ThingWorx

I'm trying to gather the best configuration settings for maximum performance of the out-of-the-box Time Series Chart (TSC) widget.  The goal is to lower the amount of time it takes for the TSC widget to display data lines while maintaining the fidelity and integrity of data displayed (if that makes sense). Obviously less data means less time, but does anyone know how the TSC properties (Autoscaling, Smoothing, Marker Size, etc.) affect performance? This post is part question, part knowledge share.  If you've discovered how certain widget or other settings seem to affect the performance of the TSC, please share!     My Current Scenario: Thingworx 7.1.  We have multiple data points on multiple Things.  When I select a Thing in a mashup, the numerical properties will be queried to display in a TSC.  I'm not for sure how many points we will eventually want to throw into a chart but I've used 5000 as a MaxItems test value when querying

Good day,   I am getting the error message: "Model deployment failed on connector TW.AnalysisServices.ThingPredictorConnector" as a pop-up message and in the Application monitor: "No client thing found to deploy model".   From support case CS269545 it seems that the issue is the deployment of Thingpredictor. I have gone through the deployment guide (https://support.ptc.com/help/thingworx_hc/thingworx_analytics_8/index.html#page/thingworx_analytics_8/thingpredictor/thingpredictor-deployment.html) and I am slightly confused because I was under the impression that all the required microservices except Thingwatcher are deployed by default. I checked the predictive-standalone.yml file and the steps to change in the Thingpredictor deployment guide but the defaults look to be proficient. Is there a setting I should change that I have missed?    From topic https://community.ptc.com/t5/ThingWorx-Developers/Model-deployement-failed-on-connector-T

Hi,   I try to test the anomaly detection. First I try it with a simple service which generates data. This Fails after a short time of "Training". Than I try it with the simulator of the tutorial (https://developer.thingworx.com/resources/guides/anomaly-detection-how-guide/training-anomaly-alerts). Same problem. The application logs displays:   Returning a FAILED state for TimedValue [timestamp=1521462500513, value=0.25]. ThingWatcherMessage [timestamp=2018-03-19T12:28:20.573, severity=ERROR, state=ThingWatcherInternalState [internal=OBTAINING_MODEL, external=TRAINING], messageCode=WAT1001E, messageText=Operation exception. {Throwable=[Trainer.TrainingJobErrorException: Training job with id 8 entered into an incomplete state [FAILED] unable to process models.  Error message: [UnrecognizedPropertyException: Unrecognized field "code" (class com.thingworx.analytics.results.api.ResultResponse), not marked as ignorable (7 known properties: "status", "tags", "id", "description

Hi,   the expression widget has a big problem with everything that as the word "alert" in it. I will use an expression for change the color of a panel dependent on an alert. I use the hasAlert-Service to get the alert state for a property. I bind this state to the expression parameter "hasAlert". If I write the expression Output = hasAlert? "AlertRed" : "OkGreen"; I get the error message "You cannot use the alert function".   In the ide.js of the expression widget I saw this: if (expression.indexOf('alert') >= 0) { return TW.IDE.I18NController.translate('tw.expression-ide.warnings.cannot-use-alert'); } I think there a better ways to prevent of using the javascript alert.

Hey All, I am trying to upload data into an dataset the analytics builder. I have identified that some of my data rows don't have values.  Is there a way to make data optional in the configuration json file, or there a blank assumption when uploading into analytics that every single row and column has data.  If this is the case then i must completely clean the data before upload, I do not want the OpType to "INFORMATIONAL" either.  I understand the variances that might happen when uploading missing data , but curious if there an optional parameter that can be used. Thanks in advance for the help Cheers Paul B

Hola, I've been trying to create a datashape but i keep getting this error. Does anyone know what this is or ideas?   save failed, status: error message: Import Failed: Unable to create data shape: [1,018] Data store unknown error: [Error occurred while accessing the model provider.]        

Hello, I have a scenario where i need to load a label, textbox widget, listwidget. Based on the selected row change of the list widget i need to make visible and invisible text control. So the infotable returns around 36 rows. I have a mashup with all the above controls present and on the load event of the mashup i have called service to load the list widget and also the mashup parameters are assigned to the respective controls.   Now this mashup i am using in the repeater widget where the infotable returned from the service i have bound to data of repeater. Made the item load behavior to Load All.   When i load the mashup as popup where the repeater widget is available , i see that the data loading is very very slow. It took me almost 1min to load 36 rows.   Am i missing something.?   Thanks Sunay 

Hello, I have the data bound to a grid with column1(string),column2(checkbox). we have around 32 rows. I should allow max 16 rows to be checked and allow only 16 rows to be passed as parameter to the service. Can we achieve it in the grid. Also if there are any other option, how can i do it.     Thanks Sunay

I am trying to revert the Thingworx instance to OOTB installation. Is there any existing way to do this?    Can we do it by replacing all the metadata files and db with OOTB snapshot.

Hi, I've created datashape at runtime. Now I want to bind the datashape to the output of service. And I want to show that infotable in grid.

Thingworx seems to have the bad habit of sending "0" values to Kepware tags after editing properties on a remoteThing connected to IndustrialGateway Thing.   This happens when you create the remoteThing and bind the tags and then edit the remoteThing again and for example add a local value. Unfortunately the "readonly" property is not available. Is there any way of preventing Thingworx from doing this - ideally I would like to do this on the Thingworx side? Many thanks! Erik

Hi, I want to bind the data to grid which is taken from the csv file. The datashape for the file is created at the runtime. The datashape is created successfully but while uploding the file after creating the datasape the data from the file is not appearing in the grid. PFA for details.

Hi All,How do I create a Datashape in my service JS space?Any tips?Thanks.A.
