Version 3.0j 4th April 2003 =========================== Notes Following an upgrade from beta versions before 3.0d, you MUST create a new default configuration. Failure to do so may cause unexpected behaviour. The latest Engineering release of iTools is now required to allow for connections to 5000 Series devices. There was a problem in 3.0g with the 5000 acting as a master to another 5000. The problem arises because the master comms reads channel information from a 5000 slave - so you get channel descriptor, scaling etc as well as PV from the point being read. To be able to maintain this functionality we need to set the reading of this data to be a manual process (a demand read). This method has an added benefit of not using the comms bandwidth by continually reading information such as channel descriptor - which in normal operation should remain static. This change in how we read this data will now move into a second phase of Master Comms and not be available in the first full release. The 5000 slave will, therefore, act as other slaves where you will need to configure the comms channel parameters manually at the master.

Version 3.0c 18th February 2003 =========================== Notes The latest Engineering release of iTools is now required to allow for connections to 5000 Series devices. Reading of Bit fields within Registers (not coils) will be added in a subsequent beta. We do NOT plan to support writing of Bit fields in version 3.0. New Features None Issues Closed Implemented new user defined feature allowing for register values to be used in pre-defined profiles. Profile support improvements. Fix for digital alarms for digital input channels. Support for Auto Detect of Evolution slaves. Removed the ability to write cyclic alarm setpoints to both 5000 and 4000 slaves. Correct enabling of Jobs by option for output channels and acyclics. Increase Java heap size as an attempt to improve product performance. Changes to use of master comms socket to localhost to minimise the chance of closing the socket. Make serial master much more reliable by flushing the input stream before sending a write request. Add to master comms debugging tools the ability to get debug info ober a TCP socket. Update the IDM version text so that iTools can determine masters that handle talk through.
