PRÜFTECHNIK Condition Monitoring strongly recommends that you make backup copies of all important data on a regular basis. PRÜFTECHNIK Condition Monitoring assumes no responsibility for data lost or altered as a result of improper use, repairs, defects, battery replacement/failures or any other cause. PRÜFTECHNIK Condition Monitoring assumes no responsibility, directly or indirectly, for financial losses or claims from third parties resulting from the use of this product and any of its functions, such as loss or alteration of stored data, etc. ======================================================================== --- Java installation notes --- ======================================================================== Java's Update Scheduler will be deactivated upon installation. We install Java as a "private Runtime" for the PRÜFTECHNIK software - this means it is not installed as a "public Runtime" (a public Java Runtime would be automatically and generally available to other software on the system, whereas the usage of a private Runtime by other software requires some extra effort on behalf of that other software). If an older version of a private Runtime, that was installed by and for PRÜFTECHNIK software, exists - it is replaced. Please contact our support team, if you want to use another installation of Java for running OMNITREND Web. ======================================================================== --- Known bugs --- ======================================================================== - report module: 3D-data diagrams viewed as a spectrogram, cannot be exported or saved as PDF (rest of such a report is cut off), but can just be printed - machinery tree may not load in some circumstances, where database text fields unintentionally contain invalid characters: a small patch with a workaround exists for this and is ready to be delivered if necessary (note, that this does affect the multiuser version only) ======================================================================== --- New in version 2.0.8 --- ======================================================================== emailcenter + fix: unlimited licenses + change: Nordex subject interpretation + fix: incorrect distribution of data attachments to file system reports + change: take last upload infos from spectrum if trending tasks contains no last upload infos ======================================================================== --- New in version 2.0.7 --- ======================================================================== reports + new: spectrum alarm report + change: compliance report: display days of columns schedule and route due + fix: calculating percent last value + change: Timefilter: period or current is always selected + fix: save fixed report over report properties failed + fix: compliance report: modified column width to avoid "..." aborted column header names + fix: report preview with graph element failed standard reports + fix: always show wizard in the foreground + change: wizard now can be minimized + new: added progress information during report loading + new: report loading can be terminated + fix: "Next" is only allowed, if user input is valid eps-scheduler + fix: timestamp for last import was wrong + fix: logging - construction of debug message ======================================================================== --- New in version 2.0.6 --- ======================================================================== general + fix: no more data limit (-6999 and 6999) for speed and user defined measurement values + new: russian language reports + fix: diagramviewer: all time signals of the report produced the same audio signal + change: standard reports: improved default user defined template ======================================================================== --- New in version 2.0.5 --- ======================================================================== reports + fix: improved scaling steps digit display of diagrams + fix: standard reports: added missing description of status "N" + fix: standard report templates: fixed filter and datatype settings and language problems + fix: compliant overdue report: wrong overdue time license + change: return fax will be opened with pdf viewer instead of report viewer public webservices + change: alarmcheck: include alarm values in result (so far only alarm status was returned) ======================================================================== --- New in version 2.0.4 --- ======================================================================== general + fix: operating states were previously miscalculated, if disabled for machine train + fix: now put temporary files into userhome instead of current working directory reports + fix: report creation failed in some very special cases, due to a bug in frequency marker handling online + fix: VibNode compatibility check im- and export + fix: master data and master data templates could not be processed together at the same time mailcenter + fix: device data import - .sdf and .**y files erroneously were always imported directly, regardless of the subject line parameter ======================================================================== --- New in version 2.0.3 --- ======================================================================== general + new: support for measurement tasks with order based spectrum setup reports + fix: no more privilege needed to edit text element in reports + fix: template editor: element resizers should never disappear;
