Timer Accumulator Values

Found In Egroup: Automation Control \ view thread
Alright maybe I am missing something here. I wrote some logic for OEE first in Ladder and was using a RTO to accumulate downtime. All worked as expected and in testing phase I can change the .ACC value. In initial testing I found of course problems with the math errors of dividing by zero. So, I rewrote ...

FT Optix Color Change based on value

Found In Egroup: Advanced Software \ view thread
I am trying to change the color of a box based on a value of a tag. For instance, anything from 0 - 49 would be red, anything 50 -84 yellow, and anything 85 or above green. I tried a key value converter but can't seem to put expressions in it. Maybe I am doing something wrong but wanted to ask first. ...

Ok taking it one step at a time. Point #1 trying to display the Web session Counts. I am not very good with coding yet (DotNet) but trying to learn. I am guessing I would need to display the value activeSessions..... If so, How do I get it exposed to the UI. As I see the other two from the screen ...

So simple I do not know why I did not see that. Probably because I just did the copy and paste buttons and never thought about it. Works as expected after changes.

Optix Clean Screen

I created a dialog to use as my clean screen. On that screen I added button that needs to be held for 10 seconds to close which all works as expected. My problem is when it closes there is a blank screen behind it. I would like it to be the Maintenance main page like in the first picture. Steps I would ...

Still working on this. The one thing I found that on the Optix Panel that is working correctly the following is the system information. Firmware - 6.0.1.165 OS Version - 8922104A.6.1.0.280 on the optix panel that it is not working is the following: Firmware - 6.0.1.168 OS Version - 8922104A.6.1.1.166 ...

Optix Navigation Panel Tab Colors

I don't think this is possible as I did not see anything, but I may have overlooked something. Is there a way to change the color of one tab on the navigation panel? For instance, I have a permissives screen that if they are trying to start and not all permissives are met it would blink that tab red ...

LOL Yes Correct, I copied / created the echart.js file/folder section. And yes I did not download the demo project I did it to my own Optix project. Yes a user defined templeate that I start with for a new project. the .optixz or whatever it is. I am going through different things to check now. ...

I guess I am a little confused when you ask the original or the copied one. Originally, I took the sample from GitHub and copied it into my Optix project (creating a "Template". After testing I downloaded it to the Optix panel, and all worked fine. I then took the "Optix Template" and used it for this ...

That makes sense about the "jenkins". I uploaded the logic script by just adding .docx after it for now. The file did not exist under that directory, however I did add it and still no luck. The funny thing is when I run as emulator on my PC it works fine and displays how it should. Just when I download ...

I used the example from Github for creating a pareto chart and deployed on one optix panel and all works great. I now have deployed it to another panel, of course with updates pointing to the correct items and it does not work. I am seeing some weird references to a path (jenkins), that I take it is ...

I currently have an Optix Panel Standard running connected to an older 1769-L32e (V20) and all looks good, except sometimes it seems like a tag from a toggle button will get stuck high in the PLC. Like it did not see or execute the On Mouse Up Event. I am using a regular button, but it is an exact copy ...

Yep, I have used them, but was wondering if there was a center, so I would not have to move the objects back to where I wanted them. They have all the others, just not center. I am sure there is a reason, just seems weird to me not to have it. @asemlucben do you know if this is a future item or the ...
