Hello.
I have a String Entry connected to a String I/O tag.
The value of the String I/O is now my name. If I click it, it becomes editable.
But I want it to be locked, uneditable and unselectable. I can toggle Enable Output on the String I/O, this prevents editing. But the blinking dash is still there.
I have tried making a opaque square on top of the text, that can

How is the video support in VTScada, can't find any good info in neither Developers Guide or Programmers guide.
I am using EmbedWebpage.SRC https://pastebin.com/4Pcvebxu
As example, Youtube works OK, but with a lot of lag. The video format that VTScada is able to show, is WebM - I have not been able to play any other formats.
What I'd really like to do, is to implement a browser
I have a large mobile treatment facility that has not been operated in 4 or 5 years. I just recently refurbished the entire set up and went to launch the scada computer only to find out it is completely shot. I have an old back up of the scada folder but it does not tell me what SCADA program was used to develop. I am hoping that I can utilize VT Scada to import the old programming but have no id

I want to use the values from scaling on a tag - in an expression.
<M251_simulator\Modbus_Driver\SensorNivå1\"Scaled Min">] / 20 * 5
or rather something like this:
[*Numeric\"Scaled Min"] / 20 * 5
This is not working. Gives an error.
What am I doing wrong.

Hello.
I think there is some bug related to the Selector Switches. I have spent countless hours on this, and by accident found a way to make it work. Meaning this must be some bug.
If I make more than a couple Selector Switches, the next one appear with no data. Like 40310 below. I have the exact same settings, because I copy the working Switch. I only change the adress.

I want to know where should we use SetBit Function and how it can be used. The syntax SetBit(Tag, 2, 1); is not working in my system. Please let me know the correct syntax and where it should be written.

I have made some custom widgets with several settings, digital- and analog tags. I now entered a problem. See the widget below:
I will animate the dash-bar to move up and down according to some analog value, this is no problem. But I want everything outside the dark box to be invisible.
Inserting the widget to a page makes it look like this:

Why can't I use the same expression for controlling opacity on Numeric Values and images.
(Scale(Analog_verdi\LowWarning\Value, 0, 1, 0, 1) || Scale(Analog_verdi\HighWarning\Value, 0, 1, 0, 1)) && !(Scale(Analog_verdi\HighAlarm\Value, 0, 1, 0, 1) || Scale(Analog_verdi\LowAlarm\Value, 0, 1, 0, 1))

Is there any way to have the Numeric Entry Text box clear the contents of the entry box when the operator places the cursor in the box?
Currently, where ever the cursor is placed within the entry box that is where the cursor lands, so before the decimal ... after the decimal ... and with some operators at the helm they are not recognizing where the cursor lands and they just start typing the

I have an ipad with the newest iOS firmware 10.3.3, all apps are up to date, yet when I log in the VTScada, after filling out username and password, it gives a white blank page.
Have tried different browsers: Safari, Chrome, Firefox but still not have luck.
I also have another ipad and this one is working fine. So network issues are not this case.
Would you please help me out? Thank
I was wondering how the multi color widget works with a single digital input. For some reason I can't figure out how it works. I seen in the programmers guide on how to do it with an analog input and triggers but I couldn't find it used with a digital input.
Basically I was just going to take one digital input tag from my Allen bradley plc and use the multi color widget to display when it i

I used workstation tags but the only one that is working is the local PC where VTScada is currently installed (I have it in 2 laptops but it doesnt work, although I can see them in the dropdown menu when I first configured the workstation tag.

I want to save temperatures through time.
If yes, I haven't manage it yet. I have created a Realm and added my current application to the realm.

Hello, I use VTScada Free and try to communicate with Micro 820 through CIP protocol.
I downloaded your sample, and can see that it connects to plc.
But I can't figure out how can I pass my tags.
CCW understands tags as variables. I must give a variable name and then use it.
VTScada asks for address.
I tried to pass the names I have given to variables but, no luck.
Thank you

I am trying to communicate with an SNMP-enabled Ethernet switch. I added a Driver which is connected to a UDP Port, which requires a local and remote port #. Should it be 161 for both? I have imported the MIB file and created a tag, but the driver is not communicating.

This is one of those distinctions that is easy for us to take for granted because we work with VTScada every day. It came up a few times at the ACE 2017 conference in Philadelphia.
VTScada Thick Client Licenses are each installed on individual Windows computers. Every VTScada application needs at least one installed Thick Client license. A separate license is required for each PC that has VTS
This question recently came to the Contact Us form on our website and we realized that we were not doing enough to explain this unique and important feature.

I upgraded a small test system from VTScada Lite 11.2.25 to 11.2.29 and noticed the Anywhere client no longer functions. However the VIC and MIC all still function properly.
This test system is installed on Windows 10 x64 and has all applicable windows updates installed. I uninstalled 11.2.29 and re-installed 11.2.25 and the Anywhere client functions as it should.
Where can I found a consolidated list of error codes and better descriptions than what is in the help files? Especially for driver errors!
Each new version of VTScada introduces new tools and sometimes changes how older features work. Your VTScada license entitles you to upgrades for a period of time after purchase. (Maintaining a Support Plus contract provides unlimited upgrades.) You can find the end date of your paid upgrade period in the About dialog, accessible from the VTScada Application Manager.

Sync'ing the clock on a PLC with the VTSCada computer time comes up fairly often. Depending on the requirements of the PLC, there are a number of ways to do this. The easiest way for all of them require using a trigger tag in the VTScada application that will trigger at a known time. For now, call this TriggerTimeSync and set an On schedule for 01:01 am and off 2 seconds later with no off schedul

Tank cut-away images are designed to work with the Color Fill widget. Place a cut-away on a tank and then set the color of that cut-away to something that will be unique on the page. Orange is a great choice. Now, place a Color Fill widget on top of the cut-away and set its Changed Color to match the color of the cut-away.
The Color Fill will be visible only where it overlaps the matching co
Answer - Yes!
Answer - Alarm notes can be found on the Alarm Page in the right-most column, it will contain an icon if the alarm contains a note. Simply click the icon to view the note. You will also see the note on the Operator Notes page. More on notes: www.trihedral.com/operator-notes
