10/1/2023

 

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (43) 10/1/2023

Bug fix:

1.    removed Send Direct button

2.    fixed Send Que button

10/1/2023

 

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (40) 10/1/2023

Bug fix:

1.    fixed the ENQ packets for TMP processing

 

 

5/1/2023

 

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (37) 5/1/2023

Bug fix:

1.    fixed the ACK for ENQ packets if the Tx mask is active.

        The enq was not acked when the mask was active as there is no mask in the enq packet in TMP packets.

2.    fixed packet timer with no error control. now prints an error to log every second if a major problem

 

New features:

        Cleaned up the mask for the STC. new Startup config parameters must match the STC transmitter number to make the mask work correctly.

        In the RBH system the STC are 2,3,4.  The new config associates the STC mask to the transmitter number which is hard coded into the physical STC

 

Added to config StartUp table

Key_Description         Key_Data             Description
STC1_TX_Number          4                    Transmitter Controller number (1-4)
STC2_TX_Number          3                    Transmitter Controller number (1-4)
STC3_TX_Number          2                    Transmitter Controller number (1-4)
 

 

 

2/11/2022

 

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (33) 11/10/2022

Bug fix:

1.    added ServerID in config to name application

2.    added exec name to config tab

3,    removed Tx4 in all configs

4.    Transmitter mask in Tools/Messaging tab only relate to messages sent directly to encoders.

 

New features:

Added to config StartUp table

Key_Description         Key_Data             Description
OverideInputMask            True
TxMask1                     False             For input mask only
TxMask2                     True              For input mask only
TxMask3                     False             For input mask only
WDOGMask                    07
WDOGNumber                  0008331
WDOGText                    This is the watchdog

OverideInputMask and TxMask1 to 3 are the stored values for the new Input tab Transmitter mask.

Settings are saved when changed.

These settings override all queued messages.

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (17) 19/8/2022

 

19/8/2022

Bug fix:

Fixed incorrect expiry comment on startup.

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (14) 19/8/2022

Logging has changed. See bottom of this page

 

 

19/8/2022

New features:

Improved the logging to external debug port.

Changed the fatal messages for better detection on external debug port.

Now just FATAL and Warning messages

Created InsertFatalLog function.

Created new licence header to site specific exec

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (13) 19/8/2022

 

 

18/8/2022

New features:

New look. The Tabs have been rearranged to be more logical in appearance.

Added a Decoder Tab.

Added licence and expiry date check for hardware. The application must match the encoder firmware. Go to the Licence page and follow the directions. Here

Added a Tools Tab. Messaging and TCP Control are now under Tools.

TNPP to TMP pager interface to protocol translation.

TMP to TNPP pager interface to protocol translation.

TNPP watchdog upgrade for encoders. (Fixes LOPA (loss of packet activity) problem).

Application is specific to site: RBWH GUI V2.0 (8) 18/8/2022

 

Configuration Changes:

Add new STC Clients. Port Type must be DECODE and Device must be STC1, STC2, STC3.

The description can be any text and is used as a label in the decoder log.

 

Add EnableDecodeLog config

 

Input Ports Tab (Under Tools Tab in the top menu)

The log now split into two logs. Left log for all input activity. The right is for all outbound activity to the encoders.

 

 

Messaging Tab (Under Tools Tab in the top menu)

Add new messaging buttons. Send Q sends the messages to the queue.

Cyclic messaging will only send messages to the queue.

The Send Direct bypasses the queue. Messages are sent directly to the hardware.

Care should be taken in this mode as messages can compete with queued messages.

The main reason for the Send Direct is to test the encoders before the input ports are active or to perform specific capcode tests.

 

 

Decoder Tab

A new Decoder Tab has been added. It will decode a single STC debug stream in two formats, Raw and normal POCSAG decode. The STC can be selected from option selection. The output is also sent to a log if required. The log file is called decode.log in the Logs directory.

 

 

 

10/6/2022      V1.1 (3) 10/6/2022

New features:

  1. Added functionality to send message to other encoder if a message times out with no response.
  2. Added more GUI fatal messages if no encoders present
  3. Disabling the TMP check box also stops the watchdog to the encoder.
    1. This is used to allow an encoder LOPA to expire and reset the power to the encoder.
  4. added Watchdog to Encoder status

Bug Fixes:

  1. cleaned up debug port for strings with no CR
  2. improved master/slave detection on startup
  3. on close of application, close all the client sockets.

 

 

8/6/2022      V1.1 (2) 8/6/2022

New features:

  1. Added global for No Encoders
  2. Added Button to clear input queue.
  3. If queue is not empty and there are no encoders, the queue is stopped from processing.

Bug Fixes:

  1. Changed Server.log to InputPort.log.

 

7/6/2022      V1.0 (12) 6/6/2022

Bug Fixes:

  1. Improved TCP processing on client debug port.
    • Found loop counter problem
    • changed LEN() from Integer to Long

 

6/6/2022      V1.0 (10) 6/6/2022

New features:

  1. Que size now 50
  2. Added Button to Input tab to send a message to the Input queue. Message content taken from the TMP tab.
  3. Added RAWTCP checkboxes. The input is simply added to the log for each TCP packet. No processing of the packet occurs in the debug and TCP Control tabs. Message processing is still maintained in the Input tab.
  4. Added Encoder selection for messaging. The GUI now takes responsibility for delivering messages to either encoder.

     

    •     Messages are sent to one encoder until a count level is exceeded then the messages are send to the other encoder
    •     If one encoder is not responding all messages are diverted to the working encoder.
    •     If neither encoder is responding, messages are CANCELed back to the pager software.
    •     Encoders are determined to be active if they respond to a ENQ packet.

Bug Fixes:

  1. Improved TCP processing on server and clients.

     

    •     SOH string are now removed where the encoders have been idle and come back on line.
    •     Split packets are now processed correctly

 

 

1/6/2022      V1.0 (8) 1/6/2022

New features:

  1. Added raw logging on TCP Clients. (Replaces normal logging. Logs the TCP packet only, no interpretation of the information.

 

Bug Fixes

  1. fixed some logging functions.
  2. changed Debug logging to CR limited display.
  3. changed the edit button on config tab to update the sockets on any field change.
  4. added check timer when socket is in transition. This will close the socket after 5 minutes.
  5. changed Input tab. Created a new frame for controls.
