Version 4.2k from May 14, 2008
Bugfix. The calculation of cylinder chamber volumes has been corrected.
Compatibility. Some more adoptions to the new EasyPorts have been made.
Compatibility. Fixes a file storing problem on some network drives.
Bugfix. The line definitions within exported DXF files are now valid.
Bugfix. Setting up the hydraulic resistance caused an error message on
non-European Windows versions.
Version 4.2i from January 9, 2008
Bugfix. The condition of an "action on event" was evaluated only once in
a given situation. Thus, the action was not executed anymore, when its
condition turned true subsequently.
Bugfix. A hyperlink to the component descriptions has been corrected.
Bugfix. A dialog text was not translated correctly.
Version 4.2h from December 12, 2007
New feature. Closer in electrical circuits that are actuated in initial position are now displayed as opener (and vice versa).
Compatibility. The baud rate for serial communication has been adopted to the new EasyPort.
Compatibility. FluidSIM Input and Output components are now set to "EzOPC.2" as default.
Bugfix. Solves a problem when connecting GRAFCET-IO components with the Logic Module.
The maximum string length for GRAFCET actions and transitions has been increased.
Bugfix. Sometimes incorrect text input of GRAFCET actions was not detected reliably.
Bugfix. The units in cylinder's property dialog were not displayed correctly in some cases.
New feature. The unit for cylinder velocity can now be switched from m/s to in/s and ft/s, respectively.
Bugfix. Some hyperlinks to the component descriptions have been corrected.
Version 4.2d from October 8, 2007
New feature. A warning comes up when invalid label names in GRAFCET I/O
components are detected.
New feature. The activating enclosing step's names for partial GRAFCETs
are now displayed already in edit mode.
Bugfix. Transition names were sometimes not displayed correctly.
Some sample circuits have been updated.
Bugfix. Input and output connections of GRAFCETs were sometimes assigned
incorrectly.
Version 4.2 vom September 19, 2007
FluidSIM now contains Elements to draw and to simulate GRAFCET diagrams.
Eliminates a unit error in the in the didactic part.
The minimum voltage level to activate valve solenoids is corrected.
This prevents two valve solenoids in series connection to reverse the associated valves.
Repairs an error in text adjustment when printing.
Version 4.0g from February 2, 2007
Bugfix. The connection of pressure switch symbols did not work correctly in rare cases.
Compatibility. FluidSIM's online-help is now in CHM format since Windows Vista does no longer support HLP files.
Bugfix. Corrects some of the tutorial pages.
Bugfix. Shortcuts in electrical systems were sometimes not detected correctly.
New feature. When switching to the next topic of a presentation, the tree view width now remains unchanged.
Version 4.0f from August 24, 2006New feature. A new magnetic actuation can now be assigned to configurable way valves as an additional mechanical operation mode.
Bugfix. New PCs sometimes had problems with the playback of educational films and animated sectional views respectively. The flash player plug-in interface has now been updated.
The descriptions of way valves within FluidSIM's sample circuits have been revised.
Version 4.0e from July 7, 2006
Bugfix. An error in connection with the setpoint value card has been fixed.
Version 4.0d from June 16, 2006
Bugfix. An error in connection with the functional diagram editor has been fixed.
New feature. The pneumatic pressure switch in its electrical representation can now be actuated by mouse click in the same way as proximity switches.
Bugfix. The flow rate displayed in state diagrams was not converted correctly from g/s into l/min.
New feature. The state diagram's ordinate axis is now printed out with less number of decimals. Thus, diagrams are displayed more clearly.
Version 4.0b from May 8, 2006
Bugfix. An error occurred when simulating digital circuits with two digital modules connected to each other.
Version 4.0a from April 18, 2006
Bugfix. The didactics topic [40] of the pneumatics version has been corrected.
First release of FluidSIM 4 Hydraulics.
Version 4.0 from February 2, 2006
First, official release of FluidSIM 4 Pneumatics.
