What IP cameras are supported and can VTscada support PTZ on any of them.
Basically i have a Total Volume Tag I want to snapshot it into Current Month and Previous Month Calculation Tags on the 1st of the month at 8am.
Volume = 1000
Snap = 500
Cmonth = Volume - Snap
At the rollover time move the Cmonth to the Pmonth
and then move the Volume into the Snap.
Does anyone have any good ideas in how to do this in VTScada?
Thanks,

I am using VtScada-Light and have a few days of data stored.
Everything works great - it is a really nice product.
How can I move the Historical Database to a different larger drive?
Thank you
When using a Zoom modem for alarm dial-out, I am getting a SAPI Error: 0x8004530A when attempting to call out. I have downloaded the correct driver from Zoom, checked the registry settings, set my area code and run the diagnostics on the modem (every was normal). Any thoughts?
Solved - We had the modem installed on a rack mount server running Server 2019 with no sound card.
Apologies if this has been asked already. Can I copy one of VTScada's widgets to my own library and then make some changes?
Their runtime widget doesn't do exactly what I need but I'd like to use it as a starting point to save time.
Dear Sir,
our client want to pool data from VTScada server,
the VTScada already have OPC server license,
they want to pool data from another computer,
is there any tutorial / guide?
we already try to read the documentation, but still not understand,
where we create the Opcserver tags? is it below the driver / port tags?
for example server and client user windows 7, whats sh

I have created one IO calculation tag (analog) that shows the value of PUMP RUN TIME in the second.
Ex. Let say I got a tag value as 3600 seconds.
From this tag, I need to show PUMP RUN TIME as in format 01:00:00 (hour:minute:second).
If the value is 3720 I need to show it as 01:02:00 (h:m:s)
If the value is 3750 I need to show it as 01:02:30 (h:m:s)
How can I show that?
Trying to input an analog value in a numeric entry box with 1 decimal place and publish over MQTT. Everything works fine but if the data entry is done wrong (entering a .xx value) the publish fails on the receiving PLC end. I limit the numeric entry box to 1 decimal and it displays properly in the the box (enter a number xx.xx and only xx.x rounded up is shown), but in the MQTT world as soon as E

I have my DNP3 protocol XML file that includes Digital inputs, Digital outputs, Analog inputs, Analog outputs, Counters, etc.
I need to parse this data to VTScada and I need that VTscada generates tag accordingly.
How can I read the XML file into VTScada and end results that VTScada automatically generates the tags in Tag browser?
How can I do that?

I need to extract all the Images available in Idea studio as in .jpg format. I need to export all those images from Idea studio in jpg format.
How can I do that?
Can you please guide me with the required steps?
Is there any way to rename a type? I can't figure out a way through the application configuration or through export & sync. I have tried exporting and changing the name on the VTS_Reserved tab and deleting the export info and data fields but that didn't seem to work.
Alternatively, is there an easy way to make a copy of a type?
Anyone have any ideas?

I am trying to check Modbus communication using Simulation.
But values are not updating during Simulation (version 12) on my laptop(Windows 10, i5, 12GB RAM).
IP address series also kept same. i.e. 192.168.1.100(laptop) and 192.168.1.104 (TCP port Connection)
If I keep IP address as 127.0.0.1 as shown in Tutorial videos, then simulation works and values are updated for Modbus.

My PLC contains some ASCII text stored within sequential MODBUS registers. How can this be displayed in VTScada?
I've tried both an "I/O and Calculations" tag with a String data type as well as a Legacy "String I/O" tag. No mater how I set these up numbers are displayed instead of text. Also, there is nowhere to put in the range of Modbus registers which hold the numbers which represent th

I'm trying to use Analog Statistics on a calculated tag. The minimum and maximum values for yesterday are always the same. The calculated tag is combining a low and high register value for flow pulses. You can see the direct reading of the low register tag (2nd pic) shows yesterdays minimum and maximum values correctly. I also attached the calculation tag and expression I used. Why do the statis

I am working on integrating some backend ERP database information into some of the views we have setup. In working to get a query to operate I have a number of where clause items but it appears there is a length limit on the number of characters for the query. Is this configurable and can I make that a longer value? Thanks,
I had a issue and was wondering if there were any known issues.
VTSCADA version 12.0.05
I created a Analog Output and a IO Calculation Tag (Only one was active at a time just to make sure it wasnt a tag type issue) to write Seconds to a PLC to verify VTSCADA was communicating to the PLC.
When i logged off my user account both tags would stop writing to the PLC, i added the logged off
Hello. New to this software and trying to get an analog input to read correctly. Maybe this has a simple solution and I'm just missing it.
Basically, I'm reading the analog input register of a MODBUS device which uses a 16-bit unsigned register for its 4-20 mA input. You get a value of 0-65535 with this.
If I read this register with VTScada, it works fine until the 16th bit changes from a
Hello,
I've begun using VTScadaLIGHT and I've run into some trouble. I started logging some data and I noticed after a few days that my timestamp is off. Turns out the system's clock was set for the wrong time zone.

I have been using Push Button widgets with a Siemens S7-1200 and digital I/O tags. I assign the HMI button bit in the PLC to another bit in the PLC and immediately reset the HMI button bit.

Now using an OPC-DA connection with an ABB controller, pressing the bu
I'm communicating with an ABB AC800M PLC using the OPC-DA Driver in VTScada. When reading tags, I can increase the "scan rate" in the tag itself, and as long as the OPC server is properly configured, I can get updated values as frequently as I need them.
Pushbuttons on the other hand are "written" to the OPC Server, and there is a 1 second delay at least from pushbutton press to the time the
Hi, in tag browser we can see tag values displayed but they all drop out periodically, with corresponding drop out of information on screens. I'm pretty sure this means that the polling loop is taking too long.
I'd like confirm our strategy for dealing with this:
a. adjust polling intervals on all tags to minimum required.
b. adjust timeout period on our ScadaPACK node, for which all

I am in need of help establishing comms to a PLC via the GESRTP driver. I have added a driver to the main area and added children to it as shown in the attached pic.

Trying to monitor Modbus registers in an Accuenergy Acuvim II power meter.

The company I work for has an embedded product that runs on linux.
We have a big customer that wants the data from our product to be integrated into their VTScada system. Our data consist of simple booleans, integers, floats, and strings.
As you might guess our management has asked me to investigate the effort it would take to implement.
Where can I start? Can someone point me
