How to view live IO values from PiCtory

Post by bmckean »

Hello,
I'm trying to troubleshoot a newly installed RevPi Connect+ system. The IO values are being read via Python with the "naruxde/revpimodio2" GitHub project and inserted into a local InfluxDB instance. The digital inputs stored in InfluxDB do not match what is expected in the field. I believe I found the problem but would like to verify the IO values before they are read by my python script and sent to Influx.

Is there a way to view live IO values from within the PiCtory web interface (specifically digital inputs)? I've poked around a bit and only found the "Value" fields in the "Value Editor" but they are always 0 and disabled/greyed-out.

Maybe I'm missing something but thank you in advance for any help.

Hi

No, it is not possible to view the live values in pictory. You could use piTest or the PLC watch modus of https://revpimodio.org/revpipyplc/ instead.
