Set64rs-Software-Issues

Outstanding Issues

• memory management > when deleting profiles > sometimes a profile gets left in controller program memory

• DataBase cleanup > what happens if duplicates or incompletes get into table? > occasionally should execute and clean

• channel select needs wired up throughout the code

• error trapping code > will be needed soon for debug also > is freezing out 1/2 way through simple profile

• When program is restarted > controller memory modified segments are not restored.

In Process

• Full debug testing on RUN / PAUSE / RESTART / JUMPTO
  • JUMPTO button caption display changes when clicked > fix!

• Does RUN PROFILE keep database CONTROLLER CONFIGURATION up to date? > check!

Resolved Issues

• grey out profile run parameters /segment/segment time/set temp when RunMode=SV ...not valid then:RESOLVED: Ignore for now. Not crucial.

• Move Single Set Point function: CONTROLLER SETTINGS menu > RESOLUTION: moved to menu under MENU = CONTROLLER SETTINGS

• Scroll bar enabled view? > for low res displays? RESOLUTION: Scrollbar function not exposed for forms in VB6 > must use API > issue dismissed

• grid displays .................RESOLVED: expand buttons show all fields when clicked > buttons are visible in debug view
  • currently shows all fields
  • need 2 views > debug / normal > wire up menus
    • Display options:
      • Show all fields / show user fields
      • show buttons to allow wide view / narrow view

• form centering code: RESOLUTION > solution used did not work very well > sized and placed in upper right hand of form to minimize video resolution requirements

• size up for correct display > RESOLUTION: sized up for 1280 X 1024 screen size: works down to 1280 X 960

• get rid of automatic compiled profile load > use only the menu load method
  • PROFILE-UPLOAD errors out when set as StartUp form > CommPortNumber = 0 >
    • RESOLUTION:Add standalone code in form_load > leave code in PROFILE EDITOR for now.

• organize menus > too wide right now
  • MENU > READ PROGRAM CONTROL > unnecessary? > program run mode should be kept up to date by the software > DELETED

• needs to remember last profile that was being executed for purpose of easy restart
  • software does not store executing profile in database? > RESOLUTION:Store when profile is selected
  • needs to recall executing profile name and display in EXECUTING PROFILE field at startup > RESOLUTION: Recalled at start up in form_activated
