3. New features
3.1. Studio
3.1.1. Multi Edit Tags and Alarms
It is possible to select multiple elements and change their common properties to do so, select
multiple tags or alarms, right click and select Modify.

Properties that can be changed:
Tag: group, sample, tag type, record, start-up value, lock, alarm, multi-state, SoftPLC
(without name and address);
Alarm: All properties except alarm condition and alarm description.

The properties that cannot be changed are locked (disable).
The properties that have been changed are highlighted in yellow.
3.1.2. Image Shortcuts
In Image editing mode, the following shortcuts are added:
Ctrl+E Display the selected item(s) Properties.
Ctrl+PageUp Bring to Foreground the selected item(s).
Ctrl+PageDown Send to Background the selected item(s).
F11 Toggle display of toolboxes (hide the toolboxes currently displayed / restore the hidden
toolboxes).
F12 Toggle full-window mode (remove all the toolbars, status bar, and border / restore the
hidden bars and border).
Shift+<Arrow> Move the selected item(s) in the direction given by the <Arrow>. <Arrow> can
be one of the following keys: Left, Right, Up or Down.
Ctrl+Shift+<Arrow> Same as Shift+<Arrow>, but 'faster' (step of moving is higher).

All these new shortcuts are enabled by default. They can be disabled by adding the following line in
apptune.dat:
DISABLE_SHORTCUTS=YES
Note: adding this option will disable only these new shortcuts. The shortcuts from former releases
will remain active.
3.1.3. PNG support
PNG Image file format is now supported for the images. It can be used in both Web and Studio
images.
Please note that when PNG images are used in web, they will use the alpha transparency channel
contained in the image itself, whereas in the studio background transparency has to be defined.







ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 5
3.1.4. Image Animation Format
It is possible to create an animation based on a .zip package containing several png pictures.
When importing the ILS file, it will rely on the existing OBJECT SGF type. A .zip package will be
referenced. The .zip package will be standard zip with no password. ZIP Package will contain flat files
with no hierarchy. The PNG files must have the same size in width/height.
The transparency color (R,G,B) will apply to all images in the package, so they must be created that
way. One file will be used for configuration, config.xml.

ILS Example:
OBJECTS:
OBJECT SGF 1 {
TRANSPARENT COLOR = (255,255,255) LAYER="BASE" [ <5120,-19968> <22759,3561> ]
".\ventilation_on.zip|mytagName_canBeOptional "
}

Config.xml example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Animation>
<Default timer="500">
<Image filename=001.png/>
<Image filename=002.png/>
<Image filename=003.png/>
</Default>
<Interval start="10" end="19" timer="500">
<Image filename=004.png/>
<Image filename=005.png/>
<Image filename=006.png/>
<Image filename=007.png/>
</Interval>
<Interval start="20" end="49" timer="300">
<Image filename=004.png/>
<Image filename=005.png/>
</Interval>
<Interval start="50" end="100" timer="100">
<Image filename=004.png/>
<Image filename=007.png/>
</Interval>
</Animation>
3.1.5. Remote Desktop
Dongle can be used with Remote Desktop. User can use the RUS tool and start ControlMaestro
while working through RDP connection.

ControlMaestro 2013 Technical notes
3.1.6. Online Logged User
In a Web project, it is possible to display the local logged-in user. The tag SYS_OPERATOR is used to
display the user name online when the internet browser is being used, and it works per session.
3.1.7. Errors Files
Errors files management has been improved:
A new folder "\Logs" is created in the project and will contains per sessions logs file in compressed
format (zip). At application start-up, errors.dat file from previous session is zipped and moved to the
Logs folder. The file is renamed as errors_YYYY-MM-DD_hh-mm-ss.zip with date and time of the
zipping action.
Errors parameters are now applied to the \Logs folder:
Size of files in Logs folder exceed the Maximum Historical Size, the oldest files are deleted.
Number of files in Logs folder exceed the Maximum Session Count, the oldest files are
deleted.
3.2. LDAP
LDAP import from Active Directory has been improved:
User interface enhancements for synchronization:
- Possibility to filter users and groups list for easier selection.
Performance improvements for synchronization:
- Using SSL connection for security and paginated mode to retrieve users in order to
handle big directories efficiently.
Use of password expiration from LDAP:
- Password validity is using expiration date from LDAP server. If server is offline, a
grace period can be set to allow offline login.
3.2.1. Online connection
When an operator or an application developer successfully authenticates in ControlMaestro with his
LDAP identity, he will be prompted to change his password if it has expired. Until the user enters a
correct new password, he will not be able to authenticate himself.
When an operator or an application developer successfully authenticates in ControlMaestro with his
LDAP identity, if his password reached its expiration date notification, the user will
be notified and be offered to change his password.
From now on, once a user is authenticated, his LDAP user name and password will be cached in
ControlMaestro. For security reasons, the password is encrypted using MD5. These data is valid for a
fixed limit of time.
3.2.2. Offline connection
An operator or an application developer will be able to authenticate in ControlMaestro when the
LDAP is not reachable. This feature requires two conditions:
The user must have authenticated himself in online mode in a previous session in order to have his
identity cached in ControlMaestro.
The cached data needs to still be valid: it expires when the expiration date has passed.
The offline connection status will be notified to the current user by displaying a warning dialog box.






ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 7
Note: the reason why the Windows AD server is not reachable will not be displayed to the user.
3.2.3. New user management parameters
In user management properties, a new group box LDAP bidirectional connection management is
added. Inside this group box, two new fields are created:
Cached data is valid for [10..30]: days
Password expiration reminder [3..14]: days


3.2.4. Changing LDAP password from ControlMaestro
An operator will be able to change his LDAP account password inside ControlMaestro in runtime
mode only (not available from the studio), using the new fast action: ChangeLdapPassword. This
feature will be available both in studio image and web application.









ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 8
ControlMaestro 2013 Technical notes
This fast action can be called in two different configurations:
Change current user password: user name field is disabled.
Change user password: user name is enabled, allowing any LDAP user to change his
password.

ChangeLdapPassword will inform the user of the following events by displaying a warning dialog box:
Unknown user or incorrect old password.
New password and confirm password do not match.
Password cannot be changed, cached password is not valid: this might happen if the user did
change his LDAP password on a different station whereas he was authenticated in
ControlMaestro.

Note: No other error message will be displayed.
Important: Modifying user password requires the Windows AD to support TLS in 128 bits on port
636.







ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 9
3.2.5. Password expiration notification
Notification of current user password expiration will be processed in a system alarm object. The
alarm will be raised when ControlMaestro detects that the current user password has expired. The
expiration date notification will be displayed on login in online mode only.

A new tab is added for LDAP password expiration.


Password expiration notification.

ControlMaestro 2013 Technical notes
3.3. HTML template
The HTML template has been redesigned to allow users to use their own report template and
perfect the printed version.

It is now possible to add some HTML types which can be defined as header, footer and approval.
Three directories: Header, Footer and Approval files are found in the product installation
HTML template folder.

These files can be chosen when generating a new HTML Template.


It is now possible to choose between the following modes:
Default: as previously, the configuration from the event summary is used.
Start: a new summary is added with the filters saved in the event summary properties, but
all alarms started in the date range are defined during generation.
End: a new summary is added with the filters saved in the event summary properties, but all
alarms ended in the date range are defined during generation.
Ack: a new summary is added with the filters saved in the event summary properties, but all
alarms acknowledged in the date range are defined during generation.

Note:
When printing an event summary which displays comments: a new row containing the full comment
is added below the alarm.







ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 11
3.4. Alarms
3.4.1. Alarms in SQL
Alarms history can now be archived in SQL Database. SQL History format is applied for Tags and
Alarms at the same time.
Note project on migration:
At start-up, if the project was using SQL for Tags history, then Alarms history will also use SQL. By
default the DSN will be the same as the one used for Tags.
3.4.2. Remote SQL
ControlMaestro can now relies on distant SQL Server Databases.
In order to allow multiple applications to connect to the same remote server and to avoid any
overwriting of databases, a prefix must be added to the database name for each application.
Note:
When a remote server is used to store the databases, it is not allowed to attach and detach them.
Before launching the application, the databases must be created or attached manually on the distant
server. Naming convention: prefix_VfiTag and prefix_VfiAlarm.
3.4.3. Station Properties VFI
When SQL format is selected, it is no longer allowed to use back other formats. Therefore, all
controls related to Other Formats are disabled.







ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 12
ControlMaestro 2013 Technical notes
3.4.4. SQL Server setup
The SQL Server Setup dialog box is now used to configure Tags or Alarms connections for both local
and remote SQL Servers.



In that example, the databases will be named MASTER1_VfiTag or MASTER1_VfiAlarm.
3.4.5. SQL Management Tools
As for Tags, actions available for Alarms management are: backup/restore/import.







ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 13
3.4.6. Alarms Acknowledgment
Two options, Force Comment and Force Sign In are added to the alarms definition, in order to
force the user to sign in and/or to enter a comment to the alarm when acknowledging.



When acknowledging, the Force Sign in dialog box asks the user to confirm its password, when at
least one of the selected alarms has the option Force Sign In activated.



When acknowledging, the Force Comment Dialog Box asks the user to enter a comment when at
least one of the selected alarms has the option Force Comment activated.

ControlMaestro 2013 Technical notes
3.4.7. Alarms Inhibition with Time Out
After a defined timeout, in millisecond, a tag will not inhibit an alarm anymore even if the condition
is still valid.



The maximum value is 4294967295 milliseconds (about 49 days).
3.4.8. System Alarms
The System Alarms configuration has been improved, all system alarms tabs are grouped into one
tab System Alarms.



3.4.8.1. Central UM Connection Loss System Alarm
When the application loose the connection to the central UM database, a system alarm "Connection
to the User Management central database has been lost" is raised.






ControlMaestro 2013 Release notes v01A 26/06/2013 Page 15
3.4.8.2. Hardware Protection Loss System Alarm
When the application loses its hardware Protection dongle, a system alarm "License hardware key
could not be found!" is raised.
3.5. Audit Trail
3.5.1. Alarm Management actions
The category Alarm Management Actions is added to the audit trail, with 4 actions:
Acknowledge alarm from Image, Event Summary or Auto acknowledgement:
