Important information

Note for CSV drivers with SFTP functionality
The current versions V6_00_00 and V5_01_10 currently no longer enable SFTP upload via the outdated "diffie-hellman-group14-sha1" encryption method for the CSV driver.


Note for BACnet gateways with 32 MB RAM and BACnet/SC
For gateways with 32 MB RAM that are operated with BACnet and more than 1,000 data points, an update from version 4 (without BACnet/SC) to a newer version with BACnet/SC is not possible.

Gateways with 64 MB RAM are not affected by this and also reliably support up to 2,500 data points in the current version.


Note for PROFINET users when changing versions
When updating our gateways from version 4_xx_xx to the current version V5_01_09 (or V6_00_00 for 64MB UGWs), we would like to point out that a new GSD file is required to integrate the PROFINET driver (applies to Double-X PROFINET and Tripple-X with PROFINET).

When updating from V4 to V5, the PLC requires an updated GSD file, which you can download here. If you are unable to use the TIA Portal yourself, for example, we recommend that you contact our support team directly. We are here to help you and make sure your update goes smoothly.

starting with software version V4


⚠️ Important note regarding SSH authentication

Login via username and password for SSH access has been disabled for security reasons.

After that , access will only be possible via public-key authentication.

Please note:
If you are currently still using a username and password and have not set up a public key, SSH access will no longer be possible after the update.

Setting up public-key authentication, e.g., with PuTTY


New Features

Stento

  • A new data point ("eventreport") has been added to the Stento driver.

BACnet

  • When reading BACnet data points, the associated status information is also available.

SAP Driver

  • The default settings for the SAP driver have been preconfigured so that users can easily customize them to suit their needs.

System

  • IP and MAC addresses are available as additional system data points.

Bug fixes

Romutec FBM-DI-4-DO-4R

  • When using the Romutec FBM-DI-4-DO-4R module, addresses are reliably assigned only once. Duplicate assignments are prevented.

MQTT

  • When publishing MQTT messages, strings of any length can be transmitted. Previously, if a string exceeded a certain length, it was truncated during transmission without an error message.

Detectomat

  • A problem has been fixed that caused Detectomat commands to fail to trigger correctly under certain conditions.

DALI

  • The detection of unreachable DALI devices has been corrected. The corresponding error status is now reliably set again, and unnecessary queries on the DALI bus are avoided.

OPC UA

  • OPC UA values marked as invalid are reliably detected and are no longer processed as valid values.

BACnet

  • When scanning BACnet devices, processing certain values (prescale values) could cause the driver to crash. The processing of these values has been corrected, so the scan can now be performed reliably.

DALI

  • If a communication error occurs on a DALI channel, the affected individual devices are also marked as faulty.

MQTT

  • The MQTT driver can reliably process even large SSL/TLS-encrypted messages.

Improved Network Communication

  • The behavior regarding network access between different LAN interfaces on the device has been corrected. On devices with multiple Ethernet interfaces (either built-in or via an expansion card), routing no longer occurs between them.

Security and System Updates

HTTP Security Mechanisms Improved

  • Several HTTP security headers have been introduced that make it possible to enable protective measures within the browser, thereby helping to defend against the most common client-side attacks.

  • The following headers have been introduced:

  • "X-XSS-Protection" → "1; mode=block"

  • "Referrer-Policy" → "no-referrer"

  • "X-Frame-Options" → "SAMEORIGIN"

  • "Cross-Origin Resource Policy" → "same-origin"

  • "Cross-Origin Opener Policy" → "same-origin"

Improved Protection of Sensitive Device Information

  • Access to the device information has been secured so that the information in the "Gateway Version" and "Operating System Version" fields cannot be read without the appropriate authorization.

Access Protection Optimized for Network Diagnostics

  • The network diagnostic functions have been equipped with improved access controls. Among other changes, the Ping and Traceroute endpoints have been removed.

Storing Passwords

  • The storage of user passwords has been improved using a more secure method.

File Download

  • File downloads have been further secured. Access to system files and sensitive configuration files is reliably prevented.

Optimizing Cookie Security

  • Several security-related cookie settings have been optimized to enhance the protection of web sessions.

Improved Protection of Confidential OPC UA Configuration Data

  • The processing and display of sensitive login credentials used to connect to the OPC UA server have been secured.
