Acknoledge Wizard in WinCC OA 3.15

Post by curtisgibson »

When using the acknowledge wizard for any given object, I am trying to insert datapoint elements and adding them to the acknowledgement list. For an object, e.g. INF, I added the datapoint "$dpINF.alarms.fault" and add to the acknowledgement list.

When I move on to the next object, using a blank acknowledge script, and try to add in a different datapoint element for SEN object, e.g. "$dpSEN.alarms.fire", this can be added to the acknowledgement list. However when I then go back to view the INF objects acknowledge script which was previously done, this script has been overwritten with the last imported datapoint element which was the SEN dp.

Is this a bug with WinCC OA 3.15, or is there anyway to stop this?

Hi,
I was able to reproduce a similar behavior but not exactly in the same way as you wrote. With your description I was not able to reproduce this problem.
I did the following:
1- For an object ( e.g. a rectangle), I added the text "$dpINF.alarms.fault" in the acknowledgement list.
2- I move on to the next object with a blank acknowledgement list. I let the list empty and simply clicked on “finish” --> a popup with the text “You haven´t selected any data point! Do you want to delete the acknowledgement?” appeared --> I clicked on “No”
3- the acknowledge list in the first object is now blanc! But this is only a display error- “internally” the script is still saved correctly. If you restart the GEDI than the list is displayed correctly for all objects.

This is a bug. I made an entry in our internal database and forwarded it to our developers

Could you please check you panel after restarting the GEDI if the acknowledge lists are still filled correctly?
Can you reproduce the behavior exactly as you wrote?

BR,
Mousser

Sorry for the confusion description.

Yes, you are correct in your description. Once I had posted the thread I later found out that the script was still correct however it was being displayed wrong on the wizard.

Thanks for your help.

Just as information.
If you want to use a $-parameter in combination with a dp element in one of your scripts you cannot use the syntax which is used in the dialog for the acknowledge script.
The dialog is transforming $dp.element into $dp + ".element" which is the valid syntax.
