IoT & Connectivity

Hi,    I am Rynaldi. I have a B&R PLC running an OPC-UA Server and am trying to connect it somehow to Thingworx. What is the possible way to do this actually? I've read several posts in the forums but they are mentioning different methods, such as using the OPC UA Client from the marketplace (which somehow I couldn't find anymore in the marketplace), using Kepware Server, using KepServerEx. So I'm confused what is the latest method to communicate with an OPC UA server running in a PLC actually? I actually have access to the Thingworx Manufacturing Apps as well. Would that be any help for the OPC UA communication?   Later, I want to use this information in the Vuforia Studio actually. The idea is to get the real information from collected by the PLC and present this information in the AR Experience designed in Vuforia Studio.    I would appreciate any help 🙂   Best regards,   Rynaldi Maydrian Lauren

I am using Thingworx for Manufacturing App. I configured a workflow using Workflow Builder, and added a User Task. I configured PTC.BPE.BusinessProcessNotifier with correct mail server settings, and also PTC.BPE.UserTaskHelper according to help at http://support.ptc.com/cs/help/thingworx_hc/converge_6.5_hc/index.jspx?id=Converge_BPCreate&action=show. Then I duplicated a mashup from PTC.BPE.UserTaskPanel. The problem is I didn't receive any mail notification when workflow stopped at the User Task showing In Progress. I can change the workflow state from thingworx workflow management web page. What could be the reason?

Hello,   Currently I´m facing some issues writing a custom Java Extension that has a service with a parameter of type InfoTable. The Service parameter is annotated like this: @ThingworxServiceParameter(name = "param", description = "", baseType = "INFOTABLE", aspects = {"isEntityDataShape:true", "dataShape:TestDataShape" }) InfoTable param   Here the baseType is set to "InfoTable" and in the aspects array a DataShape is pointed that exists on the ThingWorx platform.   When I try to execute the Service interactively and want to enter the parameter values I get the following message:  I am using ThingWorx 8.4.5-b102 and I am pretty sure this has been working with ThingWorx 7.4.   Has anybody any adivce or can reproduce this issue?   Thanks, Keijo

Hi,   I am using the Java sdk to connect to the TW server via ConnectedThingsClient. I need to dynamically create Things, and add properties to them. For this I'm doing -   client.invokeService(Resources, "EntityServices", "CreateThing", inputCollection, 3000);client.invokeService(Things, "EnableThing", "<thingName>", new Vc(), 3000);client.invokeService(Things, "RestartThing", "<thingName>", new Vc(), 3000);  The enableThing  service call returns an infotable with row containing enabled = false. Even after the restart call, the thing is still disabled. I have tried to restart the client connection in between 2nd and 3rd invoke call.   If I do the same set of actions via REST apis, for the same credentials, it works.    What might be going wrong with the java calls? Any pointers will be appreciated!   Regards, Vaishnavee

Hi,   Our environment is Thingworx 8.5.2 with Manufacturing Apps 8.5.2.   After creating 3 new equipment types, and creating new equipments of these types everything was working ok. But we made an export to import the manufacturing apps configuración to another server with the same environment and it doesn't work.  When a click on the configuracion menu, I can see my equipments tree but when I try to access to the status configuration page, I can't see the status definition table (see status-configuration.png). I also try to create a new equipment but previously created equipment types are not in the Type list, I only can see the default equipment types: site, line and asset.   I didn't get any error in the import process. It seems like my new 3 equipment types doesn't exist in the new server but they are present in the PTC.Factory.C_LaunchPointConfigurationThing_8.5.2_00 and the equipment things exist as I can see my equipments tree.   In the logs I

Hi,  My customer has a requirement,  the user can manage one or more factories.  If a user manage multiple factories then the user can select which factories he need to login in the login page, otherwise he don't need to choose factory .  The home mashup page of different factory may be different or same .  So the login process would be :  choose factory in login page  -> check user's authorization of the  factory -> lookup the factory's home mashup ->  open the home mashup of the factory login without choosing factory ->  find the user's factory -> lookup the factory's home mashup ->  open the home mashup of the factory   I have lots of questions here:  In the login page, how to get the factory list before login in ?  It has to be hard coded list ? How to send the factory selected in login page to the ThingWorx server ?  Where can I implement the logic of  checking authorization of use

Can I change the displayName from this service result?
