Any possibilities or trick in GRID to read only the BRANCH of the variable at the Variable Tracking Filter slot.
I have variables like:-
BUILDING.FLOOR1.ROOM1.AC.SETPOINT
BUILDING.FLOOR1.ROOM1.AC.ON_OFF
BUILDING.FLOOR2.ROOM1.AC.SETPOINT
BUILDING.FLOOR2.ROOM1.AC.ON_OFF
BUILDING.FLOOR3.ROOM1.AC.SETPOINT
BUILDING.FLOOR3.ROOM1.AC.ON_OFF
The scenario is like this:
Link Open a Mimic or a Popup (Applied the Branch at link open. E.g. BUILDING.FLOOR1)
At the Grid it should show only BUILDING.FLOOR1
I tried the SELECTOR in the SCADA BASIC, seems not as I expected.
Hi,
could you try something like :
Name like "BUILDING.FLOOR1.* "
Put it in the Filter field in the Grid Parameters

Yes. I tried it . If I applied BUILDING.FLOOR1.* at the Filter, it will show all the variables corresponding to his branch.
The customer want to see the Branch only
Hi,
The variable tracking mode only displays variables and not branches.
A typical workaroud is to create _CONF variable for each floor and then apply a filter like:
^BUILDING.FLOOR[0-9]._CONF$
Be aware that there is a fee to pay to Dominique and I for that trick 😉
By the way Florent, you never paid for it :whistle:
But it is an excellent trick, useful in many situations, not only the grid control.
Thank you guys.
I knew that the variable tracking mode only to display variables.
Before I received the answer from Florent, I wrote a SCADA Basic script to get the value and pass into an internal variable.
