I agree with@CodeAssist logs should be checked. My guess is a RAM or MEMORY issue. Are you doing any data logging with a local datastore? Running out memory will cause these issues especially when there isn't a limit set on the storage / row limit in the DB. ------------------------------ Heath - ...

Thanks Darren. Good to know. There are few objects in the Power Library set to something other than "None" for the Move Target Property. I changed this one and it seemed to do the trick for the WebPresentation Engine. However I haven't fully tested it yet with a live PM5000 yet. ------------------------------ ...

I have experienced the same issue 2 months ago. However, I only experienced this issue when using the WEB Presentation Engine. The Native Presentation Engine worked as expected. I communicated the issues to Kelly Kunowski the Product Manager for the Power Monitor 5000 and she sent the issue to the Faceplate ...

Hey all, Should Engage have more discussion areas? For example ASEM Hardware, Non Asem Hardware, Controllers and IO etc. Was going to post something I discovered today on a 6300P-EW1 Panel PC and sadly there was no appropriate home for this. Thoughts? ------------------------------ Heath ...

All, I know there are some posts leading around this subject, but I wanted to ask the community. My question is if using the embedded INfluxDB or embedded MYSQL in an Optix device like an OptixEdge, Embedded Edge Compute or Optix Panel, would external tools like Grafana be able to access the ...

One thing you can do is leverage the SYSTEM Object. The System object variables can be exposed or displayed in the runtime. By adding it into an Optix project for a 1756 EEC, OptixEdge or Optix Panel you will get access quickly to what's happening while your device is running. ...

@Retzlaff There is the FTRA Widget that can be leveraged that has the Remote Connection Count Variable that will go active if a remote connection is active. This could leverage to have a popup happen to display the warning. You also initiate a text box in the pop up where you could enter in a message ...

I have also added the System Property to some of these type projects where resources were a concern like this happens. The System object will expose a lot of details of what's going on inside of a Panel, Optix Edge or Embedded Edge Compute. From there you can datalog or display the resources while the ...

I had a similar issue the other day where the custom keyboard wouldn't appear via the web presentation engine. It worked initially but after few modifications it did not. I cleared the web browsers cookies and cache and it was back popping up again. -------------------------------------------

Just wanted to throw this out to the community. Has anyone attempted using Optix with an Automation Direct (Click PLC) or any other controller manufacturer that uses Ethernet IP? Basically would Optix support a controller that has a non RA Ethernet IP interface? Was curious if the OPTIX RA Ethernet IP ...
