Defect Description
BZ-10458 PLCClosed"Programmable Logic Controller" A Programmable Logic Controller, PLC, or Programmable Controller is a digital computer used for automation of industrial processes, such as control of machinery on factory assembly lines. Used to synchronize the flow of inputs from (physical) sensors and events with the flow of outputs to actuators and events Variable Creation Wizard don't show the mapping.
BZ-10451 Cannot start application with direct EthernetClosedEthernet is a large, diverse family of frame-based computer networking technologies that operate at many speeds for local area networks (LANs) connection.
BZ-10419 Drag 'n' drop variable from UDFBClosed"User Defined Function Block" UDFB can be used as a sub-function block in another program of the application. It is described using FBD, LD, ST or IL language. Input / output parameters of a UDFB (as well as private variables) are declared in the variable editor as local variables of the UDFB instance to watch window does not display the value.
BZ-10275 PxMM controller bus time not synchronized with DC master time.
BZ-9928 ESI file list is not updated when good and bad ESI files are added at the same time.
BZ-9835 Non-ASCII characters in projects not handled properly in the KAS IDEClosed"Integrated development environment" An integrated development environment is a type of computer software that assists computer programmers in developing software. IDEs normally consist of a source code editor, a compiler and/or interpreter, build-automation tools, and a debugger.
BZ-9834 Import/export from/to non-ascii file names does not work correctly.
BZ-9496 AKD-N firmware download fails if 4x drives are selected.
BZ-9359 PDO objects not defined in the object dictionary (or 24bit size) will not work properly with MLSmpXxxxx(...) functions.
BZ-8659 PLCopenClosedA vendor -and product- independent worldwide association active in Industrial Control and aiming at standardizing PLC file formats based on XML move blending with jerkClosedIn physics, jerk is the rate of change of acceleration; more precisely, the derivative of acceleration with respect to time. If the blending move is commanded with an unreachable velocity, the move may abruptly decelerate to the final position within one sample, exceeding the specified deceleration rate.
BZ-8654 E21 when KAS IDE running O-Scope is disconnected.
BZ-8645 Adding ESI File After Scanning Results in No Selected PDOs.
BZ-8644 PLCopen S-Curve move may not reach target with small JerkClosedIn physics, jerk is the rate of change of acceleration; more precisely, the derivative of acceleration with respect to time.
BZ-8643 EtherCATClosedEtherCAT is an open, high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus system. The development goal of EtherCAT was to apply Ethernet to automation applications which require short data update times (also called cycle times) with low communication jitter (for synchronization purposes) and low hardware costs scan fails after a AKD drive firmware download failure with a wrong EtherCAT topology.
BZ-8636 Recovered projects don’t recover imported libraries (.kal files).
BZ-8608 KAS IDE views do not scale if Windows text scaling is > 100%.
BZ-8605 MLInitTrig does not configure the AKD Capture engine correctly for a negative edge trigger.
BZ-8588 ECAT network restore fails to recover from drive FW download failure.
BZ-8508 PDOs need padding to meet byte boundary requirement. The IDE PDO Editor does not automatically pad PDOs on non-byte boundaries. The problem can be avoided by manually adding dummy objects to pad the PDO size to line-up on byte boundaries. For more details, see the article on KDN.
BZ-8504 KL3314 Operation. Temperature values are not calibrated properly to the thermocouple. To work-around the problem, use ECATWriteData to setup the control word (16xE0) and send value (16x2006) to Register R32 and a second ECATWriteData to write zero (0) to the control word to set up the continual output of the temperature.
BZ-8482 ModbusClosedModBus is a serial communications protocol and is now the most commonly available means of connecting industrial electronic devices. ModBus is often used to connect a supervisory computer with a remote terminal unit in supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. Versions of the ModBus protocol exist for serial port and Ethernet (it is widely used with TCP/IP over Ethernet) renumber address does not work with String variables. In the FieldbusClosedA Fieldbus is an industrial network system for real-time distributed control (e.g. CAN or Profibus). It is a way of connecting instruments in a plant design Editor Modbus configurator, if you right click input registers and choose the renumber address option, it will make the addresses overlap.
BZ-8212 Modified cam file is not downloaded when forcing an Online Change.
BZ-8138 WebBrowser component not working for TxB panels.
BZ-8132 K-Bus slices analog inputs Offset parameter does not work.
BZ-7985 IDE disconnects from the controller after several days.
BZ-7759 Breakpoint with For(…) loop, increases VM load significantly.
BZ-7728 IDE animation with non-matching project versions.
BZ-6240 IDE always reports the project has been modified.
