Using Recipes to Set Values dl-permalink__symbolPermalink

Use recipes to change or read recipes values for a specific set of variables (recipe definition) on the controller at the same time.

You define the basic settings for recipes, such as location and format, in the object. Insert any number of below this object.

You can save a recipe to a file or write directly from files to the PLC.

Recipes can be called via the CODESYS development interface, the visualization element, or the application program.

Using recipes on remote devices

If data source variables are involved and a data source exchange is configured, then variable values from recipes are automatically transferred to/from another controller. Reading and writing occurs synchronously. This means that all variables configured in a recipe definition are updated at the same time.

After reading or writing, you can use the call ‎g_RecipeManager.LastError‎ to check whether or not the transfer was successful (‎g_RecipeManager.LastError = 0‎).
