EBPro Release Notes

1 December 2021 V6.06.02.233

New Features

EasyBuilder Pro 1. [Find/Replace] Added the possibility to find in currently selected objects.

2. [System Registers] Added EasyAccess 2.0 related system registers for displaying the number of

connected users and their usernames.

cMT/cMT X Models 1. [Condition] Condition object is now available. It provides a GUI way to build condition, which

may be used in place of macro commands.

2. [Trend Display]

a. Added [Connect data gaps] option. This option determines whether the trend curves

stay

connected when there are missing data. Below are two trend curves drawn from the

same data source; one is not connected and the other is connected.

b. Added “Zoom button visibility” setting, providing an option to show/hide the Zoom

Button.

c. Scrolling along only the X-axis or Y-axis is now possible.

d. Displaying the range where there are originally more than 10000 records is now

possible. Following this release, when the number of records exceeds 10000 within the

specified time range, data from the entire range will still be displayed. However,

selected data points may be omitted to maintain system performance. (Before, the

display limit was strictly the last 10000 records within specified time range.)

3. [Energy Demand] Added a control address for clearing and resetting all relevant data.

4. [Action Trigger] Added [User secure access] mode. In this mode, actions are triggered when

access to a security class is obtained or lost.

5. [Recipe View]

Added [Allow in-cell editing] option for editing recipe records directly in a Recipe View table.

Below is an example:

6. [Operation Log]

A label from the label library can now be used as comment.

7. [Screen Hardcopy]

Added [Crop window] option for taking a cropped screenshot.

8. [Backup][Import/Export]

EBPro Release Notes

10. [Data Sampling] [Event Log]

Added support for using Backup object to generate a backup file with checksum. EasyConverter

can then be used to examine data integrity.
