Hi all,

I have an application in which each tag has a context folder with tags just for internal use. That is, tags that will be needed for some widgets but we don't need the final user, in this case, the operators to have access to them.

Is there a way to hide them from the list of tags but still have them do their job?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, Im wondering if there is a way to build one popup, and each time its opened, depending on what screen its on, if there is a way to assign a different UDT or tag for it to look at. For example, if i have 3 displays that all show flowmeters, can I use a single popup instead of creating 3 separate popups and just have the tags that it looks at, change based on the page its on??

This would be a simple thing to add. Have a system properties that sets the default width of drawings pipes and lines. So you dont need to always change the width if you don't like the huge default size of pipe drawing tool.

Hello, I am trying to create a control screen on the left hand side that auto populates depending on what equipment is present on the main screen. So if we have 3 pumps on the main screen, the side screen should autofill with 3 pump start/stop button that correctly reference the names of the pumps.

Could anyone point me to a resource that would help with this setup?

Thank you.

Hey,

I am working on a project using Trihedral’s software & I could use guidance. I am in the process of configuring a few systems; but I am running into challenges when it comes to optimization and best practices. I want to hear from others who have had experience with this software.

What are some of your go-to tips for setting up efficient SCADA systems using VTScada? Anyth

Hello everyone! I am a new VTScada developer that needs some guidance. Here is my current challenge that I need help with:

Our team wants to set up a callout system using Twilio. I've got that part working in a test environment. The next step is setting up a page or widget or other method that allows operators to modify the roster without tag permissions. We want certain operators to be able

I would like to know if it is possible to have remote access to the supervisory system through the domain/url without a VPN?

I'm using scada to interface to a PLC. Is there a way to create a keyboard hotkey to interact with graphic to toggle switch. Instead of pressing actual switch connected to PLC.

The customer will purchase the paid version of VTScada. He will need to access the factory supervisor (a specific sector) remotely, but it will not be done via an Ethernet cable, so as not to run the risk of being on Wi-Fi and others, so it will be via Modbus RTU. I need some help on how to do this procedure and for it to work through VTScada.

Hi,support
As shown in the figure below:
Variable A01 is a type and below it there are 10 variables, and I want to store the history of these 10 variables in different VTScada's history databases

Are there any 2 benefits to doing so?

1.Users can set the retention time of the database data according to their needs, for example,
HistorisanA is retained for 1 year,

Hi,Support
In order for VTScada to store data for 2 or 3 years, I need to expand the capacity of user's computer's hard drive, and I need to use RAID,
We will provide 3 ways: RAID0 or RAID1 or RAID10,
Allow users to choose one of the three RAID modes,

Can these three RAID modes store VTScada historical data normally?

Thank you

Greetings,
I, as most people, am working to create an RTU that utilizes the MQTT communications protocol. Right now I am testing with a local broker and have data reliably getting to VTScada.
However, I need the ability to write data back to a certain topic with a certain metric. The ability seems to exist, yet I have not had any luck with VTScada publishing the message correctly yet.

Hello everyone,

I am fairly new to using VTScada and I am looking for some advice on how to set up alarms efficiently. I understand that alarms are crucial for monitoring and alerting us to critical conditions but I want to make sure I am configuring them in the best possible way to avoid unnecessary noise and ensure quick response to actual issues.

Here are a few specific questions I hav

I've been using VTScada for a while now but one thing I cannot get to work is colourising Indicators.

All I want to do is have an indicator that in OFF state from a digital status tag is one colour and that in ON state from the same tag is green or yellow or red.

When I try to colourise and link the tag to any of the indicators all I get is grey when OFF and white when ON.

I'm clearly
