Resolved Issues

Description

DeviceHub:

  • Fixed issue where the Euromap63 (Gen1) driver sometimes failed to read the latest job file, causing it to utilize old historical data.
  • Fixed issue where Mitsubishi Gen2 drivers incorrectly listed hexadecimal registers as decimal.
  • Fixed issue where DNP3 Ethernet with FB Extensions driver failed to parse and publish data point values for the "Read Meter Configuration File" function in Litmus Edge.
  • Fixed issue where the ROC800 Ethernet Event register excluded the W&M event's old value in the payload.

Digital Twins:

  • Fixed issue where saving a model in Digital Twin after adding an attribute and uploading an image incorrectly incremented the version number by 2 instead of 1.
  • Fixed issue where imported templates retained old static attribute values in instances until service was restarted.
  • Fixed issue where users could add empty dynamic attributes to models.
  • Fixed issue where the copy button for the data topic in Digital Twin instances became hidden when instance names exceeded 230 characters.
  • Fixed issue where Upgrade, Reload, and Save Model buttons overlapped when the model name exceeded 250 characters.
  • Fixed issue where the Save Model button remained grayed out after adding a newly created Static attribute to a schema.
  • Fixed issue where adding a UNS static attribute to a Schema rendered it undeletable during model saving.
  • Fixed issue where the Add button for dynamic attributes remained grayed out after clicking outside the input fields.
  • Fixed issue where duplicate digital twin instances were created with the same name when uploading templates.

Analytics:

  • Fixed issue where the Define connection feature did not allow users to assign custom names when creating Events/Values Connections.

Integrations:

  • Fixed issue where help icons on the Add Cloud Sync Job dialog box displayed information on hover instead of click.
  • Fixed issue where importing topics in one version of MongoDB connector caused the other connector to restart.

OPC UA:

  • Fixed issue where applying a template after enabling the OPC UA server resulted in a not_found: bucket user not found error.

Events:

  • Fixed issue where DeviceHub events incorrectly displayed a deleted tag count of zero after removing all tags from a template.

System:

  • Fixed issue where hovering over help icons in the System > Firewall appeared similar to warning icon hovers.
  • Fixed issue where the auto-activation process in Litmus Edge Docker displayed a failed to verify certificate error if the activation request remained pending in Litmus Edge Manager.
