    Hello,

    Is there a way to customize the charts in chart pro to display waveforms and bar charts instead of plot lines? Ive tried modifying the XML but I’m not sure if the functionality extends that far.

    Ideally I’m looking to display a waveform on one chart and harmonics on a second chart. Is this achievable with Chart Pro, or is there alternative methods that can be implemented within Rapid Scada via built in methods or other plotting/chart modules?

    Many Thanks

    Dean

    Hello Dean,

    Char and Chart Pro displays only linear diagrams. You can integrate Grafana to draw various charts.
    For Rapid SCADA 5 use this link.
    Rapid SCADA 6 integrates with Grafana via a database.

    Hello Mikhail,

    The provided link worked perfectly. gave me exactly what I was looking for. Thankyou.

    On a similar topic, is it possible to interface a python program with the data collected by Rapid SCADA? Either a way to imbed it into the dashboard in a similar fashion as Grafana or link the database to the python program / export the data to it? I would like to implement a machine learning algorithm with the collected data if possible.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks

    Hello again,

    Just to add, do you know if anyone has interfaced MatLab with Rapid SCADA for data analysis, or if you think it could be possible?

    Many thanks

    Hello Dean,

    You can integrate with Rapid SCADA in different ways:
    1. Embed external web application as a frame into Rapid SCADA web interface.
    2. Use API from client JavaScript or from another application.
    3. Use TCP protocol to interact with ScadaServer app.
    4. Develop your own module using C#.

    1, 2 and 3 items are language independent.
    I have no info about MatLab. What interfaces does it support?

    Hello Mikhail,

    Thankyou for that information. I will explore further into those options and if I get stuck I will let you know.

    I doesn’t matter about MatLab, I wont be pursuing that at this stage anymore.

    On the original subject concerning Grafana, is it possible to expose the current data collected by Rapid SCADA to Grafana or is it only possible to get the data stored every 60 seconds? I’m looking to transfer values that represent a sinusoidal waveform, so a real-time data transfer if possible.

    Thanks

    Dean

    Hello,

    Grafana needs to retrieve historical data from an archive. You could put data into a historical archive with the required period.
