TOP Server Release Note (5.2.133.0) February 18, 2010 Administration Interface
Added support for OPC UA Configuration management
From the Settings | Configuration tab added ability to enable remote connections to support Exchange feature of UA Configuration Manager (secure by default).
Configuration Interface
Added support for OPC UA Project Configuration
Fixed failure to close the channel diagnostics window attached to a recently deleted channel.
Fixed "Runtime Update Failed" messages following tag duplication, object paste.
Fixed the print button in the event log print preview.
Resolved issue where the DCOM setting ‘Identity’ for the Configuration Client was not retained when "The launching user" option was selected.
Updated project handling logic for case where a Read/Write user was not given a warning to save a modified project offline before loading new project.
Updated project handling logic to prevent an update to the Runtime when connecting the Configuration as a Read Only user.
Issue in the 5.1 release only, fixed failure to launch the server runtime process from the Configuration client if the Runtime is configured for interactive use and UAC is enabled.
Updated the Alias browse GUI to eliminate the dependence on the parent dialog's check box with corresponding help update to better describe the “Show systems tag group:” checkbox.
Added enable/disable checkbox for A&E project settings.
Runtime Interface
New OPC UA server interface V1.01 supporting optimized binary TCP.
Improved DDE server capability when running as a service, to prevent MS Excel DDE client stability issues. (Requires interact with desktop to be enabled.)
Fixed failure to apply Alias scan rate override to items added via the FastDDE/SuiteLink native interface.
Added the ability for a user to specify the 'default' project to use the next time the runtime is started. The Runtime will look for user-supplied project.xml or project.opf file in the same directory as the default.opf at server startup and reinitialize.
Fixed problem were no client update was being generated from the OPC layer upon item state transition from inactive to active.
Event Log Components / Utilities
OPC UA Configuration Manager
New utility which always installs due to install of OPC UA server interface.
OPC A&E Server
Fixed a COM error when the server forced client deletion. The error resulted in stability issues with the runtime.
License Utility
Several minor cosmetic updates to the UI.
Added the following warning text to the software activations page: “Caution: Multiple licenses of the same product cannot be activated on one machine. Attempting to do so will result in the loss of the license.”
OPC Quick Client
Enhanced the Quick Client to better support international value formats where a comma is used instead of a decimal point for floating point numbers.
Install
Add the ability for the user to override the default root for application data. This enhancement is for users of systems (i.e. embedded OS) where a “SharedApplicationDataDirectory” may not have write privileges or may not exist. When performing un-installs, the product.ini file will not be deleted.
Fixed issue found internally where a Windows SxS error is recorded in the application event log during product installation.
Enhanced digital signature verification logic to no longer depend on CAPICOM (which is deprecated in Windows 7). Removed CAPICOM from install.
Resolved issue with 5.1 install where an upgrade from 5.0 to 5.1 caused the process mode to change from Interactive to Service.
Make installing the A&E Custom Alarms Plug-in optional, but give all users the OPC A&E server interface (event log messages to A&E clients) by default.
Updated hardware key drivers (HASP SRM command line installation) to support Windows 7. Tested with 32/64 bit operating systems.
Replaced old SimDemo.opf sample project with a more modern sample.
Install on Windows 2000 will prompt user to reboot and restart install after VS2005 installed.
Plug-ins
A&E Custom Alarms
DataLogger Plug-In
Fixed issue where deadlock could occur after starting/stopping a log group.
Fixed an issue where table creation with Oracle databases was not working.
Drivers
All Drivers
Improved device read queue logic to prevent potential deadlock scenario. This issue was found during internally testing.
Allen-Bradley ControlLogix Ethernet
Modified the driver to support locale-specific multi-byte strings.
Resolved an issue with Auto Tag Generation that occurred if a project correlation error was detected.
Increased the maximum number of Programs supported from 512 to 1024.
Fixed application exception that can occur when multiple Logix Array elements are added and removed at random, followed up by a project upload (due to inactivity, change in project, etc).
BACnet
Modified driver to not repeatedly request the "Segmentation Supported" property from a device if the device returns an error to that request.
Fixed ATDBG when the device responds with an error to the Read Property: ALL command.
Corrected a problem with parsing a NotificationClass Object. This was causing ATDBG to fail with an internal test device, and generating default tags.
Resolved issue with permanent COV subscriptions.
Enhanced COV Subscription Request handling to improve performance
Cutler-Hammer ELC Ethernet
Fixed issue with write-only tags introduced in 5.0. The value of the tag was not updating when a value was written to it. The correct value was written to the device, just not displayed in the data client.
Cutler-Hammer ELC Serial
Fixed issue with write-only tags introduced in 5.0. The value of the tag was not updating when a value was written to it. The correct value was written to the device, just not displayed in the data client.
Dataforth IsoLynx
Fixed issue introduced in 5x where reconnect to device after a cable pull can take minutes instead of seconds as in V4.x version of driver.
GE Ethernet
Fixed issue where PACSystem UDT booleans were not being read or written properly
GE Focas1 Ethernet
Fixed address parser problem introduced with addition of CNC status info tags.
Honeywell HC900 Ethernet
Replaced broken "Regenerate imported tags" checkbox with a regenerate button. The regenerate button gives the same intended functionality as the "Regenerate imported tags" checkbox.
Fixed issue where the driver did not support proper importation of certain digital addresses such as digital floats.
Idec Serial
Expand the address ranges as for MicroSmart and Open models.
Added support for Floats to Data Registers for MicroSmart, Micro3, and Open models.
Mettler Toledo Serial
Added write-only Booleans CTPZ commands (Clear, Tare, Print, Zero).
Enabled Unsolicited Ethernet Encapsulation.
Modbus Ethernet
Fixed issue with write-only tags introduced in 5.0. The value of the tag was not updating when a value was written to it. The correct value was written to the device, just not displayed in the data client.
Allow global settings that control unsolicited port and protocol to change on the fly.
Modbus Serial
Fixed issue with write-only tags introduced in 5.0. The value of the tag was not updating when a value was written to it. The correct value was written to the device, just not displayed in the data client.
Omron FINS Ethernet
Fixed thread synchronization issue which could result in intermittent stale communications for certain channels in multi-channel projects
OPC UA Client Driver
Opto 22 Ethernet
Fixed issue with processing "Object not found" Errors when using "CONT over Ethernet TCP/IP" Communications Protocol.
