Hi Peter,

thanks for reaching out. I'm glad that you are excited about REXYGEN.

Can you provide more details about your project? What is the goal? Which PLC do you use? How can you communicate with the PLC?

There is no generic driver for Bluetooth in REXYGEN however you can integrate it using Python Function Block, which will be part of REXYGEN in upcoming release. If you are interested in testing pre-release version head to https://forum.rexygen.com/topic/120/installation-of-rexygen-2-50-10-r5 for mre details.

If you have any questions in your mind, let me know and I will be happy to answer them.

Regards,
Tomas

Hi Peter,

the HTTPS server is enabled by default on port 8009 - there is no need to change the rexcore.cfg unless you want to change the port.

The HMI should be accessible at

https://YOUR_RPI_IP:8009/

Be sure to write explicitly https and the ending /.

Tomas

Hi Peter,

the issue is that the Prowl API key need to be stated as query parameter not as a "user" parameter. Try to add the API key string to "urldata" input of HTTP2 function block in following format:

?apikey=YOUR_PROWL_API_KEY

Note: if you want to add more parameters, use "&"

Let me know if it helped.

Tomas

Hi Peter,

thanks for your interest. Integrating Prowl notifications to REXYGEN should be straightforward using REST API (function block HTTP2) - see docs: https://www.rexygen.com/doc/ENGLISH/MANUALS/BRef/HTTP2.html#x263-26200015

There are also some examples which illustrate how to use HTTP2 function block. See examples directory 0302 IoT Integrations.

Let me know if you require any help.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for sharing the solution you found - it is absolutely right - well done!

Cheers,
Tomas

Hi Peter,

thanks for your question. You are right - there is missing the most important information - where to change these options - we will improve the docs.

These settings can be changed by editing file rexcore.cfg. For more details see: https://www.rexygen.com/doc/ENGLISH/MANUALS/RexCore/RexCore_ENG.html#x1-50002.2
Location of configuration files is described here:
https://www.rexygen.com/doc/ENGLISH/MANUALS/RexCore/RexCore_ENG.html#x1-40002.1

Hi Russell,

the RexArc utility is now available in pre-release version 2.50.10-r5. Do you want to try it out or better wait for public release version?

Regards, Tomas

Hi Martijn,

thank you for your question, however I'm not sure what you are after. Please, can you add some details? What do you get? Source files? What does System Log says?

I also recommend you to have a look at example "0404-04 MySQL Reading Recipes" (try it out, read "readme") - it can help to achieve your goal.

Let me know if I can be of assistance.

Tomas

Hi Martijn,

this functionality is often called Radio button. This feature is not supported in REXYGEN now.
As a workaround you can use ComboBox component which does the same with only different representation.

Regards
Tomas

Hi Martijn,

thank you for your question. In current REXYGEN version (2.50.9) there is no such feature as popup window.

However it can be done by using "hide_by" parameter in HMI component. The background rectangle can be drawn in REXYGEN HMI Designer and animated using "Group Animation - Opacity" (Ctrl + J).

Regards
Tomas

Hello,

have a look at HMI component called "ComboBox" in GENERAL library.

ComboBox allows you to choose item (value) from predefined list. I recommend you to link it with CNE function block in REXYGEN (it has integer output iy which can be connected to SELSOCT isw input).

Let me know if I can be of assistance.

Tomas

Hi Martijn,

REXLANG:
you can create substring in REXLANG using function

string strsub(str,idx,len)

Returns a substring of length len starting at index idx

For more details on String functions in REXLANG see docs: https://www.rexygen.com/doc/PDF/ENGLISH/BRef_ENG.pdf#page=442

Function blocks:
It is also possible to create substring using function block called MID.
For more details on String Function blocks see docs:
https://www.rexygen.com/doc/PDF/ENGLISH/BRef_ENG.pdf#page=279

Hi Martijn,

if you send us all your project files (zipped project folder) and list of parameters controlled by slider/switch I will prepare the HMI svg sample file for you.

You can upload the project directly here to the forum or send via e-mail to support@rexygen.com

Hi Ivan,
our developers has fixed the issue with moving of the component on the edge of the screen - fix will be part of new release version.

However the origin of this issue is that you didn't respect the page size in your design. See following screenshot:

I recommend to resize the page. You can use "Resize page to content..." feature in the Document Properties dialog.

Regards, Tomas

@martijnperdaan
Hi Martijn,
the switch and slider are standard components of REXYGEN HMI Designer - there is no need for any additional custom javascript.

Please, go through Chapter 3 of REXYGEN HMI documentation. Once you run into any troubles let me know and I will try to guide you.

Regards, Tomas

Hi Ivan,

thank you for your question.
Using REXLANG function block you can manage Ethernet communication - see REXLANG documentation - part Communication functions: https://www.rexygen.com/doc/PDF/ENGLISH/BRef_ENG.pdf#page=447

Have a look also at "0504-01 Generic UDP Sender Receiver" example which can help you to start with the implementation.

Regards, Tomas

@sadilekivan We always recommend to upgrade both Development Tools and REXYGEN Runtime Core. However, wait for the release of version 2.50.10 first.

Thank you for understanding.

Regards, Tomas

Hi Ivan,

this bug was already reported, fixed by our developers and will be part of upcoming release.

Thank you anyway for your report! We really appreciate it.

Regards, Tomas
