Issues: Must Corrects / Checks

  • Resolve Tom Morris editing issues - acts like no thermocouple extremes are set before parsing profile
  • Alarm-Messages
  • Wait state messaging: when starting wait | when wait complete


  • No log trace shown when number of samples in the logfile is small.
  • Chart shows log trace of previous large data set when new log file is reset and has nothing in it - when software rebooted -> shows nothing => update missing!
  • display of Number of log file points on chart does refresh when the chart is repainted
  • Channel message filter - option to display only messages for the particular channel and IO timer above
  • Allow global setting of email alert addresses from MultiTraj menus
  • Highlight row executing on profile chart display on trajectory form
  • Lock out AutoStart settings of ganged channels once first channel is gang is set. - to prevent setting up the gang start more than once.
  • Add "time bomb" security measure - in control loop: conditional KeyCheck based on outcome of low probability random number generator - should have mean time between checks = 1 month.
  • Mask channel error messages selection
  • previous log file can not be deleted when software is open/running. Appears file not closed somewhere.
  • reset log file / time does not put new stuff up on plot
  • too many files open error = #67 - see error 424
  • error = 424 - object required - in logging part of control loop - see error #67 above
  • "w" action is reset by setting equal start and stop times
  • Add close after click code in mnu routines - otherwise the user has to consciously close
  • Set XXXX menu title = invisible | also its drop down menu - leave in for later expansion if needed.
  • Computer temperature readouts do not match controller. They are 1 I/O cycle behind the controller.



  • Communication error should be flagged if communications goes down - does not do this right now
  • Error handling in new routines
  • Verify user prompt erasers at above a certain length of text - prevent overflow errors!
  • Verify logfile operations use LONG integers. Will run out of room if is only 16 bit ints
  • Make sure all routines use variable CONTROLLER ADDRESS instead of numeric constant

Issues: Can be delayed

  • Logfile Rendering becomes low quality >4000 logfile points
  • Implement condition rerendering of chart - cut down processing time for larger renders - example 1000 point render
  • route channel prompts of ganged messages to all gang channel prompts
  • Temperature bumping - so temperature can be actively bumped up under the Trajectory form


Issues: Future Features

  • Profile Download to controller
  • WebCam - to allow photo being taken of art object setup in oven. - allow for autodocumenting in a database library online!
  • Need some sort of extensible interface that can input / output messages. Allow users to write their own code to do custom functions and fit this project into other control projects as a subpiece.
  • Command-Column-Implementation function for auxillary I/O - example flipper valve fan cooling


Issues:Global

Resolved Issues



Resolved with need of more verification testing

  • need more characters in command column - perhaps is easier to increase field size in all columns?
  • checksum should be reconned from end of file not from the beginning: thus changing field size in future will not induce checksum routine changes in future | or put in the header ?
