Version 9.1 - 06 August 2021

What’s new

  • [I O] New datasource to support CC-Link with Mitsubishi PLC. Please see documentation.

  • [O] To prevent an error when uploading a large project, we set the default ‘maxRequestLength’ of the web.config to the maximum.

      <httpRuntime executionTimeout="240" maxRequestLength="1048576" />
    
  • [O] Web client: the combo box listing all cameras has been reduced in size. The list was too big when connecting to a project with lot of cameras and user was not able to access all cameras. [ref 25975]

  • [O] Change default settings for new project. ‘Use built-in users’ is now unticked by default. [ref 25975]

  • [O] Change default settings for Sym3 Operator Client. Max alarms and max events have been changed from 10,000 to 1,000. [ref 26298]

  • [D I] Adding an option in the message viewer to clear all messages before starting simulation [ref 25624]

  • [D I O] Merge equipment (still in Beta) has now 2 Photo Eyes [ref 25404]

  • [D I O] New Equipment: we are introducing a new equipment used for our BTS systems: Transfer (90 degrees transfer). This is in ‘Beta’ version. Do not use in production. At this stage, Diverge, Merge and Transfer equipment are also limited to be controlled by ‘External Control’, meaning there are no simulation mode (Window reservation etc…). Any feedback is welcome. [ref 25572, 25680]

Two new components: Transfer

Bugs fixed

  • [D I O] Improve loading time of a project. We improved loading time by 30% for Editor, Client and Server. [ref 26027 and 26311]

  • [D I O] Fixed a crash in Sym3 when selecting and deleting lot of equipment. [JIRA Sym3-392] [ref 26286]
  • [D I O] Issue when renaming a MyEquipment with children. [JIRA Sym3-396] [ref 26287]

  • [I O] OPC-UA: an issue has been fixed: when sym3 (OPC-UA client) started before the OPC-UA server, the connection was not made. This was a regression introduced in v8.16. [SUPPORT 2099] [ref 25571].
  • [D I O] Sym3 was failing at saving a project file with the char ‘&’ in the name. [SUPPORT 2102] [ref 25623].
