Hello,
Currently we have a SCADA system working, but we want to change the IP of the devices in site (Modbus Compatible Device). When we do that, we will have to do port forwarding in the router. Instead of that, is there any way in VTScada to associate the IP Address of the device? in this way, when we change in site the IP Address, we only have to change the value in the SCADA directly inst

Looking for a way to set a value to a Calc tag (set for constant) on a project startup.
I am trying to grant consent for OAUTH 2.0 for VTScada to use an MS365 email account to send and receive. When I click on "Consent" in the Review and Modify Security Settings window, the dialog "Obtain Consent for Grant" opens and just says "Operation Status: Consent Operation Running" but nothing else happens.
No browser window opens as mentioned in

I currently have a kepware tag that is outputting pulses. Each pulse is equivalent to 100 cubic feet. This tag doesnt reset so its constantly going up. Im trying to figure out an accurate way to track these pulses in intervals of hour, day, week, month, year. I started with hour and tried using a history analytics tag which would only show the amount of pulses in the past hour rather than startin
I have a number of widgets which need to reuse in another application.
These widgets contain text objects which are lost somewhere during the import/export process. If it matters, some of those text objects display linked tag properties & others display the results of expressions.
Is this a bug that's still being worked on or is this normal documented behaviour which is causing me is

How can I move the custom types from the customer application layer to the OEM layer so these types c

Is there a way to require an operator notebook entry when setting a value?
I have a bit that is used to bypass a process timer and would like to force the operator to enter a note when they use this. Currently I have an I/O and Calculations tag setup as a Digital[Out] and I'm using the Toggle Button to write a 1 to the bit when pressed.

I'm trying to use an Analog Summary report as an easy way to generate spreadsheets with min/max/avg/total measured hourly flow quantities for a user defined period. The analog summary report is tied to a tag that is written to once per hour with the calculated flow total for that hour.
The average/min/max values are correct and have been verified by comparing them to the "Raw Data" in the HD
We are building up a new application to replace an older SCADA system. We don't want both systems polling the end devices so VT's port tags are all disabled until we are ready to commission.
However, the modbus devices are still getting polled somehow. We see poll failures where there should be zero activity. When failing over to the backup server, we saw tens of thousands of polls attempte
The report tag has its "email settings" where you can manually add or remove recipients of that report.
I'd like to offer more of a self-serve option where someone can enter their email on a page/popup which would then inject an updated recipient list into the report tag or script.
Parameters or expressions aren't allowed in this field and I have yet to figure out how to push a variable
I'm connecting an old Schneider Quantum PLC (311 10 controller ) ( 770 01 NOE card). I've set up the Port driver to read the PLC address 155.177.184.94 Port is 502 (I confirmed from the old HMI we were using that it is the correct port.) For the Driver I set to Modbus compatible device as per the VT Scada recommendations for that connection. I've left everything else standard as nothing looked o
Hi,
I am trying to use a report tag to create a standard report on a 24 hour basis, running the previous 12 hours of tag data into a csv file. I can get that to work.
But I want to further automate the process and I need VTSCADA to format the report in a certain way, so every day I want the current date formatted as DD-MM-YY followed by "raw".
I can get the report to output but it has

Hi Folks,
Regarding the DrawHDV widget, is it possible to edit the options in the time span dropdown menu? I have a request to add 3mins to this as this is a commen time span for one of my customers.
Have done this quickly with a "Plot Data" widget, however it does not have the functionallity of the "DrawHDV".
Thanks!
I read I can turn off the splash screen & I'd like to do that.

Adding NoSplash = 1 did nothing. Neither did adding NoSplash on it's own without the = 1. Can someone whose done this confirm that it actually works? I don't want to bang my head against the wall trying to use something that's broken.

Pictured above, is an interval selection widget i created in version 12.1.25. Selecting each interval writes a value to a single tag via the set value PB. Depending on the which value is set from the button, another expression tag that will be high. As you can see above i have hour selected, this writes the value 2 to TCA_FASH_METER_VIEW. From there i have an expression on TCA_FASH_METER_V

Hello,
I am looking for an example VT-SCADA application. Is there one available for download?
The WeatherApp one I have is apparently quite old and will no longer function in the current release of VT-SCADA.
Any example applications would be appreciated, they do not have to pertain to weather information.

New to VTScada, installed VTScada lite. Just starting out and having trouble making a connection to an SLC 5/05. I am proficient in Proficy ifix and Intouch. I may take the jump into VTSCADA if I can at least make my first connection. I have tried Port 2222 and 44818 and am using PCCC over CIP, Port path [1,0]. What am I missing here?

Hello.
I have an alarm tag that should only cause notifications between 8am-8pm. In other words, be priority 1 during the day, and 3 at night. If the alarm occurs at night, it should notify at 8am.
I duplicated the alarm tag, so that there is a "daytime" (1) alarm and a "nighttime" (3) alarm.
I'm using a trigger tag to disable one or the other based on the trigger.
I have to uncheck

Hi Folks,
Two parts I could do with some help:
I commonly use VTScada to generate PDF charts etc. which it works great at. However occasionally when running a "standard report" it hangs up and the only way to resolve this is to disable the offending report tag and then enable again. I have not found a way to do this without going through the tag browser as the option to change this via th
