Set/ Change IP Adresse in Mappview

Ask Questions
1

Good evening,

I want to change the ip Adresses of my plc. In order to do it by using asarcfg is not the problem.
Is there any widged which i can use to get directly the ip Adress e.g. 10.10.10.5 complete with the dots and also formated to take it directly to the fubs or do i need to place a couple numeric input widgets in a row to show each of the four numbers of the adress.

Thanks

There is not a specific Mapp View widget or VC4 control that would handle this formatting automatically.

The general VC4 solution is to use a String Control with formatting checking upon completion, or 4 Numeric Controls again some focus control, and formatting upon completion.

For mapp View I think most would use Text Input widget, again with some formatting checking upon completion, though you may be able to do something with event handling but Iā€™m not sure.

In theory you might be able to create a compound widget that does this functionality in a crude way, but if you are looking for a widget specifically for a IP4 address formatting, you probably need to look for using the mapp View 6.3 mapp Script, or the mapp View Widget development toolchain.

when i use the TextInput Widget for this issue. Is it possible - like in VC4 - to change the Keypad to a numeric Keypad so that only numbers and ā€œ.ā€ are available?
