Hello, thank you in advance for any support.
I am developing my first application, a demo system for a small municipality. The first page I am working on is for a little pump station with two pumps and a reservoir with level sensor.
Things are progressing reasonably well but I am having a few problems:
I'd like some text below my pump icon to say either "hand" or "auto" depending o
I won't let me select alarms at event level. I want to monitor lagging poll times without bothering the operators.
ok the scada software where im at now is on windows server 2008. im trying to get it upgraded but finance is killing me. anyway my question is can I use the old tags in scada im using now and plug them into vtscada 90 day trial. can you plug and play kind of thing or do I need to go through and add all I/Os.

I've created a Numeric Keypad popup page (meant to be touchscreen friendly) and have created a GUIButton that when pressed is supposed to Close the Popup Window. I thought the Slay(Self()) should work but it seems to be ignored. It should be a simple thing but I've been stuck on this for a while now. I'll have to close the window after the user presses my "Enter" button as well. The "Close Page"
Dear All,
can we hide / show object base on user name login,
for example if the user login "Admin" object shown otherwise object hidden.

We've been having a bit of a weird issue. Alarm Notifications are set to send email notifications on priority 1 alarms but every now and then an Alarm notification is sent for a priority 2 alarm and only a few specific priority 2 alarms it seems.
Is there a property that I'm missing that allows this under certain circumstances?
Thanks!

Could you please assist me with an analog tag. I want to use the slider control to change the value of an analog input tag , this analog input tag is connected to a tank widget to give level indication.
I got it to work more than a year ago, but for some reason, it stopped working.
Im using a Click Koyo PLC and modbus addressing.The drivers are working as all the digital inputs responds.

I am trying to calculate flow rate as a function of change of wet well level over time. I have tried using various tags types, adaptations of Ex 3-17 from the Adv Config Workbook, Intgr and Deriv functions; and everything comes up with some kind of errant data: Intgr gave max scale value, Deriv gave 0. Using the following provided the most realistic results:
"[PUMP_RUN] == 1 ? Latch(AbsTime(
So the system I’m currently working on is already providing me scaled data coming out of the flow computer. This is also in conjunction to the scaling of the raw data at the PLC level for my other analog instruments.
What is the best way to make sure I’m setting up my analog status tags properly so I’m getting the right historical data recording and displaying my data prope

So my operators are asking that the trending be able to show the next couple of hours beyond the current time for predicting when certain cycles will be done. Is there a way to adjust the time scale/axis of the HDV to show future time, without data of course?
Hello friends, I have a serious problem. VTS does not open on the server. I have two servers, one is a backup of the other, VTS only starts if the network cables are disconnected, clicking on RUN locks in 50% in the final step "Starting tags". Does anyone know how to solve?
Is there a way to get shell execute to be OS dependant.

We cannot seem to get Alarm notifications to work with Office365. The smpt server is supposed to be smtp.office365.com, I'm told, but when we have this as the SMPT address using port 587 and TLS encryption we get the following error: "SendMail Error [9]: Server doesn't support authentication"
We do get alarm notifications if SMPT settings as follows: Email Server: {company}-com.mail.protectio

We are working on setting up HMIs (10 pack) for our local control panels; dual servers are setup with application, screens, and tags (designated with areas). We have looked at the tag area filtering literature, but are apparently lacking something on server/HMI architecture as we do not have all the options in "Workstation" and "Section" options in properties.
Is there a best practice for se

I am trying to map an I/O tag to an Emerson FB107 but can not figure out the address assist Logical Number. It does not seem to match up with the TLP number.
I'd like to setup an alarm to go off when a specified windows service is not running.
Is this going to be compatible

If you seem to have lost your VIC graphics after accepting Windows build 1903, we are looking into it. As a workaround, stop the VIC. Open Internet Explorer and clear the cache.
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Trihedral, right click on the VTSX.exe and run it as administrator - even if you are an administrator.
Log in and run it once. Close it. You should be able to run it normally from your
I am working with an Omron Cj2H. Programmed analog inputs and reading into a DM. Positive values are performing okay, but as soon as I go slightly negative ( reverse flow), then the number jumps to 65535. This is telling me it is wrapping around. I have tried using negative values in the scaling, but have not been successful at this point.
I can watch the channel in the plc and it remains nega
I am having an issue connecting to a ControlLogix PLC. See attached pictures about the backplane configuration and the current error on VTS. Any ideas? I can provide any further information as needed.
Lastly, using a C-More touchscreen, and I can access the main CPU through 10.133.64.31, backplane port 0, easily.

Hi, Is there a way to edit a Type property from the VT HMI? Some users will not have access to the Tag Browser but may be required to change IP address which is set up as a property of the Site Type. I tried several methods to set up a Linked Tag Widget but have been unsuccessful.
I'm thinking that I may have to script it somehow but want to know if I'm missing something before I go down that

Voice modem users,
Microsoft has broken TAPI with Windows 10 1903.
If you update workstations to this Windows version, you will struggle to get any voice functions from your voice modems, especially with the Multi-Tech USB modems.

I am building a plant from scratch. The plant has different types of equipment and all I can see in VTScada are various pumps, valves, and motors. Has anyone built or have access to bar screens, conveyor belts, weir gates, or anything else that might be useful?
Thanks in advance!
Dear all,
we already configure all tag in current plant with Modbus Serial Port,
is there any easiest way to convert this project to Modbus TCP Port, so we don't have to re link all the tag?
I'll be bringing up a replacement server for one that got a hit by lightening and I need to know the trick for getting VTscada to only poll the serial modbus connections from the active server in a redundant server config.
In the Modbus driver is there a way to reverse the Bit Order? I know we can rearrange bytes for Ints and Floats, is there a simple way to reverse the bit order?
Good Day Support Team,
Few months ago i built an application running with ModBus communication. On the laptop i made it, it works like a charm.
Then i've installed VTScada on another laptop, and import the project that was on my persoanl laptop on this new one.
i set up the fixed IP address as suppose to be, but i have no communication at all. I can PING the IP of the PLC, so it means

How can I import a single custom widget that I've created and make it so that it is not editable?
