Hello,

Can we see the communication device on Linux Version?

Could you clarify the question?

[Mikhail]

The driver works with current data. If you mean that the Timestamp field in JSON specifies historical data (in the past), the driver should be modernized.

[Mikhail]

Hello,

1. Probably, support of certificates hasn’t been implemented yet by MQTT client communication channel.

2. Please check this example. The JS file should be located in the Communicator configuration directory in the project. You should enable JS and specify the file and subitems in the Advanced Parameters of the subscription.

I/O pins are available for SCADA if the PLC provides some standard communication bus. It can be built-in MQTT broker or OPC UA server. In short, likely I/O will be available, but indirectly.

I wrote that in general, related to Pigeon RB700. For Raspberry, I suggest to try the driver developed by @manjey73

Hello,

How do you think about my solution?

In general, it’s OK. However, Raspberry has limited temperature range, and requires reliable power supply.

How will I configure communicators and Agents?

Technical support can answer particular questions. In short, Communicators should refer to the main server’s IP. May be Agents need to work using reverse connection to the main Agent.
If needed, we provide online training to learn how to configure Rapid SCADA.
Also, I recommend Extended support, because distributed systems are more complex comparing with local systems.

Hi,

This error means that the events already exist in the database. For some reason you have exported the same events again.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

The Second Color and Back Color columns were made for future use. Currently, only Main Color is available.

[Mikhail]

Hello,

Please provide screenshots of the settings and the error.

[Mikhail]

Hello,

1. The installation instructions are the same.

2. It depends.
RS-232/485 and ethernet, yes.
I/O pins are available for SCADA if the PLC provides some standard communication bus. It can be built-in MQTT broker or OPC UA server. In short, likely I/O will be available, but indirectly.

3. It’s OK. Required archive size can be calculated.

Probably, secret keys have invalid format. Generate new secret keys by opening Server – General Options – Listener Options – Generate button

Hi Matt,
We plan to add the examples of custom pages later. Currently, please use the existing plugins to copy source code. PlgMain plugin implements table views that retrieve current, historical data and events using Java Script API.

Hello,
Your extension should modify the project object. Please check the project classes here. Two existing extensions create devices and channels: ExtCommConfig and ExtWirenBoard. Use them as examples.

[Mikhail]

Hello,
1. I suggest to use Linux-based PLCs for warehouses to run SCADA.
2. Install Rapid SCADA on each Linux-based PLC.
2.1. If internet connection is stable, install only Communicator and Agent.
2.2. If internet connection is unstable and standalone operating is required, install Server + Rapid Gate, Communicator, Webstation and Agent.
3. Install Rapid SCADA on the main server.
4. Use a single project to configure all Rapid SCADA instances.
5. Use Rapid SCADA version 6.

However, DB Export module supports 2 commands:

Export data for a period:

cmd=ExportArchive
startDT=2022-12-23 10:00:00
endDT=2022-12-23 11:00:00

Clear task queue:
cmd=ClearTaskQueue

You can run the above commands by a button. If needed, I can provide more info how to do that.

Hello,
DB Export module exports data permanently. There is no feature to start and stop the export process.
DB Import driver allows to execute SQL by a command. It’s possible to use a button to execute a command.
