Rising Event with user defined Event type

[zzz]

Case Setup:
– Create a input channel say 60000 , set formula to CnlVal;Val()>10?200:1
– Create a event trigger in AutoControl, say to send a email on Channel 60000, any event.
– In Generator, create a event set channel to 60000, trigger works, got a email.
– In Generator, set a data point channel=60000, value=200, state=1, Nothing happend
– In Generator, set a data point channel=60000, value=200, state=200 Nothing happend

Why the latter 2 steps can’t triger any event on channel 60000?

Formula looks invalid. Try: CnlVal; CnlVal>10?200:1
Val() is the value that is already in the channel.

This is a Calcuated channel. Not sure why can’t Val() be used?

Tried CnlVal; CnlVal>10?200:1 with both Calculated Real and Real none worked for the previously mentioned latter 2 cases.

The channel should be of the Real type. After setting a correct channel type, use Generator to check how the formula works.

As said previously, I tried both CalcReal and Real for

– In Generator, set a data point channel=60000, value=200, state=1, Nothing happend
– In Generator, set a data point channel=60000, value=200, state=200 Nothing happend

.

Previous to this test case,
I have a calculated channel configured similarly. as SomeFormula(CnlVal);Val()>905? 200:1
The customized event type id=200, color=green.
I can see the numbers turn to green in WebStation table number display.
But the event type trigger in Auto Control is never fired.
Since I can’t open the any log under Server/Archive/ from RSAdmin,
I was unable to verify if the event has fired.
But the test case involving Generator seems to suggest AutoControl didn’t pick up customized eventtype.

Since I can’t open the any log under Server/Archive/ from RSAdmin

You can open logs from text files in any time.

After sending a new value using Generator, check the actual channel data
Administrator – Instances – Default – Server – Archive – Current Data

If the channel data differs from the expected, let me know what channel data was expected and what is the actual result.

Since I can’t open the any log under Server/Archive/ from RSAdmin

If you mean current or historical data, use ScadaDataTest utility.

[Mikhail]

Open data files remotely is not a good solution, because they might be too big. I think we should add a web viewer that displays raw data.

[Mikhail]

Before checking Auto Control Module, we need to know what channel values and statuses are really calculated.
