driver bacnet mstp driver jtekt toyopuc cmp link ethernet jtekt toyopuc cmp link serial torque tool open protocol ethernet note that the jtekt toyopuc cmp link driver was separated into the two new drivers mentioned above for the drivers, maximum register address limits are set and data processing is improved for register types the opc ua client advanced driver now supports locale settings the allen bradley df1 serial driver now supports micrologix plcs analytics analytics provides a new rate limiter processor node the filewriter processor now supports user defined output columns for parquet files high availability a beta version of high availability is introduced in this release now you can define and configure primary and backup edge instances in system > high availability http proxy you can now redirect data traffic through an http proxy server for the device management, authentication, and licensing components configure the server in system > network > proxy or through an api enhancements and improvements description devicehub the s7commplus driver now supports browsing, reading, and writing on multiple instance data blocks the torque tool ethernet driver has been enhanced with support for mid0019 and other improvements heidenhain 640 ethernet (gen1 3) and heidenhain 530 ethernet (gen1 3) drivers now support writing to the file register type the koyo ethernet

output relay (word), data register (32 bit), and data register (string) improved manufacturing connect edge's resource usage and performance with large numbers of devicehub devices and limited resources spaces are now automatically replaced with underscores in new browse task names station id no longer displays in the edit tag dialog when override station id is configured for a device polling interval no longer displays in the add tag dialog when driver type is set to subscription for the opc ua client advanced driver sql driver query fields have increased character limits to allow for larger and more complex queries various improvements have been made for the arm 64 builds mqtt generic and mqtt generic over ssl connector have been removed from manufacturing connect edge with this release and replaced gen2 connectors analytics improved wire processor creation and switching between wire types wire types are now defined by downstream processor logic for improved usability a new plc uptime/downtime tracker processor enables you to track kpi downtime periods based on specific plc values that indicate uptime or downtime states now json and array datatype parameters and variables are exported from template downloads as json objects and arrays this makes it easier for you to edit json parameters applications a visual indicator now displays to show that catalogs are opening in applications > catalog apps the applications > marketplace now displays all catalog apps before applying filters instead of an empty state you can now easily add multiple headers in text format in the https proxy dialog integrations advanced connection settings for kafka connectors are now located under advanced parameters inbound subscriptions in integration connectors now support dot notation in local topics validation has been improved when entering a source path for a cloud storage sync job system the last modified date for users now displays in system > access control > users > manage users improved user experience with 2fa setup added missing logs in docker support bundle docker edge applications no longer display in the dashboard for manufacturing connect edge instances running in docker as containers do not run in this deployment method options that do not apply to manufacturing connect edge instances running in docker have been removed from system > device management > template docker compose with docker compose, containers with the same network name are now added to that network a new network is also created in cases where no network exists resolved issues description devicehub fixed issue where quotes were not preserved when uploading tags from a csv file fixed a response timeout issue where a delay intended for an ethernet connection recovery was also applied to serial connections now the delay no long occurs for serial connections analytics fixed issue where no error notification displayed when adding an invalid variable name in analytics > variables fixed issue where flows manager was unresponsive when flows manager encountered unexpected flow contents now you can now update analytics processor names applications fixed an issue where deleting a docker compose application deployed from manufacturing connect marketplace removed the associated network in manufacturing connect integrations fixed an issue where the influxdb integration connector required a manual reconnect when the influxdb application stopped and started again system fixed an issue where the auth category was included in templates used to backup and restore litmus edge instances this caused an override of authentication configurations, such as ldap, on those instances an error message now displays when attempting to add a user who already exists in an external directory, such as ldap upgrades in some cases, a failed to check firmware upgrade status max retry attempts exceeded error displayed in manufacturing connect after upgrading a manufacturing connect edge device, even though the device was upgraded successfully
