RETICMASTER REVISION: V2006 TO V2008
===================================================================================================

These release notes are for ReticMaster 2008 build 1366 and covers the updates from ReticMaster 2006 Build 1163. Please refer to the ReticMaster Help for more information.

Initial released version build 1344

===================================================================================================
Patch 0 - Build 1346 23 April 2008 (not released)
-------------------------------------------------
===================================================================================================

1) Improved Remove Transformer tool (Main Menu\Tools\Remove Transformers)
The Remove Transformer tool is modified as follows:
a) Domestic Load on Transformer secondary is converted to an equivalent bulk load using ADMD & Diversity calculation methods. 
This ensures a correct LV to MV load translation in the case where many transformers with different domestic parameters exist.
b) Load Nodes with Bulk Load Categories having fixed PF, CF or SF are allocated new load categories with variable PF, CF and SF
c) Transformers are replaced by primary MV Load Nodes using the same phasing and technology as per the transformer primary winding.
2) Fix error on Domestic Load Category.

Notes: 
-----

a) ReticMaster allocates a Domestic Load Category per Transformer Node which sets the correct Empirical and Statistical 
parameters for volt drop calculations for the LV network supplied by the Transformer Node - No problem here.
b) For networks without transformers, the current selected Domestic Load Category (Tools\Options\Domestic Tab) is used to determine
the appropriate Empirical and Statistical parameters - this did not work properly and ReticMaster allocated the last Category in the list 
as the default which is not correct - Now Fixed.

Patch 1 - Build 1348 30 April 2008
----------------------------------
===================================================================================================

1) General internal security updates

===================================================================================================
Patch 2 - Build 1358 15 September 2008
--------------------------------------
===================================================================================================

1) The Conductor Optimisation routine has been totally rewritten and now includes a "From Node" conductor resistance check to ensure correct feeder sizing throughout  
2) The Remove Transformers routine has been improved
3) Voltage regulator node display text has been enabled - bug fix (it previously showed nothing on the diagram)
4) The automatic Domestic Balancing flag in options is set to False by default (previously set to True)
5) General non-critical operational improvements

===================================================================================================
Patch 3 - Build 1360 31 October 2008
------------------------------------
===================================================================================================

1) File\Data + New Transformer caused a non-serious error message - fixed in this build

===================================================================================================
Patch 4 - Build 1362 12 November 2008
-------------------------------------
===================================================================================================

1) Voltage and Technology integrity improvement for Single Phase to Dual Phase Technology conversions

===================================================================================================
Patch 5 - Build 1366 02 December 2008
-------------------------------------
===================================================================================================

1) Domestic load transfer to primary of same voltage transformers in series and regulators in series improved
2) Regulator Current display is fixed on the Single Line Diagram
3) Fixed OLE calls allocated phasing as UNK where it should be SP (Single Phase) or AN, BN or CN 
4) 3-phase domestic loads for Delta networks is now exposed to the user
5) Load node edits are possible without a source node connection
6) Technology and voltage changes are removed from the Change Down and Change Up tool. 

All Technology and Voltage changes are now managed by simply editing transformer and Load nodes.

===================================================================================================
Patch 5 - Build 1368 08 April 2009
----------------------------------
===================================================================================================

1) Fixed the Phase Balancing routine (non-domestic) that became non-functional in build 1366. Please refer to the Change Down Tool.
2) Single Phase Bulk loads did not allow user editing in build 1366.
