This release includes a number of new features and the correction of bugs of the previous release 3.3.0.
•Real-time oscilloscope (plug-in OSC)
•Variables monitor (plug-in MON)
•Ladder diagram editor (plug-in LADED)
•Commands shell (plug-in SHELL)
•CANopen configurations editor (plug-in COCED)
•Ascii editor (plug-in AEDITOR)
General
Improved the control of the external modifications to files opened and modified with the editor in RDE3.
Added new support for logic type variables (for more info see BCC/31 communication protocol).
Updated the RDE3 documentation.
Added the support for multiple licence files and eliminated the requisite of the fix name (USER.LIC). At start up RDE3 now checks the presence of the licence files (*.LIC). If only one is found, RDE3 will automatically activate it; if more files are found RDE3 opens a selection window.
Reviewed the variable selection window: they are now displayed in one list only, grouped per their type. Added the possibility to search any text depending on the chosen column in the list.
Added new logic variables handling, as a support to the new RPE structures.
Changed default RDE3 proposed installation path to C:\Robox\Rde3\ (C: or your boot drive).
Added new handling and predefined samples.
Realtime oscilloscope (plug-in OSC)
Added the storage of the current position of the time base for data import/export.
Fixed the initial positioning on data import without position information on the time base (default at the data start).
Fixed auto-scroll timing when dragging the V1-V2 bars.
Fixed the interface for variable selection keyboard in the properties windows.
Variables monitor (plug-in MON)
Fixed the interface for variable selection keyboard, in the properties window.
RRT project (plug-in RRT)
Fixed the terminology (folders, files, flash, etc).
RTE project (plug-in RTE)
Fixed the control of paths correctness (without spacing/punctuation) in the source file .R3 when compiling the R3.ELF programs with RC3E (as it happens for instance for R3.COF programs).
Added the complete support for the design and definition of the RTE configuration, that is of the configuration of axes, power sets and groups of axes (RPE support).
Added the support for the optional generation of the configuration files such as RTE.CFG, IPADDR.DEF, etc, depending on the defined RTE configuration.
Added the support for the optional generation of the definition files R3, files CFGDEFS.I3, depending on the defined RTE configuration.
Added the support for the special flash folder (/key).
Amended the project terminology (folders, files, flash, etc).
Added the support for the new type of file called "Path library" (file with extension .PTH).
REMARKS: even if it is compatible with the previous RDE release, the RTE project could loose some information, for example the R3.ELF programs if RTE is opened with an RDE3 release lower than 3.3.0, or the RTE configuration if it is opened with RDE3 release lower than 3.4.0.
Ladder diagram editor (plug-in LADED)
Corrected the synchronization of the local ladder process with the remote one.
Corrected the search (and relevant keyboard interface) in the search and variables selection window.
Command shell (plug-in SHELL)
Corrected the evaluation of values 'TRUE' and 'FALSE' in upper case.
Corrected the bug (crash) occurring on multiple download requests (by more windows) of the remote variables in the same connection.
Added the command RUN for the execution of programs external to the shell (HELP RUN for more info).
Added the command MSGBOX to display the text messages (HELP MSGBOX for more info).
Doubled the number of quick commands : beside the usual ones (from F1 to F12) other 12 quick commands can now be assigned, from Shift+F1 to Shift+12.
CANopen configurations editor (plug-in COCED)
Minor corrections on the keyboard interface
Ascii editor (plug-in AEDITOR)
Fixed the bug on the Backspace key in presence of the selected text.
Modified the text indent keys: now Tab increases the indent while Shift+Tab reduces it.
