New and significantly updated modules
The new version has added new modules and significantly updated a number of present ones:
- New modules added:
- MMS(IEC-9506) (DAQ.MMS) — a module of supporting for data exchanging at the protocol "Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS, IEC-9506)".
- Comedi (DAQ.Comedi) — a module of supporting the data sources of the real time (library "Comedi"), which are based on the data acquisition boards of different manufacturers and are installed on the buses: ISA, PCI, PCMCIA and USB.
- SMH2Gi (DAQ.SMH2Gi) — a module of implementation of access to hardware modules of the data sources of PLC Segnetics SMH2Gi,SMH4 for "MC", "MR", and also for interaction with the original environment "SMLogix".
- Fastwel IO (DAQ.Fastwel) — a module of data exchanging with the hardware modules of Fastwel IO.
- FT3 (АПСТМ) (DAQ.FT3) — a module of data exchanging with the PLC АПСТМ, АСДКУ, СУАП.
- GPIO (DAQ.GPIO) — a module of accessing to GPIO of the single-board PC like to Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi and other.
- Calculator on the Java-like language (DAQ.JavaLikeCalc) expanded for: support for internal functions, dynamic translation of messages and many other functions of the user programming interface in general.
- Data sources gate (DAQ.DAQGate) expanded by reflecting the messages associated with the selected data source.
- Data acquisition of OS (DAQ.System) expanded for the data sources: "File System", UPS, QSensor and the ability to separate slow sources from fast ones.
- ModBus ({DAQ,Protocol}.ModBus) expanded for support string, as a sequence of values of the registers.
- Client DCON (DAQ.DCON) significantly expanded for specific modules support.
- OPC-UA (DAQ.OPC_UA) significantly expanded for Publishes and to support for "Chunks" into client part of the service, the specific protocol code is separated from the library.
- Equipment of ICP_DAS (DAQ.ICP_DAS) significantly expanded, and in fact completely rewritten, for support all available ICP_DAS data acquisition boards for the series I8k, I-87k, on the ISA bus and unified types for standard modules of the I7k series.
- Siemens S7 PLC (DAQ.Siemens) significantly expanded its own implementation of ISO-TSAP.
- Diamond data acquisition boards (DAQ.DiamondBoards) significantly expanded, but in fact completely rewritten, to support all existing data acquisition boards from Diamond Systems.
- AMR devices АСКО (DAQ.AMRDevs) appended of support the counter Kontar (MZTA).
- All DB modules significantly expanded by the dynamic translation.
- Archiver to DB (Archive.DBArch) expanded by archiving several archives into one table and restoring the list of archives from information in the database.
- Archiver to FS (Archive.FSArch) added for supported the intermediate types "Int16", "Int32", "Int64", "Float", "Double", and appended by an absolute limit to the size of the archive on the disk.
- All transport modules extended for the pooling mode of the input transports and protocols.
- Sockets (DAQ.Sockets) expanded by the RAWCAN bus support and initiated connections of the input transports.
- Serial interfaces (Transport.Serial) expanded for the low-level bus I2C support; special user functions of the serial interface: "sendbreak", "TS", "DR", "DCD", "RI"; advanced control RTS for RS-485.
- Security Sockets Layer (Transport.SSL) expanded by support: TLSv1.1, TLSv1.2, DTLSv1.
- Own protocol of the program (Protocol.SelfSystem) expanded for hierarchical and multi-level targeting of requests to external hosts.
- HTTP (Protocol.HTTP) expanded for adapting to the user interfaces in the system dialogs and providing a generic API for building HTTP interfaces for both the user and the modules behind it.
- Program configurator (Qt) (UI.QTCfg) OpenSCADA control interface requests are moved to a different thread and improved for implementation of the control elements.
- Program configurator (Dynamic WEB) (UI.WebCfgD) expanded with a new design using CSS3 and the features of modern WEB browsers.
- Conception and the Visual Control Area (VCA) (UI.VCAEngine) expanded by: support for specific visualizer attributes of the widgets, implementation of the new-flexible mechanism of the user's notification, background (in a separate thread) execution of the document forming task, increase of the number of trends in one frame to 100 and support of the logarithmic scale for the primitive "Diagram".
- Operation user interface (Qt) (UI.Vision) expanded: to work on the network through the visualizer server; implementing a group of attributes specific to this visualizer; realization of the views "Tree", "Table" and extension of the type "Button", of the primitive "Form elements"; implementation of the view "XY" of the primitive "Diagram"; significant refactoring code of the primitive "Elementary figure".
- Operation user interface (WEB) (UI.WebVision) expanded for using CSS3 and the capabilities of modern browsers, in particular: added zoom to the available window browser space, implemented all the primitives of the unified interface.
- Functions library of the system API of the user programming environment (Special.FLibSYS) expanded by the functions and objects: "floatExtract", "md5", "tmSleep", the object "IO"; significantly expanded for the actual functions and objects: "dbReqSQL", "FFT", "strParse", "strDec4Bin".
