PROBLEM FIXED

19951

{Design}

Navigating Tags exposed by the a OPC UA Server suing the OPC UA Broswer window would cause Movicon to freeze, If Tags were embeded in a tree structure path.

19600

{Redundancy}

When enabling the 'CRF21-Part11 Electronic Signature' in a Redundant system, tags in the field were zeroed upon teminating the synchronization between redundant Server after restoring one or two servers.

19691

{Screen Management}

A memory Leak would verify when frequently changing a referenced screen of an Embedded Screen object.  

19402

{Screen Objects}

Movicon would freeze loading a Trend object set to 'Read data in Background' (loaded in Separate Thread) when opening the Screen if the 'Recording' property of the  'TrendCmdTarget' interface was set at 'True' in the Trend's SymbolLoading while loading data provoking the invalidation of the datalogger connected to the trend. Now, the effect of the Recording property is disabled in cases where the thread loads data in a separate thread.

19375

{Alarm Management}}

Filters set using the "AlarmWndCmdTarget" interface in the Alarm Window and Banner Window would not get applied in runtime.

 

19799

{Comm.Drivers}

When importing 'Structure Protoype' variables while using the Wizard to create a new project, they would get added to the project resource tree directly instead of in the Structure Prototype Resource.

 

18124

{DataLogger Management}}

The Data Logger set to record 'on change' and with Columns to record the connected Variable's TimeStamp would stop recording the Variable's value if  the TimeStamp changed only (this did not happen in previous Movicon versions).

 

19370

{Design}

If the 'Show Window Border' option of the startup screen was disable, launching the application with full screen, the border belonging to Movicion's home page would still display when receiving focus.  Movicon's home page window border no longer shows when starting up at full screen with the 'Show Window Border' disabled.

 

19624

{Design}

Opening several pop-ups in sequence in Modal mode, the  "_SysVar_:ActiveScreen" system variable would not update when the last pop-up closed.

 

19566

{Design}

In Arrest mode a 'No error message available'  window would show caused by using simulation system variables in expressions of Child projects which used variables from the the Parent project.  This errror message or the 'failed to load document' message would show during the application startup phase due to the use of  '#uses' clauses in diverse VB Script that started up simultaneously and shared the #uses with the same resources.  This last problem would also happen during runtiime when activating the Command List when running many scripts.

 

19270

{OPC Communicatin}

A considerable amount of memory was consumed when the 'Watchdog' property from the OPC DA Client Resource was set with a value different from zero.  The Memory Leak worsened when the Watchdog's time value was lessened.  

 

19820

{OPC Communication}

Setting a Password level different from zero in the 'OPC Server Access Level' property from the 'OPC UA Server' group property of the project's 'Real Tiime DB' resourse would block access to users with Password levels lower than the one set.  To make this work correctly, the password management in the Server (Movicon) must be enabled.

 

19824

{OPC Communication}

If the OPC Server Access Level' from the 'OPC Server' group of the 'Real Time DB' resource was set with a value different to zero, access to the OPC UA Server  would be given to non-existing project users set in the 'User Name' and 'Password' properties.

 

20167

{OPC Communication}

The 'TimeStamp' value sent by the Movicon OPC DA Server to OPC DA Clients would greatly offset the difference in time between the PC's local time and the UTC:  "LocalTime" + "Time Zone" + "Legal Time".

 

19480

{OPC Communication}

A runtime, se la proprietà "Gestione Tag in Uso" del "Real Time DB" era impostata a False, i Tag OPC UA Client del progetto non si collegavano col Server OPC UA.

 

15558

{OPC Communication}

The connection to a B&R's OPC UA server would fail when using the OPC Server UA browser window if the 'User Name and Password' authentication was performed with the "Security Level" set at 'None'.

 

19430

{OPC Communication}

The Movicon OPC Client DA would resend the 'True' Boolean value  as '-1' in a Networkking configuration (or Redundancy) if sent by the Movicon Server and as '1' if sent by the Movicon Client.  Now, both the Movicon Server and Client projects send the '-1' value as a 'True' Boolean value.

 

19487

{OPC Communication}

Connecting to the Server UA Sample Server, some Variant data types not supported by Movicon 11, would generate an exception when sending new data.  Now selecting Varian type tags is limited to those containing array types supported by Movicon.

 

19668

{OPC Communication}

Sudden variable value changes in the OPC UA Client would cause the OPC UA Server to assume the wrong values. This problem began following the fact that notifications arriving from the OPC UA Server were not syncronized with the variable input.  text.  Two properties have been added to make the OPC Tag Readable and/or Writable as required.  For example, if the variable is control with a timed impulse it must be set in Write only to make it insensitive to latencies of variation notifications arriving from the Server.

 

20084

{Report Management}

The "Signed DWord" data type was intepreted in the report as an "Unsigned DWord" when the Data Base type  was a  "SQL Server".  This could be fixed by using a work around to change the  query in a way so that the DWord field with sign would convert to String eg: "Convert(VARCHAR,[ColumnName]) As 'ColumnName'.

 

19216

{Scheduler Resources

The Scheduler resource set with the Weekly planner with 00:00 to 23:59 hours for 7 days a week, would not execute Off commands at the termination of the last day and would not execute any other commands for the following days without interacting with the Scheduler Window. .

 

20039

{Screen Objects}

When using the Preload Screens property containing Trends or Data Analysis objects, the Mouse pointer would blink alternating between the hour glass and arrow image ata project startup.

 

16866

{Screen Objects}

A sequence of particular operations (inserting a new row and then selecting it) in the Movicon Grid object would delete all the records from the table when pressing the Grid's 'Delete' button.

 

18842

{Screen Objects}

Pens set Retangle type in the "Data Analysis" object would get designed overlapping each other due to their sizes thus making the chart unreadable.

 

20161

{Screen Objects}

When the period showed in the Trend with "Nr. Minor X Ticks" and "Nr of Major X Ticks" values set in the Trend object to show a value, recorded by the connected Data Logger, in correspondence with each tick, the same time instance would get shown on the X axis during Runtime.

 

20073

{Screen Objects}

A popup opened with a 'Keep Pressed' command would re-open spontaneously after closing.

 

19293

{Screen Objects}

The Horizontal 'D' type switch had an inverted graphics animation in respect to the variable value for which it showed the 'ON' image when the connected variable vlaue = '0'.

 

19459

{User Interface

Clicking on an object's scrollbar to scroll it, if the mouse moved away from the scrollbar the scrolling would stop.  Now, scrolling only stops when releasing the mouse key indifferently to where the mouse is situated.

 

20083

{User Management}

Setting the value = '1' in a user's  'Password Duration (Days)" parameter, the password would expire 48 hours after the user was created instead of 24 hours or the day after.

 

19398

{WinCE}

When the project 'Gestures' option had been enabled, when touching the Touch Screen, the cursors coordinated did not match the position touched by the finger.  In addition, after closing a system window, (eg. Numeric Pad or Login Window), the first click on an object (eg. a button object) would not get intercepted by that object without re-clicking it again.

 

19807

{WinCE OS}

A screen containing a horizontal Trend with connected pens connected to a project variable instead of a  Data Logger, would not open properly by freezing it's graphical interface.  (This problem started when resolving case 17055).

 

19215

{WinCE OS}

A considerable amount of memory was consumed in the Windows CE systems when clicking an Internal Report's 'Save Internal Report' command.

 

19860

{WinCE OS}

Tapping the 'Click' event within an object's VB Script context with the Gesture property enabled and the Multi-Touch disabled, the event would not get executed.

 

19763

{WinCE OS}

Enabling the Multi-touch and using the Touch panel in an object to activate an  "OnRelease" command, this command would activate even when releasing the finger tip  outside the control.  This would only happen in Windows CE using finger tips and not the mouse.

 

18406

{WinCE OS}

When a Display object had been enbled, the Numeric Pad in Windows CE Multi-touch systems would open when clicking outside the Display.

 

19206

{WinCE OS}

If a cascade of Popups opened in Frame mode when editing data using the Numeric Pad, they would go in background in respect to the background screen therefore hidden from view when closing the Pad.  Now they remain in the foreground in respect to the background screen when closing the Pad.
