Graphic

[Beaware]

Hello, I'm new to Advanced HMI, and I think it's great. I have already made a page for home automation management and it works well. I communicate with a Schneider Twido PLC in TCP ModBus.

I would like to create a second page with a graph that records the temperature values of my 2 sensors and my PID (%MFxx, %MWxx). Can you help me, please.

- In Solution Explorer, Right click the AdvancedHMI project and select Add->Windows Form
- Give the form a name
- Build the solution
- On the MainForm add a FormChangeButton
- Set FormToOpen to the new form you added
- On the new form add a FormChangeButton and set FormToOpen to Mainform

Thank you very much @Archie, it works perfectly well and I now understand how to add pages to my project.

Now it's how to create an animated graph that represents the curves of my probes over a time/temperature period. I have the means to read the words of my Schneider Twido PLC to read their values, but how do I format it on a page?

Thank you for your patience and help.

Sincerely.

Make sure the form has a driver instance

- Add a ChartBySampling
- Use the PLCAddressItems to add series to the chart

Note : If you use the 3.99y Beta version, it has a ChartWithLogging

Thank you again for this information, but it doesn't work. However, I have positioned the Modbus TCP on my page 2, I have added the PLC addresses of %MW12 (PLC Adress 40013) and %MW31 (PLC Adress 40032), but I do not see anything on the graph appear. I'm really new to this field. I would have even liked to read some %MF values, because they tolerate a number after the comma.

Add a BasicLabel to the form and set PLCAddressValue to 40013

This will show you any communication errors.

Hello, I added a BasicLabel with PLC address 40013 but I have no errors. On my page I have no problem to display the states of my bits or words of my PLC.
The graph is all white for me.

What version of AdvancedHMI are you using and what OS?

[Beaware]

It is 3.99r1 and Windows 10 pro(update ok)

[Archie]

Do you see a chart in Design View in Visual Studio or the same white area?

Can you try the latest Beta version:

Yes, I can see a graph in creation mode. I have configured only one input, that of my temperature probe. Shouldn't we configure time in addition by a word? Don't you need an ordered axis and an abscissa axis?  But I don't know how to do it.

[Archie]

The Sample time is determined by the PollRateOverride setting of the driver instance

[Beaware]

I can't find this parameter "PollRateOverride"

I found, really sorry for the inconvenience I hadn't entered the IP address in the ModbusTCP module. Sorry and thank you for your help, I haven't finished my project.
