How can I make disable Automatic Deploy Changes in VTScada.
When I try to deploy changes it says it's not applicable because of enabling automatic deploy changes.
How can I disable this?
Where are those options to disable this?

I've created a Custom Type that contains five analog tags - Value, EU_Max, EU_Min, L_Alarm, H_Alarm. Their PLC addresses are based on a custom Parameter called 'BaseAddress'. Address expression example:
\baseaddress + ".Value"
I've also tried:
Pickvalid(Concat(..\baseaddress, ".Value), "")
and
Concat(getphrase(..\baseaddress), ".Value")
etc
Have also tried checking and unchecking

If I open the Historical Data Viewer page and turn a tag's trend visibility off by clicking the eyeball icon and then close the page, the trend visibility is set to disabled globally. You go to a page showing that tag's value and click on it to open the plot and it is not visible. Not only that, but any other user will also have that tag's plot not be visible.
How can I configure the plot vis

Hello, I am new to VTScada. I have an Alarm Word from the PLC, where each bit represents an individual fault. I'd like to read the entire Alarm Word as a single tag in VTscada and create alarms for each individual bit. I have found the expression Bit([HMI Alarm Word],2) for example to work as an expression, but I'm not sure where/how to enter this to create the Alarm. Thanks.

Very simply, we are trying to split an input word into two bytes, hi & lo, but the word byte doesn't appear in functions or expressions or as far as we can determine.
This must be simple to some!
Any suggestions please

Is there a way to remove the Notpad's from the popup HDV.
For Example if each site has a notepad in the Folder it shows all them in the HDV. i am Okay with having the System Notes in there but it is just getting out of control with every other one.
Stop assigning the fourth octet of the PLC's IP address to 1.
That's where the router goes!
And no you can't assign that to the HMI either!

Hi,
I would like to add a button to spawn an external program.
Is this supported in the Lite version?
Generally, how does one find widgets -- is there a search, or do you just have know where they are?
Thanks!
Hello, I'm working on a legacy VTS (7.1.1 on Windows 7) and the PC keeps losing virtual ports - different ones each time.
Any suggestions why and how to stop it? We're upgrading shortly. Will the problem go away on Windows 10?
I had a question about Allen Bradley tag data types. I was wondering how you would define a Real or Dint using VTScada Light

I want to control the opacity of objects on screen like if the object is linked to a tag and tag is enabled, the screen should display the object. If we disable the tag, it should disable showing the object on the screen as well. How to do it.
Can anyone point me in the direction to extract two INT from a DINT?
Hi,
I am having an issue connecting to a Koyo DL330 PLC via serial. I have it setup with the correct station addresses and COM port parameters, and it appears to be reading my register R16 correctly. However, writing to the tag fails. Sniffing the serial packets, it appears that the driver is trying to pull data from 2 8-bit registers when I only want to pull from one and I believe this is w

Some people have been having an issue connecting to the Microsoft Store and downloading the Excel plugin. A lot of these we have found are because of the Excel build. Note that Excel can be up to date with security patches but still be behind on builds.
The add-in currently requires what is known as the ExcelApi 1.4 requirement set which is available in build 7870.2024 or later, so although y

We are trying to create a report for documenting the duration a sewage lift station is overflowing on a day to day basis.
We have a calculation tag setting the overflow setpoint, and an alarm tag running the trigger of "wet well level > setpoint". Followed by a logger tag monitoring the state of the alarm tag, logging at every 60 sec.
When we run daily total reports on the logger

So... in the past Calculation tags have been used to create Color tags.
With VT12 this can be done using the Universal IO Tag: String Calculation but it seems that most objects object to picking String calculation tags { see what I did there }. When picking a color for a box and you select tag and go to choose a tag, it looks for numeric tags. Interestingly, you can select the tag in the lef

The VTScada help file indicates that the RadioButtons function should be called using the Dot notation:
\System.RadioButtons(.....);
When I attempted this implementation the radio buttons did not show up in my display. After verifying my variables I tried using the "\" notation:
\System\RadioButtons(......);
This worked.
