Hello,
I'm trying to build an X-Y Scatter plot in FactoryTalkView ME 10.0. The only options for charts I've come across using the program have been Time-Trends.
Has anyone successfully built an X-Y Plot in FactoryTalkView ME before? I have been exploring using the ActiveX controls but they're not super intuitive, even after watching the Rockwell videos on the subject.
I should say the thing that makes this a little more difficult than the average project is: I am using a GE Rx3i controller, communicating to Rockwell software and eventually to a PanelViewPlus Performance through Kepware 5.19 running a GE Ethernet driver. Therefore we are using Symbolic Variables (pulling the tag information from the names in the PLC Program rather than creating tags in FTView to poll for data) so the Tags don't directly exist in FTView.
Any help would be appreciated, but I guess let's start with a successful X-Y plot, no matter what kind of tags or variables you were using. I just want to know if it's possible and we can go from there Thanks!
