Used to create (userlist) clickable logs to easily control (camera) and (camerapanel) objects for playback *the Bentel KYO320 driver is now an I/O Server *new option userlogs. Used to create (userlist) clickable logs to easily control (camera) and (camerapanel) objects for playback *Tecnoalarm TECNO OUT: *added support for TP8-88 *the Tecnoalarm TECNO OUT driver is now an I/O Server *new option persistentconnection = <true|false>. If true (default is false) the I/O Server will not periodically disconnect and reconnect (periodic disconnection is used to avoid performance degradation on some firmware versions) *new option userlogs. Used to create (userlist) clickable logs to easily control (camera) and (camerapanel) objects for playback *RayControl I/O Server: *improved communication errors handling *new readinterval option (defaults to 25 msec.) *new data points: sN.setpoint.winter.max sN.setpoint.winter.min sN.setpoint.summer.max sN.setpoint.summer.min zN.lock *KNX I/O Server: *added "read" option for KNX data points to disable read requests from the driver *added "framedelay" option to set the delay between each frame sent to the KNX bus *BACnet I/O Server: *added support for the Relinquish_Default property *DOMINO I/O Server: *(temp) object: program mode improved *SIP I/O Server: *improved performance of the SSH connection to remote servers *support of password-based authentication *hsyco.ini: *LogMaxAge = N parameter *delete log files older than N days *names are now case-insensitive *new optional parameter DatabaseBackup (defaults to false). When true, an hot backup of the core database is automatically executed on a daily basis, saving data in the data_backup directory *new optional parameter StartupDelay=<sec> *new optional parameter ExceptionWatchdog=<N> (defaults to 5). After N uncaught exceptions the HSYCO server is killed and restarted. Set to 0 to disable the exception watchdog *new optional parameter securityLogDailyFiles=<true|false> (defaults to false). When true, the security log is written in daily files named MMDD-security.log *HTTPServerThreads default changed to 256 *the # character prefix can be used to disable an id in the following lists: dmxservers, ioservers, cameras, timers, dataloggers, locationbases, commports, slimplayers, irtrans *new I/O Servers optional parameter ioServersShutdownInactive.ID=<true|false> *comm ports: new optional timeout parameter for local serial ports: CommPort.ID.Params = speed,bits,stop,parity,flow[,timeout] (defaults to 2 sec.) *new eventsLoadTimeout optional parameter *support for application plugins: *multiple, dynamic loaded Java user classes can be created in the plugins directory *each plugin directory can have its own www subdirectory with multiple projects *new Wiring Editor tool *HSQLDB core SQL engine upgraded to 2.3.0 *improved UTF-8 support
*EVENTS: *JavaScript actions and callback functions *new INIT event, triggered at start-up and every time events.txt is modified *new DATESET action to set the server's hardware clock *new CAMERAVIEW event *new HTTP event *new ID.unitid.address = bits:<0|1>... syntax to use the Write Multiple Coils function *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 *Java API: *new callback and methods for session-based UI control: *public static String userSubmit(String session, String uid, String name, HashMap<String, String> fields) *public static String userCommand(String session, String uid, String name, String param) *public static void uiSet(String session, String id, String attr, String value) *public static void uiClear(String session) *public static String uiGet(String session, String id, String attr) *public static void uiClearEvent(String session) called once after the HSYCO deleted session data (due to inactivity or uiClear() called explicitly) when the client restarts updating its state *pageEvent(String address, String session, String userid, String project, String page) called on every page change or reload *new varEvent(String name, String value) callback method *new haActiveEvent(boolean active) callback method *new haActive(boolean active) action method, set to false to force a master to become inactive (has no effect on the slave system) *new callback method triggered by the MODBUS SERVER I/O Server: *byte[] ModbusEvent(InetAddress addr, int unitid, byte[] pdu) *new httpCallEvent(String host, boolean secure, String query) callback method *new String urlGet(String url, String user, String password) utility method *new urlPost(String url, String contenttype, String data, String user, String password) utility method *new method to set the server's hardware clock: *public static boolean dateSet(int year, int month, int day, int hour, int minute, int second) *new callback method triggered on cameras' viewing from the Web interface: *public static void CameraViewEvent(String camera, boolean active) *new writeMultipleCoils(String name, int unit, int address, int coils, byte[] bytes) method *dataLoggerUpdate(String name, Double value) with counter data loggers can receive a null value to reset the internal delta baseline *GUI Updates: *accessibility support, enabled with uiset project.accessibility = true *support for simplified Chinese *new "scale" web interface option allows client-side scaling of the GUI size *the client now works normally even when multiple windows pointing the same HSYCO server are open in the same browser *new (#uiset ...) project directive allows setting default values for UI objects *support for project-specific custom.css style files *new (sliderh) and (sliderv) objects *it is now possible to set an attribute's value for all objects of a specific type, using UISET "(type).attribute" = "value" *(scheduler) object: *can have an id and the "list" attribute is now dynamic *new dynamic "panel" attribute *when the width is more than 750px, the user interface changes to a master-detail view *improved support of "Add to Home Screen" in iOS 6 and 7 *(image), (imagelink) and (userimage) objects: new draw attribute for server-side dynamic graphics *(chart) object: add support for line and spline types *(datalogger) object: *add support for line and spline types *data browser mode, toolbar, new UI attributes *new (paradox) object for the Paradox I/O Server *new (bentel) object for the Bentel I/O Server *new (tecnoalarm) object for the Tecnoalarm I/O Server *support for client-side custom JavaScript code, with index.js files, including User object to explicitly call the server and trigger USER events
