Release date 2010-06-16 Ignition 7.1.2 SQL Bridge Module 5.1.2 Vision Module 4.1.2 Reporting Module 1.2.2 OPC-UA Module 1.1.2 OPC-UA A-B Drivers 1.1.2 OPC-UA Modbus Driver 1.1.2 OPC-COM Module 1.1.2 build 5273 Release Notes: 1) Auto-upgrade of Vision clients will not work when upgrading to this version. The clients will need to be restarted in order to update themselves. This is due to changes in the bootstrap loader. 2) This version includes a new version of the internal settings database that resolves a corruption issue. If you had installed a fresh version of 7.1.0 or 7.1.1, you'll likely need to re-create your builtin image library as discussed in this forum thread (http://www.inductiveautomation.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=12864#p12864) General Added - Calls to system.alert.queryAlertHistory can now specify a sort order for the resulting alert log events. Improved - New "dayofweek" and "dayofyear" units available in the date related expression functions Improved - Major overhaul to client bootstrap system to fix memory leaks during retarget Fixed - Scripting problem that caused numeric static fields of script modules to be incompatible with Python numeric operators Fixed - Bug that caused the active bitmask to always be set on the results of system.alert.getAlertStatus() Fixed - SQLTags CSV export doesn't include tag value for static tags. Gateway Improved - Changed the system.alert.queryAlertStatus() function to use whole-line matching on its filters. To match part of a line, use the wildcard (*) Improved - Changed bundled version of Java to 6u20 Improved - Added option to disable DirectDraw which will hopefully help some client systems that are having trouble painting. Modified - SQLTags now allow extended characters in their names. Fixed - Fixed deadlock in external SQLTags driver system. Fixed - Seed values for SQLTags Historian queries not loading correctly in certain cases. Fixed - SQLTags not responding correctly when the executing scan class is deleted. Fixed - Expressions with tag references aren't receiving correct quality when reference is broken. Fixed - New version of internal database to fix corruption issue affecting images and project resources Designer Fixed - Bug that caused exporting images from the Designer's image management tool to fail Fixed - Error using OPC browse for expression tag write-back feature. Fixed - Drag-drop of historical tags onto charts and tables from non-default providers not including correct provider name. OPC-UA Module Added - Added Dairy Demo Simulator Added - Exposed statistics about each UA service in Server->VendorServerInfo->ServiceStats Improved - Added Communication Retry Count to Modbus driver so that read and write request will retry if a timeout occurs. Improved - Moved some of the Modbus device settings to the advanced category. Improved - Improved traces in Modbus driver requests. Improved - Added request retry before setting data values to Stale Improved - Improved Modbus driver timeout logic to better handle a timed out device when connected through a gateway with multiple devices. Fixed - Fixed exception that occurred when a new setting was added to OPC Device configuration. Fixed - Fixed issue where TCP connections were not being ended with the remote server when shutting down or modifying OPC Device settings. Fixed - Fixed ControlLogix forward open request issue. Fixed - Fixed timeout error when browsing Modbus device with no address mapping. SQL Bridge Module Modified - Alert paths for items in groups no longer start with forward slash(/) Fixed - Block group live value display sometimes not showing values. Fixed - Async trigger settings not displaying correctly when group selection changes. Fixed - Unable to modify existing paths in block items. Fixed - Group attempting to read index column unnecessarily when no items in group require it. Fixed - Incorrect UI display for Hourmeter/Eventmeter values on group items - display reverts to "direct value" when setting is event meter. Fixed - External SQLTags driver - corrected several issues with monitoring of static db tag values and scaling. Vision Module Improved - Easy chart upgrades improve realtime polling algorithm by preventing query stacking and added pause button, ability to zoom/pan in realtime mode. Improved - Event scripts can now be terminated early via the sys.exit() call with no errors. Improved - Fixed problem where a SQLTag would be reported as not found when opening the property binding window Fixed - Updated window serialization so that illegal unicode characters are stripped from strings before serialization. Fixed - Bug that caused serialization problems on bindings to date-typed DB-tags due to inability to serialize java.sql.Timestamp Fixed - Bug that caused SQLTags read-access denied security overlays to not appear Fixed - Bug that could cause expression tags to share underlying objects, causing unintended bulk modification of multiple tags' expressions. Fixed - Bug that could cause the numeric text field to inadvertently write down a value when the window opened when the numeric format string changed Fixed - NullPointerException during Pie Chart painting due to a null wedge label value Fixed - Syntax error in the generated event handling code for the tag-set action when using security OPC-COM Module Added - Remove server connections no longer require CLSID. Modified - Improved async write support. Modified - No longer passes values of unknown data types up to SQLTags. ActiveX Module Fixed - Fixed a bug with the print handler for Excel and Word. Now you can use the Excel and Word components.
