I was hoping someone could assist me in creating my little project.
I'm afraid I don't have any experience in programming and have only started with Node-Red since a few weeks.
I understand for someone with experience my questions wil probably be enoying but I guess I have to start somewhere.
What I'm trying to do is create a web-application on Node-Red networked with a Siemens LOGO 8 to control a network input.
So far I got a communication up and running and a button on the standard node-red-dashboard controling my PLC.
The installation of uibuilder was successful and I have the standard uibuilder page active.
I'm now trying to create a empty page with just one button on/off to control my LOGO.
I'm not sure how to proceed after draging the UIbuilder in to the flowchart.
My guess is I have to change the HTML code and some other scripts, this is the part where my knoweledge is insufficiant at the moment.
Am I right by thinking the code has to be changed for a single on/off button on a page?
Does UIbuilder the node have to be in the same position as my Q1 button?
I appreciate your advise on keeping it basic but I would really like to go the step further. I'm sure once I can look in to a working example I'll be able to slowely find my way in the coding proces.
This might be a misplaced comment, but looking at your profile you seem like the person that could get me on my way.
Are you willing to help me out on this and maybe a few other questions? It will take an hour or two for sure but I'm more then willing to contribute for your valuable time.
I can understand the urge to try all sorts of things out, and to start using more advanced features, but as a beginner with very little coding or Node-RED experience, it's best to start slowly - go through all the tutorials and videos, try out some simple things with basic nodes and the standard dashboard first.
I've got over 40 years of coding experience but as a newbie to Node-RED I spent a bit of time going over the basics, and it helped a lot in my understanding.
