Patches for WinCC OA are more than just bug fixes. 

Continuous feature integration makes it possible to implement enhancements in several different categories into our product. To keep your software up to date, make sure to download and install the newest update. 

Highlights

UI

  • The new table property tabKeyCellFocus() allows the use of the tab key within the table widget to quickly and seamlessly navigate through table cells.
  • A new function minMaxNumeric(bool) can reset the value of text input fields to a valid value if an invalid value has been entered, which helps to minimize input errors.
  • The new property allowEmptyNumeric() now allows for input fields to remain really empty as well as having a value of 0. These two states can be distinguished by the CTRL code.

WebView EWO

The WebView EWO received a new function setFeaturePermission(). This allows users to grant access to external requests, such as video/microphone input.

Details concerning the function can be found here.

User Management

The outdated Microsoft NTLM service for Active Directory authentication has been replaced by LDAP/Kerberos functions. The config entry useWindowsNTLM allows users to enable the previous functionality, should it be needed for compatibility reasons.

ULC UX

A new config autoReconnectOnShutdown lets the ULC UX automatically reconnect after a normal shutdown.

NGA

  • The NGA query speed when reading from multiple archive groups simultaneously has been improved.
  • The trend widget can now also use the direct read feature for NGA-based archiving.
