Get data from excel into DAT files

[kcks66]

Hi Mikhail,

Good day to you. I want to copy/import my historical data from excel into Rapid SCADA newly created real/calculated real channels. Then save into DAT files. Pls advice for how to do this.

My excel historical sample data:

Hi,

A utility should be developed to import data. Otherwise, only manual input one by one value is available.

Hi Mikhail,

I could try the manual input one by one value method. Pls advice for how to do it?

Thank you.

[Mikhail]

Hi,

Just find in Administrator – Server – Generator. Using Generator you can set any value of any input channel.

Hi Mikhail,

I tried to manual generate value into Archive Data, as below:

I can see the value is generated, as below:

However, I cannot see from the Chart, as below:

Is there anything I missed out? Pls advice and thank you.

Status write “2”

[Mikhail]

Status write “2”

Or any other positive status. All available statuses are listed in the Event types table.

Hi Mikhail & manjey73,

I succeed generated value and show on Chart after Status wrote 2.

There were one value generated at 00:00 and another value generated at 01:00. Is there any possibility to join the line in between them?

Thank you.

Mikhail promised to implement this in the next version of Scada. Now you can try using Grafana for these purposes

[Mikhail]

The is a parameter of Webstation, named Chart Gap. It defined time period that is connected by a line. You should create data points more often than parameter value.

Hi Mikhail,

It is worked after I changed the ChartGap to 4,000 sec.

Hi Mikhail,

I have new question to ask; can I generate value into new DAT file with date earlier than recorded?

https://ibb.co/G0XVw6M

I want to generate value into channels for date 2018 Jan 1 as example.
Thank you.

[manjey73]

If you create the parameter in the same way as you checked this example, the file will be created ? If yes, try using the API

[Mikhail]

Yes. A new file will be created.

Hi Mikhail,

I retry many times by using the Server Generator. But no new file is created. Pls advice and thank you.
