Cannot Show Full Text on Web Browser

[kcks66]

Hi Mikhail,

I am working on showing dynamic text on Web browser. Testing script which return string “abcdefghijklmnop”.

The calculated channel with Data Type: ASCII STRING, Data Length: 5, Format: String. However, I got result abcdefgh 5 times instead of abcdefghijklmnop.

Pls advice for correct steps and thank you.

Testing Script:

public string CheckModeSelectText()
{
return “abcdefghijklmnop”;
}

Because you write the first 8 bytes of Ascii into each cell.

The SplitAscii formula must be applied

SplitAscii(()=> CheckModeSelectText())

Hi,
I suggest also test in a table view.
The above advice should work.
If a channel has a length = 5, it is internally 5 channels. A formula is executed for each of them.

Hi manjey73 & Mikhail,

Thanks for your advice. Now I able to show full text.

However, I try to trend the text and download to excel, the text were still truncated, cannot show in full text with ChartPro. My full text is “Manual Mode”.

ChartPro are not designed to work with text arrays of channels.

Hi,
Try using a historical data report for that purpose.
It makes no sense to display string values on graphs.

Hi manjey73 & Mikhail,

I tried download the channel from Historical Data Report, but the result is the same; showing the first 8 characters only.

Elastic report can configure to show full text?
Pls advice and thank you.

I’m afraid nothing will help here. Charts, reports, they operate channels. And here is an array of channels that contains the full text.

What is it for? maybe just operate with numeric values and display text through enumeration ?

Hi manjey73,

I plan to download all the channels with full text with timestamp into excel for further state change analysis.

Hi,

> Elastic report can configure to show full text?
Could you try that using a trial key?

Historical data report should be updated to support long strings.
For now, may be you can put channels containing text parts into different Excel cells, and then join them manually.

Hi Mikhail,

I tried with Elactic Report; the result is the same; showing the first 8 characters only.

Hi,
Thank you for the information. That means that the plugins should be improved in the future.
