@petrch Glad I could help
Our developers already implemented the new functionality. Starting from new REXYGEN release it will behave as you expected - that Group itself will have also _Trigger flag.

Good luck with your project.

Hi Petr,

thank you for your comment. According to the screenshot provided you are using Groups which is a bit different. The thing is that auxiliary flags are defined for Items not Groups. Therefore try to change your GoTo flag "DB__writeGroup1_Trigger" to "DB__writeGroup1_line_no_Trigger" (or any other Item name within the Group followed by "_Trigger" suffix) - it should do the job.

Let me know if it solved the issue.

Cheers, Tomas

Hi Scoobsalamander,

glad I could help. You are right, I didn't take to count the timing. Good luck with your project!

Cheers, Tomas

Hi Scoobsalamander,

thanks for your question. If I understand correctly the solution can look like:

Sample source file: Beckhoff_resetWatchdog.mdl

Hope it helps.

Cheers, Tomas

Thank you for update. If you encounter any strange behaviour again, please, let us know.
Good luck with your project!

Cheers, Tomas

Hi Stepan,

I'm sorry to hear that you struggle using HMI. I just tried to reproduce the error without success and did following:

• Install Raspbian Stretch with desktop
• Install REXYGEN (Getting Started)
• Start from an Example Project -> 0120-01 Getting started
• Compile and Download
• Open Chromium on Touchscreen and navigate to 127.0.0.1:8008

Please, can you try to go through and report results?

Thank you for cooperation.

Regards, Tomas

Hi George,

thank you for interesting question. In REXYGEN it is possible to force write to database whenever you want to - it is done by additional auxiliary flag "Trigger". See screenshot which shows additional logic in order to generate pulse every 5 minutes aligned with local time.

Source file download: DB_trigger.mdl

More information on auxiliary flags - see DbDrv docs: https://www.rexygen.com/doc/ENGLISH/MANUALS/DbDrv/DbDrv_ENG.html#x1-200003.2

Hope it helps.

Hi @defcon-klaxon
this is just to let you know that you can access the labs of PID Control Laboratory again.

Kind regards,

Hi,
the registration is temporarily disabled due to massive amount of Internet crawlers and spambots. A workaround is being prepared as I write this.

What lab is your favourite?

Best regards,

Hi Mike,
the mentioned sensor is just a voltage divider. The input impedance of AI on the Monarco HAT is 4.24kOhm, which naturally changes the ratio of the divider. Therefore if the resistors are 30k and 7.5k (as per the photo) and the external voltage is 13.2 V, the AI will read 1.09 V. And yes, it will work correctly if you rescale it in software. Though you'll loose some resolution.

The input impedance of your multimeter is probably much higher and does not affect the voltage divider that much.

Nice example for practicing serial and parallel connections of resistors.

Kind regards,
Jaroslav
