Hello, @Kurt.Larson
I’m having issues with displaying tags on the PowerChart in Perspective. I’m using Demo Ignition 8.3.2. On the chart, I want to show the water level and the on/off status of both pumps.
For the first station, the data is displayed correctly on the PowerChart. The only problem is that for float values, the is_historical property is not shown. After speaking with an Ignition expert, I learned that this issue should be fixed in version 8.3.3. This station is located at a remote site, and communication is via MQTT Sparkplug B.
The second station is connected for testing in the workshop. Real-time data (water level and on/off status of both pumps) is not displayed correctly on the PowerChart in Perspective. Data is either missing or delayed—I’m not exactly sure. MQTT tags work flawlessly; I have no issues with them.
The second station is an exact copy of the first one. Everything is the same: PLC program and the entire Ignition Perspective project. On the second station, I only changed the tags; everything else remained the same.
The tags themselves work without any problems and show no errors. I configured Tag History identically for both stations. The only difference is the Edge Node ID, so the stations can be distinguished.
I’m currently using MySQL for the database, but once everything works, I plan to switch to PostgreSQL. Data from both stations is being written to the same database.
I suspect this might be a bug in version 8.3.2, considering that the entire setup for both stations is identical, including tag configurations and PowerChart settings.
Could you check if this is a bug in this version, or do I need to change some settings?
