Hi all,

I've got a couple servers running iFIX 5.5 successfully configured and tested for failover, but I need some indicator that the failover event happened. Does anyone know how to configure an alarm tag to trigger when a failover occurs?

Thanks

Alarmcast protocol error

$

I am setting up a fresh Cimplicity 8.2 system with alarmcast. The alarmcast gateway is on the main HMI machine and the Alarmcast server and admin programs are on a separate machine (along with global view) I believe I have alarm cast admin and alarm cast alarm administration done correctly from the pdf guides. gateway is talking, but no alarms are being sent from the alarm cast server. The Alarm cast server logs acknowledge the receipt of the alarms from the gateway but the log shows a unknown/protocol error.

Accessing historian v5 from SQL server 2012

Hello

Are there any known issues accessing historian from sql server 2012. I have set up a linked server and when I try to run a query against it I get the following error message.

Quote:

A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The specified network name is no longer available.)
Looking in the event history it appears to kill the sql service and then restart it.

I have ran the same query on an sql server 2005 box and it works fine.

We have a scale terminal (IND131) with IP address. That terminal can translate ASCII codes with information. We can parse it using our software...
Is it possible to get information directly from IND using COMM_REQ?


If so, please give me a direction where to dig...


P.S. There is no Modbus.

iFIX+Proficy_Historian+Classic_Historian

Hi everyone,

I have a complex question that I can't solve...

In my computer I have installed iFIX5.5 and Classic Historian. In a remote Server I have installed Proficy Historian 5.0.

My client ask me to historize the Blocks on the remote Server using Proficy Historian, and if the communication fails, the Classic Historian is still historizing on the local computer.

The first question is: I know how to historize Blocks of the Database using Proficy Historian on the local computer, but how do I define that the Historian is on the remote Server? Do I have to install the OPC collector on the local computer?

And secondly: I have historizing the Classic Historian on the local computer, so when the communication with the remote Server fails, it still historize. But is there a way to synchronize the data collected with the Proficy Historian automatically? Or do I have to migrate the data manually?


Thanks a lot for your time,
Raul

Cimplicity 8.1 - Trend control displays nothing

$

Dear all!

We have an issue about trend control. We use MS sql for data logging. Several viewers are connected to the cimplicity server. On our screens we use cimplicity trend control for displaying logged data. On some of the viewers the control simply does not show the added lines, just '***' . The ODBC connection works, because on the same screen I can query other data from the same database, but different table. And certainly the point acquired from the cimp server also work.

We add 'Logged' points by script, but I tried to add lines manually by the popup menu - results are the same.

Other viewers show the corresponding trend correctly. We have also an error message when adding points to the trend, but this message comes up both in the correct and the faulty viewers' log, so I do not know if this is connected to the trend issue.

Error msg:
Process:CV18c0
Procedure:CV18c0
Reference:1975519347
Message:Unknown Alarm Manager: AMRP
Source:COR_AMARU_ERR
Code: 1010

Porting IC2X ->IC2000 -> CIMPLICITY

I've just started a project to upgrade a system from IC2X to Cimplicity. I'm assuming that this has to be done by first converting the project IC2000(?). Does anyone know if a) that's the best route and b) how do I go about doing such a thing? I've fouind a few mentions of converting IC2000 to Cimplicity on these forums but all the links and information seem to be dead.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Web Browser object keeps shrinking

Hello!
I am using a Microsoft Web Browser OLE object on my screen to display different http web pages inside the object. I have buttons on the screen that call the web browser object to run the script that opens the web page in the web browser object. The problem is every time I click the button the web browser object shrinks & disapperas if I keep clicking same or other buttons. Here's the script I am using to open the webpage:

Private cimOleObj As ShDocVw.IWebBrowser2

Sub Quality Report()
cimOleObj.Navigate "http://......./Quality_Report.php?Restrict_Navigation=True"
End Sub


(I tried resizing it on screen open using 'cimOleObject.Width = ...' & 'cimOleObject.Height = ...' but it still doesnt work)

I have similar scripts for buttons like Production Summary, etc. The webpages open fine in Web Browser object but why does the object shrink after each click? I dont have any other animation that would do this to the object. Help!!

Could not load an object because it is not available on this machine

Hi All
Recently our IT department did an upgrade to our work enterprise pc's which caused an error on our iFix clients. These clients are used without an iFix key, simply to print an Historian trend once a day and then shutdown.
The error upon opening of Workspace was 'License Information for This Component Not Found. You do not have an Appropriate License To Use This Functionality in The design Environment'
I have now fixed this error.
However during the course of fixing this error I have now created another error which reads 'Could not load an object because it is not available on this machine'.
This happened directly after I uninstalled iFix, iHistorian and deleted the destination folders and then re-installed iFix.
The error appears when Workspace opens and first appeared before I restored a project.
I am working with iFix 5.1
I have tried the resolutions listed in KB13613 and KB13666 but to no avail.
Any advice on this issue would be greatly appreciated
Regards
Wayne
