seems still busted to me

Hi,

I have a dashboard that seems to get hung up with the spinning orange ring periodically and the only thing I can see from the logs is data purge starts and gets stuck, doesn’t complete and I have to restart mango. I have an auto logged in user on a rotating dashboard. Maybe there is a way to log off and enter a maintenance mode and do purges/backups etc and log back in.
Any thoughts?

Ya, I was numeric but when I clicked on the refresh it picked alpha. Presently is selected for numeric.

Ok, from the point setup, there are only 4 choices for data type:
Binary, Multistate, Numeric and Alphanumeric.
I am attempting to read and write to an analog value, with it set to numeric

Does the snapshot help?

I tried that, but no difference on 40.6 vs. 40.2
If I write 38, or 39, or 40 it changes. Could this be a setting in my bacnet data point data type? I can use other 3rd party software and write decimal values without issue. Seems like it is confined to Mango, so I am thinking there must be a setting. Joel or Phil? any thoughts?
This is using version 3.7.3

Hi All,

I have a dashboard setup which when I write a bacnet value to a DDC controller, Mango seems to only write on the whole number. For example when I write 40.2 in the dashboard, what it seems Mango writes to my datapoint is 40.0
I am guessing there is a setting somewhere for minimum increment or something like that but I haven't bee able to find it.

Can someone point me to it?

Hey Folks,

Thank you so much! It was indeed a newbie thing as suggested by Phil and Fox.

Really appreciate your help.

Jim.

Here is a simple snap shot of what I have done.
testvar and var_oat are my data points in the scripting data source.

So LOG.info will print the correct values when i run validate. I am aware of having to save

Hi All,
I am pretty sure this is newbie stuff, but I have set up a scripting datasource, added some external points, can make caculations on my points and when i validate the script, I can log.info values that seem to make sense. The problem is that none of my datapoints in my datasource receive values. I am thinking there is something simple I am missing, but can't figure it out.
I set a CRON pattern for every 30 seconds, saved the script, enabled it, but can't think of what I am missing.
When I look at the data points window, all the values show either a diamond with a question mark in them or No value.

I have created my script which has 30 ish external points that I use to calculate a total energy, CO2 etc for an energy dashboard, and my datapoints I am hoping to track the individual calculated values for energy etc on each piece of equipment. Any thoughts?
This is on 3.6
I am certain it is just something I have either not set or shouldn't have set.

Hi,

Yes, in dashboard designer, I am adding components from the palette and one is the video component from the basic components tab.

I want to have a background video which moves all the time, and then have a second video placed on top with alpha channel so transparent background which I can start and stop at specific points depending on data values, but the background continues to move.

Hi All,
I am attempting to have a couple video files overlay with alpha channel for transparency. Can someone tell me what codecs are supported and/or if I can add more codecs. I am having troubles finding specific documentation on the video component. I must be looking in the wrong places.

THanks,

Jim.

Ok I did that and will recheck to see where I missed the documentation.

I will have a look also at the user module. That seems like a good candidate.

Thanks for the pointer

Jim.

Hi All,

I have a video that I want to start and stop at certain points based on values from data points. How best would I do that?

In dashboard designer, I can load my video and load my data points but not sure how to link the two together so the video will stop at either a certain time index or certain frame based on a value from my data point.
Was also having trouble finding detail component documentation. Can someone point me to where I should look?

Jim.
