Chapter 4 - Release candidates and beta releases
80 Version 1.6.2a.0 May 17, 2011
When a unit is not yet connected to the GUI, its controls now have a transparent yellow
overlay.
Added full scale gain selection control for line input/output cards in CABs
Added capability to invoke a web page from the menus (via the display_url function in
default_menu.xml).
Added /deploy="file" command line argument
The System Mute Device now mutes attached CABs.
Added graphical lock and unlock menu items.
Added a CobraNet error counter to the CM-1 device.
CABs now mute when the NioNode that is controlling them is shutdown.
When resizing objects. holding the shift key down now locks width/height proportions.
Reduced GUI memory usage. For instance, a large Project that used to take 220MB of PC
memory now uses 150MB.
NioNodes now run a web server (the NioNode Web Interface), through which you can
accomplish various status monitoring and unit configuration tasks.. Type something like
http://198.90.143.30/ (substitute your NioNodes IP address) into your web-browser. An
extra-special dangerous page lets you reboot or power down and restart, halt and erase the
current role. This page, which has no security, currently, can be found at this address
(substitute the proper IP): http://198.90.143.30/god.html
NioNode front panel screen capture is available through the NioNode Web Interface.
RATC, versions 1 and 2, are supported via TCP/IP and on the NioNode rear serial port see
User Guide for more information.
PASHA and XControl are supported on the NioNode rear serial port see the User Guide
for more information.
Bug Fixes
Fixed the polygon tool to reach polygons that are behind locked objects.
Fixed a bug where clearing the remote log of a NioNode that you were not polling caused
an unhandled exception. Also disabled the Sync Log option if not polling, as it is not
required in this case.
Removed some error logging that was printing out if you had CABs but didn't have a cable
plugged into the CM-1.
Release Beta 4
Features
Duplicate Command: Added Edit | Duplicate command (hot key Ctrl+D).
Full Bundle Range: Fully support CobraNet bundle range (excluding the private bundle
range above 65279).
Fader knobs now track under mouse.
Phase 0 Security: Features have been implemented that can give hardware protection and
allow designer-designated control panels to be exported. See User Guide Security Phase 0
for details.
Phase 0 Fault Policy: Features have been added. This allows you to specify dependencies
between Target Nodes. This means that a node will mute if any of the nodes it is dependent
upon suffer a fault. By default, the NioNodes in an XDAB cluster are dependent on one
another. See User Guide System Fault Policy for details.
