Hi

I think it would be handy to have a heirarchy or dropdown feature available for the watchlist function (like how Point Heirarchy works).
As the number of watchlists that I have grows, it becomes harder and slower to find the right watchlist!

It would also be convenient if watchlists could be replicated/synced between mango instances using Persistent TCP.
Watchlists could be added to the publisher in the same way that points are currently added.

Thanks
Jeremy

I have set up an SMTP to SMS gateway for sending messages to a cellphone.
The problem is I need to set up multiple SMTP servers and be able to choose which one I use.
I can send SMS messages through the Gmail server allowing for both email and SMS alerts, but this isn't really a good idea as it allows anyone to send through my gateway.
If I can set up multiple SMTP servers in Mango, I can set up my gateway to only allow connections from the Mango sever.

Further to this it would be good if I could set up a different set of email templates for each SMTP server. Obviously a SMS alert has formatting limitations over email.

Cheers,
Matt.

I could certainly be tempted into making an operating system dependent module for this task... just write a way to extract data from useful nmap commands. That would be my naive hack, since it seems Java frays a little when it comes to controlling network actions directly.

No check out the server side script widget. This allows you to do all sorts of things.

Here are some example scripts. The ones with images probably wont work as the image path won't be right but they should be useful:

var idx = 0; s = "<select onchange='idx=this.options(this.selectedIndex).value; \ if (idx == 0) mango.view.setPoint("+ point.id +", \""+ pointComponent.id +"\", \"0\"); \ if (idx == 14) mango.view.setPoint("+ point.id +", \""+ pointComponent.id +"\", \"14\"); \ if (idx == 32) mango.view.setPoint("+ point.id +", \""+ pointComponent.id +"\", \"32\"); \ if (idx == 3) mango.view.setPoint("+ point.id +", \""+ pointComponent.id +"\", \"3\"); \ if (idx == 94) mango.view.setPoint("+ point.id +", \""+ pointComponent.id +"\", \"94\");

+1,

I generally purge the entire point history using the 'purge all data' option under the data point settings.

This is actually a feature we have planned in the near future and I agree will be an excellent upgrade.

Joel.
Cool! How many releases before you think it is likely to get in?

I saw that terrypacker has implemented something similar in his DFT dialog page in [url=https://github.com/terrypacker/mango-modules]one of his modules, 'control toolbox'.
There is [url=http://forum.infiniteautomation.com/forum/posts/list/1648.page#6768]a screenshot in this post.
Maybe most of the hard work is already done.

We have finished the BACnet Publisher and it works great. It's now part of the BACnet 2.1.0 module which is part of the new release of Mango 2.4.0. Please test it out and let us know what you think.

Joel.

Hi Jeremy,

Yes you can install the module in an existing system. The module will be restricted until is has a license as well but you can test it out with up to 5 points before you get a license for it. You also need to make sure the module version you get matches the version of the core you have.

Thanks,
Joel.

Thanks this looks really interesting. We'll take a look and see what it would take to add to Mango. If it's something you wanted to be added sooner than later maybe consider pitching in some development funds and we could make it more of a priority.

Thanks,

Joel.

I 'm with you, but it seems nobody interested ,
KNX widely used in home automation,
so its good if someone here already implemented it with mango, Anyone ?

Has there been any movement in including this as a module in Mango Automation (ie M2M2) since the last post?

@pbisiac said:

Perhaph's a silly question, but....do you think a .NET porting of Mango would be possibile ?
Nobody answers......too much affection for java ? Nobody out there thinking that .net 4.0/4.5 would be a great opportunity to make a change ?

This would require a custom Data Source module to be developed.

Joel.

Hi all,
I want to know what is authorization key and xid prefix in Serotonin Persistent TCP properties, present in publishers ? what value should i fill in the same ? and How to publish point updates, to another instance of Mango using Publishers? and why this link is not working "Serotonin Persistent TCP point properties". It is giving an error as [Document id not found /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.20/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/dox//en/persistentPP.htm] ,how can i see the content for this page .

In the history section of the data points shows values of the latest data points. If the system allows us set the preferred time (the latest time is the default) and view the last several values of the data points just before the specified time, it lets us check some values easily that shows in the chart (without downloading the CSV file).

Good suggestions.

You can use the user export on the Import / Export page to export the users, you can then copy the export of the user you want to duplicate, rename it and past it back into the import window and click import. Once you do it once or twice it's actually pretty easy and fast.

Joel.

Thanks for your suggestion. We will review this.

If this is something you need addressed soon and is critical to your applications please email me.

Thanks

It would be good if XID import status were displayed in different colors: currently all import results display in red, so errors do not stand out.
This is especially a problem when there are a lot of points.
e.g.:
red=errors,
green=added new XID,
blue=updated existing XID

Thanks.

Can you please ensure that the datapoint import routine will check to see if there is already a value for the given time stamp, and if so, overwrite the existing value instead of creating duplicate time entries with different values?

This will not only prevent data duplication if an already-imported point time entry is re-imported, it may also provide an easy way to correct erroneous values that may have crept into the time history.

Thanks.

Can you please make sure that MA 2.0x can import multiple Mango M2M point values with no reformatting whatsoever?

I have over 300 datapoints, each containing thousands of entries. If I have to reformat anything at all in the CSV format between the two versions, it will not be a simple copy/paste, will greatly slow down the process, and will make it more prone to errors.

Thanks.
