How to get the location in Mobile UI ?

Post by amichon »

I'm looking for a way to get GPS coordinates or the indoor position from a bluetooth beacon in Mobile UI.

If you search for "geoOpen" in the WinCC OA Documentation for WinCC OA 3.17 you will find functions to access the geo information.
When you want to use these functions you have to load the CtrlMobile CTRL extension.

There are also some undocumented bluetooth functions, which start with 'bt'. But I do not know if it is sufficient to get the indoor position from beacons.
