Does VTScadaLIGHT support the Anywhere Internet Client?
The mobile client seems to work fine in a browser, but when I log into the AIC throw a web browser all I see is a white page. A logon failed notification gets logged to the System Event DB even though I know I'm using the correct credentials.

Is there a way to read a 32 bit modbus value directly into a 32 bit value in VTSCADA? This way we will not need to read a 32 bit value as 2 single 16 bit values and then combine it.

Are there any plans to allow tags names to be modified from the tag window instead of forcing us to browse for them?
This is a question that comes up more and more so our own Dave Spencer created this quick and easy video tutorial.
This video was created for VTScada version 11.2 in 2016-10.

Instructions can also be found in the VTScada Help System.

Is the latest version of VTscada, 11.2. Siemens S7 driver compatible with the S7-1200 and S7-1500 PLCs?
The driver list pdf on the website did not specifically list those models and I was curious.
Thanks,

Question from a customer: I wanted to double check on this configuration for the type of application that the software will be placed into.
The City will have a VTScada installation at their WWTP, and the WTP. The sites are about 2 miles apart and will only be connected through the Internet. We were planning to have two separate applications installed at each site, but allow the WTP staff t
Question: I have a set of oil batteries, each of which has a standard set of values representing the pump and tank information. I would like to represent this information in a summary table with one row of data for each battery. We area adding new batteries on an ongoing bases and would like the table to be automatically updated with data from these new batteries.
Question from a customer - i.e. Site1 has 2 booster pumps and site2 only has 1, however my tree has the possibility for handling up to 4. Would disabling the two unused booster pumps tags in these instances count towards the used tag count?
Here is a question I fielded recently:
"How can we prevent SCADA operators from accessing the Windows® Operation System of a PC running a VTScada application?"
Can one push data to REST APIs provided by cloud based machine learning/big data analytics platforms? Do you provide a REST API so one can push to your system. I am currently using http://infiniteautomation.com/ and combination of MEAN (MangoDB, Express, AngularJS, NodeJS based solution to capture low throughput data from battery operated devices on a mesh network.
