Introduction 1 Introduction The new MM8000 software release MP4.10-01 is available. These release notes provide the characteristics of the new software, including bug corrections and known issues. We recommend that users carefully read this document before installing and using the software. This document includes and replaces the release notes published for MP4.10. 1.1 MP4.10-01 at a glance MM8000 MP4.10-01 is a bug-correction service release for latest complete setup (MP4.10).
Introduction Visibility and command permissions associated to user groups have been reor- ganized and make consistent between treatment and plant browser. Composer MP4.10 provides a structured toolbar and allows configuring both 3.20 and 4.10 projects. An import command is available to recreate the DMS7000 tree in Composer automatically. Improved support of redundant server configuration with station fault events. Transactions (e.g.
What’s new in MP4.10 releases 2 What’s new in MP4.10 releases This section presents the enhancements provided in the new MM8000 software, starting from MP4.10, compared with previous MP3.20-xx. 2.1 MP4.10-01 bug correction ID Description Notes 8154 Problems in CC11 imported texts could occur, e.g. position of brackets. Also corrected in MM8000 MP4.10 Hotfix #01 8560 NK822x line diagnostic messages could be missing in MM8000.
What’s new in MP4.10 releases assisted treatment procedure to block (select the grid view and double click the event icon to enter the advanced treatment). MM8000 MP4.10 Hotfix #05 8677 In dual screen settings, starting the History browser erroneously resulted in the Event List being minimized. 8680 The thick border frame (new in MP4.10), which indicates the alarmed point on the screen, was not properly represented on the alarm printouts (still in MP3.20 style).
What’s new in MP4.10 releases 2.2 MP4.10 features PC client functions DMS8000 used to provide an OPC server option (MK8000). OPC client functions are available for connecting to OPC servers and communicating with control units via OPC protocol. Both a “light” and a “full” integration are possible. “Light” integration comes with the standard product, and requires a more careful engineering than typical MM8000 subsystems but no software code development.
What’s new in MP4.10 releases Transactions and VB scripts in reactions and sequences Transactions can be included in reaction triggers and in sequence programs. When occurring (instantaneously), the transaction is evaluated during a programmable period of time (Transaction time) that allows other conditions (e.g. alarm states or other transactions) to happen and be tested along with the transaction. Organization modes can be included in triggers + effects of reactions and in sequence programs.
What’s new in MP4.10 releases SI410/420 Sintony upload via NK882x Configuration upload from SI410/420 Sintony used to be available only via a direct serial link to the control unit. Starting from MP4.10,. this is also possible through the NK882x connection line. Motion Detection (MD) events from SISTORE CX MD should be consistently configured in CX Config and MM8000 Composer (motion and sabotage detection in the CX camera nodes).

Installation and configuration procedures 3 Installation and configuration procedures 3.1 Software installation MM8000 MP4.10 is distributed with a complete and assisted setup procedure. For detailed information about the installation procedure, refer to the MM8000 ICC manual (document no. A6V10062413_a_en). 3.1.1 New systems: installing MP4.10 and then 4.10-01 Assuming a stand-alone MM8000 station, the MP4.10 installation procedure includes the following steps: 1. Check system requirements.
Installation and configuration procedures – – Make sure that no MM8000 client applications (including Composer and Simulation tools) are active. Copy the MP4.10-01 setup on a local drive, e.g. in the folder: C:\MM8000_MP4.10-01\... – Launch the command: Fix_MM8000 MP4.10.01.exe that upgrades all the software components. 8. Install the hardware key and enter the license code using the PAK Manager tool. Note that SiPass also requires a license option (Management Station Integration).
Updating from older releases 4 Updating from older releases 4.1 Software License All previous Composer and MM8000 licenses must be updated to MP4.10. Also, note that Service Keys whose contract expired in 2006 or earlier will not work with MP4.10 software. Those keys can no longer be used and need to be replaced by new service keys to be obtained opening new Composer contracts through standard sales channels. 4.
Updating from older releases 11.If SiPass is used, align the access control configuration. Different procedures are required depending on the database versions: – [Database 3.15-01 and earlier only] the SiPass node in the Composer tree must be deleted and then created again (note that the deletion will force you to reconfigure the access control points in maps, reactions, sequences, etc.). – [Database 3.15-02 and later] the alignment of the access control configuration is required.
Known issues in MP4.10 5 Known issues in MP4.10 This is a list of known limitations, problems, bugs and recommended practises at the time this software was released. Compared with previous Release Notes, new and updated points are marked by a side label for easier identification. 5.1 Installation MS Windows Vista Vista is not supported, yet (planned for MP4.15 in 2008). New in MP4.
Known issues in MP4.10 Clear History DB Rare cases of difficulties in the history functions have been reported after installation. In such cases, the FS-DMS support may recommend the use of the program: \Utilities\ToolsUtilities\EngineeringTools.exe This can clear (and optionally also resize) the database and solve the problem. Video applications Video applications require specific software (viewers and other utilities) to be installed before MM8000.
Known issues in MP4.10 5.2 Configuration Download failures Repetitive download attempts may cause failures. In this case, close Composer after each download and then reopen it. Also try the ‘Empty_DB’ procedure (see \Utilities\ToolsUtilities\EngineeringTools.exe). Opening previous release projects – – MM8000 MP3.15 projects: when opening a large (e.g.: 13,000 or more Composer nodes) MP3.15 project in Composer for the first time, please allow up to 50 minutes. MK8000 MP3.
Known issues in MP4.10 – – – – – – – 1552 - Digital output supervised; 1560 - Internal horn; 1561, 1564, 1565 - External horn; 1562 attribute = RTFIRE - “Alarm” remote transmission channel; 1562 attribute = RTFAULT - “Fault” remote transmission channel; 1562 attribute = RTOTHER - “Other” remote transmission channel. “Move” function in AlgoRex tool: the AlgoWorks “move” function, which allows CC11 objects to be moved in the tree structure, is not fully supported in MM8000 tools (ref. defect #5521).
Known issues in MP4.10 “Low virtual memory” error message to display. Should that occur, you can adjust the virtual memory size (i.e. the size of the paging file where Windows swaps the active memory areas on disk). Using the Administrator login, proceed as follows: – – Start Settings Control Panel System Advanced tab Performance Options Virtual memory “change” button.

Known issues in MP4.10 From MM8000, select ‘Change Server’ in the Composer Properties Management window, and select the SiPass server to connect. USB Printers If a USB printer reports a fault condition in MM8000, try to remove the Bidirectional Control option in the printer properties page. Please follow this procedure: 1. Open the USB printer properties window (see picture below). 2. Select the "Ports" tab. 3. Uncheck the option "Enable bidirectional support". 4.
Known issues in MP4.10 1. The SISTORE MX 2.55 must be used with the remote player of SISTORE MX 2.57 or later. 2. The archive player shows the control buttons (e.g. Play, Stop, Rewind, etc.) on the very right of the screen and therefore they are not visible most of the time. Note: The Replay Toolbar (WC1) in SISTORE MX 2.
