Hello,
Here are some news as expected.
Last time, Nicolas started a wishlist concerning SCADA Basic instructions.
We will do the same regarding PcVue in general. It would be a kind of Services wishlist.
I am in charge of gathering all your suggestions and finally propose a vote in order to highlight the most relevant ones.
Here are the rules:
- You can give up to 5 wishes
- Order your list from the most (1) to the less (5) important for you.
- If suitable, specify the category, as in the KB (General, HMI, ...)
A wish can be an improvement, a rejected SPR, a must-have feature, ...
The deadline is 31st of October (2015)
Ready, steady, go!
Thanks
Edouard
| 1 | Configuration environment | Possibility to configure shortcuts in order to open AA and AE |
| 2 | Audit and diagnostic | Possibility to create object counter system variables in order to know for example the number of equipment variables configured in the project. |
| 3 | Archive Data mgt | Possibility to configure complex archiving groups as we can do in DreamReport. |
| 4 | HMI | Having a general parameter for the Design screen resolution to facilitate the adaptation of the mimics. Today the parameter is only available on the mimics themselves, it means we have to set the parameter for all the mimics. |
| 5 | Communication interfaces | To be compatible with OPC UA Server |
1. Configuration Environnent: Redo all old dialog box (Communication Equipment, Scada ...)
2. Configuration Environment: Change Printer configuration and Run time bahaviour, mimics are never scale in the good way
3. Crossed References: be able to fin a string in configuration, like we do with Notepad++ but integrated.
4. Networking: Activate Winnet in demo mode.
5. Archive Data Mgt: Official converter Proprio -> HDS
1-HMI - Native date and time picker.
Could be use with loglist, data export etc
2-HMI - Native note to SQL(writing/editing)
3-SCADA - Tab configuration by Scada
Add a scada basic verb to configure mimic tab by SCADA
4-HMI - Display log on AIgrid
Could be use to create note
5-Application explorer
Configuration of Modbus TCP/IP and IP ISO S7 on Application explorer
HMI
1. Filter by text attributes into alarm and log viewer
Real Time Data Mgmt
2. Variable system about licenses
Real Time Data Mgmt
3. Add description on system variables
User rights
4. Merge of user profiles. One user into two profiles
Configuration Environment
5. Shortcut key to switch from Design/Run mode
1. New Scheduler Module
2. Screen resolution station by station, in case of multistation and multiscreen project.
- Mimic-templates: ability to nest templates
- MImic-templates: improve inheritance from template to mimic: inherit onload / onunload mimic events (SCADA Basic)
- Mimic / templates: ability to configure onload / onunload (maybe more) events of a mimic in the UI (SCADA Basic)
- Application Architect: "Select / Deselect" should be property of a configuration Item. So a parameter could be used
- Application Architect: Ability to configure all communication (or better all configuration) in the Architect, inluding Cimway (also Frames)
Sorry for one more little thing: SCADA Basic Window should not be modal !!!
Here is mine:
1/ Scripting – Scada Basic Editor auto completion with the final semicolon for instructions concerned (SPR 15992) and Select case instruction implementation
2/ Configuration environment – Multilingual Varexp.dat (and Unicode format management?)
3/ Configuration environment – Migration of old dialog boxes to new ones or at least the possibility to configure a sever list for NETWORK and EQUIPMENT
4/ Configuration environment – HMI to configure the Scada Basic program on mimic open
5/ General - real distributed User.dat (automatic with options)
[EDIT by NK]
[EDIT again (Changed my mind one 1 topic!)]
Mine:
1. Communication interface
Web contextual variables. Mechanism that creates a set of internal variables everytime a new Web session (webvue, web service, touchvue,...) is created. Ex: SYSTEM..var1
These variables are removed when session ends.
Add a new substitution string (i.e. #WEB) with value = current session ID.
2. Data analysis
Add 2 new properties for Export object: Destination Folder (overidding the global one) and 1 Text variable with value = FileName generated.
3. Variables
Possibility having threshold values linked with Variables. That case will be usefull when the threshold values are managed by the Equipments.
4. Archiving
For HDS logs: Add the same recording filters than proprietary archives and manage maximum file size for hds file recorded locally.
5. Configuration
Enhance Application Explorer ergonomy mostly on the right Panel (ListView). Examples:
- Display item numbers
- Ability to sort
- Column customization: Potentially any property
- Searching: Something like the Search field in Windows Explorer
- Filtering: Something like the Excel filtering combo
- etc...
Hi,
Can only think of 4: 🙁
1. SCADA Basic Window should not be modal (copied frm Johannes :whistle: )
2. SCADA BASIC ,breakpoint, debugger window
3. New SBAsic functions to access Serial COM Port (ComOpen, ComClose, ComRead, ComWrite) for customers that want to access devices such as serial gsm/gprs modem, wireless zigbee module
4. SEND ANIMATION eg SEND register value to write value to a variable by either hitting ENTER/TAB/mouseclick
rgds
1. Possibility to select few variables in AE and make the changes for example like "Command" for all the selected variables. Or something like "Drawing properties manager" but for the variables. Yes, we have Excel but...
2. Mimic templates - templates for templates
3. >8 trends at the Trend viewer.
4. Alarm sound. For example, possibility to select a music file as an option for Alarm Synthesis
5. Using send animation without Enter
Thanks for those who did participate. The list is closed for the moment.
Next step is coming...
Hi,
I know, the wishlist is closed, but I wanted to add some features:
- Scada Basic: possibility to browse all existing variables (instead of opening Varexp.dat file), and of course all domain/nature
And in the same way:
- AiGrid/other controls: possibility to get the list of domain/nature/variables (like variables in current AIGrid)
A+
