What is new in version 1.4.2.0: 

  • TCP/IP communication: it is now possible to communicate with AE33 via the Ethernet port. The commands include full control of the AE33 as well as retrieval of all instrument data and diagnostics.
  • Data storage: all instrument data is stored in a Compact SQL database. The data files from previous versions are still available. It is advisable not to store more than 2 years of data on the instrument.
  • Extended status: the instrument status now includes also status about setup file, writing to disk and database size.
  • NTP support: instrument time can be set using the Network Time Protocol thus insuring the instrument has always the correct time.
