Refreshing the real-time screens’ frequency settings are easier to tune

Dynamic Dashboard:

Several new features were implemented into Dynamic Dashboard, supporting system

integrators to work much smoother and faster

tasks significantly

much faster

Loading device lists for large scale systems became quicker

A confirming green colour feedback will appear, when a dashboard was successfully saved.

Realtime Device Manager:

Option to clone Template Devices, allowing creating similar drivers very quickly.

New „PF Quad” data types added to support some of the new Schneider Electric PM

Janitza Power meters)

Multiple-write-mode is supported for Modbus Holding registers

Improved communication reliability and performance for the real-time devices

OPC Configurator:

The ability to reach the OPC service through it’s CLSID when AVReporter and the OPC

Server are located on different PC and different operating system

AVReporter Database:

20-50% faster report queries for large systems, as the general database performance has

been improved

The scheduler crashed while sending out a report in e-mail for various operating systems.

For specific Windows localizations, the Desktop Manager reports were not showing up in

the recently edited report list, when the operating system localizations got changed.

AVReporter Advisor:

When launching the Component Store from AVReporter Advisor and downloading a driver,

an error message appeared immediately, as it was trying to install the driver instead of

downloading only.

Realtime Device Manager:

The software froze, when a „%” character was typed into the filter-box of the editing

screens.

When downloading specific drivers from the Component Store, sometimes not all quantities

got installed.

The „Bit” field in the Template Devices was not accessible when pasting the DataType into

„Digital Function” from the clipboard.

In Screen View editor when clicking the „Refresh” button without having a dashboard open,

the software threw an exception.

When launching a Multi-Y chart from Desktop Manager, Basic Reporter asked for

confirmation to exit

The custom interval did not load properly when opening the report on saving a report with

a custom interval while the “pre-definied interval” box contained different selection from

“Current day”.

Business Intelligence module:

In case of Windows 8 operating system the Active Report function did not work.

None consecutive handling of the „null” value in the Business Intelligence Module.

OPC Configurator:

There was an exception when a non-administrator user tried to delete a configuration

The default logging names of the OPC tags were not generated properly

AVReporter OPC and Realtime services sometimes failed to load after reboot, if SQL services

opened with large delay.

AVRWebPublisher:

The IsFirst and PreviousValue variable properties were not used appropriately on web and

desktop Business Intelligence calculations when “Active Report” was toggled.

Dynamic Dashboard:

When webserver was not reachable for the AVReporter clients, the dashboard failed to

update the real-time values. This occurs when the connection re-established after more

than 30 seconds.
