Tai,
Didn't even think of creating a button control for that. Worked exactly how I wanted it to.
Thanks

No. There is not a hot key press to reset the peak value. but there is the "PeakHoldSeconds" property that, when set to "0" will never reset the peak value. You could link a Button control to the "PeakHoldSeconds" properties value to manually control a reset.

Jim,
It's good to know that it wasn't just something weird we were doing!
If you'll have the fix out next week, that's good enough for me. I'll
email you with my information.
Thanks!

Matt,
Actually, there is one more option. We've made a "patch" to the 6.5
IadsPrimitives dll that will fix this problem. If you're interested, we
could send you that dll.
Of course, you'd have to install it on every PC with Iads, but if you're
limited to a control room, that task would be fairly easy. In fact, I think

Matt,
Unfortunately, this was a bug injected into the 6.5 software while
attempting to fix another problem. We're terribly sorry :(
6.6 is being released next week which fixes the problem. If you let me know
your company name we'll be sure to ship the update next week. In fact, we
can upload it to your ftp site.

Matt,
The "ShowMagRestValue" draws a line at the value set by the
"PeakResetValue" property. So if the "PeakResetValue" is set to 50,
setting the "ShowMagResetValue" to "True" will draw a line (for
reference) at the 50 mark.
If you are not seeing any line, check to make sure the
"PeakResetValue" is within the "ScaleMin" and ScaleMax" range of the

Resetting Bar Graph Peak Values

2009-12-17T20:26:52Z

Is there a way to reset the peak values in the bar graph without having to go into MultiGraphControl properties? Also what does the "ShowMagResetValue" do? I change between true and false and see no change.
Thanks,
Matt

We just upgraded out clients from 6.3 to 6.5, and one of the things
that doesn't seem to work anymore is using \n to get a newline in
things like the ActiveX Text primitive. We have quite a few of these
labels on the screens we've built so far, and I can't seem to find any
way to get these multiline values now.

Detecting and Correcting Bad Data

2009-12-08T21:47:22Z

Hello,

I've noticed that there are a large number of people lately concerned with
correcting bad data (spikes, etc). It seems to be a hot topic. Anyway, I
just wanted to write some background info about the subject down to help get
everyone on the same page.

When we see spikes or bad data, sometimes it's hard to pinpoint the source

Kathy, in fact the avionics people we are working with on this RS422
line had a good mind to put a 32-bit CRC at the end of their message.
I have yet to ask which CRC 'polynomial' their are using but I would
think that could be an input into the CRC checker feature. Because I
expect the problem to be noise in the 422 line that I am reading, I

If the "0.0" case is the only real problem and your data isn't about
0.0 normally, a derived equation might help...

HI Grant,

Take a look at our spike detection/removal technique that removes
spikes that occur within the exepcted range of data, here is a prior
