Is there a way to move the Data Age from a polling driver that is a child to the parent Context Tag/Custom Tag type? i looked through the source debugger for a variable and could not find one. i am assuming this may not be possible with the default context site details widget that is displayed. And yes i know if the polling driver is the parent it displays automatically.

Is their any plans to release this driver to be used in VTScada light?
TLDR: I want to create an additional historian. And want all the new tags under a parent context tag to point to the new historian.
I have added a setting in the past to change the server list for all child tags, using "DriverServerListName" setting in a parent tag. Does such a setting exist for historians as well?
My problem is that all of my tag types have been defined and have their ch

Is there a way, within the numeric value widget, to show the thousands separator (as the tag browser does) for an analog i/o tag?
6,512,342 is easier to read than 6512342.
I tried the CommaFormat function within a text expression, but it wouldn't let me hit "Ok" after putting an analog tag as the argument in the function.

How do I add VTScada's native account fields to my supervisor? I need to create a login screen, as it will be for teachers and students, and each user has their respective permissions.

Dear vtscada authority, I have been wanting to pull data directly from the scada database by establishing an odbc connection for a long time, but I could not establish the connection.
I have two questions:
first one: the ODBC license in the manuals asks if it is active, I do not see this part active or deactive, or even not at all, has this been removed with the new license?
Second: d

I have a VT Scada realm configured with 9 applications. When I connect to this realm using the ODBC DSN, I only see the tags configured in the first application of the realm.
Do I need to create a new realm for each application? Can multiple VT Scada realms run on the same machine at the same time without issue?
What would be the best way to approach this kind of configuration? My goal

How do I create text buttons (inputs) for login access? For example, in VTScada, I created my user with the necessary permissions. In the supervisory, I want to add two input buttons and a confirmation button. These input buttons would be Username and Password. The user will enter their username and then their password. If it is correct, go to the plant Synopsis page. How do I do that? I'm

I'm currently working through developing some new windows for a client. I'm new to VT Scada and have spent the bulk of my career in Ignition. I was given a changeset file to reference what they currently have or at least within the last 6 months. I started a new application to develop just the new pages and tags that I will import into the client's system.

By the way, I am aware of VTScada's multi line text widget. That widget doesn't let

Hello, I'm trying to figure out the process for retaining historical trend data during a hardware upgrade, where I am also upgrading the VTS version.

Hi,
I am trying to create a TAG context for a group of Modbus tags.
my data type is IEEE Double Precision Floating Point (8 bytes), and I need to write an expression for the TAG address so that the address will change by the meter number;
Meter #1:

TAG3 address: 31009/Double
Meter #2:
TAG1 address: 31021
Does VTScada have the ability to acknowledge alarms via text or email?

So I've had a pulse rate tag that's been pulsing and working fine for the past few weeks with zero issues. Now all of the sudden its reading as a zero for the pulse rate. This number will fluctuate from outputting a zero to outputting the correct number at its own will. Has anyone seen this before? I feel like this could be a possible bug on VTScada's end?

Fairly new to VTScada and I need help setting up certain tag to pull from a weather station (Columbia 420) we have.
The station keeps a running total up to 10 inches before rolling back to 0 inches. I would like to display rainfall today but the reset back to 0 has me stumped as to how to setup that tag to account for the rollover which could happen in the middle of the day.
