IoT & Connectivity

Hello,     I need to store tags values from KEPServerEX in SQLite database.     How can I do this?    Thanks in advance. Regards

Anyone has experiences in connecting with IMM through Euromap 77 by using OPC-UA client driver?From what I know Euromap77 is OPC-UA based, so I suppose we can use OPC-UA client driver to collect data. And if don't use OPC-UA client driver, is there anyway to connect through Euromap 77?

About connecting Toyo IMM, when I read document of Euromap63, there is a block diagram that display the connection which tells Machine in Plant floor --> Share Folder--> OPC Server.Please verify me if OPC Server right here is Kepware or maybe some other OPC Server? Besides, I want to ask anyone who has already connected through this way that how the Machine in Plant Floor can attach/export their files to the share folder in order to the response when Kepware gives the request? Will It need to be required extra coding or maybe involved the Toyo IT support to do this? Or need IoT gateway?

It appears that we are encountering difficulties when incorporating MTConnect devices into our system. These devices appear to be consuming significantly more memory compared to other devices. Specifically, after adding 23 MTConnect devices, Kepware crashes upon reaching the memory usage limit. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Issue: Audio player widget is not playing if we pass the URL input from serviceIssue Description: In audio player widget there is input property called URL for that URL am passing the input from service but it is not playing  the audio. Note: If we give the default value for the URL it is working only when we pass from the service the widget is not playing the audio from the output of the URL which is coming form the service Thing Worx version.8.5.6

Please check my validator code even though i am giving it true input but still it is not working and not returning me true.    

Hello Community,I am getting the data in an infotable but i am unable to read it.  const SERVICENAME = "getPieChartDataOnMashup"; logger.info(me.name + " :: " + SERVICENAME + " :: Start Service"); let projectName = me.name.match(/^[^.]*/)[0]; let ab; try { ab = Things["V2.MYSQLDatabaseController"].SQLQuery_GetEntriesForPieChart({ lineName: lineName, StartDate:startDate, EndDate:endDate }); logger.info(ab.rows[0]); } catch (e) { logger.error("There is an error in service getPieChartDataOnMashup DataBase service.SQLQuery_GetEntriesForPieChart " + e); } let result = ab; the below pic is for logger ab.rows[0] the below is the output of the service. i am unable to read in logger ioEntries like ab.rows[0].ioEntries the values is 0 but i am getting undefined. Why? i am getting this data from SQL query and i have set the ouput as an infotable with two fields of number.   

Hi, I would like to refresh the master. But I do not see a refresh property for master-mashup. Can anyone specify how I could refresh the master? Thanks,Su

Hello,Good Morning, I am trying to use pie chart widget in thingworx mashup, but not able to achieve the output. I have a service which has infotable as an output(Service.png). I have bound all data of that service to pie-chart widget(Binding.png) in thingworx mashup. After viewing the mashup it says no data in mashup(Mashup.png). I have attached the reference images, can anyone help me out with the same. Thanks in Advance. Regards,Aditya Gupta 

Hi everyone, I am currently trying to export data to CSV in which I have collected in my LineChart from my mashup. I have seen the following article: Solved: Re: How to Export a Custom Excel file from Thingwo... - PTC Community. In which shows how to import CSV files but I am trying to export that data out and if its possible can is there a way to export in 30 minute intervals?I would be exporting data from a thing in thingworx from a thing group that updates that chart if that information is helpful. I'm using ThingWorx 9.3.5  

Hi all, On the menu bar widget, the logo does not expand after I've expanded the bar.(See the images)ExpandedNot expanded How can I resize the footer icon as the bar gets resized? Thank you.

Hi~ all.  I'm Kim.  I'm inquiring because there is a function I need while setting KepwareExServer up.How can i convert decimal value to ascii Character with kepwareEx Server?PLC only send string value by ascii code(ASCII numbers to srting.)for example value 65 to 'A' or 065066 to 'AB' I would like to thank you in advance.

When a user logs into the ThingWorx application, I need to retrieve their user category from the application database. Based on the user's category, specific menu items in ThingWorx should be shown or hidden. Could you please guide me through the steps to implement this?   For example, if user1 logs in, Menu--> Item1---> SubItem1, Item2--->SubItem2, Item3--->SubItem3 to be shown. if user2 logs in, Menu-->Item1-->SubItem1, Item3---> SubItem3 to be shown.   Thank you.

Hi,What I am trying to do is, when I click on close button it should close the same mashup tab.Is there any way to do it? 

Good day,I'am currently working on project that involves connecting 2 SCADA systems/servers (Cimplicity software from GE) with 5 Allen-Bradley PLCs (1x 1756-L85E, 4x 1756-L81E) via OPC-UA. Setup; There are 2 SCADA servers (A and B), they both have Cimplicity running with redundancy setup A=Master, B=Backup. Each server has KEPServerEX 6 installed on it with the same connection setup.PLCs: There is the main PLC L85E that takes care of almost everything and 4 smaller once (L81E) for some fast calculations and motions.The biggest problem that I have now is with the communication with the main PLC. The smaller once have no problems. Just having one server running gives us problems. Kepserver is losing it's connection with the main PLC almost every time we are doing  online changes in the PLC logic (Socket error occurred receiving data. Error=10054,..An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host). Second problem is that it takes 2-5 seconds to see something ch

Hello,everyone!How to quickly add properties in thingshape? 

I uploaded a time series dataset setting the temporal op type to a field containing a ISO parsed datetime and setting the type of this column as a DateTime. I took caution to set the time sampling interval to the correct number of miliseconds (every row was a 1 minute delta so samplig was 60,000) I then trained a time series model with this dataset. No issues there. Now when I try to get a prediction I get the following message:Error executing service predWaterFlowDatetime Message :: Could not process request: [For input string: "2016-03-08T02:00:00.000Z" I'm basing my code and data on this tutorial: https://community.ptc.com/t5/IoT-Tips/TWX-Analytics-How-to-Build-and-Operationalize-a-Time-Series/ta-p/818275 In this tutorial they use a simple integer as the temporal field, I got that working no problem. I've now adapted the code, datashape, dataset metadata and model to use this datetime typed column as the temporal field, but something is not working. I've tri

Hi everyone, I would like to have a breadcrumb functionality that shows me the hierarchy of the mashup that I am currently on. e.g., Main menu item/sub menu item/sub-sub menu item.What I want to achieve is similar to what is highlighted in yellow on the first screenshot below:  My service is as follows let result = Resources["InfoTableFunctions"].CreateInfoTableFromDataShape({infoTableName: "InfoTable",dataShapeName: "BreadCrumb_DS"});if(Data){for(let i=0; i<Data.length; i++){let row = Data[i];if(row.linkDestination){let newEntry = {DisplayField: row.title, // STRINGTypeField: row.TypeField, // STRINGURLField: row.linkDestination, // STRINGMashupNameField: row.MashupNameField // STRING};result.AddRow(newEntry);}}} The Data input here is the service output that goes to the menu bar widget. I did this because the menu bar widget has no selectedRows or data coming out from it that I can use to bind to my breadcrump widget. Has anyone ever overcame this issue?&n

Hello, I think I need some help configuring some Datalogger Trigger settings. I have a set of tags that I wish to record during a specific operation where the frequency of the logged data should match whenever the value of a single monitor tag changes. I set up a condition-based trigger where under the general settings I configured the start and stop logging conditions to reflect the specific operation during which I wish to record data, and this behaves as expected. Since I only care about logging data when the value of a single tag changes, under the Logging Conditions menu, I set the 'Log on Static Interval' field to No and 'Log on Data Change' field to Yes. I set the Monitor Item ID to the tag whose value I want to drive the data logging, set the Monitor Item Update Rate to 1000 milliseconds (I am fine with checking the monitor tag's value once a second), and make sure there is no deadband type (because I wish to log any value change). And somehow, when I check my databas

I created a Thing Template extension using the Java SDK9.5.0, set the configuration parameters, and wanted to be able to read the configuration parameters to update some of the Template's property values,Thingworx always fails. How do I use the initialization method correctly to update properties or how to use this method correctly.@Overrideprotected void initializeThing(ContextType contextType) throws Exception {// TODO Auto-generated method stubsuper.initializeThing(contextType);}

Hi , Is there a connector/APIs/Integration available for Thingworx to connect to ECS off the shelf MES tool?Is there a study or document please do share. thanks,John

Hi all. I'd like to set up a custom message handler on Thingworx 9.4.3 and I'd like to use telegram. Wondering if anyone has done this before or can provide me with steps to achieving this.  Thanks 

Looking to make use of the service: GetUserRecipientsOfEvent I am unsure of the input's and what to populate them with. I am expecting to get a list of users from the Test trigger that I've created. Here is the trigger: I've followed this guide to get the custom handler working to a point where I am able to see that the handler is triggered from logging inside the service. I am aware this this guide is for thingworx apps and I am using foundation but it does work. Working with Thingworx 9.4.4. Now I would like to get it fully working by retrieving the list of recipients and then referencing them so that I can actually notify the users included in the recipient list. Hoping someone here has used this service and can point me in the correct direction. 

The system user can become a vital point for properly yet conveniently securing your application.From the ThingWorx helpcenter:The system user is a system object in ThingWorx. With the System User, if a service is called from within a service or subscription (a wrapped service call), and the System User is permitted to execute the service, the service will be permitted to execute regardless of the User who initially triggered the sequence of events, scripts, or services. http://support.ptc.com/cs/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_7.0_hc/index.jspx?id=SystemUser&action=showA few important notes to remember:It is not possible to log in as a system userAdding a system user to the Administrators group will not grant it the administrator permissionsAdding a system user to the Everyone organization will not grant it the same visibilityAs an option, one of the posts on our community provides a script to assign all of the permissions to the system user for a one time set up:https://community.thi
