CODESYS^® Release Plan &
Roadmap

Support of FSoE Master

This version introduces message security for Pub/Sub for runtimes V3.5 SP21 or later (with runtimes < V3.5 SP22, it must use the same certificate using in other OPC UA functions). Additionally, the OPC UA Pub/Sub license is included in the "software metrics" dialog.

Maintenance Update

This version will contain bug fixes.

Support for additional data types and events is added to complete support of DNP3 Level 1 for the outstation library.

Additionally support for implementing a DNP3 master will be added.

Support for exporting the OPC UA server contents as nodeset xml files for offline engineering of OPC UA clients.

This version contains bug fixes.

This version will contain bug fixes, improvements and the following new features:

• Topology Editor that displays graphically all involved devices and its connections.

• Dynamic Reconfiguration to support online change when modifying/adding devices

This version <li> provides an optimizes "JSON Utilities SL" based on IString (STRLIB), <li> maintains Mail Service, Web Client, MQTT <li> is forward compatible with upcoming CAA-free BASLIB 5.0 (and also still with CAA-based BASLIB 4.0), <li> resolves placeholders of IIOT libraries to the add-on version.

New library implementing the SRCI interface for commanding robots of various vendors.

The Simulation Interface integrates CODESYS applications into machine simulations (Software-in-the-loop) by a toggle switch using OPC UA mechanisms (machine simulation requires compliant connector).

This version is free from dependencies on discontinued CAA libraries. It is compatibly to version 4.0.0.0 with one exception: user-defined data types within Element Collections now need to implement MBM.IDisposable. (They can, at the same time, be compatible with Element Collections 4.0. This allows for an transition period until all used add-ons / libraries have been made compatible with Element Collections 5.0.)

Additionally, this version provides fixes for multi casting (BASLIB-239) and online change (BASLIB-63), and unbound-placeholder resolution for the Memory Block Manager library of CODESYS.

This version contains bug fixes.

Besides some bug fixes and improvements this version contains the following visualization dialogs optimizations:

• New edit dialogs for spezial data types like date and time
• Numpad/keypad which can also be operated via the keyboard
• Possibility to assign different keys for the keypad for different languages

With this version, the Automation Server has its own file system in the cloud to store any files. In addition to pure file storage, this also enables additional files to be remotely deployed to PLCs along with the actual CODESYS application.

The first stable release after the 0.9 preview brings key improvements, including: • An updated and cleaner file format • Harmonized line endings for improved Git compatibility • Optimized user experience (SP22 improvements) • Compatibility with CODESYS Git V2.0.0.0 • Optimized Scpripting driver Perfect for professional, file-based project management!

New version enhances the SubNodeCom library to provide more detailed and precise diagnostic information.

This version contains mainly bug fixes and some improvements in various product areas.

This version contains bug fixes.

Maintenance and usability version. This version will support ConformanceTest 22.

This release will fix several Bugs, including but not limited to: LDFBD-405: A transition object, implemented in LDFBD with an unknown block at the top level causes an exception. LDFBD-390 and related other Bugs: Parallels containing Boxes may have distorted lines.

This version contains several Improvements and Bug fixes. For example the usablility will be improved by enablling the horizontal scrolling with the mouse wheel.

With this version we will improve the usability for certificate signing request (CSR) and certificate revocation lists (CRL)

• Update to runtime SDK V3.5 SP21 Patch 3
• Deploy Tool: Improved Usability - Information over missing dependencies

This version contains several improvements and bugfixes.

Besides several bug fixes, this version contains usability improvements for CODESYS Safe Control Core 4.2.0.0

This version contains performance improvements and bug fixes.

Service packs for CODESYS V3 are released at annual intervals and include numerous improvements and bug fixes.

Enables the usage of the Test Manager in noUI mode for CI/CD workflows.

CODESYS SoftMotion 4.20.0.0 brings a new transition mode to our robotics. This new mode allows to control the blending based on the distance in axis space.

This version prepares the transition to version 5.0: It provides unbound-placeholder resolution for the Memory Block Manager library of CODESYS. This allows for add-ons and for projects that can safely switch between Base Libraries 4.0.1 and 5.x.

A chatbot will be integrated into the online help website which can answer user queries based on the most recent CODESYS online help contents.

This version will include several bug fixes. Additionally with this version it should be possible to select local packages during the installation process.
