Added capability to create and copy pen files. Ease of use increased and time spent at the terminal troubleshooting decreased.
Trend Chart can now show all 10 channels in channel display Window of Trend Chart. No more need to scroll up/down to see entire array of channel data displayed on the screen. One look at the bottom will tell you what you have displayed.
Greatly enhanced search, sort, and filter capabilities and usability of the features in Tabular Event History. Makes using it much more intuitive, easy to use, and quicker to find what you are looking for. Decreased troubleshooting time.
Added driver for Siemens Industrial Ethernet protocol, allowing communication to S7-200, 300, & 400 devices. Wider communications to other devices allows for more information to be incorporated into PV.
All priority bugs addressed. Makes program more reliable, dependable, and repeatable.
Created Windows Installation utility program for installing software on Viewer or Lite platforms. Would help customers wishing or needing to install software on computers after a failure or in a new situation. Easy installation of viewer software on other Windows-based machines. Information can be more easily shared amongst users.
Upgraded Configurator Utility to support above changes. Allows novice users to easily alter configurations should changes be required after installation.
Operating System Changes to Collector Benefits
A better file system that removes the need to scan the hard drives on a reboot situation. This reduces the reboot time to seconds instead of minutes. Improved performance for data collection, storage, and retrieval of data, shorter re-boot time on collector.
A better operating system kernel provides faster and more efficient reading and writing to the hard drives. This could be a performance increase in largely loaded systems.
A new and improved Samba should bump performance slightly.
A new and improved WebMin should facilitate troubleshooting.
