Additional to Richard's comments, the DspAnGetPos() function returns the X and Y position of the animation point in question, relative to the top-left corner of the window (remember multiple screens can be present). Every object on a Citect page has an Animation Point and some objects can have many depending upon whether multiple objects have been grouped into a single object etc.. This function is one of the few functions within Citect that returns both X and Y positions at the same time. Example: FUNCTION AnXYPos(INT hAn) INT iXPos; INT iYpos; DspAnGetPos(hAn, iXpos, iYpos); When the function is run iXpos & iYpos will contain the X, Y coordinates to the AN passed Regards Rob

You are correct with your assumption the function AlarmSetInfo will overwrite other filters set by AlarmSetInfo. Its better to use the Alarm Filter Functions The following is a copy from the help for AlarmFilterEditSet function iHndl = AlarmFilterEditOpen(iAN); iRet = AlarmFilterEditSet(iHndl,"Tag=Dig*;Category=1;Area=1;"); iRet = AlarmFilterEditAppend(iHndl, "Priority<20"); sRet = AlarmFilterEditFirst(iHndl); // Tag=Dig*; sRet = AlarmFilterEditNext(iHndl); // Category=1; sRet = AlarmFilterEditLast(iHndl); // Priority<20; sRet = AlarmFilterEditPrev(iHndl); // Area=1; iRet = AlarmFilterEditClose(iHndl); Regards Rob

Also check the Master.dbf, which is found in the User location, it contains the project name and project location, ensure that the folder locations for each project are correct. I have attached an example screenshot. NOTE do not change the column widths Regards Rob

Its worth double checking the Citect.ini file, In the section [CtEdit] ensure all the paths are correct, pay particular attention to Bin: folder which should point to the Citect installation folder location, it has Citect32.exe User: which has all the Citect projects, see the attached screenshot The following is a example INI setting for Citect SCADA 2018, [CtEdit] Bin = C:\Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric\Citect SCADA 2018\Bin Config =C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric\Citect SCADA 2018\Config Data =C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric\Citect SCADA 2018\Data Logs =C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric\Citect SCADA 2018\Logs User =C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric\Citect SCADA 2018\User Regards Rob

I do not have a MiCOM P127 and are therefore unable to test with Citect. Citect SCADA has approximately 20 different Protocol configurations for Modbus Eg, Modbus1, Modbus20 in which the major parameters are hard coded into the Driver. Check that the Citect I/O Device Protocol is set to Modbus, not Eg Modbus20, this means the parameter changes in the INI file will have an effect, unfortunately it’s a matter of trying different parameter combinations. It may also be worth plugging the MiCOM directly into the PC using a USB to Serial converter and using a utility like ModScan to validate the readings. Regards Rob

Hi Below is an extract from the Modbus help (attached), try the following parameters using the Setup Editor, ensure the change is made on the IOServer. Note: This parameter is not applicable if you are using the protocol variant MODBUS20 or MODBUS30 to communicate with a device. Under these circumstances, a value of 3 will be hardcoded for this parameter in the driver. [MODBUS]LongDataType In the Modbus protocol, LONG data types defaultto a simplified implementation, with a shortened range of 0 to 99,999,999 - mode 0. Mode 2 has the samerange as mode 0, but with the register order swapped. Mode 1 supports thecomplete LONG range of -2,147,483,648 to +2,147,483,647. Mode 3 has the samerange as mode 1, but with the register order swapped. Allowable Values: 0 to 3, where: 0 = 10000 x low register + high register 1 = 65536 x low register + high register 2 = 10000 x high register + low register 3 = 65536 x high register + low register Default Value: 3 With this parameter, you can set different values for specific I/O devices or groups of I/O devices. See Device/group-specific parameters. If this doesn't work we will need more information Eg what controller are you using? Regards Rob

Hi The following link is to the Citect 2016 Online help for Kernel commands https://www.citect.schneider-electric.com/webhelp/citect800/#Kernel_Commands_Reference.html?Highlight=kernel The main Kernel command for Citect Runtime information is the PageTable, which can be found https://www.citect.schneider-electric.com/webhelp/citect800/#Page_Table.html Regards Rob
