Known issues Installation issues 4 4 Known issues This section presents a list of known limitations, problems, bugs, and recommended practices at the time the software was released. Compared with previous Release Notes, new and updated points are marked by a side label for easier identification. 4.1 4.1.
4 Known issues Installation issues New in MP4.81 Installation difficulties: Some problems have been reported in installing the software (specifically the Visual C++ Redistributable Package prerequisite) just after the creation of a new virtual machine. Note that some problems may be resolved with a simple reboot. Before installing, we recommend to reboot at least once any new virtual machine. The use of virtual machines may impose severe limitations to live video functionalities.
Known issues Installation issues 4 then selecting Merge. Note that this technique is not recommended and it will not work on 64-bit Windows platforms. Instead, use the PAK Manager Import command as documented in the installation and configuration guides. Demo mode stops after 2 hours Note that systems starting in demo mode will stop operating after 2 hours, even if a valid license is installed during demo operations. To enable the licensed mode, always restart the server after installing the license.
4 Known issues Upgrade and migration issues Localised Composer applied to multiple database versions The translation kit includes the Composer tool models that contain translated default point texts for the Composer configuration. When a new subsystem is created in Composer, the initial point list includes the translated texts.
Known issues Configuration issues 4 STT20: upgrading from MP3.15 STT20 metafile needs to be re-imported after restoring an MP3.15 projects. Otherwise, the download may fail. 4.3 4.3.1 Configuration issues Composer and Tools Issues Composer runs very slowly after installations on Windows 7 Composer response can be quite slow when it is used just after a new Windows 7 installation immediately followed by the DMS8000 software installation. Restarting the PC can solve this difficulty.
4 Known issues Configuration issues Performance issues with Composer via Remote Desktop When using Composer via Remote Desktop, you may experience a slow response, for example in general screen refresh and in setting/resetting the default of a large set of parameters.
Known issues Configuration issues New in MP4.81 4 two separate depths, the system creates multiple calculated pages to ensure the navigation in all cases. The side effect is that you will also get multiple links supporting a horizontal navigation. Unlike the AutoCAD 2010 library, MM8000 does not support "OLE objects with empty data". This incompatibility can cause issues in the maps visualization and preview. In case of problems, please contact the customer support [➙ 51] to correct the map.
4 Known issues Configuration issues SI410 Sintony Uploader SI410 provides one TCP port for external hosts to connect over TCP/IP network (Sintony IP Port 2 field in the Sylcom Tool / System configuration). In connecting to SI410 in IP mode, the Sintony Uploader makes use of this port as does the NS8014 DMS8000 driver for the runtime connection. This implies that you need to stop the DMS8000 server software before being able to use the Sintony Uploader that applies this type of connection.
Known issues Configuration issues 4.3.6 4 System limitations Limitations in the number of commands from scheduled and manual tasks Tasks defined in the MM8000 scheduler should not include more than 255 commands. Large tasks including such a high number of commands should be split into smaller tasks. SMS in Unicode-PDU mode When text messages (SMS) are sent in Unicode-PDU mode, the phone numbers must be inserted in the DMS8000 Contacts with the international prefix, for example +393481234567 4.3.
4 Known issues Runtime issues 4.4 4.4.1 Runtime issues Critical software issues Restart/shutdown errors (ES server crash) on virtual machines When running on virtual machines, the ES server may crash while Windows starts up or closes down. These errors may result in some data not being properly saved (especially in the history archive). To solve the problem, please follow the instructions below: 1. Create a file named MM8000Shutdown.cmd that contains the text "C:\Program Files\DMS8000\Utilities\Bat\STOP_
Known issues Runtime issues 4 Low virtual memory events Depending on the specific configuration and on the PC hardware characteristics, MM8000 software may use up the memory resources in Windows and cause the 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: 1.
4 Known issues Runtime issues In such a case, note that the Back button command works in the Main View and does not select again the Preferred View. To avoid this effect, make sure to include all linked pages in the Preferred View. Reoccurring event: date and time is not refreshed in assisted treatment In case of a reoccurring event, the date & time is properly updated in the event list.
Known issues Runtime issues 4 until the printer will be reconnected. Problem is present from MP3.20 and later version. Slow login Logging on in may be slow (about 30 sec) when using MM8000 in closed mode. Audio recordings in history records of dialler operating procedure steps In Windows 8.1 systems (32 bit), you cannot open the history audio attachments of operating procedure steps. The problem is related to the default Windows 8.1 app, which does not allow administrator users to open wave files.
4 Known issues Runtime issues accessing MM8000 Web Server and Web Services. To resolve this problem, do the following: 1. Start Internet Explorer 2. Select Tools > Internet Options 3. Click the Security tab 4.

Divar DVRs: – In case of a Divar IP camera fault, a no "Camera Signal Loss" message is provided in the live video screen. – No indication or progress bar is provided for the recording search in the play-back screen. – Camera to monitor switching is not supported on Divar DVRs, whereas it can be used between Encoders/IP cameras and Decoders.
4 Known issues Runtime issues 4.4.10 NK8000 Network This is a list of known problems and limitations present in the current version. USB memory devices on NK823x Removing the USB key while the logging is enabled (without using the safely remove command) may cause the NK823x to restart or block (a manual restart is then needed). Always use the Safe Remove command before removing the USB memory device. Some specific USB memory models may not be compatible with NK823x. Note: File system: FAT32; 2-64 GB.
Known issues Runtime issues 4 Network-wide interactions involving NK823x that use different upstream protocols Note that network-wide interactions do not work properly across NK823x units that use two different upstream protocols (e.g. one is using CMSDL/IP and the other BACnet/IP). Fault events on unconnected Ethernet lines On existing NK823x Ethernet nodes with no configured connection, faults events are reported, thus indicating the missing network link (no cable or no hub/switch).
