Proficy Historian - applying groups to Line Chart

$
0
0
Hi,

I started to use Proficy Historian and now I am trying to add Chart Group Files to Line Chart from button but without success.

I used the same code as for standard chart.

On my button for standard chart I had this code:

OpenPicture "History.grf", "", "", ""
CGW_ApplyFileToChart "C:\HMI\DUT\HTR\St1.csv", "MyChart"

Now I just renamed chart name to "LineChart1"

OpenPicture "History.grf", "", "", ""
CGW_ApplyFileToChart "C:\HMI\DUT\HTR\St1.csv", "LineChart1"


Is there any way to achieve this?

Thanks,
M.

Can anyone tell me how I can change the Properties of a DotNet Datagrid Control on a Screen via a Script?
"The Control is System.Windows.Forms.DataGrid"

I can change the properties of an OLE Object ok, but have no experience of controlling DotNet objects.

Quickpanel not showing Decimal Places

Looking for some help! Might be a simple question to answer.

I have a reservoir level with an input out %AI0003 with in a 90/30 Series PLC. I want to show that as a numeric data display on a quickpanel view. I've have used engineering units to scale it, but the number displayed is a single digit.

IE, I want it to show the actual level in meters as 6.25m but it just shows as 6.

Thanks

i would like to ask regarding the comm_req block... because we've migrated a series 90-30 to RX3i that is using a comm_req block for its communication. in the series 90-30 program, it was set to 15. now, according to gfk2224 manual "if you are using a RX3i, task id should be set to 0". how did they came-up with 15 as the set value of the task id? what does that mean? and what is the task id for? thanks!

How to make an Insert into SQL table?

$

Hi,
I have a dedicated remote system that sends to SQL Server 2008 some data.
If I need to send a command to the remote system I must insert an information into a specific table in sql.
I'm using RTIP to show all information to users.
But I a have a functional problem to implement the "Command": I created the statement and it works fine, but I didn't find any object to link the operator order to the statement (only charts, ...). Objects that I thought might be used not allow access to this type of link.
Any suggestions to overcome this difficulty?

Francisco

series 90-30 to RX3i

$

hi there! i would like to ask again about another concern. i am just confused... i have just migrated a series 90-30 plc into a RX3i and this is how i've done it:
1. imported the program from LM90 to proficy 7.0 sim 15
2. migrated the plc family
3. configured the hardware
4. put the corresponding IP addresses
5. edited some of the ladder due to errors shown by the toolbox after the migration of the ladder logic
6. changed the sys id and task id of the comm_req block

we are now in the process of testing. and somehow the system is not working the way it has to. now, my suspect is the task id in the comm_req block. up until now we haven't tried the testing because of limited time and schedule given to us. my question is... did i forgot something to do or steps in the migration process? if "yes", then what is it? and i would appreciate if you can recommend necessary tests to ensure that communication is working. thank you!

Project Restore from .fbk file

$

Hi all,

I developed iFIX application in Windows 7 64-Bit Operatng system. I took the backup using 'Backup & restore Wizard'.

The PC at the customer end is of Windows 7 32-Bit OS. When I restore the backup I should change the path of configured tasks of the SCU since the Default path in 64-Bit OS is C:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\PROFICY\PROFICY IFIX\
and in 32- Bit OS is C:\PROGRAM FILES\PROFICY\PROFICY IFIX\

Is there any procedure to avoid this by doing manual procedure?

Any solution to this problem?

Read Tag from another iFix server

$

Is there a simple way that an iFix 5.5 server can read the value of a tag in another ifix 5.1 server.

The iFix 5.1 server is running stable and I don't really want to alter anything on it. I have a new ifix 5.5 server that I am using to gather electric consumption from various parts of plant so is not critical to the running of the plant and therefore I am happy to play around with it. This server also stores its data to mySQL for long term storage.
What I want to do is read a tag from another iFix server, into a tag on the new database which I can then use to display and store some process data along with the energy consumption figures, in this case a pressure signal for some compressors.
The iFix 5.1 server with the tag already in place has a direct serial connection to the plant I/O so I can't replicate this on the new server.

Thanks in anticipation...

Create custom variable object in Workspace based on standard variable object

I want to add "animatable" properties to the built-in variable object. Currently the variable object has only one animatable property. The "CurrentValue" property. I wish to add the properties "CurrentValue1", CurrentValue2"...."CurrentValueN" and then be able to CONNECT them to FORMAT objects for animation in Workspace Runtime.

Can I create a CLASS object based on the built-in variable object to accomplish this? If so, how would I do this? Any code examples would be much appreciated.

Enable device via node view

$

We have a SCADA Node and a Webspace as View Node.
From the Webspace Node we want to query the MBE Driver to know if a DEVICE is enabled or not. In case a device is disabled, we want to enable it with a Button.

We allready did it in VBA in the SCADA node and its working fine. The problem is when we migrate this solution to a Webspace/View node, the code doesn´t work because it doesn´t aim to the MBE DRIVER. The problem is how is possible to aim to SCADA MBE from a View node to work through an Activex Object from VBA.

One possible solution to Enable/Disable Device, has been to use a DO Tag with !MODE Address, but it doesn´t allow Us to know the actual device state from the Webspace/View Node.

ReplacePic - Requires PictureAlias

$

using V5.5

I have a screen set consisting of a main body and a footer with buttons. I've been swapping pics in the main section using the following code for years now.
Code:

ReplacePicture "newPic", "CurrentPic"
The cFixPicture Initialize section of each pic (except for the footer) contains
Code:

PictureAlias "CurrentPic"
This has been working great for years.

Today we added a header pic. So we now have a header, main and footer.

Next we found that using the same ReplacePicture line of code would alternate replacing the header and the main. One click would replace the main as expected, the next would replace the header which should never happen.

Reviewing code I saw that the footer has a alias so i added an alias of "Header" the Initialize section of the header code fixed it. We tested this over and over and it didn't matter what we called the alias, it just had to have one. Remove it and the behavior returned.

My question is why? the header was never aliased as CurrentPic, ever. Why would the ReplacePicture procedure ever try to replace it?

Only admin should acess Desktop & I dont want any other user to access it. When the login button is clicked, the taskbar is getting visible. Is there any alternative to avoid this?
