Automation Linux distributive of the project OpenSCADA

During of months of the OpenSCADA 0.9.6 releasing performed significant extension the Automation Linux Distributive:

• updating TDE to 14.0.13 and 14.1.0 — adaption all patches-fixes;

• initial appending the Calendar System from the World Creation at which year 2023 is 7531;

• fixing KDesktop, TDE HW Manager, noatun, TDESVN, basket, KGpg, KPDF, disabling thumbnails for video, than appending the new patched packages "tdelibs-trinity", "tdebase-trinity", "tdegraphics-trinity", "tdesvn-trinity" and "basket-trinity" to the distributive collection;

• some improving and updating KCalc, holiday_ua, korganizer;

• complete translation to Ukrainian for KDiff3 and showfoto;

• packages building with own patches for Debian 11,10,9,8,7 for finalisation the TDE 14.0 branch;

• switching the Debian 9 package base to the archive repository, after its official archiving;

• appending the Debian 11,10,9 distributives by packages of RHVoice — Speech synthesizer with many voices for ten languages;

• translation the...[подробнее]

Unification the associated output transports to the input one AND the generic output transport connection

The associated output transports to the input one is about accepting connections at initiative of the external hosts and the localhost is already requesting for these ready connections. That is allowing for holding one server with real-static IP and many external clients with dynamic and "grey" IP. What implemented currently only for Transport.Sockets.

The generic output transport connection is appending the previous mechanism by a convenient way of connection to an external host with automatic transports creation at the normal connections and selection need transport from the external host initiative at its connection identifier.[подробнее]

Productivity optimisation of the VCA interface

By default OpenSCADA interface designed for work in some fast enough carrying-live period (100 ms) which suitable mostly for active local Qt-interfaces of the module UI.Vision with high reactivity and on fast enough networks at working with the visualisation server. But currently you can tune your interface to achieve the loading decrease in times.[подробнее]

Complete revision the "API" document in the section "Control Interface and dynamic tree of program objects"

And the section "Service commands-functions" moved there as a subsection, the subsection "Service commands-functions" completely rewrote and appended by, and all these translated in Ukrainian.

The Control Interface is included in the TCntrNode object and it covers all nodes of the dynamic tree of the program, allowing uniform control of the program regardless of the client tool used. The Control Interface is made on the basis of the XML markup language and for which you can come up with many ways to use.

The information hierarchical structure contains information about public control elements and it can be used to build user dialogs of the node's control of the program.

The dynamic part contains scripts for servicing requests to the control elements, which are described in the information structure, and to hidden control elements in the form of service functions used for unified access to the node.

Messages Translation — multilingualism

OpenSCADA is a multilanguage interface program that supports the static messages translation from its foundation.

In version 0.8, it was provided by some elements of the dynamic massages translation, that is the possibility of building the user interface on several languages in different Web-sessions mostly. After a while there was appended the generic messages manager.

In version 0.9.5 the dynamic translation was completely revised and significantly expanded with stabilisation of all those changes up to 0.9.6 version. After that changes, there performed the Significant Unification the Common SQL-code for expanding the behaviour on all SQL DBs.

As the apogee of the expansion there became of creation the followed manual "How to Create multi language...[подробнее]

Interstation reflection the OpenSCADA data

The interstation data reflection provides of transferring values and messages of the data acquisition sources between the hierarchical stations, and what performed by the module DAQ.DAQGate. During update 0.9.5 and up to update 0.9.6 there performed a series of significant improvements:

• common refactoring in representing the remote data, collisions resolving, horizontal redundancy and monitoring all that;

• optimization of transferring the concomitant messages to the up level and implementing the messages transferring to the lower level stations, also as the message sublevels and unification the message categories;

* implementing the asynchronous writing with guaranty of delivering the values and messages.[подробнее]

Complete revision the document How to Create module

This manual is made to help in building the modules for OpenSCADA. The module creation may be required if you wish to add the support for new data source or other extension to OpenSCADA. Since OpenSCADA is an extremely modular system, all interfaces of interaction with the external environment are implemented by expanding it with modules of following types:

• databases;
• communication interfaces, transports;
• protocols of the communication interfaces;
• data sources and data acquisition;
• archives-history (messages and values);
• user interfaces (GUI, TUI, WebGUI, speech, signal ...);
• additional modules, special.

The low level devices library of the DAQ-source templates appended by a template of the RDTech devices implementation

The RDTech (RuiDeng) UM24C, UM25C and UM34C are low-cost USB pass-through power measurement devices, and support a decent number of collection features, as well as full control via Bluetooth. This template implements most exposed commands and data collection available by the device's Bluetooth interface.

This template in first time uses the new output transports connection function SYS.Transport.outAt() and the Bluetooth interface for the data acquisition.

Total complexity: 0.3 HD

Common Conception of the Data Storage

The Data Storage in OpenSCADA initially built on different Data Bases and the Configuration File for the common, but interaction between these essences was not very clear also as managing the storage data between different storages.

So, in version 0.9.5 there was performed the storage unification what provides in whole for:

• direct storage and specifying the Generic Storage "*.*" as a combination of the Configuration File and the work Data Base;

• control for the data presence on different storages and providing for a function of managing-removing only data without the control object and from previous storages; priority of the DBs in their accessing;

• limiting of all configured-selected Data Bases only by the form "{Type}.{DB}" without a table here, that specified-bound to the object ID;

• all the data accessing functions moved under the conception.[подробнее]

Changes in the OpenSCADA execution environment and the Automation Linux Distributive

There, during of months of the OpenSCADA 0.9.5 releasing, performed significant changes in the execution environment and the Automation Linux Distributive:

• appending a new Debian 11 release for OpenSCADA build and as a new base for the Automation Linux Distributive;

• updating the TDE stable release to 14.0.11 and 14.0.12, with fixing some its additional issues and packages;

• appending a new Ubuntu 22.04 release for OpenSCADA building;

• appending a new hardware platform ARM64 on the Debian 11 base (not tested);

• removing-disabling of building for the Maemo 5 (Nokia N900) platform since the cross-compiler crashes constantly at least in two places of the OpenSCADA source code.[подробнее]
