EasyBuilder 8000 Version 4.65.05 Build 2013/05/07 New Features 1. Virtual com port and USB download drivers support Windows 7 64bit and Windows 8 32/64bit OS. Corrections The following errors were corrected in this release: 1. Fixed the problem when copy and paste multi-lined text to a label tag in Label Library, the multi-lined text will be incorrectly copied to other tags. 2. Fixed the problem where screen hardcopy cannot capture XY Plot object. 3. Fixed the problem where by scrolling the records of Alarm Display object, the records are displayed incorrectly if it is in [Time ascending] mode. 4. Fixed the problem where clicking [Tag Library] button in object property dialogs may delete certain address tags.
5. Fixed the problem where the addresses used by XY Plot, Trend Display, and Data Block Display objects cannot be correctly displayed in Object List. 6. Fixed the problem where modifying PLC name in device list, the PLC name used by XY Plot, Trend Display, and Data Block Display objects are not modified in accordance. 7. Fixed the problem where using Backup object frequently can cause HMI to fail in operation.
8. Fixed the problem when placing an array variable on the right hand side of an arithmetic operator can cause error. As shown in the following figure, data[i] is an array variable and placed on the right hand side of the addition operator, which might return an incorrect result. 9. Fixed the problem where RTC time may not be updated correctly. If the system still fails to update RTC time, the system register [LB-11958: time setting error] will be set ON. 10. Fixed the problem where off-line and on-line simulation mode may not end correctly. 11. Fixed the problem on Set Word object using Jog++ /Jog-- modes with Interlock function enabled in Security tab. First, the object is pressed continuously until it is locked. Then, leave it unpressed. After it is unlocked, the value automatically increases or decreases until it is clicked. 12. Changed the way of setting Sequence of Event (SOE). The major difference is the way to calculate event message index value, as compared in the following table.
Versions before and include EB8000V4.65.04 [Type] 16 + [Bit offset of the event index] For example, if the value of [Type] is 1, and the value of [Event index] is 5 (Binary 101), the event messages with index number 17 and 19 will be triggered. 1 16 + Bit 1 => Event Index 17 1 16 + Bit 3 => Event Index 19 Versions after and include EB8000V4.65.05 [Type] 1000 + [Bit offset of the event indicator] For example, if the value of [Type] is 1, and the value of [Event indicator] is 5 (Binary 101), the event messages with index number 1001 and 1003 will be triggered. 1 1000 + Bit 1 => Event Index 1001 1 1000 + Bit 3 => Event Index 1003 For more information, please see EasyBuilder 8000 User Manual, Chapter 36 Sequence of Events. 13. Fixed the problem where [LB-12040: remote printer/backup server disconnection alarm (when ON)] does not display ON state when disconnected with remote printer server.
Drivers 1. Fixed the problem where the communication between S7/300 MPI and HMI is not stable and cannot re-connect when being disconnected. 2. Fixed the problem where D_Bit address type of GE Fanuc 0i MD driver did not work correctly. 3. Fixed the problem where Output and Output_Bit address types of YASKAWA MP2300Siec (Ethernet) driver did not work correctly in Macro. 4. Fixed the problem where the communication with SIEMENS S7/200 PPI is not stable. 5. YASKAWA MP Series Memobus (Ethernet) driver is added. For more information, see Connect Yaskawa device with multiple HMIs 6. The 32-bit address types of Siemens PLC models are not limited to the multiples of 4. The affected PLCs and address types are listed in the following table. PLC model SIEMENS S7/200 SIEMENS S7/200 PPI SIEMENS S7/200 (Ethernet) SIEMENS Smart PPI SIEMENS Smart (Ethernet) SIEMENS S7/300 SIEMENS S7/300 MPI SIEMENS S7/300 (Ethernet) SIEMENS S7/400 (Ethernet) Address type VD VD_Odd MD SD SMD MD DBDn The listed address types are limited to 32-Bit format. 7. KOYO Do-more and KOYO Do-more (Ethernet) drivers are added.
8. ODVA EtherNet/IP Explicit Messaging driver is added. 9. [Send RESET when power on] selection is added in Mitsubishi FX0s/FX0n/FX1s/FX1n/FX2 PLC COM Port Settings dialog box. PLC can be reset when HMI is powered ON. 10. TOSHIBA VF-S11 driver is renamed to TOSHIBA INVERTER VF.
