Release notes from modular-psu-firmware

1.7.6

2023-07-27T11:06:33Z

#315 External voltage protection doesn't work in INHibit mode
#316 Auto-recall fails when trigger is set to LIST
#317 Auto start script not working in 1.7.5

1.7.5

2022-12-01T07:42:23Z

#314 The current autoranging is stuck in a low range when the output is turned on

1.7.4

2022-11-30T20:15:14Z

Note: this release is strongly recommended if the DCP405 module is used to charge batteries. With #9 (enabled by default) it will not be possible to enable power output with the battery connected. This feature will force you to first enable the output and only then connect the battery you want to charge.

Fix for eez-open/dib-mio168-fw#5
Auto-recall fix for DCP R3B2
#9 Measure output voltage before output is switched on
#255 Feature request: warning when enabling channel onto live battery
#311 Rule for accepting a new ethernet connection and releasing the old one
#312 OFF state current settings
#313 Auto-recall info in log file

#274 EEZ flow Progress bar overflows
#276 EEZ flow empty select causes restart of BB3
#277 EEZ flow SCPI string has quotes
#278 Writing a string to a variable doesn't work
#279 EEZ flow comparison in switch not always working as expected
#280 Text widget action generates a number, where integer is expected
#285 EEZ flow: Button widgets don't always show updated text
#286 EEZ flow start after displaying pinout page restarts BB3

1.7.3

2021-10-26T12:24:47Z

#252 Function generator issue with 4 power channels
#266 DEBUg? doesn't work anymore
#275 Problem with DCP405 calibration
#282 Add SCPI query SCRipt:RUN? to find out the name of running script

1.8 Alpha

2021-10-22T13:40:48Z

This is the first pre-release that allows testing of EEZ Studio v0.9.87 debugger functionality.

Please note that various instabilities are possible, therefore it is not recommended to be used in production.

1.7.2

2021-10-19T11:37:53Z

The firmware solves several issues with MIO168 and improves the operation of the encoder, which on some MCU modules could reverse the direction at higher rotation speeds.

#261 Restart (fault) on attempt to change NPLC after calibration
#263 MIO168 current calibration error
#268 Increase relays timeout over 100 ms
#269 Encoder doesn't work correctly with some MCU modules

1.7.1

2021-07-08T16:23:49Z

This release introduces a custom bootloader that makes this and all future firmware download easier using EEZ Studio (v0.9.84 or newer).

#215 Firmware updates from SD
#237 Function Generator preview has misleading aliasing artefact
#239 Current range selection when LIST or function generator is active
#240 Autostart.py script support
#242 Function generator stuck with 4-ch selected
#244 Modify default MAC to new one based on MCU ID

1.7

2021-07-01T13:35:57Z

A simple function generator has been added in this release (#198). The data logger (DLOG) can now work with multiple channels and supports the sampling rate of the MIO168 module as well as the addition of a bookmark. UART (DIN1 / DOUT1 pins on the front panel) now allows communication with other devices but also control of BB3 using SCPI commands (#19). Two additional protection mechanisms have been added for the DCP405 module (#195, #202).

#19 SCPI via UART
#20 Add support for timestamped text in DLOG
#42 Add support for MIO168 module
#45 Add support for PREL6 module
#128 MQTT can't connect to broker without authentication

#164 DISP:TEXT doesn't display last character from the string
#169 Feature Request: Option to hide recording status window
#171 Clear DLOG REMark and X axis label when DLOG is started through GUI
#174 Step menu allows negative delay setting with encoder
#176 DLOG view doesn't remember settings
#178 Dlog window at bottom of screen causes flashing at the top
#180 Add hold delay on Lock display option
#182 Set execution time for the route:close and route:open SCPI commands
#183 The GUI Shutdown option does not turn off AC power

#200 Change the User SW function if the channel outputs are in INHibit mode
#202 Continuous checking of output voltage on DCP module
#203 "Wrong thread 6" message when limit is set below set level via SCPI and GUI (volt or current) on DCP405
#204 Display connection diagram for coupled DCP modules
#205 CapReform fixes
#206 Reorganizing the status bar
