Thanks @terrypacker.
The messages are actually already being saved.
The meta data point is an alphanumeric point pulling values from other modbus points and sending them together in one message.
I'm afraid I'm not a programmer. Would you be able to help with the script?

@cwangv

Yes, that is a solution, but in general, I would like to know how to do it over SOAP from mango.

@terrypacker Cool that works. Removing both .h2 and .db was the key. I'll
Thanks

I shall give that a go, thanks.

Hi NinoK,

if you create a new BACnet-Data-Source your local device IP (old system settings / BACnet local devices: 192.168.100.105:47808) should be the same as the Mango-Server has:

If you create a new BACnet data point it should look like:

2c6aded6-316c-465b-b134-ca48a1f72d66-image.png

where the "Device instance number" is the given Device ID, here 5.

If all BACnet-Devices are in the same IP-Range you don't need a BBMD.
Be carful if you scan a large BACnet-Network with many devices and objects. It can take a long time and need server-resources. Better is to scan one ID.

@bhansen Modbus does not support discovery, so you need to know the slave address, register address, type and format to be able to map data points.

This reference on the Mango site may help : http://docs-v4.mango-os.com/modbus-point-list-requirements

This one: https://forum.mango-os.com/topic/3551/data-sources-does-not-appear/13?_=1629414527624

@till That is correct. The value will be held in the cache. You can even set the data point to hold x number of values in the cache so there is some history there.

@hazel I am pretty confident one of your registers is being read as:

NaN

by Mango.

I have opened a ticket to make this more robust but the current version of Mango does not have a simple way to determine what data point is causing this. You will need to start looking into what registers you are reading for numeric values that have out of range data.

@terrypacker thanks a lot, an example code is more than enough. I will look into the library in detail and see how to use it in the upcoming days.

Thanks once again!

@mert sorry for the delay. Another option would be to use the Service that is injected into the context like this:

const dataSourceService = services.dataSourceService; const ip = dataSourceService.get('xid');

Also here is a collection of example scripts for the new environment and a few for the legacy one:

https://github.com/infiniteautomation/script-examples

Is there any plan to give permission to Global Scripts? Because user can view Global Scripts page and scripting permissions can be defined on system permissions.

@joelhaggar said in Config Import:

To set a PTCP data point it will send the set command down to the originating data point.

Ah! That's very good to know, thanks for that note. I wasn't aware the PTCP points are working in both directions like that.

@cwangv
Yes, thanks. Seems like there is no harm in just importing it over the existing one that I receive through the Persistent TCP data source.

I think there is a component similar to what you are asking about in this demo https://github.com/infiniteautomation/mango-demo

The demo is for Mango v4 and is a bit outdated but might give you some ideas on how to get it done.

@jared-wiltshire Yes, my bad. Oh i see, well thx for the help again.
