Hi,
I am using iX T10A panel and project developed for two controllers.Tags are assigned to both controllers
My question is how to select active controller through script.
At present we can change the active controller using button with action to change active controller.
Best regards,
Rajendra Mahajan

There is currently not a way to do that in script. I will add that to my feature request list.

Another possible solution is to use communication driver FX Series ADP/BD 5.07.00 and index the station number for tag(Using index register with internal tag) to communicate with desired controller.
Here the issue is that if the default station defined in communication driver is down HMI will not communicate to the other station set by index register! Why?
Is there any work around to change the default station number through script
Best regards,

There is not a way to change the default station number with script.
The problem you are seeing with the index register has been corrected. I will send you a beta version of the driver.
