Remote Terminal Viewer Release NotesSY-1101212, Version K Chapter 3: Known Problems and Limitations

Chapter 3: Known Problems and Limitations

At the time of release, there are no outstanding priority 1 (top priority) defects
detected. However, some limitations are known to exist for the SCD6000, SCD5200,
and RTU50 SVX modules with the SY-1101212_K release of the Remote Terminal
Viewer:
• Response from the RTV GUI when navigating to individual information objects of
IEC104 Slave is directly proportional to the configured number of points.
• The RTU does not report the correct error code and the detected error message
(CR FW#104) in these cases:
◦ If you disable flash memory and download a file
◦ If you format the flash file system
• Downloading large files through OptoNet may not be successful due to delays in
accessing the flash file system in the RTU.
Upgrade the OptoNet card or the COPE/P3E CPU card to the latest hardware
revision and/or upgrade the RTU Software to SY-1101155_P or later to resolve
this.
• RTU connections are not saved in the connection.dat file for non-admin users.
• When more than 20 SCD5200s with SCFs are connected in an OptoNet network,
the RTU nodes are intermittently not displayed on RTV (CAR#47188479).
• When multiple SCD6000 RTUs or a combination of SCD6000 and SCD5200
RTUs with SCFs are connected in an OptoNet network, the RTU nodes are
intermittently not displayed on RTV.

Open CARs for this Release

Some problems are known to exist for the SCD6000, SCD5200, and RTU50 SVX
modules with the SY-1101212_K release of the Remote Terminal Viewer. The

Chapter 5: Validation and Verification Remote Terminal Viewer Release NotesSY-1101212, Version K

Chapter 5: Validation and Verification

The RTV software, SY-1101212_K, was thoroughly verified and validated before the
release. The verification and validation strategy for this release consists of:
• Change Design and Code Reviews
Peer developers documented and reviewed the design and the source code of all
the baseline changes before integrating it with the system.
• Incident Retest
An independent team prepared and documented test cases for each of the
incidents addressed in this release. This retest helped to confirm that the incident
was fixed satisfactorily without any side effects due to the modification.
• Windows Compatibility Test
The RTV software (version SY-1101212_K) was tested on Windows Windows 10
(64-bit), and Windows Server 2016 (64-bit) Operating Systems.
However, there may be undetected defects that arise in project usage patterns.
