs from channel 0.0 and 0.1 are driving the output channels 1.4 and 1.2. See attachment WagoKBus SampleApp.png

3) Before deploying the application, make sure that the codesys instance is killed and then start forte, from where you created your executable. I have created a screen shot of my putty client doing the same. See attachment putty.png

4) Download and test the application

Note: The sample application is created with my hardware setup. This may change based on your set up.

Hi,

I just want to repeat and emphasize Milan's comment: Please don'T use the 750-400 function block. This is old code that will not be available in future releases. Please use the IX FB for digital inputs and QX block for digital outputs.

BR,
Alois

What FORTE version have you used. IX/QX requires the latest FORTE 1.8.0. https://sourceforge.net/projects/fordiac/files/FORTE/FORTE%201.8/

i have used the latest Forte version to generate forte executable and it is working with IX function block now. I would like to ask one more thing. can i want to use PiFace of Raspberry Pi as the output instead of 750-530 and the function block diagram for this arrangement remain similar to what you sent?

I great that it is working for you.

You can use the IX and QX blocks for digital IOs on all of our supported platforms. The only thing that changes is the value for the PARAMS input.

Unfortunately is PiFace currently not supported. However we are working on it and hopfully have it soon.
