Features
- Added ‘Single Network Mode’ option to allow display of 1 network at a time and have ability to page up or down to the top of the next network as it was done in our DOS software.
- Added functionality to highlight an edited instruction when doing Online Node Editing, so that it is visible that edit mode is present if the cursor had not been moved off the instruction yet.
- Added “Trace” and “Untrace” similar to our DOS software where Shift-F1 and Shift-F2 are used. Being that Shift-F1 is used for a different function in the Windows, Shift-F2 and Shift-F3 are used.
- Added ability to import the data templates from the DOS PLCWorkShop software.
- Added support for Online access with the Applicom International PCI Modbus+ Sa85 card.
- Added online network editor option to compliment the node editor. Allows 1 network to be edited online before validation.
- Added functionality when importing DOS Labels, to insert CR/LF after each 10 characters.
- Added ability to clear branches on box instructions one cell at a time.
- Added a message display warning the key will expire within 30 days.
- Added ability for text to wrap in the Title Page Print Editor.
Solutions
- Corrected problem where contents of the network number edit box in ‘Find’ should be selected when the dialog was initialized so the user can enter an alternate value without having to manually delete the default value.
- Corrected problem where ‘Find’ of address/tag worked the first time but subsequent ‘Finds’ did not until closing the Find dialog and opening it again.
- Corrected problem where the ‘Help’ tool bar icon did not have a tool tip.
- Corrected problem where Paste with Rewire with Offset dialog did not format addresses consistent with the Program Setup’s 5 or 6 digit setting. “Element out of Range’ errors would erroneously be displayed.
- Corrected problem where importing a 16-bit *.FTK file did not load the Title Page Print Editor.
- Corrected problem where the ‘New Network’ tool bar icon tool tip said “New Rung”.
- Corrected problem when validating a blank network the size came out as 6 bytes. It should only be 3.
- Corrected problem where a short was being allowed to be placed in 11th column of ladder.
- Corrected problem where the Status Display in logic was displaying an ‘OFF’ in the Network Equation instruction, which should not be there.
- Corrected problem in Online Network Edit mode, and also in Single Network display mode, when shading 3 block instructions and copying, then pasting in the 4th column from the left, underneath the existing block instructions gave a GPF.
- Corrected problem where entering any modules in racks 2 and greater through TCOP caused “Module not found in configuration” error.
- Corrected problem where the description and tag printed in the logic inline cross-reference are not properly aligned.
- Corrected problem where pasting networks when the ladder cursor is positioned at the “Segment End” box and the logic window is in continuous mode, the networks are pasted in the last configured segment, not the last segment which actually contains logic.
- Corrected problem where editing a network equation in Online Node Editor did not update nodes used.
- Corrected problem where highlighting networks with the mouse, from the last network up locks up the software.
- Corrected problem where loading or saving the .EXE loadables LSUP and G398 to the 258 PLC caused a “Communications(8) – Invalid Parameter” error.
- Corrected problem where in continuous network number mode if you paste onto the “End of Segment” the network would get placed at network 1 of that segment.
- Corrected problem where when in continuous network mode and trying to paste a network in segment 3 when no networks exist in the first segment, the program locked up.
- Corrected problem where if you have one network in a segment and you cut or delete that network and try to validate you would get “Error Displaying Logic”.
- Corrected problem where when printing multiple segments in continuous mode, the inline cross reference in the ladder area, displayed as offset for by segment mode.
- Corrected problem where 5-Digit addressing did not save for a quantum PLC.
- Corrected problem where importing text files which were created/edited in Excel could not be imported into WorkShop.
- Corrected problem where during Import/Export of text file, if the drive/path/file name found via “Browse” was too long to fit in the File Name edit box, it’s name is “shrunk” using an ellipsis to indicate missing portions. These shrunk file names caused errors when attempting to import or export documentation.
- Corrected problem where pasting 3 move blocks in network 1 online with status and powerflow on caused a GPF.
- Corrected problem where “A coil can not be pasted in a row with an existing coil” error displayed when a coil was entered correctly.
- Corrected problem where pasting in continuous mode after a “Cut” caused error “Invalid Range of Rungs was set for Cut/Copy”.
- Corrected problem where the meter for validating in Continuous network number mode still referred to networks validating in By Segment mode.
- Corrected problem where pasting 5 networks in a new program segment 1, and then cutting the networks 2-5 caused display logic error.
- Corrected GPF when unplugging serial cable during cross reference build.
- Corrected problem where we allowed deleting of a coil while being logged out of the PLC, which can cause “Invalid Node communications”.
- Adjusted wording in error message during Import of Text Doc files to indicate that they need to be in 6 digit form on the import, and to state the line the error occurred in.
- Corrected problem where doing a Find/New, in the Doc Editor after just adding doc for an address, caused the last one to not save.
- Corrected problem where doing a Merge into a matching config, and clicking on the TCOP option, caused an error “Number of modules in source does not match number of modules in target”.
- Corrected problem where Paste with Rewire with offset and include description caused a GPF after pressing OK on the error “exceeding configuration”.
- Corrected problem when online with status on, and highlighting a SUB box instruction and moving the mouse up and down caused the middle node status to change from ‘0’ to ‘OFF’.
- Corrected problem when online with logic status and powerflow on, in continuous network number mode, when Status Optimize is on, only the first cell of powerflow was shown.
- Corrected problem where opening an FTK file caused a debug error.
- Corrected problem where addresses of both 5 digit and 6 digit formats could exist in the same shared doc file.
- Corrected problem where the ADU211/212 TCOP module was not loaded properly for the 32bit Compacts.
- Corrected problem where the module ADU211/212 was missing its zoom screen in the 32bit Compact TCOP.
- Corrected problem where double clicking on a horizontal short or dotted line, and then clicking anywhere else resulted in “An error occurred while validating input”.
- Corrected problem when entering a contact with the function keys, and typing the address, and pressing Enter, would bring up the mnemonics window.
- Corrected problem where laying multiple logic windows over each other did not properly refresh network numbers.
