When accessing the mappView starting page a popup “loading texts…” is shown. How can this be suppressed? This is only the case, when it is running on the PLC not when using the simulator.
Thanks!
HI Carl,
is there any further information in the ARlogger?
Textsystem / Visualization

Hello Simon,
are there any news on this issue?
Might this happen in case of a large tmx file? Ours is almost 1MB (>3500 keywords). If yes, is there an easy way to identify and remove not used keywords?
Thanks,
Heiner
Hello Heiner,
I don’t know if there are any restrictions/recommendations regarding file size. Perhaps someone from B&R can help.
Since a PLC usually doesn’t have the performance you get on your development computer with ARsim, it’s imagineable that problems could suddenly arise.
You could reduce the size of the tmx file for testing and report back if it improves. You’ll probably just have some “missing texts” then.

Hi Simon,
thanks for the quick reply. What I tried so far was removing the tmx and the message disappeared.
I will get in touch with B&R and post any findings here.
Best Regards!

Hi Carl,
I’ve already see this on mappView, for my case it was that I have added an opcua server to the mappView config and when my external server wasn’t started I got this popup during the boot of the visualization. Did you have some OpcUa server declared in the configuration view ? (OpcUaServer.uaserver file)
I’m pretty sure mappView try to grab all texts available in the OpcUa server, even if it’s an external one.

Thanks for the hint. But I don’t have another Server configured.

Hi …
When opening a mapp View HMI, one of the first things happening is the retrieval of the texts from the Automation Runtime’s text system. If this process takes longer than 2 seconds, this message is shown - simply to indicate that the system is still working.
I’m afraid, there is no option to disable this message.
Usually retrieving the texts should not take that long - but at the end of the day, it is a combination of used PLC (performance), available idle time and of course how many texts you have.
One thing you might want to check are “missing translations”:
If you’re using different languages, you should have a translation for each text-id for each language. If a text in the requested language is missing, the text system tries to fill these gaps with texts from the “fallback language” and finally with texts from “en”.
This searching for missing translations takes some time … As more missing translations you have, as longer the retrieval of the texts will take.
What also slows down the retrieval of the texts, are references to other texts, variables or snippets … as these create an extra mile to go, too.

Thank you. This helps to optimize the configuration. Indeed one language is not yet complete.
