Change Logs

Bugs

• Resolved an issue where repeated pod swaps could cause device instability over time.
• Resolved an issue that could cause devices to stop functioning correctly after a limited number of pod swaps.
• Improved device behavior during server outages by reducing unnecessary communication attempts, lowering the risk of data loss or connection errors.
• Improved clock accuracy and reliability under fallback conditions.

Features and Enhancements

• Added support for the latest Telit WiFi module firmware (v39.03.012), ensuring continued compatibility with Touchscreen devices.

Bugs

• Resolved a bug where the logger used an old token to communicate and therefore failed to post data to DicksonOne
• Resolved a bug where calibration dates had discrepancies
• Resolved a bug where old unsent readings were associated with a new sensor serial number after sensors were swapped
• Resolved a bug where configuration packets were being sent from DWE logger while on battery power (NO AC power connected)
• Resolved a bug with RTC Synchronization related to Non-Sequential Reading Timestamps
• Resolved a bug where SSL_MAX_CONTENT_LEN is too small for Amazon Certs issue resolved

Enhancements

• DWE now sends sensor configuration packets before sending readings
• Communications are now only allowed over HTTPS (no more option to turn SSL off)
• A flag has been added to the API packets to identify the current sensor plugged into a data logger
• x509 TLS certs have been refreshed
• Rollback settings protection was added
• Added a “pod_port” field to the readings packet in the API
• Added SSID field in the main configuration file when DWE logger is communicating on Ethernet
• Added exponential retries to DWE when DicksonOne is unavailable
• Updated RTC Fallback Logic with every firmware release
• Removed channel & BSSID-based scanning
• Removed code from the firmware related to an old external battery pack no longer offered

Sensor Support

• Introduced compatibility with Oceasoft PT100 Smart-Sensor
• Introduced compatibility with Oceasoft Temperature and Humidity Smart-Sensor
• Introduced compatibility with Oceasoft Co2 Triple Smart-Sensor
• Introduced compatibility with Oceasoft Universal Smart-Sensor
• Introduced compatibility with Open/Close Sensors (ROC & RTHMOC)

Sensor Support

• Adds support for Open/Close sensors.
• Adds support for Oceasoft Triple-CO2 and Universal 4-20mA sensors.
• Fixed an issue where certain replaceable sensors briefly displayed invalid readings when first plugged into Touchscreen loggers.
• Calibration dates read from sensors are understood to be in local time for Chicago, IL (CST or CDT depending on the date), and are converted to UTC when stored internally.
• Calibration dates are transmitted to DicksonOne in UTC.
• Calibration dates are converted from UTC to the logger’s local time when displayed onscreen.
• Adds a delay in sensor reconnection logic

Networking

• Prevents network loops when NTP fails
• Adds support for alternate DNS addresses when using Ethernet connections.
• Adds support for Telit wifi modules.
• Fixed an issue where Touchscreen loggers would not request new registration codes from DicksonOne after an initial code had expired.
• Fixed an issue where Touchscreen loggers would become stuck sending DNS queries for up to 20 minutes during data catch-up periods.
• Include blank SSID when communicating on Ethernet

DicksonOne Communication

• Adds support for updated DicksonOne API interface. Removes TLS certificates from the old DicksonOne API interface.
• Eliminates insecure HTTP-only communication with DicksonOne. All communication is now encrypted using TLS 1.2.

Bugs

• Fixed issue where data was not stored or sent after swapping sensor ports
• Fixed issue where PT100 OceaSoft Smart sensor readings were not displayed
• Fixed issue where universal sensor mapping was not applied to the logger
• Corrected pod model reporting for OceaSoft sensors running FW 2.7.0+
• Fixed touchscreen reboot issue caused by Telit module losing MAC address
• Fixed incorrect PT100 temperature readings below freezing
• Fixed Telit module legacy AT-command mode MAC address issue
• Fixed layout issue in text view with custom universal sensor units of measure
• Fixed sensor reconnection loop that created excessive sensor entries
• Fixed Wi-Fi connection/disconnection causing hard fault
• Updated current sensor API
• Improved hardware alarm accuracy by rounding configuration values to the nearest tenth
• Improved sensor retry logic to match DWE2 updates
• Verified and standardized universal sensor resolution and digit display

Features and Enhancements

• Added support for multi-server configurations
• Added support for OceaSoft Differential Pressure sensor
• Added ability to check backup battery health
• Added support for OceaSoft CO2 Triple sensor
• Added Heat Index virtual channel

• Added Heat-Index virtual channel
• Optimized Open-Close sensor power consumption on battery
• Added support for OceaSoft Differential Pressure Sensor in Pascals

Bugs

• Revises sampling logic to improve reliability
• Adds sensor communication debug information to ping packets

Bugs

• Resolved an issue where DWE2 received an invalid MAC during the initial ethernet connection.
• Resolved a bug where logger lost serial number and token during operation.
• Resolved a bug where logger lost MAC address after power cycling.
• Resolved an issue where incorrect sensor model and serial number were sent after swapping to a single-channel sensor.
• Resolved an issue where audible alerts were not triggering due to configuration packet value rounding.
• Optimized battery backup power consumption.

Bugs

• Implemented a 10-minute delay between disconnecting a sensor and sending an empty sensor packet to DicksonOne.
