Advanced OPC Data Logger Parser Issue

OS: Windows 7 64bit
Advanced OPC Data Logger: 2.6.10.119

On the filter page, there is no option to choose / define a parser.

A configuration back up is attached.

How do I resolve this?

[Arthur Grasin]

The parser is built-in. You don't need to change or configure it.

Okay. So then if I want to insert the data into the database using the SQL Professional Plugin, I have to add an INSERT statement into the SQL Queue?

I don't see any mappings to table columns.

[Arthur Grasin]

Yes, you need to add the INSERT statement. Your tags appear in mapping when you'll get these tags in the main window before.

Okay, thanks. Can I make it only INSERT data if a variable has been incremented?

I think I would use DISCARD_DATA_PACKET_IF, but I'm not sure on the condition as I do not know how to look at previous values of a variable.

It'd be something like DISCARD_DATA_PACKET_IF(current value <= previous value).

You need the Deadband filter plugin. But it will check all changes (increments and decrements). A more complex logic can be implemented with the Script Execute plugin.
