Step 6: Create MasterStep 7: Menu NavigationStep 8: Next Steps  Step 6: Create Master Now that we have created our Menu Entity, we can create a Master Mashup to hold a Menu Widget. We'll use the Menu Entity to configure the Menu Widget.   Navigate to Browse > Visualization > Masters.  Click +New.  Leave the defaults and click OK.  In the Name field, type MNWM_Master.If Project is not already set, search for and select PTCDefaultProject.  At the top, click Save.  At the top, click Design.  Add Header Now that we've created the Master Entity, we need to add space for the Menu Widget. At the top-left, click the Layout tab.  Click Add Top. With the new top-section still selected, scroll down in the Layout tab, and select Container Size > Fixed Size. 

Step 5: Add DataStep 6: Replace LicenseStep 7: Next Steps Step 5: Add Data Now that our Mashup's Layout and Widgets have been set, we need to bring in backend data and tie it to those Widgets for display.  We'll make use of Mashup Data Services for this. The first one we'll add will be UserManagementSubsystem > GetUserCount. Ensure that the Data tab in the top-right is active. Click the + icon. In the Entity field, search for and select UserManagementSubsystem. In the Services field, type GetUserCount. Beside the GetUserCount Service, click the right arrow.Under Selected Services, check the box for Execute on Load.  Add LicensingSubsystem > GetCurrentLicenseInfo You're not limited to only pulling information from one Mashup Data Service. We already have User Management's GetUserCount.

GUIDE CONCEPTStep 1: Connectivity Method OptionsStep 2: Next Steps   Guidelines for selecting the optimal method for connecting to ThingWorx   GUIDE CONCEPT   In the world of IoT application development, connectivity refers to the infrastructure and protocols which connect devices to the cloud or network. Edge devices handle the interface between the physical world and the cloud.   ThingWorx provides you with several different tools for connecting to the Thingworx platform.   This guide is designed as an introduction to these tools, and will help you determine which to choose based on your specific requirements.   YOU'LL LEARN HOW TO   Pros and cons of different connection methods The connection method best suited for some typical applications Where to find detailed information about any connection method   NOTE: This guide's content aligns with ThingWorx 9.3.

Step 4: Simulated ModelStep 5: Upload Real World DataStep 6: Real World Signals and Profiles Step 4: Simulated Model Models are primarily used by Analytics Manager (which will be discussed in the next guide), but they can still be used to estimate the accuracy of predictions. When Models are calculated, they inherently withhold a certain amount of data (~20%). The prediction model is then run against the withheld data. This provides a form of "accuracy measure". The withheld-data is selected randomly, so you'll actually get a slightly different model and accuracy measure each time that you create a Model versus the same dataset. On the left, click Analytics Builder > Models. Click New…. In the Model Name field, enter simulated_model.In the Dataset field, select simulated_dataset. Click Submit.After ~60 seconds, the Model Status will change to COMPLETED.  Selec

Step 7: Real World ModelStep 8: Next Steps Step 7: Real World Model We’ll now rerun model creation with the Real World data. Even though Signals and Profiles are possibly telling us that only Sensor 1 is needed, the first Model you’ll create will contain all the data, while the second Model will exclude Sensor 2.We’ll then compare the Models to see which one is going to work the best for predicting engine failures. On the left, click Analytics Builder > Models.Click New…. In the Model Name field, enter vibration_model.In the Dataset field, select vibration_dataset. Click Submit.After ~60 seconds, the Model Status will change to COMPLETED.Select the model that was created in the previous step, i.e. vibration_model.Click View… to open the Model Information page.Note that your model may differ slightly from the picture below, as the automatically-withheld "test"

Hi,   I have issues with thing properties bound to remote Kepware tags. The Kepware tags are connected to OPC-UA endpoints and they all work and are updated as expected in the Quick OPC-UA client. The Industrial Connection status is connected and the bound properties display as healthy. But when the Kepware values change, the properties are not updated. Refreshing the thing properties does nothing, but when I save the thing, then the values are updated. The strange thing is this only happens on some bound tags and not all of them. The applicationkey is created with the admin user for testing purposes right now.   Does anyone have similar experiences? Regards JK

Hello, We are using MFA, and we've configured a connection to Kepserver with an asset and remotely bound properties to Kepserver tags. The connection pushes values every seconds (in monitoring section we view that we receive it every second), and we need to log those values even haven't changed.  Remoted bound properties Data Change Type property is set to Always, but QueryPropertyHistory service does't show a value for every second, only the changes. How can we get it? Thanks in advance

Hey everyone !I am design a good loking ui interface, anyone know if it's possible to change the color/style of the scrollbar in the mashup ?here is a screen of my front-end application : 

Hi All,Do we have any kind of decoders available for ThingWorx to read the MQTT data with Sparkplug Specification? Currently I can read the data in encrypted format but I wanted to get it decrypted and get it as a JSON. Any help to understand this is appreciated. Thanks.

Step 5: PropertiesStep 6: Data ShapesStep 7: Events and Services  Step 5: Properties In the Delivery Truck application, there are three Delivery Truck Things. Each Thing has a number of Properties based on its location, speed, and its deliveries carried out. In this design, when a delivery is made or the truck is no longer moving, the Property values are updated. The deliveryTruck.c helper C file is based on the DeliveryTruck Entities in the Composer. After calling the construct function, there are a number of steps necessary to get going. For the SimpleThing application, there are a number of methods for creating Properties, Events, Services, and Data Shapes for ease of use. Properties can be created in the client or just registered and utilized. In the SimpleThingClient application, Properties are created. In the DeliveryTruckClient application, Properties are bound to their ThingWorx Platform counterpart. Two types of structures are used by the C SDK to defi

Step 8: TasksStep 9: File Transfer ExampleStep 10: Support Other PlatformsStep 11: Next Steps  Step 8: Tasks If you are using the built-in Tasker to drive data collection or other types of repetitive or periodic activities, create a function for the task. Task functions are registered with the Tasker and then called at the rate specified after they are registered. The Tasker is a very simple, cooperative multitasker, so these functions should not take long to return and most certainly must not go into an infinite loop. The signature for a task function is found in [C SDK HOME DIR]/src/utils/twTasker.h. The function is passed a DATETIME value with the current time and a void pointer that is passed into the Tasker when the task is registered. After creating this function, it will need to be registered using the twApi_CreateTask function after the connection is created. Below shows an example of creating this function, registering this function, and how this function c
