Please tell more about the modified Scheme Editor with align buttons. Where we can download it?

Hi,
Please check “Scheme Templates” here.
You could create a 1 scheme, use it as a template, and add 4 views in the Interface table (in Administrator). Then use the Dashboard Plugin to display 4 schemes on a one screen.

However, we also think about custom scheme components in the future.

Hi,
Nice.
What VM specifications did you choose?

[Mikhail]

Hi Rich,
Thank you for describing the final solution.
Do you plan to develop a driver for polling data?

[Mikhail]

Hello,

You should open the DLL file properties and unblock the file.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

Please provide screenshots of the module settings and logs which can be found in C:\SCADA\ScadaServer\Log\ModDbExport_*.log

[Mikhail]

Hi,
This subforum is related to OPC issues, not SQL server. Please create a new topic here providing screenshots and log.

Hi,

I don’t want to put it onto my live system

In this case you should develop (or order development) a driver for Rapid SCADA to poll devices using the custom communication protocol.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

1) I suggest at least Windows 10 or Linux.
2) You need static IP address.
3) http://SERVER_IP/scada
If you register your domain name, you could use address like http://rapidscada.net/scada/

Hi Rich,

RS-232 is just a communication interface. The most important is how data is encoded when transmitted.

Do you successfully write values to a text file?
Does the above formula to retrieve data from text file work?

[Mikhail]

The new Rapid SCADA 5.8.4 contains fully redesigned Export to Database module. I recommend to update.

[Mikhail]

Hi,
Module screenshots and logs appreciated.

how does the module knows wich channels to export?

The current version of the module exports all channels. In the next version, a user can specify the channels.

Hello,

This error probably means that the driver version is incompatible with Rapid SCADA version.
Please check Communicator and Administrator versions.
Full error message would be useful, it can be copied from C:\SCADA\ScadaAdmin\Log\ScadaAdmin.err

[Mikhail]

The formula would be something like:

double ReadNum()
{
  try
  {
    string s = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(@"C:\mydata.txt");
    double val;
    return double.TryParse(s, out val) ? val : -1;
  }
  catch
  {
    return -2;
  }
}

Hi,

and writes it into a text file like ‘mydata.txt’, its simple the text file just shows a single number like 22.3

Could I not just write a formula to read this ‘mydata.txt’ file into RapidScada and then return this number from the file

This is not optimal, however, it’s possible if the file contains only 1 number.

Create a formula and use it for an input channel of the Calculated real type.
