Yesterday we released a new graphic element that provides for viewing, editing and printing of Microsoft Excel XLS files during runtime operation. One nice feature is Excel is not required to be installed on the computer running the HMI. XLS is the file extension for Microsoft Excel 97-2003. Newer versions of Excel can save to the XLS format.
This release also included several more features/changes.
· A runtime window to allow masked string entry, like entering a password, the actual characters are not displayed, under project control.
· A two button window for Boolean runtime operations. (three and four button already exist)
· The ability to configure a user name and settings and then use a 'force log on' command, to always have a user logged in. The user must be configured for 'forced log on' for the command to succeed.
· A change of the ODBC logging thread for better performance.
· A reduced 'watchdog' timer logging selection for the MODBUS RS-485 port. This prevents slave devices that are off-line, on purpose, from filling the event log with timeouts.
· Additional event logging.
