IoT & Connectivity

Dear community,another very basic question from me;if I want to "execute" a tag which basically just sends a hard coded string to an device; how do I do that from the client perspective?I have configured an tag in UCON which sends a string. Furthermore I do not want to periodically send the string; only when the client application wants it.I know I could get data from the client for this tag (for example a '01' ASCII string)  and could use IF-branching in UCON to execute the transmit command if the tag contains the data '01'. But I think I have overlooked something; I feel like there should be a "right"/"easier" way to do that from the client application. I have looked into the documentation but haven't found an satisfying answer yet; please help me.Kind regards   

Hello, I am currently using KepwareEx in conjunction with the DataLogger plugin for recording data from PLCs and CheckWeighers. The process works seamlessly when I log the data to dbo.FrequentReading. However, I'm experiencing issues when trying to log data to Kepware.FrequentReading (Kepware schema instead of dbo schema). Despite setting the default database and schema to Kepware for the user connection, the problem persists. Interestingly, Kepware does recognize the table and allows me to select it, but fails when attempting to write to it. Furthermore, when I try to set the table definition to Kepware.FrequentReading, I receive an error message stating that the table doesn't exist. We make heavy use of schemas within our databases, so it would suck to have to use dbo for the datalogger tables.  I'd appreciate any advice or solutions to this problem.

Hello There, i have an Infotable that contains a nested infotable. Let's call them parent and child infotable. I'm able to add anything to the parent and update if i want. For the child infotable i'm somehow limited. I'm only able to add entries with AddRow() but update is not possible. This is the code i'm using for testing that:  // check if an entry already exist and apply to the variable named project let project = Things["test.outer.DT"].QueryDataTableEntries({ query: { "filters": { "type": "And", "filters": [ { "type": "EQ", "fieldName": "timeStamp", "value": timeStamp }, { "type": "EQ", "fieldName": "position", "value": position } ] } } /* QUERY */ }); // create empty holder for the outer DT let values = Things["test.outer.DT"].CreateValues(); // create empty holder for the inner DT let versionData = DataShapes["test.inner"].CreateValues(); // create empty holder if no entries exist at the inner DT let innerValues = new Object(); // check i

Hi all, I'm facing an issue with Date Time Picker widget that auto converts the picked time (e.g. 03-08-2023 00:00:00 GMT+2) to the GMT 00 Time (e.g. 02-08-2023 22:00:00 GMT 00). And because I'm in Germany this is can be solved by statically adding +2 to the selected datetime, but it has to also check the so called Daylight Save Time that sometimes can affect the time shifting between GMT+2 and GMT+1.  Applying  getTimezoneOffset() won't work because it's already converted directly to GMT 00 (UTC) which means applying getTimezoneOffset() will always return 0. Is there a way to avoid the timezone conversion between the Date Time Picker widget so that if my customers from all over the world select 03.08.2023 00:00:00 on the Date Time Picker widget it will be also understood and processed further as 03.08.2023 00:00:00 GMT 00 no matter where they are, and regardless the Daylight Saving Time that may vary.    

Hello Community, I wanted to set localization on my grids filter hint in 9.3.5, however there doesn't seem to be any way of doing this.Am I missing something or is this just missing functionality? Thanks,Jens

Hello all, So I have been trying to write some HTML to open a popup from the HTML widget.However this has not been going so well. I can easily make a link to "change" the website I am currently in, but can't seem to get it to open as a popup... Here is the HTML string I have tried:var htmlString = '<a href="https://url.com/Thingworx/Runtime/somemashup" ' + 'target="popup" ' + "onclick=\"window.open('https://url.com/Thingworx/Runtime/somemashup', 'popup', 'width=600,height=600'); return false;\">" + "Open Link in Popup" + "</a>"; I have a strong feeling that it might not be possible, so for now I guess I'll try to find a way to use a button or something to trigger a navigation function instead...  Thanks,Jens

I'm attempting to connect HVAC devices to my Kepware server through BacNET, but I'm having issues with the various settings and connectivity. I'm able to mine data directly from a single top-level bacNET device (router), but I can't seem to access child devices connected to the direct device within the network hierarchy, such as an arcNET network.  Direct assistance on this would be greatly appreciated.  I can supply pictures and examples from both kepware, and web applications if needed. Thank you in advance  

Get Started with ThingWorx for IoT Guide Part 1OverviewStep 1: Data ModelStep 2: Create Thing ShapesStep 3: Create Thing TemplateGet Started with ThingWorx for IoT Guide Part 1 Overview This project will introduce you to the principles of ThingWorx Foundation by creating a working web application. Following the steps in this guide, you will create the building blocks of your first application for the Internet of Things (IoT). You will use ThingWorx Composer to create Thing Templates, which are then used to create Things that model the application domain. A simulator is imported to generate time-series data that is saved to a Value Stream. After modeling the application in ThingWorx Composer, you'll use Mashup Builder to create the web application Graphical User Interface (GUI). No coding is required in modeling the application, or in composing the web GUI that displays dynamically-generated data. NOTE: This guide’s content aligns with ThingWorx 9.3. The estimated time to

I am currently using version 9.3.8. My mashup has a "Bar Chart (ptcschartbar)" that is loaded by an infotable containing values with thousands separator and decimal places. The widget has a property - ValuesTooltip - with the value of "BarChartDefaultTooltip" which in my localization table (pt_BR) has the value of "${label}, ${series}: ${value}". How can I change the format of the ${value} field to my language (Example: 123,456.78)? The attached figure shows the value without formatting.ps. In my previous version (9.3.2) I used a "Label Chart" and the tooltip was shown with the correct format (attached figure too).Regards,  

When using other OPC products, like Schneider OFS, we are able to see a list of connected clients, listed by the domain user name which was used to authenticate against the OPC server using DCOM. It is very useful at identifying which clients are currently connected to an OPC server. Kepware does not provide this functionality. The closest seems to be by viewing the _System._OpcClientNames tag using an OPC client, however this does not work when an OPC client doesn't have a name defined, which is usually the case for our OPC clients (Pi, Citect), making it impossible to know which clients are connected to a Kepware OPC server. Whenever I connect via the quick client and view the _System._OpcClientNames tag, I only ever see QuickClient in the list even though there are multiple other clients connected. Does anyone know if there's a way to achieve the above with the functionality currently available in Kepware? Or is this a feature that is simply not possible in Kepware? Curren
