eACM 2.0.0 August 2020

New + Improved

New Configuration Managers:
Edge Manager and AUTOSOL App Manager 2.0.0

• In an effort to improve future development as well as bug fixes, our Universal App Manager and our Edge Managers were redesigned to use the same base code.

• Communication between the Universal and Edge Managers is now exclusively through the MQTT protocol.

• Edge Manager (formerly App Manager) ships with its own web configuration site which will be available for initial configuration or any other local changes.

New UI

• Both Managers utilize the same User Interface. The improved tree view allows you to quickly change and configure items across different nodes in your network. The UI is accessible through HTTP on any browser.

• Multiple configuration tabs are now available. Like in other AUTOSOL products, we have now implemented tabs in our configuration interface. You will be able to quickly view and compare different items across your network of nodes.

• The Import/Export functionality has been expanded to apply to all types of items. You can import/export a whole Node, a single App, or a single Object.

• System Information now displays further information about the state of the manager. You can download that information as a report file from the System Info page.

• Log Viewer now has a way to download all log files from the system in a zipped archive format.
