Hello,

the text alignement center don’t work

To center text horizontally, set a fixed text width.

Play with the TextFormat and Text properties of an event.

Hi,
> is there a specification of the dat file format?
Yes. Please search in Additional documentation

> How to export complete historian data to csv?
Use the utilities.

A device tag is not null event if it is not bound to a channel.
You should initialize device tags in the driver logic in the InitDeviceTags method.
According to your first message, you already have device tags. For tests, try DeviceTags[0]

[Mikhail]

I suggest to use DAT and PostgreSQL archives in parallel. In that case, you have 2 copies of data, fast performance when read DAT format, flexibility when read using SQL.

Hi,

Is it possible to transfer historical data to the database from the dat archive?

There is no direct converter. If you decided to develop it, I could help.
Using the existing tools, you can export data to CSV, and then import it back from CSV to Rapid SCADA. When importing, data is sent to the Server service which writes it to the active archives.

[Mikhail]

If the connection is lost, will the data be supplemented in the central SCADA after it is restored?

This feature is implemented by Rapid Gate Module as noted by manjey73.

Hi,

This document can be useful.

I am considering the following architecture: one central SCADA serving all objects and devices, and a miniPC in each object with local SCADA.

Looks good. As far as I know many Rapid SCADA users choose that architecture.

Hi,
An event generated from the driver should be bound to a device tag.
A device tag should be bound to a channel.
Check this example.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

This is a common issue.
You should configure communication line and device according to the manual. Ufter project upload, you will find the required records in the log.

Source code:
CsvExport
CsvImport
ScadaTestClient

Hello,

I mean if we want to make working projects with tags (sensor input reading,plc,visualization,etc) it is not free anymore

Rapid SCADA still free and will remain so.
You can choose from Community (Free), Standard, Enterprise and Embedded Editions.
The comparison of editions is here.

Windows 7 is not supported. It’s too old. For old hardware, it’s better to choose Linux than staying on Windows 7.

I meant that with CsvImport.exe you could write only the data points that are used by other channel to calculate their data. Maybe I misunderstood the task.
I can share the source code of those utilities if it helps.

[Mikhail]

In new mimics, it’s possible to enable and disable components depending on channel value.

If you use old schemes, you can reject commands as written above.
