  Visibility on interval
Posted by: mbabilon - 08-07-2026, 11:24 AM - Replies (4)

Hello,


I created a visualization with multiple graphics that are shown or hidden depending on a value.
In the simulation, the visibility works perfectly:

  • Value 1 → first symbol visible, all others hidden
  • Value 2 → second symbol visible, all others hidden
  • Value 3 → third symbol visible, all others hidden
However, in real operation, no symbol is visible when the value is 2.


Can someone help me?

  Datamailbox data loss on power cut
Posted by: heyjay - 27-05-2026, 08:13 AM - Replies (1)

Hello,

I'm using an ewon flexy 205 with historical logging and I configured datamailbox for our IOT application.

I discovered recently that I'm missing sometimes data.
After some investigations, I pointed the problem out. This happens when flexy loses Internet connection before a power cut. All data not sent between the Internet disconnection and the power cut are lost. If the module loses internet but reconnects before a power cut, then I don't lose any data.

So it seems the buffer is flushed when flexy is powered down or the datamailbox engine is not totally reliable.

In the same time, I'm using a MQTT BASIC script for another IOT application and I don't have the problem, all data are retrieved when ewon restarts and is connected back to Internet.

Does anyone can confirm if it's a known issue with datamailbox?

Thanks a lot

  Can't downgrade from v15.0s2 to V14
Posted by: FlamcoDaan - 07-05-2026, 01:22 PM - Replies (7)

Hello,

I'm trying to downgrade an Ewon Flexy205 15.0s2 to V14

I've searched the forum and it says I need to use Ewon Recovery (F7) in eBuddy.

But in eBuddy my Ewon Recovery is grayed out.

I've tried to use a SD card with other firmware but also no success.


Please help.

Kind regards,

Daan

  Simple Store & Forward:How to send missed data from a text file after WAN restoration
Posted by: leekhilk@ithena.ai - 23-04-2026, 09:01 AM - Replies (2)

Hi everyone,

I am currently using a Flexy 205 to collect data from PLCs via Modbus and OPC UA. I have a BASIC script that builds a JSON payload and sends it to my IoT platform using the REQUESTHTTPX command.

The Challenge:
Everything works well when the internet is connected. However, when the internet goes down, the REQUESTHTTPX command fails and the data is lost. I need a "Store and Forward" solution that is simple to manage.

My Required Logic:

  • I want to avoid complex system tools and handle this directly in my script using basic file logic:
  • Detection: If REQUESTHTTPX fails due to a network error, the script should identify that the internet is down.
  • Local Storage: Instead of losing the data, the script should append the JSON string to a simple text file on the Ewon (e.g., /usr/buffer.txt).
  • Restoration: Once the internet is back, the script should read that text file line-by-line and send the stored payloads to the server.

I want to keep this as manual and clear as possible so I can easily maintain the code. Any help or logic flows would be greatly appreciated!

  Enable webserver WAN side with firmware 15
Posted by: FlamcoDaan - 22-04-2026, 07:19 AM - No Replies

Hello,

in our factory we use Ewon Flexy's 205 in combination with ViewOn for dashboarding.

The dashboard is shown on several TV's with Amazon firestick.

The firesticks need to connect to the Ewon via WAN side connection to show the ViewOn page.
With firmware 15 the webserver is now closed on the WAN side and we have no dashboard.

Is there a way to enable this again?
otherwise we need to downgrade the Ewons to firmware 14.

Kind regards,

Daan

  Tag value rounding from 0.0054 to 0.1 during PRINT conversion
Posted by: leekhilk@ithena.ai - 21-04-2026, 02:52 PM - Replies (2)

Hello Community,

I am seeking guidance on a data precision issue I’m encountering with an Ewon Flexy 205.

The Setup:

Hardware: Flexy 205

Protocol: Reading tags via OPCUA.

The Observation: In the Flexy "Values" tab (UI), the tag Blower_A2_Spd_Ctrl_Mode correctly displays as 0.0054.

The Problem:
When I attempt to use this value in a BASIC script (either to print to the console or build an HTTP JSON payload), the value is being rounded aggressively.

PRINT Blower_A2_Spd_Ctrl_Mode@ // Output in console: 0.1


Any guidance from the experts here would be greatly appreciated!
