  • WR21 Factory Reset

    I have a customer who has locked their WR21 after too many incorrect password attempts. I'm assuming the only way to recover from this is to reflash the panel, as described in section 3 of the software manual. I have not been able to find the image file called out in the manual. Can anyone help with the location of this file? Or is this something I need to request through a different channel?

  • Boot Ubuntu on WR2110 Panel

    Has anyone successfully booted a WR2110 HMI into Ubuntu from an SD-Card? According to the Manual from Advantech (manufacturer of the Panel), this should be possible -> see attached picture down below. Sadly I'm unable to locate the needed pre-built Image. Advantech refuses to help me because I'm working with a rebranded rexroth unit...

  • Button to enable velocity change

    Hello, I'd like to write in an input field a new value for a PLC variable, but I'd like it to not update the PLC variable until I press a button. So used an input field widget linked to a internal variable and a button which should write the value of the internal variable to the PLC one. But it seems not to work. Could you please help me? I've tried to attach other screenshots of the widget and the variable but it seems I can't

    CtrlX HMI scroll issue on chromium - Smart Function Kit

    Hello, We are using SFK4P and we'd like authorized personel to use it from station PLC's HMI. Issue is, as far as we see, kiosk mode only works for one website. We cannot add second kiosk or second webstation app to kiosk so they can switch between WebIQ and SFK dashboards. So, we thought we could use chromium for SFK dashboard. Problem is, we cannot scroll on SFK page. It just doesn't work. We cannot see live values or if you are logged out, cannot log in because button is on bottom left and we cannot see it. Do you have a solution for that? Changing website address of kiosk's webstation settings is not user friendly so customer doesn't want to do it. We are open to suggestions. Thank you for your support. If forum goes read only and if messaging works, you can contact me via DM too. It's really appreciated.

  • Recommendation tablet model

    Hello, A customer asks me for a recommendation for an industrial tablet model. The machine is large and the WebIQ project would have about 700 Tags. The client wants it to be industrial (case reinforcement, extra battery, etc) does not want to use domestic. Someone could recommend me one. Thanks.

  • Setup WR21 with Codesys WebVisu

    Hi, I’m new to PLC programming and am currently trying to design an HMI using Ctrlx Codesys and Webvisu. I have obtained the Webvisu license, but I cannot find any documentation on how to display the HMI or set up the WR21 with the Ethernet port for display. Can someone assist me with this as I am a complete beginner? Additionally, I encounter an error when I run Webvisu on my local machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • WebIQ does not connect with OPC UA Server

    Hi, we are working on a Projekt for controlling a robot with a CtrlX Core. Unfortunately, there is a problem with the connection between the WebIQ and our OPC UA server, running on CtrlX Core. All certificates and licenses are instaled and active. The error shows in the WebIQ-Designer in the IO-Manager as "waiting_for_reconnect" (screenshot atached). We already checked the Port and IP for the communication. The Variables are currently shown, but while running the WebIQ-Projekt, they are not set in the CtrlX Core program. (WebIQ-Runtime and -Designer Version: 2.15.9) Questions gladly Many thanks in advance With kind regards

  • auto refresh timeout on startup of WR panels not working

    Today I updated my WR15 to RC7 and tried to delay the start using the setting on the URL page for Kiosk mode. The screen now tries about 20 times to establish the link. But this only takes about 30 seconds. X3 takes about 3 minutes to boot. So the browser just faults to 404. See video attached. Is there something I am missing?

  • VPB equivalent with ctrlX

    In VPB40.4, there was two display port, CDI & DP. And it was possible to connect monitor directly on Display port and another ctrlX HMI DE ( R911404268) on CDI+ port. And so external monitor was only used for monitoring and HMI was used for machine operations. How can we do similar configuration with ctrlX CORE or ctrlX IPC??

  • Problem with WebIQ Trend on WR21

    Hello, I have the issue that WebIQ Trends showing up different on two different devices. The server runs on a CORE X3. On the picture attached I had connected a laptop (the trends look how they should) and a WR2110 (the trends look faulty). On the WR21, the trends are not shown historically but show the actual values over the complete time interval (e.g. 1 minute, no affect of changing the interval). There is a different behaviour in some other points too: When unchecking and re-checking some trends via the Trens Select on both devices, the y-axes are grouped the way initially defined only on the laptop, not on the WR21. In case I only selcet one trend to be shown, the laptop shows one fixed y-axis and the moving trend. On the WR21 the trend remains in the middle of the widget and the y-axis is moving instead. Setup: X3 with 1.20, WR2110 RC7, WebIQ 2.15.7 (both, designer and server). The devices are offline but time is synchronised (on CORE via browser, on WR21 manually). Any suggestions from you on how to fix that issue?

  • WR21 cannot update to RC7

    Hello, I have a WR2115 that I had succesfully upgraded from the RC2 to the RC4, However now I have downloaded the RC7 from the website and using the same procedure as before it is not working, If i enter the OTA.apk and I press on "Update" it shows us like a progress bar that stops at 1% or 5% and then automatically the OTA.apk and this progress bar pop-up fade away and I go back to the starting menu Sometimes it returns this error, I have also tried to power off and power on the screen and same result, I have also tried to upgrade the OTA.apk application, because maybe it was different between the RC4 and the RC7, but same happens, Does anyone have experienced this? How can I solve it? Many thanks,

  • Web Station - Security Warning

    When initially accessing a WebIQ visualization on a WR21 panel via the Web Station app a security warning will display. I believe this is casued by a certificate issue, which is discussed in this post. Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be any way to eliminate the warning by importing a certificate into the Web Station app like you can with Chrome. Is there some method to bypass this that I'm not aware of? If not, are there plans to address this in subsequent versions of the Web Station app/panel firmware?

  • Multiple button control

    Hello, Is it possible for hardware (e.g. Rexroth screens) and software (e.g. WebIQ) to perform two actions at the same time by pressing two individual buttons? So, like the example below, the buttons to run the motors should be able to be pressed to run the motors individually AND also at the same time. For example: press button 1 to run motor 1, press button 2 to run motor 2 (at the same time), release button 2 to stop motor 2, release button 1 to stop motor 1. Regards, Mike

  • File Access in Kiosk Mode

    I have a WR21 panel that is running in kiosk mode and connected to a WebIQ visualization hosted on a ctrlX Core. The visualization uses WebIQ's integrated recipe handling, which includes importing and exporting recipe files. This process works fine on the panel's Chromium browser but not in the kiosk mode web viewer. Is this the intended functionality of kiosk mode? I understand the necessity of locking a user out of most OS functionality but I expected file access would be possible, albeit in a more limited manner(maybe just to the 'Downloads' folder?). If this isn't intended, is there a timeline for adding file IO support for kiosk mode?

  • First Use WR21 and WebVisu

    Hopefully some nice easy questions... My first use of WR2107 and WebVisu (do not have hardware yet so unable to test before developing screens) and haven't found much documentation so please could you answer the following: 1. WR2107 screen resolution is 1024 x 600 so was going to develop WebVisu screens in same resolution. However do I need to allow for any space for browser frame/window or is it possible to launch browser without border? 2. How would you configure browser to auto start to correct webpage on power cycle? 3. What browser is installed on WR2107? 4. Any other configuration hints? Many thanks!
