When downloading the Codesys CODESYS application, a config.rsc is automatically created by CodesysCODESYS, which is saved on the Codesys CODESYS project devices that are configured in CodesysCODESYS.
This configuration is created every time the Codesys CODESYS application is started and replaces the PiCtory configuration.
This means that any default PiCtory configuration saved or configured by PiCtory will be overwritten by the RevPi Codesys CODESYS application.

Note

PiCtory should not be used to configure devices (read only) if the RevPi Codesys CODESYS application is to run.

We are currently checking if we can also provide images based on Debian or another distribution. But we have no timeline if and when this will be ready.

When I flash an image, the transfer rate is quite low.

wonder if the Compute Module 3+ you're using in the Compact series can support displaying a Node-

RED dashboard via the HDMI port on a touchscreen, for example.

We're planning to release RevPi 4 Modules within this year. I can just say that it is possible to display Node-Red RED Dashboards on an HDMI touch screen. But the performance depends on your application. If it comes to performance, I recommend you to build yourself a custom image (Image-Bakery) in case you don't need to control IO data you can disable piControl, etc.
