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

Hello, I need to convert Hexadecimal values to ASCII code.
I haven't found much information online, one script function HexToBuff however, I do not have much experience with scripting, wondering if someone can help.
Thanks
What I am doing:
Cast(
Concat(
SubStr( [Prod_End], 0, 4), {2024}
SubStr( [Prod_End], 5, 1), {1}
SubStr( [Prod_End], 7, 2), {20}
),2)
This will output 2024120 to a analog calc tag, that i will use in reporting. (I need analog type because other tags are also analog; but thats not the point)
Problem:
You can see the picture that the formatting is not foolproof. This calculation will

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.
Traditionally I have always develop

Any one pls let me know how to create a dynamic window in VTScada.
When create a dynamic window it will shrunk and resize according to the window size.
I need to come up with valid expression for two lines of text with a carriage return & line feed separating them. I've done this before but I can't remember where or how. This shouldn't be impossible to find in the help. I know it's in there somewhere but nothing I search for turns up anything useful.
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.
I've found information stating to copy the directory over from the old PC to the new PC, but it seems like I may need to install the same version of VTS on the new machine, then upgrade to the newer version, and I would like to be able to do so

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:
TAG1 address: 31001/Double
TAG2 address: 31005/Double
TAG3 address: 31009/Double
Meter #2:
TAG1 address: 31021
Does VTScada have the ability to acknowledge alarms via text or email?
Thanks John

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.

Im currently trying to find out a way that i can make a digital tag that goes from on to off and off to on every 15 minutes or so. Is there any suggestions on what the best way to do this is. I will be pairing this tag with another one in an expression to trigger a multi write tag every 15 minutes while the day is between certain times. Any suggestions help! Thanks

I'd like to use a tag to create an Upper Control Limit (UCL) and a Lower Control Limit (LCL). This involves calculating the mean and standard deviation for a period of time. The formulas would be:
UCL = mean + (3 x (Standard Deviation))
LCL = mean - (3 x (Standard Deviation))
What would be the best approach to do this? I was looking at doing an I/O Calc tag, but the avg() and SDev()
Hello,
I wrote a calculation(analog) tag to show datetime and that value will export to excel but excel is cutting the last 3 digits.
I used the following expression, and it gives the value 202310282319 which i need to process in excel but that's fine.
CONCAT(Date(Today(), "yyyyMMdd"), "", Time(Now(1), "HHmm"))
Giving hyphens between dates don't work for analog tags.

We're familiar with most SCADA software, but still learning VTSCADA. We are used to the flexibility of script to do things that native symbols and widgets do not do.
Right now, we are trying to configure a button that when clicked, will perform:

Searching through the help files, we can only find "button" style widgets in
I need to move history from one tag to another. For reasons, I need to remove one tag and replace it with another but I need to keep the history, and it's on about 80-100 tags.
Does anyone have a strategy for migrating data from one tag into another in bulk fashion? Exporting the data, massage the date and timestamp and do the CSV import would take much too long.
Thanks.
I'm looking to see if there are any tools that can "skinny" down historical data. We are now supporting some hosts that had overly high poll rates when they were commissioned, the historian subsequently got bloated and is now using up too much HDD space.
Are there any tools available that can go back and remove swaths of data, or perhaps replace a 10 min span of 1 second data with a single a
