ReticMaster Revision Notes
  Patches

=================================================================================================
Patch 8 - Build 1288 26 September 2006

1) 3-phase domestic connection Diversity correction factor for empirical method clipped the current. e.g. 3kVA ADMD with Imax = 60 A clipped current to 20A (see domestic graph in Options)

Patch 7 - Build 1286 25 September 2006

1) Deleting Conductors from data library - Conductor was not deleted from Conductor groups (fixed in this build)

Patch 6 - Build 1284 21 September 2006

1) User Options saving/reading improvements - Load category data (ADMD settings per category improved)
2) Ability to accommodate more conductors in conductor groups (increased from a total of 500 to 10000)
3) Improvement in Excel OLE links for "Data Library OLE.xls", "Rm_ole.xls", "GetSet.xls"

Patch 5 - Build 1280 13 September 2006

1) User Options saving/reading improvements
2) Security DLL update to improve Oracle User Option saving/reading

 Patch 4 - Build 1278 31 August 2006

1) OLE Modifications / Additions

Parameter Integrity checks for Transformers and Regulators
----------------------------------------------------------
The CreateTrfrNodeEx1 CreateRegulatorNodeEx functions are expanded to enable parameter integrity checks (e.g checks if the impedance values are valid). Doubles and Integers can be assigned a special unkown value of 9999 and bytes that represent boolean values (e.g LockTap Flag) can be assigned a special unkown value of 2. In these cases, or when obvious errors are entered such as negative impedance, ReticMaster will search the data library for an existing transformer and/or regulator and will use the data parameter of the found transformer and/or regulator. If the transformer and/or regulator do not exist in the library, then ReticMaster will use the first transformer and/or regulator n the data library to assign valid parameter data.

GetSecurityModel function
This function returns an integer depending on which security model is used
Result = 0 for dongle based security
Result = 1 for software based security
Result = 2 for server based security

DoLogin function
Login function for server based security

DoSilentLogin function
Silent Login function for server based security

DoLogOff function
Login function for server based security

IsLoggedIn function
Test if logged in for server based security

Get_ShowMessages function
Returs existing "show messages" flag in Options

Set_ShowMessages function
Sets/Cancels "show messages" flag in Options

SetDataLibraryReadOnly function
Set Data Library file as Read Only - or remove Read Only flag

2) New Data Libraries are added to the Setup with revised VoltagewConductor and Trfr Data:
Data Library.mdb - default from build 1278
Data Library.ii
Data Library Template.mdb1
Data Library OLE.xls

3) New ReticMaster help file released

4) Motor Starting simulation - improvent in capturing the start and end data points

 Patch 3 - Build 1266 03 August 2006

 1) A new Property (ShowMessages) is available via OLE, for the suppression of error messages.
 2) Text data library file saving (e.g. Data Library.ii) is updated to handle more conductors in conductor groups
 3) ReticMaster file saving (e.g. Data Untitled.rmd) is updated to handle more conductors in conductor groups
 4) User Options (Tools\Options) are saved to Oracle or MSSQL database if the user is logged on, otherwise in Windows Registry as per existing functionality.
 5) A new security dll (IILibS.dll) is required to accommodate the User Option saving functionality to Oracle and MSSQL.
 6) Options/Domestic - DCF curve formula using British and DT curves for 3-phase ADMD corrected (out by factor 3)
 7) New Data Libraries are added to the Setup with revised Conductor and Trfr Data:
     Data Library.mdb
     Data Library.ii
     Data Library Template.mdb1
     Data Library OLE.xls
 8) Data Library.mdb and Data Library Template.mdb1 updated voltage table to accommodate 19.053kV (field size increased)
 9) Motor Start profiles improved (not required to add two start and two end data points any more)
 =================================================================================================
 Patch 2 - Build 1259 06 June 2006
 
 1) OLE - Changing node status opens\closes node properly
 2) OLE - Transformer SetData routines : improvements on phase connection checking
 =================================================================================================
 Patch 1 - Build 1257 02 June 2006
 
 1) Data Library path is saved in Options
 2) OLE functions will create transformer and regulator data with all the specifications as set by the calling application e.g. SmallWorld or Excel. If the data entry does not exist then it will be created.
 3) The Change Down tool, Domestic Unbalance routine, had a small bug where the balancing method transferred service connections from service cables to the LV backbone (correct), did the balancing (correct), but the required transfer of balanced service connections from the backbone to the service cables did not happen (incorrect). This has been fixed.
