Resolution

Vijeo Designer update V6.2.6.1008, otherwise known as SoMachine v4.3 Vijeo 6.2.6.1 Update is a Service Pack for Vijeo Designer v6.2 that comes integrated into SoMachine v4.3.
This addon will is delivered as a ".exe" file and can be installed on top of SoMachine V4.3 and can be obtained with the Schneider Electric Software Update tool which comes pre-installed with Schneider Electric products.

NOTE: If you choose to install Vijeo Designer v6.2 SP7 or SP8 (SP8 is the maximum version allowed on top of SoMachine v4.3), install this SoMachine v4.3 Vijeo 6.2.6.1 Update first. This will ensure that the set of iPC families (HMIPxx, HMIBMx) are also installed into SoMachine's Device repository in Logic Builder.

To launch the update tool, the shortcut can be found at this path:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Schneider Electric Software Update\
The shortcut is called "Schneider Electric Software Update"

Once it is launched, if you have SoMachine v4.3 installed, you will be able to see the Update:

In the Schneider Electric Software Update tool, this update will appears as "SoMachine v4.3 Vijeo 6.2.6.1 Update". When you download the update, it will be saved as filename "SoMachineV4.3_Vijeo_6.2.6.1008_18.05.03.01.exe".
Running the executable file will automatically launch the SoMachine Configuration Manager (SCM) to install this addon.

The installation of this addon requires Windows Administrator privileges to start.

Note: Former versions of Vijeo Designer will be uninstalled at first. Afterwards Vijeo Designer v6.2 SP6.1 will be installed.

Quality improvements
• Improve robustness of HMSCU by preventing USB event file corruption due to the power interruption (which could be provoked by backing-up Event Log groups).
• Improve robustness of HMSCU by preventing SRAM alarm file corruption due to power interruption (which could be provoked by backing-up Alarms)
• Improve robustness of HMISCU (runtime) when using function block READ_VAR (of library PLCCommunication) for Modbus communication (thus avoiding loss of read registers).
• Improve robustness of Vijeo-Designer by accepting also variables with specific or empty namespace attribute to be shared via SoMachine’s symbol configuration.
• Improve robustness on HMIS5T: the connection via Ethernet to a controller will be reestablished after a temporary disconnection.
• Allow to convert a HMI “with Control” into one without control within the Standalone version of Vijeo Designer.
This implies performing first an export from SoMachine into a Vijeo Designer vdz file, followed by the conversion within the “Standalone” version of Vijeo Designer, followed by the import of the new vdz file into SoMachine.
• Avoid the dialog “Security has been set up on the target machine” (prompting for an user and password) when downloading an application via Vijeo Designer (“Download Target”), in case security was not set-up.
