KNOWN Issues (2.0.0 - March 2019)
CR764: With a newly created sensor, communication settings (TCP/SLMP) may be shown incorrectly.
Workaround:
- Create Sensor
- Press "OK" to get back to "Home" page
- Go to "Sensor" page
- Press "Refresh" button
- The sensor settings should now be shown correctly
CR747: Cannot access calibration result data for 2nd shuttling position.
- For shuttling camera, each shuttling position requires an individual calibration.
- When calibration has finished successfully, the calibration result details for this calibration will be displayed.
- When pressing the "Details" button on the main page, only the calibration details of the last executed calibration will be shown.
- Unless the motion system behaves differently at the two positions, the displayed calibration details for both shuttling positions are expected to be very similar anyway.
CR748: When changing the shuttled position of an existing Recipe using the combobox at the bottom of the Recipe page, the recipe must be saved using the "Save" button.
- The Shuttled Pos column will not be updated immediately. The user must leave and re-enter the Recipe page to see the update.
CR 762: When the PC gets gonnected to the sensor network after the AS200 setup application has been started, Sensors and cameras will not be properly discovered.
- Workaround: Exit and re-start the application while PC is connected to the network.
