    • an error event is raised when the server catches an I/O error when saving camera images in the motion directory

  • new $SUNAZIMUTH$ and $SUNELEVATION$ built-in variables
  • new UISESSIONSET action, used in combination with USER events, allows session-based UI control in EVENTS
  • new PAGE project = page event, triggered on every page change or reload
  • new $HAMASTER$ built-in variable, is set to 1 when master mode or HA not configured, or 0 when slave mode
  • new HAACTIVE persistent event, is true when the server is active (see the high availability features)
  • new HAACTIVE = [true | false] action, set to false to force a master to become inactive (has no effect on the slave system)
  • with counter data loggers, you can use DATALOGGER name = "error" or any other not numeric value to reset the internal delta baseline
  • when the original value of the variable and the operator's value are both numbers ending with %, the arithmetic operation will retain the % in the result
