Welcome back. Here we discuss one powerful feature. Using Custom properties to set property values when screens are opened.
To read this feature in the help doc. go to help>>help doc >> search for “custom properties”.
In this video, I am going to be pulling data from a working plant to have our values show in real time. For company privacy, I will skip the part where I fill in the IP address:-). I also used the communication part to add a MODBUS TCP driver to our project. You can read about this driver and all other drivers in the help doc. available. There is a workaround to make your usage of this driver faster, but I will leave it out for now, for shortness sake.
This is a comparatively long video, but don’t be scared. In this video, I showed a bunch of important features and functionality during the process of doing our custom properties, using drivers, addressing in drivers, etc, watch closely.
