RE: How to connect FactoryTalk Optix to a cloud-hosted FTDS Emulator in FactoryTalk Hub?

I am not sure that I've seen anywhere something like that. I guess that you will need to wait for FTDS desktop (i guess it will use FT echo for simulation) I can imagine it will work like that. Or if you have PLC, use FT Remote Access with VPN option, that could work, I've done it before. ---- ...

Design time netlogic is not visible to "outside" by default so I am not sure can you reach it by any other means. I was doing some rubbish things by writing directly to YAML, but I really advise you NOT to do it. Maybe you can take a look at the here (click me) They made a MCP server by using C# script ...

RE: csv file is not importing in key value convertor

I am not sure, i don't deal with C#, for me it is unknown topic. I rely only on finished and built in functions. For this csv import/export script, you need to drag and drop script from library to the NetLogic folder in left side of FT Optix (Project view tab). Then you need to make one KVC in converter ...

I haven't dealt with this, but I'm intrigued. So if you unlock AOI import tags, set everything up in Optix and then lock AOI again it is working fine? It does not lose connection to those tags? ------------------------------ BR, Mihajlo ------------------------------

RE: FT Optix Data Logger Polling times changed after upgrade project from 1.6.5 to 1.7.3

I don't see anything regarding that in release notes. But I wouldn't be surprised if it was changed, in order to deload CPUs by default settings. Anyway, if you need it at 100ms, it is definitely better to set it yourself than leave to default. EDIT: This happened in 1.7.0 so, maybe in this fix ...

Did you include https://yourLink ? I mean, 99% you did, but.. You must have https://www.rockwellautomation.com/ for example if you'd want to use the link from web browser in Optix. ------------------------------ BR, Mihajlo ------------------------------

I think it is not possible, since it is in-browser thing, already, not just due to Optix. I guess you need to limit that by using IT infrastructure, firewall rules etc.. EDIT: Or maybe you can control the URL by some netlogic script, to make a "whitelist" which would check if the link is on whitelist ...

RE: Compactlogix 5380 (5069) distributed system, which IO?

Yes, for example 5069-IF4IH and 5069-OF4IH. But in Flex5000 you have analog safety card, while in others you don't. Again, it depends on the small details, what do you need, how much space do you have/want to use, wiring. ------------------------------ BR, Mihajlo ------------------------------

It depends how many IOs you have, firmware of you PLC (because of IO platform support). Compact5000, Flex5000 and PointMax should be more or less very similar to same in most of their capabilities. Flex5000 with larger IO density can help to "squeeze" in bigger number of IO. Also wiring of IOs is ...

Hi, Yeah, good try, i've read those, thanks. I've tried few of other manuals but no luck, finding somethin that I would interpret as an clear answer. Those kinda talk more about general safety time and hardware (module) definition settings, not about the safety period VS discrepancy in DCS instruction ...

Hello, I'd like somebody to explain to me how does the Logix work in this case: Lets say I have a Safety task with a period of 20ms, and lets say it takes 3ms to finish that task, and I have a DCS instruction with discrepancy time 110ms. How does the PLC evaluate the 110ms? Does that mean that I ...

Yes, I was drawing on a locked polyline object or locked SVG and it just kept going there as a child, took me a while because I wasn't even able to see that it was drawn sometimes, because of the colors, then I'd unlock the parent object and see that i have XYZ objects hidden in there because I was thinking ...

Thanks for the reply. For me, it seems pretty unnaturally since I've locked the element so I'd expect that it is not being able to change, add children and other things, lets say that I'd expect to have a behaviour of "background" from FT View ME. But ok, at least I know what to expect now. Also, ...

Hi, I am using a SVG picture as a background of my screen. When I try to draw some line/polyline it gets assigned to the SVG picture as a child object, even if the SVG itself is locked? Is this normal? How to bypass this behaviour? I need to draw on SVG as it is "static" background for me, so ...
