Yes, there are ways to set this up. You can only use IP addresses that are available on your image, by default you have 127.0.0.1 through 127.254.254.254 even though they don't show up as an option. If you only have 1 NIC you can add multiple IP addresses to that NIC. In order to do that you cannot use ...

GLaDOS, SO's were designed to solve a few problems that were rather difficult or impossible to solve previously. One of those is having the context of what the data is from an OEM and being able to collect data with structure (Model) by just pointing to a controller (AutomateShane described this). ...

If you create a new display in FTView and drop the control on the display, set the Batch server name and test run there won't be any scripting on that page. If it works then I would check the existing display for scripting. ------------------------------ D Reinarts ------------------------------

Tomasz, Your log file looks correct. From the batch server you should be able to run batch view and see the recipes. Did you install the new batch view controls on the FTView client and server? ------------------------------ D Reinarts ------------------------------

Tomasz, You may want to the batch logs to see if there is anything in there that might help. If you stop the batch server and delete the current log then start the service there will be less to look through. I would also want to verify the batch server by changing the area model back to the Sampledemo1. ...

Tomasz, Your licensing looks OK. If you are getting an error "No master recipes released to production" it could be a configuration setting where the batch server cannot see the recipe files. In the equipment editor under "Options" then "Server Options" on the "Project Settings" tab, verify "Binary ...

Malueg, I suspect you did see an improvement in performance when going to V12 after doing a compile of global objects. There are additional optimizations in version 14 but it may be helpful to look at the following tech notes. Some items may not apply and many I am sure you already know but it is the ...

Splash, Yes you can just load the time and date functions you want. To get the Process library goto the PCDC (product compatibility and download center). Search for Process Library and select version 4.10.06 and then select the download button. The time and date functions will be in the following folder: ...

Seaton, Both an Insert and an Update are supported. var store = Project.Current.Get ("DataStores/EMDB"); var table = store.Tables.Get ("UDT"); table.Insert(columns, Dvalues); columns is a string array with column names, Dvalues is a two dimensional array of strings (in my case) ...

Tomaz, If you always want the #122 to be zero for all instances of an object you can edit the base global object. To do that right click on the object select edit base object. Once the base object is selected press Control R and then replace #122 with 0 or 1 in your example. Then right click on the ...

Kevin, Your shortcut is not just the IP address it is the complete path to the controller. This information can be displayed by using the Diagnostic Items under your shortcut and selecting @NetworkPath. As an example if your shortcut is called "CLX1" then to get the network path you would add the direct ...

Ahmed, DPI is set in windows, right click on your desktop and select display settings. The DPI setting is just an observation and is why it is larger than you expect. The horizontal and vertical alignment of NavigationPanel1 set to Stretch will be required to scale. Please follow AutomateSHANE's response, ...

Ahmed, Try setting the Horizontal and Vertical Alignment to Stretch in the ScaleLayout1 as well as page_4 and NavigationPanel1. I suspect you also have your dpi set to 125%. Also remember that the height that is available for the panel is less than 1080 as the navigation buttons eat some space, it ...

Ammirati, The ability to write back to a tag was added in V13 to use your code as is will require V13. I tried on a V12 system and got the same error. If you cannot convince the owner to upgrade to V13 it is possible to the same in VBA and have a screen that is open and always updating without ...

Ammirati, I am on V13 but that should not make a difference, not sure what version your laptop is on. The error 80040154 is common and just means that a dll is not registered but your system is not pointing to any class id. At a minimum I would reboot, possible do a repair on the install. Maybe ...

Ammirati, Yes, there are many things you can do in powershell including testing communications to SQL Server. If your concern is weather the alarm server is logging to the database then you can change the following line to work with a local directory. $scriptexecutor = $scriptmanager.GetScriptExecutor(1, ...

Ammirati, I suggest using powershell "server side scripting" with the event detector to check the amount of disk space used in the store and forward folder. The folder size can be written to a tag for an alarm to occur, the size is normally zero but you should verify on your system. The event detector ...
