Software Version 5.1.0 - November 2014
This version of the software includes these key technical changes:
- Installation Options
- When the software is installed there are now some new installation options. The installer needs to place a tick in a check box to install each of the desired options:
- UPTC
- P74x Remote HMI
- P74x topology tool (this requires the installer to enter a serial number to enable this feature)
- The options which are successfully installed are then added to the Tools menu.
- Windows 7 64-bit qualification
- MiCOM S1 Studio (and its associated tools) are now Windows 7 64-bit qualified.
- MiCOM S1 Studio Explorer Enhancements
- Add a Repository:
It is now possible to add a new folder at the system level, voltage level, bay level or device level. Once the user has given a name to the folder, this is added to the explorer view with a dedicated icon. The user can then right-click on the new folder to activate a contextual menu which includes the option to add a file or a group of files. There is also a browse button to allow the user to move into the folder structure on the computer. The user can select a file or a group of files the move them into the new folder so that MiCOM S1 Studio stores them as a repository. For each file in the repository, there is a properties option, so the user can view all the properties of the files.
- Export System List:
At the system level it is possible to export two items:
- Current file (this being exported as a Studio archive)
- New export file (this being exported as a Device List). This contains a full list of all the devices available on the selected system. This information includes the Name, F-Number, and Type of each device.
- Default Files Behaviour:
If more than one setting file (PSL, MCL, etc) is stored in Studio Explorer, the user can mark the actual/current files as manage them as defaults or otherwise.
- XRIO Format (Omicrom)
- The handling of Block IDs within XRIO formatted files has now been improved. Previously, for different variants of the same model number, there were instances of Block/Sub-Block IDs being allocated to different numbers. The import filter now browses the file structure to locate a Block IDs and Parameter IDs, and ensures that the ID numbers are fully consistent with one another for different variants of the same model number. This means that the Standard XRIO Import Filter provided by OMICRON works much more consistently than previously.
