Hi Joel, It is version 2.5.0. I have figured it out. I had public-dashboards open with the data points being visualised via the API to a local web page. The data points that were being utilised on the page were the points that were giving me an error when I went to amend them. Simply closing the open web page allowed me to edit the data points without error. Dominic

The image is created prior to generating the HTML via the FTL template. The images all have preset sizes and are generated at this size when the report is created. A future feature could be allowing sizes to be set in the report configuration. However there is a way to generate different size charts via the Chart Servlet. This is the servlet that generates the charts on the Data Point Details page. The help for this can be accessed via the help icon in the System Settings --> Chart API Settings. These charts are different than the report charts but it should be possible to use this chart instead if you can create the URL properly in the template.

Thank you! Solved by removing report usin SQL

That was it. I had completely misinterpreted what the check boxes were for and had them selected. That resolves the issue of clients causing havoc but it would be nice to remove access to all modules except DGLux. I'm looking forward to the next version. Development seems to be happening in leaps and bounds lately. I especially like the new module upgrade feature. Matt.

That is a self referencing variable. so my.value would give you the value of the meta data point. This is useful if you want to add a value to it's self or use the current or past values of the meta data point within the calculation. It prevents you from needing to add the meta data point into the script context which ultimately allows you to import self referencing meta data points through the JSON import without getting errors.

Hi Joel Thanks again for the detailed info. At this point we can shelf the excel requirement as we are just working through the best way to bring a simple production schedule and related data into the database. We have also explored the pop3 data source as an option. Our goal is to be compatible with something simple that clients would already have in their workflow. Any suggestions you have would also be greatly appreciated. On the topic of XML do you have an example of an import class that we could use as a test which is based on a simple excel document? Thanks Michael

Thanks Joel, I believe that it uses BACNet. Frankly I don't have any idea except that it talks over a Serial Cable. I also don't know anything about HVAC. I did find the Help menu to be really very helpful. I thought maybe I had slipped through an interdimensional portal. I will keep working on it. Thanks for you rhelp thus far. Cartoad

I agree with Joel. The HTTP Retriever would work fine for this. Regex is cumbersome to work with but very powerful. I haven't had time to test this and I don't know what the entire XML response looks like but here is an example regex string that should get you close: <input0state>(.*)</input0State>

Oh my! Thank you so very much! Will do first thing tomorrow and report back! Cartoad

That code was not updated in the last release when we made some changes to the Data Provider javascript classes. Add the following as the first 2 lines of the Data Providers script tags area. <!-- Data Providers --> <script type="text/javascript" src="/modules/dashboards/web/js/extend.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/mango-javascript/v1/dataProvider.js"></script> It looks like you are using Chrome? If so I suggest you use the the Developer Tools and reload the page. This will show you any errors that exist. Also it will allow you to configure the window to not use the cache while you are testing/developing javascript. Open the Developer Tools by using the menus View->Developer->Developer Tools. Hope this helps, Terry

I see, this is a pretty cool idea. This article in the wiki should help: http://infiniteautomation.com/wiki/doku.php?id=automation:script_examples If you run this Meta Script at the end of each hour it will calculate your hourly kWh: return p1.value - p1.ago(HOUR) I'm sure how you will create this in DGLux but I think the logic to determine the color for each hour would be better in DGLux. The other thing you might consider is to use our API and do it in pure JavaScript which would be a bit more flexible

I've managed to get my webcam images into Mango on the main server using the VPN and a bit of port forwarding. Is it possible to get an image out of a Mango image data point into DGLux? Could I embed a Mango graphical view in DGLux? The webcam is accessible to the Mango server but is not accessible from the web so all images or streams must be proxied by the server. Matt.

Thanks Joel Will try and let you know how it goes. Regards

The Bacnet IP publisher works in discovery mode. However, the unit shows "no_unit (0x5F)". Units are kilowatt-hours, Watts, .... They are already defined in BACNet codes. How can I publish object values with units ? Thanks !

Terry, I have replicated the 401 error and found the cause. When this error occured, the response headers contain the field 'errors' with a value 'User not logged in'. After a little bit of experimenting, I have worked out what I did to cause this. To replicate: Using Chrome*, open the Mango web interface and log in. Open in another tab of the same window, a web application that utilised the Mango API and log in. Separate the two tabs into different browser windows. Log out from the web application and you will receive the 401 error. *I haven't tried other browsers. Explanation: The two tabs utilise the same session cookie. The cookie must be associated with one of the two browser windows when the separation occurs. The domain of this cookie matches the domain in the address bar of the mango web interface so the browser understandably associates that cookie with the Mango web interface, not the web application. Now the web application does not have a log-in cookie. Possible answers: Don't do that. Have the Mango API deliver a different cookie. Set an expiry time on the cookie. For me #2 is preferable but that may not play well with custom dashboards. Gary

Is there a guide to define the new BACnet terms used in Mango 2.5? We were able, with some difficulty, to discover and add points in the older versions of Mango. But this has us stumped. Unfamiliar terms not discussed in the Help include: Local Bind Address (System Settings) Broadcast Address (System Settings) . Is this any BBMD or does it have to be in the same subnet as the Mango Instance? MAC (Data Source Remote device object list) Marty

You can definitely update it but Mango might not recognize it until it's restarted.
