Started creating tags that will be connecting to a Siemens PLC and I am getting an error about Tag Address I'm using. Can someone tell me what;s wrong with this PLC tag's address format?
Could there be an issue in the Siemen's tag driver settings?

VTScada stored all history data in its default Historian.
I have used that default historian only in my application and I have logged some values with the default Historian.
How Can I read this store's historian tag values in MS SQL Server?

I am receiving a value of 273 from the BACnet driver but within Wireshark capture I am getting no errors and can see the correct Value being returned.
Any idea why VTScada is giving out an error code of 273? The tag I created has no value which I am assuming since the driver is getting a value of 273 and not 0?
Here is what VTScada is showing:
but here is the proper value comin

Hi all,
This whole OT/ICS world is pretty new to me but I am trying to pick it up and work my way through it, but just looking for a bit of help with something.
I am trying to set up a virtual lab to demo how easy it can be for a hacker to change values and mess with OT equipment if the network is not correctly secure. Originally this was just with getting remote access to a private comp

I have noticed that if I am using a text box that I am unable to type ".00" to the end of a number, really any length of that .0, .000, etc. If I type it in the program automatically removes it.
It is a small thing but it creates uniform numbers when I have to list of a few of them and the rest have single or double decimal places.
If there is a way to turn that function off?

Hello,
I am having a really difficult time getting the BACnet Driver to make a connection to an MGate 5217 from MOXA which is a BACnet to Modbus gateway. I am very new to VTScada light but I was able to get the Modbus driver on VTScada to work so I know I am close.

Using the tag scaling function does not allow for the 4mA offset of my 4-20mA loop field devices. I'm guessing that this needs to be allowed for by performing a calculation. I check the calculation box in the tag properties window, this causes the IO and scaling tabs to disappear and a calculations tab is substituted. There seems to be little guidance for using this feature. Perhaps I am on the w

Hello,
I have an odd problem currently where I am trying to link a text to the output value of a multi-write tag. In the text properties I am setting it to 'linked tag properties' and then finding the appropriate tag and then selecting "OutputValue1" (I am assuming this would be the result of the value field in the 1st row of the output tags.)
The problem is that after I select this the

I have a site that has two RDP connections, currently both are being run as a 'service' type so I can access them via the webpage (anywhere client) and view the interface pages. The only issue is that I need to edit the graphics for these sites.
As far as I can find in the help documents one of these RDP's needs to be running as an application in order to access the graphics Idea Studio.
in the SQLQuery help page, there is a section "The current values of a tag may be retrieved using a table name with the format "TagName_Current". This table will have one row whose columns are Timestamp (the current time) and the current values of each logged value in the tag.".
How do I use the "TagName_Current"? Can you give me an example? Thanks.
Does the release of your Graphic Terminal Licence ( https://www.vtscada.com/documents/datasheets/Datasheet-VTScada-GraphicTerminalLicense.pdf ) mean we'll be getting pop-up keypad/keyboard input widgets soon?

Inside the studio there are the default shapes in the shape tab. When using these shapes I noticed that the only shapes with the options for Fill Pattern, Fill Pattern Color, Outline Line Width, and Outline Line Style (see image below) are only available on the Rounded Rectangle (the default 4 corner, and the default 2 corner) is there a way to get these options on the other shapes?

In VTscada, is there a way to link a tag to an alarm acknowledgement button in the alarm window that can turn on or off a tag in the PLC?
Thanks.
I need VTScada to wait for a bit to turn on, then do something in response. How is this done in our software?
In CitectSCADA that's called an event. In RSView call this a Macro. I can't find the VTScada equivalent to this feature. Any help, pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.
Dear Sir,
Negative Value is not showing on trend graph,

I am dealing with a few sites that are split between ClearScada and VTScada. The goal is to have all of the sites in VTScada and I would like to know if there is a possible process in place to migrate the files and tags from ClearScada into VTScada? Or if there is another process (besides manually making new applications in VTScada for the old ClearScada sites).
Thanks!
