ADC_HMI_PE (AutomationDirect) asked a question.
We are happy to announce the next release of the C-more EA9 programming software. Starting with this version, the C-more software is now free. It is still the same full version as before, just no key code to enter and no charge.
Due to security updates, the latest version of the Remote HMI App for iOS and Android is required to connect to C-more HMI panels with version 6.60 firmware.
Remote HMI App versions at the time of release.
iOS – version 1.3
Android – version 1.1.3
Using Remote Access from a PC: The Remote Access applet that is downloaded when connecting remotely through a web browser (file name: RemoteHMI_IP=[IP Address_Port].exe) needs to be updated also. To do so, connect to the panel through a web browser, select Remote Access, then the appropriate link. The new applet will be downloaded to you PC.
New Features
1) Security Updates
2) Added Username and Password to Built-in Ethernet Port and ECOM Ethernet Port communications from the EA9 configuration software. See Help Topic CM157 –
Panel Network – Ethernet Port Setup.
3) Added option to not allow Panel IP Address to be changed from the EA9 configuration software. See Help Topic CM157 – Panel Network – Ethernet Port Setup.
Bug Fixes
1) Available Memory is not calculated correctly at time of project download
2) File size gets larger with each open and save of the project
3) Restoring Project and Firmware to Panel from External Memory Device produces “Not enough Memory” error though there is enough memory
4) Recipe values not writing when tags are associated with multiple Allen Bradley Control/CompactLogix devices
5) Print - When only Screens are selected, printed page is blank
6) Ethernet Connection Setup: Remote Link List sort not sorting all columns
7) Panel stuck in Initializing after Project Transfer
8) RHMI locks up when 'exiting' the system screen through the HMI button on the RHMI USB Remote function
C-more EA9-PGMSW version 6.60 Release - Now Free!
Although I feel a little cheated, my customers are very happy, as am I that they can now support their projects without more investment and worry over losing their licence when they lose an employee or a computer.
Keep up the great work and support!
