Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

[2.11] - 2026-08-17

Added

• smartDrive:
  • New plugin for the owasys smartDrive hardware: 4 analog inputs (ain_channels, configurable sampling rate, scale/offset, measurement range and data reduction), supply voltage and internal temperature monitoring, status LEDs and a periodic internet connectivity check (pingUrl, HTTP HEAD every 60 s).
  • RPC calls getStatus, getInternalTemperature and getSupplyVoltage.
• Siexpert (PREVIEW):
  • New plugin for reading Siemens expert files from Vectron locomotives.
• smartCORE:
  • Module entries in smartcore.json and smartcore_dynamic.json accept a new optional key "configFile" (a single file name or an array of them). The referenced files are loaded from the configuration search path and merged in order — arrays are concatenated, objects merged recursively — with the inline "config" block always taking precedence. This allows shared configuration fragments to be maintained once and reused across modules and devices. Missing or unreadable files are skipped with a warning; the measurement still starts.
• TRDP:
  • New property trafficFilter: a list of port / groupAddress pairs, so one module instance can receive several multicast groups and ports.
  • New property joinGroup (per filter entry, default false): actively joins the multicast group via IGMP on the configured network interface instead of only filtering traffic that arrives anyway.
  • New property pollingIntervalMs (default 1000, range 100…2000).
• Batmon:
  • New property configurationErrorChannelName. The channel reports why a parameter set was rejected, e.g. VoltageAlwaysOnTooHigh (-3), WrongShutdownTime (2), OK (0).
• Mav:
  • Country check: while the new optional boolean channel channelnameCountryCheck is true, data is only sent to the MÁV server when the country read from channelnameCurrentCountryCode (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2) matches the new targetCountryCode setting, compared case-insensitively. targetCountryCode defaults to HU; an unknown or empty country suppresses sending. With the channel absent or false — the default — data is sent regardless of the country, so existing configurations behave unchanged.
  • New property channelnameCustomerID: an optional optiCloud shared attribute that replaces the configured sender at runtime and is transmitted as the SOAP Sender attribute.
  • New property channelnameHDOP: float input channel whose filtered value gates the locomotive start/stop event detection and is published as MAV.HdopFilt.
  • New property timezone (IANA time zone id, default Europe/Budapest) used to format the GPSTime field sent to the MÁV server.
  • New status value NO_SENDER (-6) on MAV.Status; the six existing values keep their numbers. All status values are now documented in the module description.
• Math:
  • derive() function to calculate a filtered derivation d/dt of an equidistant input signal
  • #timezone - macro to enable automatic daylight savings in related functions, e.g.
    • decodeTime(..., {useTZ: <bool>})
    • timer(..., {useTZ: <bool>}) includes Howard Hinnant date library
  • memory() provides indexed storage of a given size; the data type is taken from the initialiser, with modes M=, M+= and M*=.
  • sScan(fmt, s) extracts values from a string using scanf-style format placeholders.
  • sGetKV(s, k [, {format, filter}]) finds a key-value pair in a text; supported formats are json, ini, xml_attr and xml_node. An optional index selects the n-th match.

Changed

• Math:
  • Catalog Version 13
  • timer() now emits all pulses that fall into one evaluation interval instead of only the first one, and crontab entries are resolved with sub-second accuracy. Previously, timers could skip pulses at high tick rates.
  • transit() / state machines: nested nMax loops that share a target state now count independently. The inner counter is reset when the outer loop re-enters the loop's start state.
• Batmon:
  • The default name of the operating mode channel changed from batmon__Operating_Mode to batmon__PluginState. Installations that address the channel by name must either adapt or pin the old name via operatingModeChannelName.
  • The operating mode channel now reports the full plugin state machine (0…15, e.g. GetParameter (6), Running (9), PostponeShutDown (14)) instead of the previous four coarse states.
  • The shutdown event and energy-save request channels are now fully described in the module documentation. requestEnergySave is a latching flag: it is set once energy saving has been requested since module start and is only cleared by a module restart — it does not indicate current energy-saving activity.
• Mav:
  • Three default values that did not match the module's behaviour were corrected.
  • Changes on the optional channels (LocoNr, CustomerID, CountryCheck, CurrentCountryCode) are reported at info level instead of only under debugLog, and only when the value actually changes.
• Dbc:
  • The property separateEFFlag has been removed. Distinguishing 11-bit and 29-bit addressing is configured in the canbus module via keepEFFFlag (introduced in 2.10.1).
• TRDP:
  • port is now validated against the range 0…65535 instead of being accepted unchecked.
• GRPC:
  • Adapted to the gRPC 1.80.0 API, as shipped with Yocto Wrynose.
• Third-party libraries:
  • valijson 1.1.0 → 1.1.3, used to validate the module configuration against its schema.
  • Howard Hinnant date library v3.0.4 newly included; it provides the time zone handling behind the math #timezone macro.

Removed

• Microstrain (PREVIEW): the module has been removed.

Fixed

• Math
  • playback() provides defaults to channels if not active
  • #warn timeout had lots of false positives if first sample was a larger trusted interval
  • safety and stability fixes
  • A leading unary sign was applied to the base of a power expression instead of to its result: -2^2 returned 4 instead of -4. The usual mathematical convention now applies (-2^2 = -(2^2)). Formulas that relied on the old behaviour need explicit brackets. All other operators are unaffected; ~ and ! keep their higher precedence.
  • The string function sRight() was registered under the misspelled name sRigth() and could therefore not be called by its documented name. Formulas using the misspelling must be adapted.
  • playback() no longer inserts trusted samples at the batch interval once replay data has been added.
  • prioEnc() in edge mode returned a garbage value instead of the configured "none" value when no edge was present, and returned the "none" value instead of index 0 for an edge on the first input.
  • sResource({$ref: '...'}) did not resolve its resource reference at compile time and failed at runtime.
  • makeDim() did not store the equidistant sampling interval.
  • The operator ; leaked memory when a variable was neither used nor published.
  • Deeply nested expressions could crash the module; expression depth is now limited to 128 levels and reported as a syntax error.
  • Parser error messages name the expected bracket correctly (missing ']' instead of unbalanced opening ']').
• smartCORE:
  • The first read of a channel could deliver a phantom sample carrying timestamp 0 and value 0 ahead of the first real measurement value. Modules reading channels received it through the normal sample iteration.
• Batmon:
  • Temperatures below 0 °C were interpreted as unsigned and reported as large positive values.
  • The wake-up event channel reported wrong values. The correct assignment is none (0), KL15 switch-on edge (1), U_batt below Always-OFF threshold (2), U_batt above Always-ON threshold (3), periodic timer wakeup in energy-saving mode (4), deprecated (5), wakeup after CAN-requested sleep (6). Evaluations of this channel must be checked against the corrected assignment.
• Mav:
  • An empty Sender was transmitted when neither the sender setting nor the CustomerID channel supplied a value; the MÁV server rejects such requests. The case is now detected and reported as NO_SENDER (-6).
  • An empty value on the CustomerID shared attribute overwrote a correctly configured sender, and kept it overwritten until a non-empty value arrived. An optiCloud outage could therefore silence a vehicle whose local configuration was valid. Empty values are now discarded with a warning.
  • The HDOP consumer was not released when the module stopped. The stale handle survived a stop/start cycle, after which the module no longer consumed from that channel.
• Dbc:
  • If a multiplexed signal had no multiplexer, the remaining signals of the same message were silently dropped and their channels never appeared.
• Diagnostics:
  • Error messages without a matching source no longer flood the log.
  • The configured default error code was not evaluated.

[2.10.1] - 2026-05-12

Added

• Tx93 Support
• Diagnostics:
  • Monitoring for <string> patterns
• Math:
  • rampLimit(), which limits the steepness of a signal curve to a maximum gradient.
  • encoder(), which emits a sequence of pulses as an encoder would do for given rotational speed
• Fmproducer:
  • Imagetypes ANTIVALENT and ANTIVALENT2 as alias for a 2-bit unsigned integer.
• Airpurifier:
  • A customised module for monitoring and controlling air filter units
• Canbus:
  • The new property keepEFFFlag is used to pass the $2^{31}$-bit field (EFF) to the message ID in fmproducer as a signature for 29-bit addressing modes. This allows messages in the range 0..2047 to be distinguished by addressing type (11-bit or 29-bit) and assigned their own specific meaning and interpretation. All 29-bit addresses must then be shifted by the offset $2^{31} = 2147483648$ in fmproducer.

Changed

• Osfwriter
  • reenabled property "compressed", default is false Need to be set explicitly by customer in RAIL / BATMON applications.
• Diagnostics:
  • intensive code review process and reimplementation, documentation
  • No longer any distinction between ErrorStream and value monitoring
  • The monitoring type is independent of the data type of the monitored channel
• Math:
  • Catalog Version 12
  • #version macro allows to limit the available function catalog to a former version.
• Rawplayback:
  • code review process and documentation
  • fmDispatcher receives the name of the module instance
• Fmproducer:
  • property "addressSpec": renamed enum label ReversedForMsbNumerics to EN61375_MVB
  • The EN61375_MVB schema rejects all configurations that do not comply with the EN/IEC standard, e.g. Little-Endian or the shifting of an image across a byte boundary.
• smartCORE:
  • A new API class ChannelConsumer has been introduced to read smartCORE channels in a type-neutral manner. This simplifies and speeds up plugin development.
• Opticloud:
  • The ignore list is always expanded to include the patterns "status.*" and "hidden.*", unless these are explicitly specified in the search pattern.
  • GPS splitting by default (if not listed in "splitGpsLocationChannels"): remove suffix ".Location" (if exists), append ".Latitude", ".Longitude", ".Altitude"
• Batmon:
  • Internally disable AlwaysOn/Off config if less than 15.0 V

Fixed

• Diagnostics:
  • Malfunction depending on different data types
  • A strictly limited timeout for snapshot and monitored channels, ensuring that messages can be sent promptly
• Fmproducer:
  • Corrected incorrect offset calculation for 2- and 4-bit images in the ?MVB? compatibility scheme, e.g. ANTIVALENT2 or ENUM4
• Canbus:
  • The $2^{31}$-bit (EFF) used as a signature for 29-bit addressing modes was always passed on to the message ID in fmproducer. As a result, 29-bit messages were not recognised or processed. Now, by default, only the address itself is used, without any status flags.
• Opticloud:
  • Disabled GPS data transfer as Json-Object (as used in alarm snapshots), not yet supported by opticloud,
  • GPS channels are no longer silently removed if they are not listed in "splitGpsLocationChannels", thereby resolving the unusual behaviour caused by empty "splitGpsLocationChannels" array
• Batmon:
  • Unassigned alwaysOn/Off limits resulted in incorrect default values and a permanent breach of the spacing rule.
  • Send control commands only shortly after measured data has been received to avoid collisions in ATMELs command processing queue
  • PIC FW Workaround (2C-bug) for time and voltage parameters.
  • Reading parameter set a 2nd time was skipped due to automatic time stamps on parameter data. Command get parameter now repeated up to 3 times on failure, too.
• Math:
  • bTest() did not pick the designated bit correctly.
  • periodic(..., {mode: prbs}) ignored p## notation to select the feedback polynom
  • playback() fixed handling of second parameter as vector
  • `playback

[2.10.0] - 2026-03-10

Added

  • Uses fmproducer to decode the content of data telegrams
• Mav:
  • New plugin for GPS reporting to Hungarian State Railways Magyar Államvasutak
• Math: implements Catalog V11
  • status of input channels is signaled to math and readable using isTimeout(), isEmpty(), isConnected(), isDefault()

Changed

• Support for Debian version 13 / Trixie
• valijson: update to version 1.1.0
• fmProducer:
  • Major rework of the internal "SimpleBufferPicker" class which is used to pick values out of process image for flexibility, performance and stability (see also section Fixed below)
  • FastMessageDispatcher: major reworkfor performance and stability
  • Support for "double" and "BCD" image types
  • bitlength: 1 enforces <bool> as image and channel datatype

• Math
  • Catalog Version and Libraries git-ID is now published into omVersions.ini.

Fixed

• alarmmanager:
  • Integrity error in the internal list of alarm messages, responsible for ghost messages and incomplete processing -> resolved, continue to monitor
  • Missing lifetime control of internal list of alarm messages -> resolved
• fmProducer:
  • picking of Timebase48, Time64, BiPolar, UniPolar types optimized for performance and fixed buggy scaling
  • picking of String/ByteArray did not respect the configured bitoffset.
• Math:
  • Produced samples that where not given by libmathexpressions -> fixed
  • Unlinked input channel was orphaned and not handled -> assign const default
  • Created time series channels with zero length -> fixed
  • Picking variable indexed element from a const vector cVal[idx] or GetCol(cVal, idx) was const, too, and never updated -> fixed.
  • decodeTime(): returned with failure on success -> fixed.
  • timer(): had 0 as default for month/day filters, now 1
  • timer(): syntax a-b/n did not start at a and did not check for range at first
  • timer(): syntax */n did not start at 1 for month/day
  • assign =: forwards const and linInterpolation flags

  • Historic data eventually had time stamps in the future, now filtered out
  • Transferring parameter sets to the BATMON no longer causes the device to be lost due to an internal invalidated parameter set. This is a workaround for smartIO BATMON FW older than 2.1.
  • Alarm snapshots now contain the correct channel names, identical to those in smartCore
• Ruuvi:
  • fixed wrong datatype in schema
• GPS:
  • Losing timebase when receiving and producing gps data.
  • Produced NAN-Values in HDOP, VDOP, PDOP channels -> filtered now.

• opticloud:
  • Handling of multiple matches in channels selection -> first one wins, others ignored
  • Handling of wild-mask-syntax in channel name patterns -> fixed
  • Handling of (automatic) Ignore-List, if system oder hidden channels are explicitly selected in the search pattern.
