Design

In cases where the project contained tens of thousands of variables, not all the project's resources that were modified during design mode and of which some failed to save while saving the project would get saved.  Now, in the event of a saving error, all the other resources are saved but the project will remain marked as to save with an asterisk character on its name, and a message will be printed in the System Log and the user will be notified with a message on screen.  

 

26113

OPC Communication

When browsing the OPC UA Server tags with a OPC UA Client browser, an exception would be raised despite the fact that the Data Type was allowed, it was not the Value Object Type.  

 

25580

Web Client

In cases of a HTML5 Web Client with HTTPs connection type, the Websocket Server component would freeze when Movicon was not started up as Service in Windows Server 2016.

27798

Alarm Management

When the Alarm text contained a "String ID" formatted for Multilanguage Log  translations (e.g. $(StringID), it would not get replace with the Active Language value in the "Alarm Banner".

 

28776

Design

The Variable Rename Manager function would not get applied to the Minimum and Maximum Variable properties of a Variable Command Type.

 

26466

Design

The Properties Window's '?' button would not open the Help for some of the project's resources.

 

28827

Design

String ID group cancellations in the new String Table were incorrect.  In addition, there were problems adding or removing columns and using the TAB and ENTER.

 

25067

Design

It was possible to enter values that exceeded the fixed range set for the variable properties.  It is now necessary to set both the Tag column and the name of the variable to be modified in it to verify the value range.  

 

25493

Design

The 'Screen Color Type' property from the Screen's Style>Advanced group properties would present a list of values that were incoherent to the actual context.

 

27982

Design

In the event that customized "Project Path" properties were invalid, the Resource and Log files would get directly save in the project's main folder.  Note: to save resources correctly for WinCE platform Projects, you will need to use the "C:\CustomPath" sintax (e.g. "c:\flashdvr\myPrjPath\Data").

 

27936

Design

It is now possible to encrypt the "Browsed.endpoint" file (used for memorizing Endpoints used when browing OPC UA Client Items) the moment in which the project resources are encrypted by means of the relative "Encrypted Project Resources" property.

 

25764

Embedded Report

The XY Trend object in Embedded Reports connected to a Data Logger based on Access would display an extra point not belonging to the recorded data.

 

25911

Networking

When changing Screens cyclically on the Client side, due to managing 'variable In Use', in Networking communications between Client and Server, the Server would not update variables when having to wait a few minutes to do so.

 

25169

Networking

The Networking Server would send incomplete Tag change notification XML strings to the Client.

 

26156

OPC Communication

A structure variable member's quality would remain set with the "Bad" at runtime when linked to an OPC UA Client item without entering into communication with the OPC UA Server.

 

25488

OPC Communication

The "BADNODEIDUNKNOWN (0x80340000)- The node id refers to a node that does not exist in the server address space." error would show when trying to browse OPC UA Client itmes towards an OPC UA Server of the CoDeSys 3.5 or Wago PLC.

 

26162

OPC Communication

Project Users with the same name as those used at OPC UA Client Browser Session level would overwrite the Password of the User set in the OPC UA Client Browser.

 

27612

OPC Communication

Some variables connected to an OPC UA Server would stop being updated during Screen input and output and an "Error setting not in use monitored item for Item '%s', Server '%s', Session '%s'" error descriptions relating to the OPC UA Client would show in the System LOG due to a wrong ID used for identifying the Tag for Variables In Use management.

 

25894

OPC Communication

It was impossible to browse items exposed by the CoDeSys OPC UA Server on the Raspberry Pi platform due to the Case 25488 problem.

 

28826

OPC Communication

When the OPC UA Items are imported, the Table of the Namespaces is now also saved and based on that table the NodeID of the imported Tags show the corresponding index. When connecting in runtime, the current Namespace Table is now read by the Server to verify whether the Namespace of the Tag to be exchanged has changed index or not.  If not, a NodeID is generated at runtime with the updated index. A ""Default Namespace" property has been added to the OPC UA Session resource.  In cases where Projects have been created with previous versions to the one currently being used, if the Namespace Table saved in the project does not exist, the Default Namespace string is used to determine the correct Namespace index in the table read from the OPC UA Server the moment the Client OPC UA connects.

 

26026

OPC Communication

A Tag linked to a OPC UA Server would not manage the Gain Factor and Offset set in the "Engineering Unit" properties.

 

27667

OPC Communication

The OPC UA Client session towards the OPC UA Server would close long after Windows had closed due to the fact that it was not possible to expressly define the "Session Timeout" default value.  To solve this problem, a "Session Timeout" property has been added at OPC UA Client Resource level and in the OPCUAClientSessionObjCmdTarget VBA interface. The "Session Timeout" is the Client Session's residence on the OPC UA Server and which is taken into consideration after the OPC UA Client has disconnected.

 

27836

OPC Communication

The OPC UA Client State Variable would not update after a OPC UA Client session Watchdog timeout.

 

25453

OPC Communication

If only one of Servers became unreachable, for whatever reason (turned off/disconnected..), in an architecture in which the project acts as an OPC UA Client of several OPC UA Servers, all the communications on the other OPC UA Servers would slow down even if not in error.

 

27151

OPC Communication

The OPC UA Client reconnection would create a new Session towards the Server instead of using the previously active one if not gone into timeout: the "Auto-Reconnection" is active for default.

 

28044

OPC Communication

When setting a project as OPC UA Server, the  Tags embedded in Sub-Groups of the same name would get exposed all together on the OPC UA Client side and not divided by group as declared in the OPC UA Server.

 

28063

OPC Communication

Memory would leak in Windows CE during the frequent writting of OPC UA Client Tags towards the OPC UA Server.

 

25954

OPC UA Client

Hot project changes would cause connection errors in the OPC UA Client stack.

 

25253

Redundancy

If network errors should occur, the Primary Server now ignores the variable values with 'Not Good' quality arriving from the Secondary Server.

 

16046

Screen Objects

When running a filter in the Alarm Window in a Networking Client configuration, the resulted filters Active Alarm list would take several minutes to show.  Now filter times on Client side are comparable to those on the Server side.

 

16229

VBA

The list of recipes displayed by the 'Recipe Manager Window" can now be put into alphabetical order using the new "SortIndexAsc" VBA property from the RecipeWndCmdTarget interface.  When this property is set to 'True', the recipe names listed in the Recipe Manager Window's Combo Box will be in ascending order and in descending order when set to 'False'.

 

28032

VBA Script

After changing language and using the LogonUser() function from a VB Script, the language would change again to the one previously set.

 

28228

Web Client

text entered in a Display object would show normally even though the object's "Password Style" option have been activated.

 

26658

Web Client

A Grid Object would freeze on the Client side when populated by VB Script due to a missing vertical scroll bar when loading the last inserted element towards the end.  This problem was not evident when the number of inserted was insufficient to make the Scroll Bar appear.  

 

27633

Web Client

A Trend displayed by the Web Client on a remote PC remoto would present historical data loaded from the Server DB with the local Client PC's date and time when opening the page but, as it acquired data in realtime, the temporal intervals presented the current time of the Serve and not of the Client PC.

 

26621

Web Client

In certain conditions, the Movicon Web Client App would open an empty page.

 

28164

Web Client

Data changes on the HTML5 Web Client side would open an "Input Box" that would not acquire focus.  Now, when data is changed, focus is set to the relative Input Box which opens to allow values to be entered.

 

27717

Web Client

Launching a HTML5 Web Client Session with a resized Browser window, it was possible to access the Project without specifying a User name and Password even though the Password management had been activated.  

 

25070

WinCE OS

The "Recipe Manager Window" would not show the custom error string if values that were out of range had been inserted.

 

27984

WinCE OS

Customized Paths of Project Resource folders would not get created when starting the project up in runtime on the target platform  Note: When using WinCE OS you will need to used the "C:\CustomPath" syntax (e.g. "c:\flashdvr\myPrjPath\Data") to save resources correctly.
