I simply commented out the line in my program, wehre I explicitly set the value oft he variable and I could change it from the driver even in run mode. I did also set a breakpoint in the initialization code I had and I had the PLC stop on every cycle. So @Patrick Boisclair please double check you are not simply overwriting the values again like I was.

The driver is actually doing what it should and seems to be doing it correctly. I tried my test again, but having stopped the PLC programm. I did that cause I wanted to prevent the value being overwritten by any form of PLC program. And as soon as I stopped the program execution, I could see the watch expressions I had setup change their value as expected. In my case I setup a predefined set of variables to pre-defined values in order to run some manually executed tests against the device. I think this initialization is run for every CPU cycle and hereby overwriting the changes the driver is sending.

I can confirm that the value doesn’t change in the PLC. I used wireshark to inspect the communication between the driver and the PLC and the response to my write request is: Frame 41: 96 bytes on wire (768 bits), 96 bytes captured (768 bits) on interface \Device\NPF_{7F615F1B-E091-421F-850E-2BC9EEC3A622}, id 0 Ethernet II, Src: Beckhoff_13:6a:a0 (00:01:05:13:6a:a0), Dst: GopodGro_02:d2:c7 (48:65:ee:12:d2:c7) Internet Protocol Version 4, Src: 192.168.23.20, Dst: 192.168.23.200 Transmission Control Protocol, Src Port: 48898, Dst Port: 50301, Seq: 51, Ack: 121, Len: 42 AMS AMS Target Net Id: 192.168.23.200.1.1 AMS Target port: 65534 AMS Sender Net Id: 192.168.23.20.1.1 AMS Sender port: 851 CmdId: ADS Write (3) StateFlags: 0x0005 .... .... .... ...1 = RESPONSE: Set .... .... .... ..0. = NO RETURN: Not set .... .... .... .1.. = ADS COMMAND: Set .... .... .... 0... = SYSTEM COMMAND: Not set .... .... ...0 .... = HIGH PRIORITY COMMAND: Not set .... .... ..0. .... = TIMESTAMP ADDED: Not set .... .... .0.. .... = UDP COMMAND: Not set .... .... 0... .... = INIT COMMAND: Not set 0... .... .... .... = BROADCAST: Not set cbData: 4 ErrorCode: NO ERROR (0x00000000) InvokeId: 0x00000002 ADS Write Response Result: NO ERROR (0x00000000) So from a protocol point of view it actually accepted the request and at least said that it processed it correctly. I’ll check if my demo program might be setup wrong. Chris Von: Patrick Boisclair <pboiscl...@noovelia.com> Gesendet: Montag, 15.

It does not even show up any traffic in Wireshark. I haven't confirmed cause yet. I have not completed setting wiring and program for tests with CX (TC2) I got. I already found there is a trouble with reading of symbol table (SYM_UPLOADINFO2) due to new IEC decoder. It seems that it attempts to read more than is available in underlying response from PLC.
