I am trying to map an I/O tag to an Emerson FB107 but can not figure out the address assist Logical Number. It does not seem to match up with the TLP number.
I'd like to setup an alarm to go off when a specified windows service is not running.
Is this going to be compatible

If you seem to have lost your VIC graphics after accepting Windows build 1903, we are looking into it. As a workaround, stop the VIC. Open Internet Explorer and clear the cache.
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Trihedral, right click on the VTSX.exe and run it as administrator - even if you are an administrator.
Log in and run it once. Close it. You should be able to run it normally from your
I am working with an Omron Cj2H. Programmed analog inputs and reading into a DM. Positive values are performing okay, but as soon as I go slightly negative ( reverse flow), then the number jumps to 65535. This is telling me it is wrapping around. I have tried using negative values in the scaling, but have not been successful at this point.
I can watch the channel in the plc and it remains nega
I am having an issue connecting to a ControlLogix PLC. See attached pictures about the backplane configuration and the current error on VTS. Any ideas? I can provide any further information as needed.
Lastly, using a C-More touchscreen, and I can access the main CPU through 10.133.64.31, backplane port 0, easily.

Hi, Is there a way to edit a Type property from the VT HMI? Some users will not have access to the Tag Browser but may be required to change IP address which is set up as a property of the Site Type. I tried several methods to set up a Linked Tag Widget but have been unsuccessful.
I'm thinking that I may have to script it somehow but want to know if I'm missing something before I go down that
Voice modem users,
Microsoft has broken TAPI with Windows 10 1903.
If you update workstations to this Windows version, you will struggle to get any voice functions from your voice modems, especially with the Multi-Tech USB modems.
I am building a plant from scratch. The plant has different types of equipment and all I can see in VTScada are various pumps, valves, and motors. Has anyone built or have access to bar screens, conveyor belts, weir gates, or anything else that might be useful?
Thanks in advance!
Dear all,
we already configure all tag in current plant with Modbus Serial Port,
is there any easiest way to convert this project to Modbus TCP Port, so we don't have to re link all the tag?
I'll be bringing up a replacement server for one that got a hit by lightening and I need to know the trick for getting VTscada to only poll the serial modbus connections from the active server in a redundant server config.
In the Modbus driver is there a way to reverse the Bit Order? I know we can rearrange bytes for Ints and Floats, is there a simple way to reverse the bit order?
Good Day Support Team,
Few months ago i built an application running with ModBus communication. On the laptop i made it, it works like a charm.
Then i've installed VTScada on another laptop, and import the project that was on my persoanl laptop on this new one.
i set up the fixed IP address as suppose to be, but i have no communication at all. I can PING the IP of the PLC, so it means
I am working with a Siemens S7 TIA Portal program and I am trying to pull the part type from the PLC into the VTSCADA system. The issue I am having with the String I\O is I am only getting the DEC form of the tag and not the CHARACTER values. In the PLC in a watch table when I look at the exact tag in DEC I get the value of 2565 but in CHAR I get DB 10 (FW part type). is there something I can do

How can I import a single custom widget that I've created and make it so that it is not editable?
Thanks in advance!
Hello, I am evaluating VTScada for our facility and am working with the scadalight. I have not worked with Omron Plcs in many years and need some information.
My plc has some levels which are stored in a data area (ie D0700). The PLC resides on our network (ie 192.168.10.20). From the program, I do know they set the port to 2120 instead of the default 9600. I am not sure which settings to use
I can successfully pull up the data into Excel using ODBC connection. The SQL statement like
select * from Alarms;
is working perfectly fine. The issue is when I use 'where' statement, I get an error. The following command is giving an error.
select * from Alarms where Active = 1;
OR
select * from Alarms where 'Active' = 1;
OR
select * from Alarms where Active = '1';
I am trying to integrate in a counter and some automated resets. The plant is currently changing the times of shifts a lot and I would like to allow them to configure on the fly. Is there a way I can change the trigger tag using parameterization? If so I cannot find any information on the exact syntax or how to do so.
Hello,
I'm using VTScada Light for a POC (proof of concept) in my customer. The application works well for a fell minutes, but after this it lose the communication and doens't update the registers values. Is there anything to do to solve this problem?
Hello,
I would like to know if there is a possibility to get the real-time information of the alarms that arrive in the system, via ODBC, a list of the alarms that arrived in a certain period of time. I've tried to understand the file alarm.db and Alarm.LOG, but it seems illegible to me. Can someone help me?
Hi,

We cannot seem to get Alarm notifications to work with Office365. The smpt server is supposed to be smtp.office365.com, I'm told, but when we have this as the SMPT address using port 587 and TLS encryption we get the following error: "SendMail Error [9]: Server doesn't support authentication"
We do get alarm notifications if SMPT settings as follows: Email Server: {company}-com.mail.protectio
Dear Dave, Thanks.
Do you mean thru realm we can authenticate other users from same network? if yes then please forward the link to install odbc driver again, the one you sent is not working.
As I know ODBC is to link with third party like xlreporter.
but is it possible to run the application it self from the remote laptop? How, is it thru OPC client and server configuration? is it
Dear all,
I have installed VTSCADA light in a data logger (windows operating system) and link the logger to controller (modbus device) thru rs232.
Is there any solution to access from remote laptop?
Is ODBC or XLreporter provide this solution? is it free or at least demo for testing?

What is the syntax for specifying a particular .wav file in the Alarm Setup tab of a Digital Status tag.
I want the sound for certain tags to be different from the others of the same Priority level. I'm planning on using an included .wav file.
Thanks

Hello,
I have a S7-1516F-3 and I have a question about tags.
I have a PLC with a lot of data blocks collecting the production counts and information. They PLC is connected to an HMI using symbolic addressing instead of absolute addressing. How can I access these tags?
Thank You!
I am trying to connect to a Siemen's 1513-1 PN through a CP 1543-1 communications processor. When I do I am getting a value of 33,028 on my driver tag.
I cannot get my VIC to work.
I don't know if its my network here at the plant or what.
