 +If Mervis DB fails to display data even if you configured everything correctly, it is probably caused by the fact Mervis DB does not have any logged data yet. Close the Mervis DB Viewer and wait until the first log is uploaded - the required time for this varies depending on communication intervals set for the PLC and DB, or on the history log interval. The interval can be synchronous (eg. with a fixed upload time) or asynchronous (the interval depends on how long it takes for data to be logged). If the issue persists even then, check Mervis DB login and password, make sure the address is set correctly and also make sure you [[en:​sw:​01-mervis:​updating-a-runtime-configuration-hidden|uploaded the configuration into the PLC]] correctly.
