OmniServer News and Announcements
December 19, 2011 - Release of Minor Version 2.7-022
IMPORTANT!!! OmniServer V2.7 Build 22 specifically addresses a rare licensing algorithm glitch that less than 1% of customers should experience that prevents OmniServer from being licensed initially. Do NOT download and install Build 22 if you already have OmniServer V2.7-020 or earlier installed AND licensed. Doing so will invalidate your license and you will need to submit a re-registration request.
Anyone downloading and installing on an unlicensed machine should proceed with the new build.
June 6, 2011 - OmniServer V2.7 is OPC DA 2.05 Certified
Software Toolbox is pleased to announce that OmniServer V2.7 has now been OPC Certified for the OPC DA 2.05 specification by the OPC Foundation. OPC Certification ensures the highest level of compatibility with your OPC DA 2.05 Client application. Click here to view the OmniServer OPC Certificate!
November 22, 2010 - Release of Minor Version 2.7-020
Minor revision addresses an issue discovered with password protected OmniServer protocols being used with multiple topics. The issue prevents protocol access for additional topics using the same protocol beyond the initial topic that is configured.
September 16, 2010 - Release of Major Version 2.7-019
Software Toolbox is pleased to announce the release of OmniServer V2.7. This version adds support for the new OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) specification from the OPC Foundation. OPC UA provides a secure, reliable client connectivity architecture for both local and remote data acquisition. OPC UA provides remote connectivity without the use of Microsoft's DCOM transport technology.
