Overview
Many Geo SCADA drivers contain a protocol translator that can convert raw communications and I/O logs into HTML. This utility makes it easy run the appropriate translator for a particular log file from any browser. Support of this tool is provided informally via the Geo SCADA Forum at https://community.se.com/t5/EcoStruxure-Geo-SCADA-Expert/bd-p/ecostruxure-geo-scada-expert-forum
The files for 32 and 64 bit operating systems are attached below.
This requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable package to be installed. If not installed see this Microsoft page.
Setup
To allow easy access to the protocol translators from Windows® Explorer perform the following steps:
- Copy 'TranslatePicker.exe' onto your PC - suggested folder C:\Utilities
- Edit 'TranslatePicker.reg' to change the path (both of them) to wherever you copied 'TranslatePicker.exe' to (default is C:\Utilities)
- Merge 'TranslatePicker.reg' into registry using a right-click on the .reg file
Translating a Comms Log
You will now be able to right-click on a file in Explorer and select the "Translate (Default)" menu option to translate a comms log file using the default options. If the utility can determine the protocol from the filename it will automatically run the appropriate driver, otherwise it will display a dialog prompting you to select a driver from those that are installed.
