Change log miCon-L

Devicepack V3.8.1.0 (2021-12-17)
  - New: support of WCU860S (templates, examples, image)

  • Note: WCU860S is compatible with STG-860 (->Centralization of sample projects in the directory "..\miCon-L\PROJECT\SAMPLE_PROGS\STG-8XX")

  - New: sample project "REMANENCE_TEST" for STG-8XX
  - Change: Updating of the USB/RS-232 driver in the directory "..\miCon-L\SETUP\USBdriver" from V2.08.28 to V2.12.36.4
  - Change: Centralization of the general test projects for STG-8XX and WCU860S in the directory "..\miCon-L\PROJECT\SAMPLE_PROGS\STG-8XX" (BENCHMARK, LIB_TEST, REMANENCE_TEST)
  - Bugfix: usable remanence memory size for the STG-8XX: The full size of 128 bytes is now supported (firmware version V1.1.0.0 required, refer to changelog)
  - Bugfix: the problem of getting stuck when opening a project due to loading issues with printer fonts will be avoided now.

Devicepack V3.8.0.0 (2018-10-01)
  - New: support of STG-860 (templates, input/output library, and examples)
  - New: design of projects largely unified and simplified (templates, examples)
  - New: quick start templates (standard projects with simple input/output access)
  - New: additional functions for STG-8xx (PWM High Resolution Mode, GetPower Error, UserRemanence-BIT/BYTE)
  - New: benchmark projects for STG-8xx
  - Change: images of the controller removed from the majority of the templates and examples (images are collected in "miCon-L\IMAGES")
  - Change: aids reworked (input/output blocks, tools, CAN Layer 2 for STG-8xx)
  - Change: test project "LIB_TEST" enhanced for STG-8xx (edge detection, flip-flops) and minor errors simultaneously corrected
  - Change: "First Steps" reworked
  - Change: CAN bit rate setting for STG-8xx also possible with comma (83.333) (not downward compatible to older devicepacks)
  - Bugfix: recovery of newly created projects works correctly now
  - Known issue: usable remanence memory size for the STG-8XX. Errors are displayed during download if more than 32 bytes of remanence memory are used.
  - Known issue: getting stuck when opening a project. It can happen that miCon-L gets stuck when opening a project due to system dependencies in the fonts.

  • Workaround: keep operating system and drivers up to date (reinstallation of Windows)

Devicepack V3.7.0.3 (2017-11-02)

 Devicepack V3.7.0.1 (2017-10-26)
  - Change: incomplete template for STG-85 has been removed.

  - Change: enhancement of the example "LIB_TEST"
  - Bugfix: STG-800 (FlowChart)
