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!

we are taking 16 bit Integer INT1 thru DNP3. is there any way to access its individual bit.
these are my digital status, each bit representing my digital status from controller. so bit wise addressing required to access them in scada.
i tried making a calculation tag with digital IO and put an expression
but still i cant access the bit.
thanks in advance

How to exit project program by button，Which script is associated under the button? Can you give me a sample，thanks.
I am trying to make a simple toggle button that will output digital 1 or 0, and indicate feedback state with color change and text change.
The output can be changed from other locations so this button needs to change states accordingly.
Seems very basic, but this is my first VTScada project and I can't seem to accomplish what I want.
Thanks for any help I can get.
I want to send the data to the third-party system over BACnet.
How can I do that?
Although, I did some exercise referring help manual but, seems like I can only read the data from other devices.
So, can I send data over BACnet or I can only read/monitor through BACnet!!?
In my application, several tags does not have their updated value displayed in the historical data viewer.
I can see that the tag has a "live" value that is different than the value displayed in the historical data viewer.
There are no deadbands defined for the tags, and the value should be logged in the historical data viewer directly. The minimum log interval for the tags are set to "0"
IS there anyway to fix what you see below ? There seems to be a link to something, but it never allows me to go anywhere.
We use Google Drive to house information of various lift stations utilizing a program spawn widget. Here's the breakdown of that program spawn...
This is just a shortened down version of what's included in that box for program spawn properties. There are 64 lift stations, so the list below is definitely longer. I created a folder for LS71 because at the time we did not have a dedicated folder
Just wondering if anyone has had any luck using VTScada to connect to the BRX Controllers from Automation Direct. I love the PLCs but I am only successful with MODBUS comms which are limited to specific registers. I create my own User Data Types (UDT's) that are mappable to EIP Locations to which you can use Ethernet Explicit Messaging to. I am very unfamiliar with getting the communications to

Analog Input Tags, Analog Status Tags, Digital Input, Digital Status, etc are all considered legacy type tags according to the VTScada Help files. It is advised to use I/O and Calculations Tag instead. Why ? Is there anything wrong with using legacy tags ? What are the main differences from legacy tags to i/o & calculation tags ?
I am a complete beginner with VTScada Light, and I am looking to connect a bluetooth device and display data using this software. The device I am using is a combustible gas sensor. What is the best way to accomplish this?

I thought this would be simple but I'm having trouble getting it to work. I want to create a two color bar where the bar is green in normal and the entire bar turns red after the setpoint (not just the area above the setpoint). For example, a tank level 0 to 100% and high setpoint is 80%. In normal, the bar is green. When the level hits 80%, I want the entire bar to turn red not just the area
Good morning,
I just installed this wonderful SCADA, and following the help, I can not make a connection using MODBUS TCP/IP... something I am not doing well.
The modbus tcp/ip communication I do perfectly from other software, and I read and write in all directions well.
The data I have on the other soft:

I have entered string entries in my IO calculation tags.
I want to show the indicator as a green label when the written value from the VTScada to RTU gets written successfully.
As shown in the pic above, When this string value gets written successfully into the RTU from SCADA, I want to show the indicator as Green.
How can I do that? Please guide me.
Let me know if any other
I've been playing around with VTScadaLight for a few days now, wanting to learn more and more about VTScada. I can not seem to find where PMC1001 originates from ? I know it's a serial connection, a child of the Local TCP Port. I am hoping someone knows where to find PMC1001
Hello all,
I want to read the Module IP address and show that in screen under each Module Image. All I got is TCPIP port's status value but not IP address.
How can I read the IP address from the TCP port and show that in the screen for the concerned module.
Note: Do not want to add manually. It will be customizable and may be changed in future. So as per change should also reflect in

What is the correct syntax for an IO tag address to read data with the SQL Data Driver when the column name in the source data base has a '\' in it?
I'm attempting to read data from one VTScada application to another, and haven't been able to get the proper syntax for a successful query. The query when viewed in the trace viewer is always cut off after the first '\'.
