  • Corrected outdated descriptions on administration pages.

    • Sortable and searchable results table with Timestamp, Logcode and Log Message.

    • Automatic subscription to messages is intended for the device when the device view page is viewed. This allows the user to confirm command results from the protocol that do not display in the Command Event Log, as well as Alias poll details. Note, this does use a WCF asiLogger service connection, so ACM admins must ensure ample resources are available.

    • Responsive output conforms to screen size and type.

  • User Session Activity Persisted to Database

    • Persist User Session Activity Storage option on Server settings. When enabled, all user session activity log entries will be stored in the portal database.

Version 1.0.0.4 (Beta)

  • Fixed an issue with inconsistent logging to Windows Event Log

  • Fixed an issue with un-needed logging to Windows Event Log

  • Fixed an issue with user Lockouts not correctly applying attempts before reaching the max

  • Fixed an issue with AliasGroupSet properties not correctly displaying the group names

  • Fixed an issue with Device Properties with enumerated values not correctly mapping the value causing the UI to report the No Properties are configured to be viewed message.

  • Added the ability to filter on Meter names (assigned to the device) when searching for devices.

  • Fixed an issue with Login attempts not detecting ACM being offline or unreachable and counting them as invalid login attempts. Users can now detect if ACM is offline during a login attempt.

  • Modified the Alias Polling items display to be tabular on larger device screens to ease in reading larger result sets.

  • Improved WCF service (ACM Services) connectivity feedback across the website. Connection failures are distinguished from merely having no results to return.

  • Modified the Device Command logic to no longer operate on a call-back timer that makes the user interface wait a set amount of time regardless of the process. Call back update messages are now updated as they come from ACM leaving the service connection present while the user is on the device view. (The Command Service in ACM may need to have the TCP Sessions increased to allow multiple Configuration Clients and Portal Users connections at the same time)

    • This fixes an issue with longer running tasks such as Retrieve History or Demand Polls that exceed the artificial timeout of 15 seconds imposed before.
