Automation Professionals is pleased to announce a release candidate for its NoteChart Module, now with support for annotations on charts in the Reporting module. This module determines if either Vision or Reporting is installed (or both) and adds its components to the corresponding designer palettes. The new ReportNoteChart component functions like the native Timeseries Chart, but with the data key property and other properties needed to display timestamped annotations.
This is a major version upgrade. Pricing will change to $500 when the release candidate becomes an official release. If you are a current user, review our upgrade policy here.
You will need to set up tag history on the gateway performance system tags for CPU and Memory utilization. Or tweak the sample report to look at some other trends.
Slight update to fix gateway loading when reporting is not present. Also makes mode bindable in Vision. And makes Maker-compatible (though not sure that matters).
Phil, I installed the NoteChart module and I can't seem to find it in the designer when I am in Reporting mode...see the attached screenshots. You can see I have the components in the designer for vision, but not reporting.
Hmm. Restart your designer and look at its console log for any suspicious exceptions.
Also, did you choose the correct module file for the version of Ignition? The break between v8.1.28+ and prior is entirely related to the Reporting module--use the wrong module file and ReportNoteChart will be broken.
Automation Professionals is pleased to announce a BETA of this module for Ignition v8.3. Over here with my other betas:
This beta has only been lightly tested, but was almost a trivial conversion from v8.1. (There are basically no breaking changes to Vision.)
Note: the EasyNoteChart feature that leverages the Time Series Database Cache module is untestable at the moment, as that companion module is heavily impacted by the new RPC serialization changes. (I've pushed back its forecast to January.)
