Embedded mimic does not work

Mimics – lang RU

You should translate this document. It is strange that there is no documentation in English in the folder.

Test_TextFace

An example of one of the communication options for the exported FacePlate property based on Simulator channel 103.

Hi,

Thanks! I’ll take a look at it.
It’ll bring back memories of my primary school days, when I was learning Russian. 🙂

[manjey73]

Drop these memories and keep learning Russian 🙂
Moreover, in Russian, something from the documentation appears faster.

Unfortunately, it is not a very convenient document, there is no way to copy text from a pdf and send it to an online translator. 🙁

What is the purpose of <DataSource>Tri</DataSource>?

[manjey73]

This is the Channel 103 tag code in the Simulator

Hi,

When a frame uses another origin (localhost:5000) than the main website (localhost:10008) is is usually blocked by a web browser according to security reasons. Try using the same host and port for frames.

I think @Mikhail will not scold much, but on the contrary, he will correct that he translated the online translator incorrectly. 🙂

As far as I know, you just need one network, ports are not important. This is how I connected to devices with virtual network addresses, but I had to be a client of this network.

[oley]

Thanks, I will try with the same address/url and evtl. port.

I would appreciate any additional guidance.
The example with the text on a faceplate was just a simple illustration of my problem.
My faceplates contain several images that represent the status of the switches: on, off, and undefined.
In the faceplate, I define an input channel (and sometimes an output channel for a command), and in the conditions, I have set the appropriate images for the channel values.

If I’m not mistaken, but the conditions are not transmitted to the Image installed in faceplate.

If it is not related to the frame issue, please create a new topic.

Hi Mikhail,

I can, of course, create a new topic, but this topic was related to embedded faceplates in mimics diagrams and the frame issue came because it was present in my screenshots.
The real problem now is a faceplate with multiple dynamic images embedded in a mimic diagram.

[Mikhail]

Hi,
Are the images loaded from the external web URL? If so, it would be better to include them into the faceplate file.
