We are happy to announce 1.4.0 firmware version release for ELSETA’s WCC Lite. v1.4.0 includes major improvements and introduces new functionalities. What did we focus on for this release?
New functionalities:
- PLC logic. This logic is compatible with IEC 61499 and will be able to perform tasks distributed across several devices and aggregate their results.
- Official WCC Excel utility. The new utility will enable you to load configurations remotely, and overall speed up the configurations process.
- MQTT client. The functionality is currently available for unencrypted data, and recommended for use in local networks. There is also LWT option.
- GSM status window. This will allow to monitor GSM parameter in real time, restart the modem or switch SIM card.
- GSM parameters as well as GSM pinger parameters have migrated to Network graph. They were given wider selection options.
- It is now possible to track signal quality history. Signal quality will also be shown for certain parameters for certain signals.
Bug fixes and major improvements:
- Updates to Imported signals column filtering.
- Imported signals now refresh signals by signal_alias and device_alias pair – instead of device_name and signal_name as before.
- Host parameter is no longer needed for Modbus Slave Serial;
- Previously, if operator selection was used in Excel - flags would be added incorrectly. This has been updated.
- For certain mathematical operations some quotation symbols were incorrectly interpreted. They are automatically corrected at reading time to the format understandable for the software.
- All required updates to out-of-the-box support the upcoming 1.4 firmware version release.
