Hello,
I am trying to model Ethernet switches (Moxa EDS-508), and remote I/O (Wago Coupler 750-352) with an OOP approach thanks to Codesys. I am a beginner in Automation in general. Firstly, I succeed to fill these objects with different information through Modbus/TCP Slaves. Which are present in the Codesys Device Tree.
But I wanted to have more flexibility with the modeling. So I imported both libraries OSCAT BASIC v3.3.3 and OSCAT NETWORK v1.2 in Codesys v3.5 SP9. By the way thanks for these great tools.

My client is the target PLC a Raspberry-Pi, and it sends a Modbus TCP/IP request to the server, a Moxa switch. The switch only works with FC4 and UDP doesn't seem to work. (Error of timeout,16#FF00, is returned).
I choose to make an ST FB based on MB_CLIENT, from Oscat Network. I will use it to read registers and fill the objects. Moreover, I decided to make different FB with different size of data output.
Read_Channel_FB_0 reads a unique Modbus TCP/IP register and release a word output (data_out). It possesses two methods: Read_Parameters_Affec() and Data_Builder().
Read_Channel_FB_1 reads a Modbus TCP/IP register and release an array of two words output (data_out). It possesses two methods: Data_Builder() and Read_Parameters_Affec() (Same method as Read_Channel_FB_0).
A Moxa is modelled by a FB, and composed with two structures: REFERENCE TO Minor_Information, REFERENCE TO Primary_Information. The information represent data more or less important from the Moxa, so the request Modbus TCP/IP are not at the same speed rate between information. Plus Moxa_FB gets a FB_Init to initialize its parameters from a GVL.
Now we build the object Moxa in a program thanks to IP_CONTROL2, from Oscat Network:
When I call the different Read_Channel_FB in a program, there is no error code. And the Moxa_FB is filled correctly.
I wanted to add the Read_Channel_FB inside a new FB: Moxa_new_FB. There are two methods Primary_meth() and Minor_meth().
Plus I removed the use of a GVL for a FB_Init in this FB.
Here is the call in a program:
But the affection didn’t occur. And I don’t have any errors.
I need help, can someone explain me why the object doesn't fill correctly??
