I would like to use VTScadaLight to send process data to an OPC UA server so that other OPC UA compliant programs can have access to that data.

Does VTSLight support this functionality or do I require a fully licensed version of VTS?

If VTSLight does support this functionality is there documentation that describes how to configure it appropriately.

I attached an excerpt from the help files, but I would like to discuss it for a second.

file:///C:/VTScada/VTSHelp/Content/D_Tools/Dev_Backups.htm

If there is a single application on site, and we need a backup solution that is automatic AND shutting down and restarting the application isn't possible, is using windows file history an acceptable method for continuous backup?

It was not difficult to communicate a Koyo PLC with VTScada by means of Modbus TCP, being both, PLC and VTScada in the same LAN.
However, I have not been able to communicate them when the PLC is connected to a router outside the LAN of VTScada.
I typed a public IP address and the PLC port number when configured the TCP/IP port in the VTScada.
The resulting value of TCP/IP Port is -10,06

For a school I work on three small PLC controlled processes supervised by separate VTScada applications to manage
some food processing equipment (evaporator, powder dryer machine, autoclave) that the students have to learn to work with.

Is there a report tool for VTScada that enables me to document the details of the tags of these applications in an organized way for the project document

I am looking to display the following VIC Client information in a project:


Server Name client is connected to
Client Name
Logged in Windows username that the client is running on

For item 1 (Server Name) I am using the following expression which is working fine: \DisplayManager\RootSession\Name

How would I reference items 2 & 3 above?

Hi, I would like to put a numeric entry box somewhere in my application so that the alarm parameters (like low alarm setpoint) can be changed without the user having to go into the tag properties. Is it possible to reference these parameters outside the properties box? for example like how you can reference a tags value by using \Value

If that is not possible then is it possible to create a t

Has anyone experienced issues being online with an Allen Bradley PLC, causing VTScada to slow down or even lose communication at all? Doesn’t really cause any major issues (yet) but I’m curious if anyone else has seen this, thank you

We are preparing to upgrade our software from 11.3 to 12.0+ and I am looking for any information that we need to know before upgrading? (i.e. are there any windows updates that don't play nice with VTScada v12?, any major changes we should prepare for going from 11.3 to 12?)

Also, as a secondary question, is it possible to launch our application on a different PC/Server and run it as if it we

What is the best/easiest way to manually disable comms to a device that is missing? I have devices that are offline at times and I want to optimize comms by preventing the driver from trying to constantly attempt comms to a device that I know is offline. Is there a setting I can toggle? Thanks.

We have 4 computers on the same network at a single location, none of them have internet access and the times on the computers will tend to float away from each other. Is there a way to sync all 4 using VTScada somehow? Basically just need to have one common time across all stations if possible.

Hi community, is there a way to clear the logged trend plot line data. I want to keep storage on the host pc to a minimum and do not want this file to get too large. Keeping data for a long time is not a priority so I would like to delete the logged data periodically. Thank you.

Hi community. I am trying to use a calculation tag to determine the bit status of an analog value. I cannot seem to get the syntax correct to put in the expression. I found the code snippet below but I think that may be for scripting not expressions...not sure Is there any documentation on functions and syntax for these expressions? trying [value] && 4 does not work to find the statu

Hello vt scada community. New user here. I am looking for assistance to create several digital tags based off the value of a single Modbus register. For example, register 40001 value =1 is "pump running". Same register 40001 value =2 is "pump stopped". How can I accomplish this with minimal tag usage? Thank you

I need to create a report that will display the lowest value that a tag registered throughout an entire day, along with the time that occurred. On top of that I need to display this information for the entire month.

I really do not know how to approach this at the moment.

I thought about using the standard report type since I believe it dumps all the available data into the report, and th
