Hello:
Very new user here.

I'm looking at a very small test system. Mainly looking to do some trending. Not looking for redundancy, etc.

I create an application on my laptop. What's the path to move that to a "working" computer? Can I export the application from my laptop to a USB stick, then install on the target?

thanks

What is the "intent" of a plot versus the HDV? Where would I use one and not the other?

Looks like plots are single pen?

I want to create a trend with several variables that always looks the same when it opens ... same scaling, time range. My first thought was a plot, or series of plots (because the HDV is a new concept to me) but maybe there is a better way?

thanks

Hello,

I have 2 apps running on the same VAM. I'd like to merge these apps together keeping all data. What's the best way to do this? I believe a changeset would work but I would like confirmation or ideas on other ways. Not much info on this specific topic in the reference guides.

------Edit----- I see that a changeset will not work in this case based off "create a changeset" section.

Hi Everyone,

I’m a student at a German Uni working on a project with VT Scada. I’m curious to know how one can check/know how much data is being logged and stored in VT Scada.I’ve read the user manual and watched multiple videos, however I’m yet to find the solution. I would really be appreciative for any guidance.

Thank you.

I'm trying to communicate between the Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1100 and VTScada.

I did the following procedures:


I created a Context TAG with the name of my PLC;
Then, within the Context TAG, I created another TCP/IP tag;
In the TCP/IP TAG I entered the Address of my PLC and the Port: 44818;
Within the TCP/IP TAG, I created the Driver TAG and selected the Rockwell Allen Bradley Devices D

Is there a way to specify the default size of the screen that pops up when displaying a report? It's always an 800x600 box that has to be dragged or maximized.
Thanks.

Has anyone had someone from VT SCADA come to their facility to train operators on any questions and/or all the ease of uses of their application? We are a new facility, government owned, and everyone is green to the application. It would be nice to get a tutorial to all the things VT SCADA has to offer us!

Hello,

I am considering the switch over to VT and I am getting a PC to test it out on, but will also be the main server on which it will run should I choose to do the switch.

I have always tried to purchase more than the minimum for the few SCADA servers I have setup. I want to do the same for this. However, its been a while since I have bought one and as I am building it the cost is ge

I have a custom tag type, pumpstation, with a few different report tags as children that report on flows and pump activity.

When I create a new pumpstation tag, I always have to go into the child report tags again and create new groups of tags for those reports.

I guess the report tag uses unique tag ids and not relative tag names.

Is there any way to not have to do this manually e

I have two users: admin and operator. the administrator can edit everything, super user. The operator will only be able to view the monitoring screen. How can I make him only see this page when logging into his account? the Supervisory Field page appears in the Admin. When I access the operator's account, I just want the monitoring page to appear

It is possible that the trihedral forum will make a video tutorial on how to use the "UserDialogLogon" function as there are some colleagues who are having difficulty. I tried to do it here but it didn't work.
