Build 3.0.043

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

Release date: 2nd June 2015

 

Fixes and improvements:

 

Variables List:

Speed improvements
The Parameter Attribute Apply to all similar items when changing things in the 'L','A','S','R' columns is now OFF by default to avoid unintended setting of other parameters
Enhancements to multi-drag/drop 'vertical' to 'horizontal' flipping while using the Spread handles, including a better indication of when the flip might happen
When doing a multi-drag/drop while the 'grid' is disabled and then choosing Reset Spacing could cause a lockup

 

GDWs:

Parameters requested from a GDW were not optimally scheduled, causing occasional slow response times
Improved response time to values entered by a user when comms throughput is slow or overloaded.
The Screen Size Guide font color could be changed, but this was not being saved
Edit->Replace while Online with Live values did not refresh the screen correctly to reflect the new variable associations
Remember Window Positions used to require a dongle to be connected in order to work

 

Trend Charts:

When using variables to define Pen Scales, this could occasionally revert to Auto-scaling
Pen Scales from variables were not correctly using the backup fixed values in the case of the variables being unavailable over comms
Adding a Pen to a trend chart would also add similar items to Logging if the Apply to all similar items checkbox in the Parameter properties has been enabled

 

Recipes:

Recipe Download from a button could occasionally crash. This only affected some instruments.

 

Historical Replay:

Bar charts did not operate in Historical Replay if they were not positioned near other items on the screen

 

SpecView Networking:

SpecView Remote could occasionally crash just after loading a Project

 

Import Project:

Importing one project into another would not correctly interpret unique addresses for non-Modbus instruments in the projects

 

Drivers:

Modbus: Driver was pausing sometimes when writing to some parameters of type 'time'
Generic Modbus: Used to have a Primary Parameter at Reg 0, and if this register was unreadable, the whole block would be shut down over TCP/IP
Honeywell HC900: Import of HCDesigner files left out information that allowed Labels in SPS blocks to work correctly
Eurotherm 3500: New parameters added
Watlow StandardBus: Autodetecting these controllers would sometimes crash if scanning was stopped by the user before the scan was completed
Watlow StandardBus: Driver could crash when sending values to parameters that were unavailable due to the controller being switched off or disconnected
OPC: Some changes to the OPC driver for improved debugging
