I needed a left triangle & a right triangle to make the shape I need in idea studio.

I thought could make two right triangles & mirror one of them but the mirror feature doesn't work with shapes, only with images.

I'm editing the pages .SRC now but that feels to me like a lot of work to do something which should be routine.

I muse be overlooking something basic here. What do o

I'm encountering an issue with VTScada where a specific tag stops logging data after performing a backup to an external USB drive (C:\VTSCADA). This doesn't happen every time, but approximately once a week, right after the backup is completed, the tag flatlines. It's consistently the same tag that's affected.

For context, I am using a Windows script that only backs up files that have changed

Hi Sir,

I have tried to do alarm notification test by email. Sending alarm notification to my email and acknowledge from my email by replying the email.

When I tested, the alarm notification received successfully to my gmail account. However, the alarm was automatically acknowledged even though I didn't acknowledge by replying the email with with ACK*XXX XXX (XXX XXX is alarm acknowledge

I have set up an OPC UA Client in VTScada. I am trying to access data along with its timestamp. Does VTScada support all the different types as defined in part 6 of the OPC Foundation’s OPC UA specification, section 5.1.2? I am looking to use the DataValue type (23).

I have created two tags with the same node addressing but one has the ty field set to 1, and the other 23. The value for

Hi all,

Is it possible to implement "IF" "ELSEIF" operator functions at the I/O tag expression level?

I would normally write my expression as...

IF ([06. Profile Section] == 6) THEN ;
((3.145 *([08. Width] / 2) *([08. Width] / 2) * ([09. Length]) / 1000000000) * 100) ;
ELSEIF ;
([06. Profile Section] == 7) THEN ;
(((3.145 *([08. Width] / 2) *([08. Width] / 2) / 2) * ([09. Length]

Hi,

I need to use a Dataflow module that's not currently in my list of available communication modules (specifically DCM032) in order to communicate with an older RTU -- is there a way to add this module or create a new one with the appropriate properties?

Thanks!

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone could help me out...

I want to query a set of PLC recipe values from a tag change value (not the Retrieve button widget).

tag value change example:

(Scope(\VTSDB, "10}~q%wgad10\z)%&tz;10\u%10da}ikg-", TRUE)\Value <> 0;

Existing code using the retrieve button looks like this:

PickValid(Scope(\VTSDB, "9}~q%wgad3\z)%&tz;4\u%5da}

Hi,

We have operators leaving notes on the screens of their assigned stations.
We are also connecting a database system to our VTScada server via API, for automated data analysis & statistics of our stations.

We would now like to import the operator notes into our analytics system.

We have managed to import the notes payload from a selected station, by querying the "notebook"

I have an application to mointor run time on a pump and would like to know if i can create a tag to monitor run time in seconds and then log the cycle time when pump stops. pump on/off would be a tag from a PLC.
Sequence = Pump on - measure run time - Pump Stops - Log Time and reset Timer.
Example log should look like this.

I am using the below expression in an IO/Calculation tag to get the number of critical and high alarms for the dependent tags

\AlarmManager.GetAlarmStateStats([PLC_01a]\Root)\ActivePriorities["0001"]

Most of the parent tags I get good results. Any ideas on why some results are invalid? Does this indicate there are no alarms configured in tags within the structure?

Or is it a matt

We have a system with Redundant Allen Bradley ControlLogix 1756-L82E PLCs linked with the 1756-RM2 redundancy module. I am having issues with trying to come up with the correct Port Segment Path for the Rockwell Driver. I assume with the redundant PLCs, you reference the redundancy module for tag information and allow them to route the message to the primary PLC.

I am going behind someone on an unfinished attempt to display alarm counts by area. Below is an alarm query tag calculation path for the influent pump station area:

I am getting no value results. Does anyone have any insight on what may be wrong with this parameter or if there is another metho

Just wanted to check in and see if I am doing something incorrectly inside this window.

I just have a bunch of widget selected at once. I wish to delete multiple widgets in this selection. My first instinct was to just right click a widget inside the window and click delete. The surprising part is that the system then unselected all of my widgets that I had selected. I selected the group aga

I am trying to find a way to change the Font colour of the Droplist widgets Title text. The Style and Font links are for the text in the droplist but there seems to be no option for the title text. It currently defaults to pure black and this is not a great colour for me to use in the HMI I am using this widget on. Is there a work around to be able to change the colour of the TITLE text?
