Thanks a lot!

[Mikhail]

So, sounds like if I set the channel to a special null archive,
like /dev/null in linux, that channel’s logging is disabled.

I think, this is different.

[Mikhail]

CnlVal contains value that is received from controller.
Val() is a function that retrieves current channel value. Channel values are loaded on start.

Hi,

Thank you for the screenshots.
Please check the following:
1. Is there the trigger for 7239 in ModAutoControl.xml that is located in C:\SCADA\ScadaServer\Config?
2. Is there any mention of the trigger name in C:\SCADA\ScadaServer\Log\ModAutoControl.log ?

What are the versions of SCADA-Server and ModAutoControl.dll?

[Mikhail]

You could create a property like

double MyVar
{
  get
  {
    return Val(101);
  }
  set
  {
    SetVal(101, value);
  }
}

Where 101 is the input channel number. Channel of the calculated real type. Note: I didn’t tested it.

Do you think this would cause a problem in communication?

It is highly possible. If I were you, I would connect another converter instead of PLC and check if data are received from the 1st converter.

If your converter has more than 1 RS-485 port, you can perform this test using the single converter.

Hi,

This feature will be supported in the next generation Rapid SCADA 6. It will be possible to choose for a channel, which archives it is written to.

I saw there is a command type named REQUEST.

By sending the command of the Request type you can perform a device poll out of turn. It is useful when there are many devices and an operator wants to poll a device immediately.

Hi,

To save and load values you can store them into input channels. Current values of input channels are loaded on start.
Otherwise, it’s better to develop a Server module and store values in a file.

[Mikhail]

Will create a release. Thanks.

Hello,
We need to clarify the issue. Could you provide links tp the screenshots of the settings, describe expected and actual behavior?

[Mikhail]

Hi,

Fixed. The problem appeared because the scripts in the editor were not updated. Now these files are replaced in the distributive package without changing version number. You should download it again and update files in
C:\SCADA\ScadaSchemeEditor\Web
C:\SCADA\ScadaWeb\plugins\SchemeEditor

Thank you.

Hello,

Check the command type of the trigger (standard or binary).

To avoid infinite loop:
1. You need to create another output channel for the 2nd command.
2. Or check the command value in the trigger.

[Mikhail]

Hello,

According to the log file, you can connect to the converter, but there is no response from the device.
Check the following:
1. The device ID is correct (is set to 5).
2. RS-485 wires are correct. Try swapping A and B wires.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

I will check it and write here.
Thank you.

[Mikhail]

Good. The fix will be included in the next release. Thank you.
