Configuring MES to production data

The first test using Arduino! Fast and easy!

Goal: 
The goal here is just to test connection between PC and Arduino with upload data and running a code blinking a led.

1. First of all you can do the download of Arduido IDE to create some programs.

 - https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software

2. After that, connect the arduino using de USB cable (to supply data connectivity and power).

Open the Arduino IDE and write these data:
#define LED 13

void setup() {
  pinMode(LED, OUTPUT);
}

void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED, HIGH);
  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(LED, LOW);
  delay(1000);
}

3. Validate the code and  upload
put a led in Digital port 13

Fast and easy!!!

Connecting Wonderware Historian with Schneider PLC M580 using Modbus Protocol (portuguese language)

Using a Microsoft Chart for Histogram into Wonderware System Platform at Glance

Knowledge Assumptions:

• Microsoft Chart (Forms)
• Microsoft SQL Server
• Wonderware System Platform (AGraphics)
• Wonderware System Platform (Historian Server and Historian Client)
• Wonderware InTouch

Steps:

1 - Import the AGraphics which represent the histogram (you can request it if you wish for download)

2 - Realize that the AGraphics already has Microsoft Windows Forms (Chart) and custom properties of AGraphics;

   

 3 -Verify the SQL select statement from SQL custom properties "SQLQuery" on Mirosoft SQL Server Managment Studio using SysTimeSec as a test

4 - After you test the SQLQuery with standard SysTimeSec tagname, you can try to run into a InTouch Window

 

5 -  Put the Histogram AGraphics into an equipment object

6 - Here, it is very important to know how the Histrogram symbom from $Pump can call the Histogram Graphics embeded with custom properties

7 -  Now, put this AGraphics from the object reference on InTouch

8 - Test the InTouch screen Histogram

this look like the SysTimeSec, because I am using the Tag second to populate the Pump_001.current

9 - Look the Pump_001.current on Historian Client

10 - Now, I am changing the algorithm to this pattern below

11 - Realize how the histogram have been changed

Putting a Microsoft Date and Time Picker into Excel

Normally in a Historian Project you need offer the Microsoft Date and Time Picker into Excel giving to the user more flexibility to choose date and time he wants to the historical data.

 

  Where are the Date and Time Picker?
