Warnings:

EnOcean has completed limited quality assurance (QA) testing of this update. Only use this update if you need any of the fixes addressed by this release.
When you access trend reports with many logged datapoint values, CMS web page updates may be slow. Close any trend reports to restore normal performance. (AP-11847)
The SmartServer includes a 32 GB SD card. You can run out of free space on the SD card if you create many backups or retain too much data in the data log, and performance will degrade if the storage for logged data exceeds 100 MB and will degrade significantly if the storage for logged data exceeds 400 MB. The SmartServer requires a minimum of 8 GB free space on the SD card for normal operation. For optimal performance, always keep 8 GB of free space on the SD card and keep logged data below 100 MB. The Datapoint Properties widget displays an estimate of how much SD card space will be required for logged data based on your data log configuration. You can use this value to manage the space required for data logs and keep the size below 100 MB for best performance. If required, you can free up space on the SD card by reducing the frequency and retention period for logged data and by deleting backups. To delete backups from the SD card, see Backing Up, Restoring, and Cloning the SmartServer.
The SmartServer 4.3 software will not run on SmartServer hardware with a dual core processor. You can determine which processor you have by reading the label on the bottom of the SmartServer. The serial number printed under the product name includes one letter. If the letter is F or later, you have a quad core processor. If the letter is A through E, you have a dual core processor that is not compatible with this release.
You can downgrade a SmartServer running SmartServer 4.3 to an earlier release if the earlier release is compatible with your SmartServer hardware. However, due to security improvements in SmartServer 4.3, to downgrade SmartServer 4.3 to SmartServer 3.6 or earlier you must run the prep_for_3.x.sh script before or after you re-image your SmartServer. See step 3 here for more information. (AP-11235)
In some cases, the CMS displays stale data after you make a change. If a datapoint value, context, preset, or other value is not displayed as you expect, refresh your browser window (Ctrl-F5 in many browsers). If you are using the CMS Datapoints widget, you can click the Refresh button in the upper right corner of the widget. (LUM-7145)
You cannot set the latitude and longitude for a SmartServer by typing new values in the Devices widget. To change the latitude and longitude for a SmartServer, you can either drag the SmartServer icon to a new location on the map in the Devices widget, or you can enter new values in the Planning widget. (AP-11085)
In some cases, connections with many destinations may fail to update all destinations. If you have any connections with many destinations, test them to verify all destinations are updated as expected. If you observe any failed updates, break up the connection into multiple connections with fewer destinations per connection. (AP-9259)
In some cases, the CMS Sequencing widget may get stuck with an Adding Flows to Workspace message. Restart the SmartServer to eliminate the message. (AP-11297)
In some cases, when you create a connection between two LON datapoints, the devices involved in the connection may be deprovisioned. You can recover by reprovisioning the devices after they become deprovisioned. (AP-8360)

Changes:

Use the SmartServer with large EnOcean networks with the new EnOcean Remote driver for the SmartServer. The EnOcean Remote driver for the SmartServer uses EnOcean’s IoT Connector (IoTC) to integrate with EnOcean devices communicating with EnOcean radios in Aruba and Cisco access points. This solution leverages the large building scalability offered by Aruba and Cisco access points and enables you to integrate the SmartServer with all the EnOcean devices that can be accessed by the access points in a building. (AP-12043)
Get support for more types of EnOcean devices with added support for EnOcean EDRPU, EMCS, ETHS, and STM550 devices. (AP-12108)
Get information on non-BACnet devices that are down when you access them from a BACnet workstation through the SmartServer BACnet Server. (AP-10558)
Use the SmartServer Pi software introduced in the 4.2 release with LON devices. Using SmartServer Pi software on your own Pi-compatible hardware you can now integrate with LON devices in addition to BACnet/IP, Modbus TCP, and Modbus RTU devices. (AP-12823)
The following problems have been fixed:
- Viewing large data logs in the CMS Datapoints widget sometimes failed. (AP-12807)
- Renewal of signed security certificates sometimes failed. (AP-12413)
- In some cases, the SmartServer event scheduler would quit working after a change into or out of daylight savings time. (AP-12592)
- The SmartServer sometimes deleted connections between SmartServer internal applications and LON edge devices on startup or restart. (AP-12511 and AP-12332)
- LON datapoints using user-defined datapoint types could not be selected when creating a schedule event in the Calendar widget. (AP-12287)
- In some cases, the SmartServer did not set the BACnet Current Command Priority property for a BACnet object after updating the Present Value and Priority for the object. (AP-12418)
- IAP updates to a BACnet datapoint without a specified priority used priority 16. They now use normal priority which in IAP is encoded as priority 17. (AP-12475)
- The SmartServer BACnet Router did not forward all qualifying BACnet messages. (AP-12417)
- The SmartServer BACnet Router sent valid reject messages to the incorrect destination. (AP-12416)
- When you enable BACnet on a SmartServer Pi, you will receive a new notification to open the required IP ports on your Pi. (AP-12963)
- BACnet routing has been enhanced to prevent looping errors in unusual configurations. (AP-12795)
- Performance and reliability of BACnet trend logs and schedules have been improved. (AP-11257 and AP-11258)
- Logging from Node-RED has been reduced to prevent informational events from filling the flash drive on the SmartServer. (AP-12964)
- In some cases, the SmartServer displayed an error message when you enabled Modbus RTU for one of the RS-485 ports. (AP-12081)

Warnings:

LON RNI may fail with this release. Use a different release if you required LON RNI. (AP-13627)
In some cases, importing a valid EnOcean or LoRaWAN Device Interface (XIF) definition may fail. Use a newer release if you need EnOcean or LoRaWAN support. (AP-13616)

```
sudo smartserverctl status lorawan
```
If the lorawan service shows failed, then continue with the next step.
Stop the lorawan service by entering the following command:
```
sudo smartserverctl stop lorawan
```
Start the lorawan service by entering the following command:
```
sudo smartserverctl start lorawan
```
Reboot the SmartServer by entering the following command:
```
sudo reboot
```

The SmartServer includes a 32 GB SD card. You can run out of free space on the SD card if you create many backups or retain too much data in the data log, and performance will degrade if the storage for logged data exceeds 100 MB and will degrade significantly if the storage for logged data exceeds 400 MB. The SmartServer requires a minimum of 8 GB free space on the SD card for normal operation. For optimal performance, always keep 8 GB of free space on the SD card and keep logged data below 100 MB.

If required, you can free up space on the SD card by reducing the frequency and retention period for logged data and by deleting backups. To delete backups from the SD card, see Backing Up, Restoring, and Cloning the SmartServer.
In some cases, if you use the CMS Datapoints widget to browse a data log file with more than 100 MB of logged data, you may see a “Something Went Wrong” error. This is due to a timeout that is calculated based on the Rows per Page value. If you see this error, change the Rows per Page value to a larger size such as 50. (AP-12807)
The SmartServer 4.2 software will not run on SmartServer hardware with a dual core processor. You can determine which processor you have by reading the label on the bottom of the SmartServer. The serial number printed under the product name includes one letter. If the letter is F or later, you have a quad core processor. If the letter is A through E, you have a dual core processor that is not compatible with this release.
You can downgrade a SmartServer running SmartServer 4.2 to an earlier release if the earlier release is compatible with your SmartServer hardware. However, due to security improvements in SmartServer 4.2, to downgrade to SmartServer 3.6 or earlier you must run the prep_for_3.x.sh script before or after you re-image your SmartServer.

In some cases, when you create a connection between two LON datapoints, the devices involved in the connection may be deprovisioned. You can recover by reprovisioning the devices after they become deprovisioned. (AP-8360)
You cannot delete a device that has any datapoints in a calendar event. To recover after deleting such a device, add back the device, delete its datapoints in any calendar events, and then delete the device again. (LUM-9443)
Updates to BACnet datapoints defined in the SmartServer BACnet Server occur at datapoint priority 16. This can prevent updates to the same datapoints from an internal SmartServer application using Normal priority. The workaround is to write the datapoints at priority 16 from any internal SmartServer applications. (AP-12475)

Warnings:

If you operate the 4.1 beta release at a sustained rate of 20 events per second (EPS) or higher, your SmartServer may reboot every week. This is one half of the 40 EPS sustained rate expected for production releases. To prevent reboots, keep the sustained EPS below 20 EPS. This is the reason 4.1 has been released only as a beta. If you require less than 20 EPS sustained performance, you can use the 4.1 release for production systems.
The SmartServer includes a 32 GB SD card. You can run out of free space on the SD card if you create many backups or retain too much data in the data log, and performance will degrade if the storage for logged data exceeds 100 MB and will degrade significantly if the storage for logged data exceeds 8 GB. The SmartServer requires a minimum of 8 GB free space on the SD card for normal operation. For optimal performance, always keep 8 GB of free space on the SD card and keep logged data below 100 MB. The Datapoint Properties widget displays an estimate of how much SD card space will be required for logged data based on your data log configuration. You can use this value to manage the space required for data logs and keep the size below 100 MB for best performance. If required, you can free up space on the SD card by reducing the frequency and retention period for logged data and by deleting backups. To delete backups from the SD card, see Backing Up, Restoring, and Cloning the SmartServer.
The SmartServer 4.1 software will not run on SmartServer hardware with a dual core processor. You can determine which processor you have by reading the label on the bottom of the SmartServer. The serial number printed under the product name includes one letter. If the letter is F or later, you have a quad core processor. If the letter is A through E, you have a dual core processor that is not compatible with this release.
In some cases, after upgrading to SmartServer 4.1 from a prior release or after restarting the SmartServer, some operational devices will be marked down and shown with a red icon in the CMS Devices widget. You can mark a device incorrectly shown as down as up with a green icon by testing the device in the CMS Devices widget. (AP-11618, AP-11634)
In some cases, including upgrading to SmartServer 4.1 from a prior release, the Notification button in the CMS dashboard can become disabled which will disable all CMS warning and error notifications. To re-enable notifications, click the Notifications button. (AP-11442)
You can downgrade a SmartServer running SmartServer 4.1 to an earlier release if the earlier release is compatible with your SmartServer hardware. However, due to security improvements in SmartServer 4.1, to downgrade to SmartServer 3.6 or earlier you must run the prep_for_3.x.sh script before or after you re-image your SmartServer. See step 3 here for more information. (AP-11235)
When defining a Modbus XIF with 5-digit addresses, the address may be misinterpreted as a Modicon address. To work around, encode the address as a Modicon address by adding one to the address and putting a prefix of 0 (FC00),1 (FC01), 3 (FC04) or 4 (FC03) onto the address and omit the separate function code. (AP-11915)
Multi-select sometimes fails in the CMS Devices widget due to system events cancelling your selection. (AP-12187)
In some cases, the CMS displays stale data after you make a change. If a datapoint value, context, preset, or other value is not displayed as you expect, refresh your browser window (Ctrl-F5 in many browsers). If you are using the CMS Datapoints widget, you can click the Refresh button in the upper right corner of the widget. (LUM-7145, AP-7677)
We have added regions as a new type of context in the CMS. The new feature is not fully implemented yet. As a result, you cannot assign devices to regions. (AP-11349)
In some cases, a combination of certain datapoint property settings and alarm configuration can result in the SmartServer logging more alarms than expected in the Alarms widget. (AP-11328)
You cannot set the latitude and longitude for a SmartServer by typing new values in the Devices widget. To change the latitude and longitude for a SmartServer, you can either drag the SmartServer icon to a new location on the map in the Devices widget, or you can enter new values in the Planning widget. (AP-11085)
In some cases, when you deploy a connection template the SmartServer may become non-responsive. Restart the SmartServer to recover. (AP-11529)
In some cases, connections with many destinations may fail to update all destinations. If you have any connections with many destinations, test them to verify all destinations are updated as expected. If you observe any failed updates, break up the connection into multiple connections with fewer destinations per connection. (AP-9259)
In some cases, the CMS Sequencing widget may get stuck with an Adding Flows to Workspace message. Restart the SmartServer to eliminate the message.
In some cases, when you create a connection between two LON datapoints, the devices involved in the connection may be deprovisioned. You can recover by reprovisioning the devices after they become deprovisioned. (AP-8360)
You cannot delete a device that has any datapoints in a calendar event. To recover after deleting such a device, add back the device, delete its datapoints in any calendar events, and then delete the device again. (LUM-9443)

Always backup your SmartServer prior to updating it to the SmartServer 3.6 Update 2 software. To go back to an earlier release, either restore one of your backups with the earlier release, or re-image your SmartServer with a clean version of the earlier release as described in Updating with the SmartServer Configuration Page. Links to prior releases are available on this page. (LUM-8271)
The SmartServer 3.6 Update 2 software will not run on SmartServer hardware with a dual core processor. You can determine which processor you have by reading the label on the bottom of the SmartServer. The serial number printed under the product name includes one letter. If the letter is F or later, you have a quad core processor. If the letter is A through E, you have a dual core processor that is not compatible with this release.
IzoT CT 4.2 or a newer version, or IzoT Net Server 4.2 or a newer version, is required to use the IzoT Net Export Utility.
In some cases, the CMS displays stale data after you make a change. If a datapoint value, context, preset, or other value is not displayed as you expect, refresh your browser window (Ctrl-F5 in many browsers). If you are using the CMS Datapoint Browser, you can click the Refresh button in the upper right corner of the widget. (LUM-7145, AP-7677)
The SmartServer requires free space on the SD card for normal operation and requires logged data to be less than 8 GB. For optimal performance, keep logged data below 100 MB. The SmartServer includes a 32 GB SD card. You can run out of free space on the SD card if you create many backups or retain too much data in the data log, and performance will degrade if the storage for logged data exceeds 100 MB and will degrade significantly if the storage for logged data exceeds 8 GB. The Datapoint Properties widget displays an estimate of how much SD card space will be required for logged data based on your data log configuration. You can use this value to manage the space required for data logs and keep the size below 100 MB for best performance or keep the size below 8 GB for acceptable performance. If required, you can free up space on the SD card by deleting backups. To delete backups from the SD card, see Managing the SmartServer SD Card. (LUM-7271)
In some cases, connections with many destinations may fail to update all destinations. If you have any connections with many destinations, test them to verify all destinations are updated as expected. If you observe any failed updates, break up the connection into multiple connections with fewer destinations per connection. (AP-9259)
In some cases, when you create a connection between two LON datapoints, the devices involved in the connection may be deprovisioned. You can recover by reprovisioning the devices after they become deprovisioned. (AP-8360)
You cannot delete a device that has any datapoints in a calendar event. To recover after deleting such a device, add back the device, delete its datapoints in any calendar events, and then delete the device again. (LUM-9443)

Changes:

Add custom tags to datapoints by device type to simplify interfaces with AI, building analytics, and other applications. Device-type-specific datapoint tags can save you hundreds of hours of integration time. You can create your own tags so that you can use your favorite ontology such as Haystack or Google Digital Building Ontology.
Use a common set of contexts in the Remote CMS across multiple SmartServers. Using shared contexts, you can have high-level contexts such as sites and buildings that contain multiple SmartServers, and low-level contexts such as floors and rooms that are each managed by a single SmartServer.
Enhance Remote CMS security with the new wired IEEE-802.1X network access control and alternate ACMEv2 PKI system support options. The Remote CMS uses LetsEncrypt by default. With the new alternate PKI option, you can use other ACMEv2-compatible PKI systems such as KeyFactor.
Get control of log sizes with the new data and event log pruning interfaces.
Find what you need with new negative filters. Use the new “Not” option to define a display filter that only shows items that do not match the criteria you specify.
Increase productivity with faster BACnet device discovery.
The following problems have been fixed:
- Increased frequency of certificate renewal tests from weekly to daily. (AP-10384)
- In some cases, connections for LON power line devices were deleted and recreated after the SmartServer restarted. (AP-10302, LUM-9794)

Changes:

You can now configure the SmartServer to discover the domain ID for an existing LON network. See the LON Domain ID Settings section in (Optional) Add a LON Interface for more information. (AP-6300)
You can now manage your SmartServer from a new Segment Controllers tab in the SmartServer CMS Devices widget. This feature makes it easier for you to find and manage your SmartServer in the CMS. See Discovering, Defining, or Importing Devices for more information.
We have made it easier for developers to create custom drivers for new protocols and devices with proprietary interfaces. We did this by creating a new open source SmartServer driver template project on Github at github.com/izot/smartserver-driver-template. The project includes a makefile that generates a SmartServer update file containing your custom driver that you can load on your SmartServer using the Segment Controllers tab of the new Devices widget. We also updated the IAP driver API to improve support for reading and writing datapoints, and to add support for datapoints on your devices using any IAP datapoint types including structured and string types. See the README document in the project for instructions on how to create a new driver.
The Modbus driver now supports the Modbus UTF8 (CHAR8 and CHAR8_2) and UTF16 (CHAR16) string datatypes. (AP-8081)
The Apache Karaf runtime has been updated to version 4.2.13, and the Eclipse Jetty web server has been updated to version 9.4.43. (AP-8837)
The following problem has been fixed: OPC UA client connections to the SmartServer OPC UA Server sometimes failed when the SmartServer restarted. (AP-9358)

Warnings:

You can update an installed SmartServer running an earlier release of the SmartServer software to the SmartServer 3.4 software. However, after you have installed the SmartServer 3.4 software you cannot go back to an earlier release without either restoring a full system backup with the earlier release, or re-imaging your SmartServer with an earlier release. Always backup your SmartServer prior to updating it to the SmartServer 3.4 software. If you have to go back to an earlier release, either restore one of your backups with the earlier release, or re-image your SmartServer with a clean version of the earlier release as described in Updating with the SmartServer Configuration Page. Links to prior releases are available on this page. (LUM-8271)
In some cases, the SmartServer 3.4 software will fail to run on SmartServer hardware with a dual core processor. You can determine which processor you have by reading the label on the bottom of the SmartServer. The serial number printed under the product name includes one letter. If the letter is F or later, you have a quad core processor. If the letter is A through E, you have a dual core processor that is not compatible with this release.
IzoT CT 4.2 or a newer version, or IzoT Net Server 4.2 or a newer version, is required to use the IzoT Net Export Utility.
If you setup datapoint value alarm notifications, in rare cases the notifications may fail due to missing SMTP settings. To workaround, manually edit the SMTP settings in the com.echelon.cms.core.mail.cfg file. (LUM-9116)
When using signed security certificates, in some cases the automatic renewal of expired certificates will fail. If you have any expired signed certificates in your SmartServer, you can open a console interface and enter the following commands to renew them: (AP-9054)

/sbin/dehydrated -c
systemctl restart nginx

In some cases, the CMS displays stale data after you make a change. If a datapoint value, context, preset, or other value is not displayed as you expect, refresh your browser window (Ctrl-F5 in many browsers). If you are using the CMS Datapoint Browser, you can click the Refresh button in the upper right corner of the widget. (LUM-7145, AP-7677)
The SmartServer requires free space on the SD card for normal operation and requires logged data to be less than 8 GB. For optimal performance, keep logged data below 100 MB. The SmartServer includes a 32 GB SD card. You can run out of free space on the SD card if you create many backups or retain too much data in the data log, and performance will degrade if the storage for logged data exceeds 100 MB, and will degrade significantly if the storage for logged data exceeds 8 GB. The Datapoint Properties widget displays an estimate of how much SD card space will be required for logged data based on your data log configuration. You can use this value to manage the space required for data logs and keep the size below 100 MB for best performance, or keep the size below 8 GB for acceptable performance. If required, you can free up space on the SD card by deleting backups. To delete backups from the SD card, see Managing the SmartServer SD Card. (LUM-7271)
If you are using an IOX I/O Expansion Module, always plug the IOX into a USB port on the SmartServer instead of port on a USB hub.
In some cases, connections with many destinations may fail to update all destinations. If you have any connections with many destinations, test them to verify all destinations are updated as expected. If you observe any failed updates, break up the connection into multiple connections with fewer destinations per connection. (AP-9259)
You cannot update IAP output datapoints (which are the same as BACnet input datapoints) from calendar events. You can update IAP input datapoints (which are the same as BACnet output datapoints). This includes writes to BACnet inputs such as BACnet AI and BI objects. (LUM-7839)
In some cases, when you create a connection between two LON datapoints, the devices involved in the connection may be deprovisioned. You can recover by reprovisioning the devices after they become deprovisioned. (AP-8360)
If you re-imaged your SmartServer to SmartServer 3.4 from a higher release, and ran the prep_for_3.x.sh downgrade script, and the ip70-mac.service is in a failed state, then follow the steps in Restoring ip70-mac.service After Downgrading the SmartServer. (AP-13660)

Changes:

A new Connections widget has been added to simplify creating datapoint connections that enable changes to one or more source datapoints to be propagated to one or more destination datapoints. See Setting Up Datapoint Connections for more information.
A new incremental export capability is now available in the IzoT Net Export tool. This capability makes it easier to export LON devices from an LNS network or IzoT CT to the SmartServer. See Importing LON Devices from an LNS Network for details.
License management has been added. See Manage Licenses for more information.
You can now specify an override priority when updating the IAP Output Node in a Node-RED flow created in the Sequencing widget. (LUM-7681)
PostgreSQL was updated to version 12.9 to address a security vulnerability in PostgreSQL 12.6. (AP-8838)
Support for the Dialog power management IC (PMIC) has been added. Previous versions of the SmartServer IoT software only supported the NXP PMIC. Starting in 2022, some SmartServer IoTs are produced with the Dialog PMIC and some are produced with the NXP PMIC depending on supply chain availability. SmartServer IoT 3.3 and newer releases support both the Dialog PMIC and the NXP PMIC.
1The following problems have been fixed:
- The SmartServer did not read the priority array for a BACnet device when reading the present value of a BACnet object. (AP-8319)
- The SmartServer sometimes rejected BACnet XIF files (.BAC extension) that contained a Unicode byte order mark (BOM). The BACnet XIF file parser now correctly ignores the Unicode BOM character. (AP-8577)
- Exporting a LON network with the IzoT Net Export utility that included any devices or routers that were not online sometimes failed. (AP-8429, AP-8570, AP-8590)
- On a SmartServer with internal LON datapoints, the datapoint values were sometimes reported incorrectly after a SmartServer restart. (AP-7954)
- In some cases, the SmartServer would not detect and report an incorrect LON program ID when the program ID in a LON device did not match the expected program ID for the device. (AP-8589)
- The SmartServer OPC UA Server sometimes failed to correctly handle localized datapoint values. For example, if a localization transform was specified to convert a Celsius datapoint value to Fahrenheit, the transformation did not occur correctly. (LUM-8285)
- The SmartServer OPC UA Server sometimes failed to run when an edge device was deleted. (AP-8482)
- Multi-day all-day schedule events failed. (LUM-8815)
- Data log extraction failed after 24-hours. (LUM-8275)
- High and low limit alarm condition detection sometimes failed. (AP-8816)
- Connecting the SmartServer to a LAN or WAN channel after the initial power-up sometimes caused operational errors. (AP-8722)
- Updating a datapoint with a preset-value sometimes caused a warning-message to be displayed even though the update was successful. (AP-8715)

The following problems have been fixed:
- The OPC UA Server did not use any localization transformations specified in the the Datapoint Properties Widget. For example, if you specified a localization transformation to convert a Celsius temperature value to a Fahrenheit temperature value, the OPC UA Server always reported the temperature value in Celsius. (LUM-8668)
- The SmartServer LON interface sometimes failed if you powered up the SmartServer without a connection on the LAN or WAN interface. (AP-8831)
- When you updated a datapoint in the Datapoint Browser, in some cases the SmartServer updated the datapoint with a stale value instead of the value you entered. (LUM-8664)
- Certain alarm conditions including many LON device communication errors caused alarm reporting errors. (AP-8830)

Warnings:

You can update an installed SmartServer running an earlier release of the SmartServer software to the 3.2 Update 3 release. However, after you have installed 3.2 Update 3 you cannot go back to an earlier release prior to 3.2 Update 2 without first clearing all devices out of the SmartServer. If you attempt to load an earlier version of the SmartServer software on a SmartServer with 3.2 Update 3 and provisioned devices, the earlier software is not compatible with the 3.2 Update 3 database and will fail to run. Always backup your SmartServer prior to updating it to the 3.2 Update 3 software. If you have to go back to an earlier release, either restore one of your backups with the earlier release, or re-image your SmartServer with a clean version of the earlier release as described in Updating with the SmartServer Configuration Page. Links to prior releases are available on this page. (LUM-8271)
In some cases, the SmartServer 3.2 Update 3 software will fail to run on SmartServer hardware with a dual core processor.

IzoT CT 4.2 or a newer version, or IzoT Net Server 4.2 or a newer version, is required to use the IzoT Net Export Utility.
If you use the Datapoint Browser with a structured datapoint, such as a SNVT_switch datapoint with state and value fields, and you have assigned presets to the datapoint in the Datapoint Properties widget, you will only be able to specify preset values in the Datapoint Browser. This issue does not affect Modbus or BACnet datapoints since they do not use structured datapoints. (LUM-8832)
The SmartServer may fail to communicate with LON devices when using LON independent management mode (IMM) and changing a SmartServer network interface after importing an IzoT Net Server or LNS database. If you lose communication with LON devices in IMM after changing a network interface, backup your SmartServer and then reset your databases as described in Resetting the SmartServer to Factory Defaults. (AP-8563)
If your SmartServer has any BACnet devices with a discovered device interface (XIF) and you export your device types using the Settings button or the Devices Widget Export action, your discovered BACnet XIF will not be included in the export. You can get a copy of the discovered XIF in the /var/apollo/data/bacnetrouter/res directory on your SmartServer. (LUM-8265)
You cannot include leading zeros in the device unique ID (UID) and the BACnet object instance numbers that you specify in the BACnet XIF (BAC) file. The CMS will accept the definitions, but some operations will fail due to the leading zeros. (AP-8018)
You cannot update IAP output datapoints (which are the same as BACnet input datapoints) from calendar events. You can update IAP input datapoints (which are the same as BACnet output datapoints). This includes writes to BACnet inputs such as BACnet AI and BI objects. (LUM-7839)

The LON IP-852 router sometimes failed to route large network variables. This problem has been fixed. (AP-8426)

Warnings:

Limited testing has been completed for this release. The fix for routing 222-byte LON NVs has been verified, but there has been no regression testing completed for this update. If you are looking for a fully tested stable release, use SmartServer 3.2.
You can update an installed SmartServer running an earlier release of the SmartServer software to the 3.2 release. However, you cannot go back without clearing all devices out of the SmartServer. If you attempt to load an earlier version of the SmartServer software on a SmartServer with 3.2 and provisioned devices, the earlier software is not compatible with the 3.2 database and will fail to run. Always backup your SmartServer prior to updating it to the 3.2 software. If you have to go back to an earlier release, either restore one of your backups with the earlier release, or re-image your SmartServer with a clean version of the earlier release as described in Updating with the SmartServer Configuration Page. Links to prior releases are available on this page. (LUM-8271)
In some cases, the SmartServer 3.2 Update 1 software will fail to run on SmartServer hardware with a dual core processor. You can determine which processor you have by reading the label on the bottom of the SmartServer. The serial number printed under the product name includes one letter. If the letter is F or later, you have a quad core processor. If the letter is A through E, you have a dual core processor that is not compatible with this release.
The source of datapoint names has changed with this release to make the names easier to understand and recognize. If you update a SmartServer with a prior release, the datapoint names may change for any new devices you install, whereas they will stay the same for devices you installed with the previous release. Both sets of names will appear in the CMS Datapoint Properties widget, but only the new names will work for any new devices you install. To simplify system maintenance, redefine your datapoint properties, calendar events, and Sequencing widget flows to use the new datapoint names.
You cannot use the apollo-reset command from the SmartServer console. The command is available from the console, but if you enter the command your SmartServer may fail or become corrupted. To reset the SmartServer database, or to return a SmartServer to factory defaults, follow the procedure at Resetting the SmartServer to Factory Defaults. (AP-8427)
You cannot view logged data in the CMS Datapoint Browser. Logged data is available to custom applications and web pages that use IAP/REST or IAP/WS to view the data log contents. (LUM-8529)
You cannot include leading zeros in the device unique ID (UID) and the BACnet object instance numbers that you specify in the BACnet XIF (BAC) file. The CMS will accept the definitions, but some operations will fail due to the leading zeros. (AP-8018)
You cannot update IAP output datapoints (which are the same as BACnet input datapoints) from calendar events. You can update IAP input datapoints (which are the same as BACnet output datapoints). This includes writes to BACnet inputs such as BACnet AI and BI objects. (LUM-7839)
If you create a calendar event with a sunset or sunrise time, in some cases you will not be able to edit the event after you create it. If you cannot change an event that requires a change, delete the event and create a new one with your desired changes. (LUM-8268)
In some cases, when you create a connection between two LON datapoints, the devices involved in the connection may be deprovisioned. You can recover by reprovisioning the devices after they become deprovisioned. (AP-8360)
If your SmartServer has any BACnet devices with a discovered device interface (XIF) and you export your device types using the Settings button or the Devices Widget Export action, your discovered BACnet XIF will not be included in the export. You can get a copy of the discovered XIF in the /var/apollo/data/bacnetrouter/res directory on your SmartServer. (LUM-8265)
In some cases, the CMS displays stale data after you make a change. If a datapoint value, context, preset, or other value is not displayed as you expect, refresh your browser window (Ctrl-F5 in many browsers). If you are using the CMS Datapoint Browser, you can click the Refresh button in the upper right corner of the widget. (LUM-7145, AP-7677)
The SmartServer requires free space on the SD card for normal operation and requires logged data to be less than 8 GB. For optimal performance, keep logged data below 100 MB. The SmartServer includes a 32 GB SD card. You can run out of free space on the SD card if you create many backups or retain too much data in the data log, and performance will degrade if the storage for logged data exceeds 100 MB, and will degrade significantly if the storage for logged data exceeds 8 GB. The Datapoint Properties widget displays an estimate of how much SD card space will be required for logged data based on your data log configuration. You can use this value to manage the space required for data logs and keep the size below 100 MB for best performance, or keep the size below 8 GB for acceptable performance. If required, you can free up space on the SD card by deleting backups. To delete backups from the SD card, see Managing the SmartServer SD Card. (LUM-7271)
If you are using an IOX I/O Expansion Module, always plug the IOX into a USB port on the SmartServer instead of port on a USB hub.

The Ubuntu Linux operating system on the SmartServer has been updated to version 20.04. Several platform components such as the Node.js, Java VM, Python, and PHP components have also been updated. The Release Notes now list the key platform component version numbers. (AP-8056 and AP-8057)
You can now discover BACnet devices without first creating a BACnet device interface (XIF) file. When the SmartServer discovers a BACnet device, if a BACnet XIF file does not already exist for the device, the SmartServer automatically uploads the BACnet XIF definition from the BACnet device. (AP-5210 and AP-7550)
You can now modify a device interface (XIF) definition that you have created for a BACnet or Modbus device. For example, you can change or delete a block or datapoint on a provisioned device to correct or enhance the original device interface definition. (AP-8067)
Datapoint naming in the user interface and programming APIs has been updated to improve consistency and usability. (LUM-7848)
Errors generated and reported by the SmartServer CMS are now included in the CMS Alarms widget to provide a single interface for viewing summary alarm status and for viewing and clearing alarms. (LUM-7870 and LUM-7877)
You can now disable IP-852 checksums to provide compatibility with third-party IP-852 routers and devices that do not correctly implement IP-852 checksums. (AP-7766)
The SmartServer uses the Ready LED to provide a visual indicator that the CMS is ready after initial startup. (AP-8061)
You can now load applications into LON devices where the application has a different program ID than the application already loaded in the device. (AP-8026)

Downloads:

Changes:

Quad core support! Starting with Revision F of the SmartServer IoT, all SmartServer IoTs now include a quad core ARM processor. Earlier SmartServer IoTs included a dual core processor. The result is better performance at the same price. You can now monitor up to 40 events per second with the new quad core hardware–the dual core hardware was limited to 20 events per second. You can determine which processor you have by reading the label on the bottom of the SmartServer. The serial number printed just under the product name includes one letter. If the letter is F or later, you have a quad core processor. If the letter is A through E, you have a dual core processor. Starting with SmartServer 2.9 software, the software supports both the dual core and quad core versions. Older versions of the SmartServer software will not work on the quad core hardware.
The performance warning threshold in the CMS Datapoint Properties has been increased from 20 events per second to 40 events per second due to the higher performance of the quad core SmartServer.
The following beta features introduced in previous releases are still in beta:
- BACnet client for interfacing with BACnet/IP devices.
- IOX I/O Expansion Module support for adding digital I/O, relay outputs, and metering inputs to the SmartServer.
- CMS Sequencing widget
Bug fixes and performance improvements, including the following:
- Changing the SmartServer hostname sometimes resulted in an unexpected This Site Can't be Reached error message. (AP-7470)
- Secure browsing sometimes failed when you enabled signed security certificates. (LUM-7437)
- Updates sometimes failed if you have a large amount of data log data on your SD card. (LUM-6493)
- On-demand monitoring sometimes failed with BACnet devices. (AP-7568)
- Datapoints were not consistently sorted in the CMS Datapoint Properties. (LUM-7376)
- Datapoint value localization was sometimes disabled when it should have been enabled. (LUM-7370)
- The CMS Devices Test command sometimes returned an incorrect result for BACnet or Modbus devices. (AP-6239)

Warnings:

If you are using an IOX I/O Expansion Module, always plug the IOX into a USB port on the SmartServer instead of port on a USB hub.
You cannot install more than a total of five network interfaces (U60 or U70) and IOX modules in a single SmartServer. If you have five total, or if you have four and require a spare USB port, use a powered USB 3.0 compliant hub and plug all the U60 and U70 network interfaces into the hub. Always plug any IOX modules directly into the SmartServer and do not plug them into a hub.

In some cases, the CMS displays stale datapoint values and context information. If a datapoint value or context is not displayed as you expect, refresh your browser window (Ctrl-F5 in many browsers). (LUM-7107, LUM-7104)
If all the widgets in the CMS disappear from your CMS dashboard, click any widget name in the list of widgets on the left side of the dashboard. (LUM-7324)
When you edit a preset value in the CMS Datapoint Properties with a localization rule, the CMS may save a slightly different value than the value you entered. For example, if you enter 35 for a preset value, the CMS may store 35.1 instead of 35. (LUM-7315)
When you modify a preset value or localization rule in the Datapoint Properties, click the Refresh button in the upper right of the Datapoint Browser to activate the change. (LUM-7145)
In some cases, connections to BACnet devices do not function correctly. (AP-5906)

SmartServer IoT 2.8

Release Date: July 20, 2020

Versions:

SmartServer IoT Software: 2.80.042
IzoT Net Export Utility: 1.30.335
Hardware Compatibility: Model 72201R-240 or 72201R-248, Hardware Revisions A – E (Dual Core ARM Processor)

Downloads:

Changes:

Modbus device discovery has been added. To discover a Modbus device, you must have a Modbus XIF file with markers that identify fixed datapoints that the SmartServer can use to identify the device.
A new Planning widget has been added that simplifies organization of large systems by allowing you to define campus, building, area, and room contexts.
You can now set an override priority when updating a datapoint value in the CMS Datapoint Browser. If you update a datapoint on a BACnet device, the SmartServer updates the priority array on the device if the device has a writable priority array. (AP-7221)
The connection (CON) file format has changed. Leave the Area Scope, and Zone Scope fields blank in when specifying a Device Name.
Defining monitoring for a datapoint in either the Datapoint Properties widget or the Datapoint Properties (DLA) file has been simplified with a new Monitored property. (LUM-7054)
You can now specify the polling interval from the Datapoint Properties widget or a Datapoint Properties (DLA) file using the same method for BACnet, LON, and Modbus devices. Previously, the polling interval for a BACnet device had to be specified in the BACnet XIF (BAC) file. (AP-5769)
Documentation has been added for using web sockets in custom web pages.
The following new beta features are available with this release:
- Sequencing and Web Page Builder – a new Sequencing widget is available in the CMS that you can use to build sequences of operation using the built-in Node-RED flow editing and web page design tool
- Presets – you can now define and use presets. A preset is a normalized value for a datapoint that you can use for scheduling, alarming, logging, displaying, and sequencing datapoint values from datapoints on devices with different data types, potentially using incompatible data types or using different transformation rules for the data types.
- Datapoint Localization – you can now define datapoint localization transformation to convert the SI units used by the SmartServer into Imperial units. For example, you can use a localization rule to convert a temperature value reported in Celsius to a temperature value reported in Fahrenheit.
The following beta features have been released and are no longer in beta:
- OPC UA server for interfacing with OPC UA clients such as Wonderware InTouch – the number of datapoint subscriptions supported by the SmartServer OPC UA Server has been increased from 1000 datapoints to 10,000 datapoints. (AP-6824)
- U70 PL support for interfacing with LON power line devices using the U70 PL interface with 3-phase PL coupler and power supply (the optional U70 PL USB Network Interface module is required)
- CMS Calendar widget for scheduling events
The following beta features introduced in previous releases are still in beta:
- BACnet client for interfacing with BACnet/IP devices
- IOX I/O Expansion Module support for adding digital I/O, relay outputs, and metering inputs to the SmartServer
Bug fixes and performance improvements have been implemented for the BACnet Server, alarm management, and scheduling.

Warnings:

You cannot change the host name for a SmartServer from the default. Each SmartServer has a unique hostname printed on the bottom label. Some operations will fail if you change the host name. (AP-6914, AP-7470)
The SmartServer requires free space on the SD card for normal operation and requires logged data to be less than 8 GB. For optimal performance, keep logged data below 100 MB. The SmartServer includes a 32 GB SD card. You can run out of free space on the SD card if you create many backups or retain too much data in the data log, and performance will degrade if the storage for logged data exceeds 100 MB, and will degrade significantly if the storage for logged data exceeds 8 GB. The Datapoint Properties widget displays an estimate of how much SD card space will be required for logged data based on your data log configuration. You can use this value to manage the space required for data logs and keep the size below 100 MB for best performance, or keep the size below 8 GB for acceptable performance. If required, you can free up space on the SD card by deleting backups. To delete backups from the SD card, see Managing the SmartServer SD Card. (LUM-7271)
If you update your SmartServer from the CMS, the update may fail if you have a large amount of data log data on your SD card. Back up your SmartServer before doing an update. If the update fails, re-image your SmartServer from the console interface as described in Updating with the SmartServer Console. (LUM-6493)
The Devices widget Test command may sometimes return an incorrect result for BACnet or Modbus devices. (AP-6239)
The order of datapoints in the Datapoint Browser sometimes changes. Verify you have the correct datapoint before changing a datapoint value. (LUM-7376)
In some cases, the CMS displays stale datapoint values and context information. If a datapoint value or context is not displayed as you expect, refresh your browser window (Ctrl-F5 in many browsers). (LUM-7370, LUM-7107, LUM-7104)
If all the widgets in the CMS disappear from you CMS dashboard, click any widget name in the list of widgets on the left side of the dashboard. (LUM-7324)
When you edit a preset value in Datapoint Properties with a localization rule, the saved value may be slightly different than the value you entered. For example, if you enter 35 for a preset value, the saved value may be 35.1. (LUM-7315)
When you modify a preset value or localization rule in the Datapoint Properties, click the Refresh button in the upper right of the Datapoint Browser to activate the change. (LUM-7145)
In some cases, connections to BACnet devices do not function correctly. (AP-5906)

SmartServer IoT 2.7 Update 1

Release Date: March 31, 2020

Versions:

SmartServer IoT Software: 2.75.020

Hardware Compatibility: Model 72201R-240 or 72201R-248, Hardware Revisions A – E (Dual Core ARM Processor)

Downloads:

Changes:

A new beta feature is available that simplifies replicating a SmartServer image to multiple SmartServers. You can use this feature to create a golden image that you deploy to many SmartServers.
Added support for power line LON devices, including support for power line devices with repeating functionality using the Enhanced LonTalk Proxy Protocol. Peer-to-peer connections are not supported with Enhanced LonTalk Proxy Protocol repeating enabled.
The default datapoint priority for events in the Calendar widget has been changed to the Normal priority. This is the same priority used by the Datapoint Browser widget so you can override a scheduled event from the Datapoint Browser, and the next scheduled event will overwrite the override. You can create override events in the Calendar by assigning a priority from 1 to 16. You cannot override these higher priority events from the Datapoint Browser.
The following changes were implemented for the IzoT Net Export Utility:
- Support for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows.
- Support for IzoT Net networks with multiple SmartServers. An exported subsystem can only contain one SmartServer.
- Subnet and node IDs are now exported from the IzoT Net database to the SmartServer.
- Virtual devices hosted on the SmartServer can now be placed in any subsystem in IzoT CT.
- Export time has been reduced in some cases.
Bug fixes and performance improvements, including fixes and improvements for the following:
- The Reset to Defaults command on the SmartServer Configuration System webpage would corrupt the SmartServer if you entered the wrong password.
- You could not change the filename of a previously imported BACnet, LON, or Modbus XIF file.
- You could not modify a previously defined connection.
- The BACnet client driver did not respond to on-demand poll requests.
- External BACnet clients could not update datapoints published by the SmartServer.
- Modbus device polling would fail if the device was was disconnected and re-connected.
- Modbus devices would sometimes be reported as offline when they were online.

Warnings:

You cannot change the host name for a SmartServer from the default. Each SmartServer has a unique hostname printed on the bottom label. Some operations will fail if you change the host name. (AP-6914)
You can only enter an integer alarm limit as an integer value. For example, you can enter 85 as a temperature alarm value, but you cannot enter 85.00. You can enter a fractional value as a fractional value. For example, you can enter 85.5 as a temperature alarm value. (LUM-6679)
The OPC UA Server is limited to 1000 datapoints. (AP-6824)
XIF file and device type names are case sensitive. Do not create two XIF files or two device types with the same name but different case. (LUM-6554)
Meta data in type files cannot contain spaces. (LUM-6312)
In some cases, if you specify a stagger value in a Calendar event definition, the stagger will not be implemented. (AP-6546)
In some cases, connections to BACnet devices do not function correctly. (AP-5906)
Re-provisioning a de-provisioned BACnet device does not work sometimes. (AP-5742)
The BACnet Server trending service is disabled.
The BACnet Server scheduling service is read-only.
You may see an unrecoverable error if you unplug an IOX device less than 15 seconds after powering it up. To prevent this problem, always wait at least 15 seconds before unplugging an IOX. (AP-4986)

SmartServer IoT 2.7

Release Date: December 1, 2019

Versions:

SmartServer IoT Software: 2.70.015
IzoT Net Export Utility: 1.20.280
Hardware Compatibility: Model 72201R-240 or 72201R-248, Hardware Revisions A – E (Dual Core ARM Processor)

Downloads:

Changes:

Maximum sustained throughput has been improved by 250% – sustained throughput is now 40 events per second
Device capacity has been increased to 1000 devices
Released the Calendar widget introduced as a beta in 2.6; added support for scheduling based on sunrise and sunset
Added LON device discovery to simplify provisioning of existing LON networks
Added a pause/resume button to the Devices widget to temporarily pause background polling to reduce overhead during system provisioning
Bug fixes and performance improvements, including the following:
- IP-852 communication stopped when IP network communication was temporarily disrupted.
- IP-852 port value was limited to 1500-1700.
- CSV file metadata formatting was inconsistent.
- The Expected Interval value for a datapoint had to be set to a non-zero value to enable logging.

Warnings:

The BACnet Server trending service is disabled.
The BACnet Server scheduling service is read-only.
CSV file metadata tags must be in a separate cell from the metadata values. For example, the metadata tag to specify the file type for a file is #filetype, without quotes. The metadata value to specify a Modbus XIF file is Modbus_xif, without quotes. The metadata tag and the metadata value must be separated by a command. For example, the complete metadata entry for a Modbus XIF file embedded in a CSV file is #filetype,Modbus_xif, with no quotes. If you open the file in Excel, the tag and value will appear in two adjacent cells. Be sure not to combine the two cells into one. Some of the example CSV files from earlier releases incorrectly used quotes and must be updated for the 2.7 release.

SmartServer IoT 2.6 Update 1

Release Date: November 1, 2019

Versions:

SmartServer IoT Software: 2.61.005
IzoT Net Export Utility: 1.20.280

Downloads:

Changes:

SmartServer startup would fail if a custom application created a large number of IAP/MQ requests immediately at startup. With this fix, it is still a good idea for custom applications, services, and drivers to throttle traffic during the first 5 minutes after startup.
The beta BACnet logger service caused logins to be locked out because it was using a fixed password of "ea888". The beta BACnet logger has been disabled for this release to prevent lockouts.

Warnings:

Connection file (CON extension) imports, as described in Setting up Datapoint Connections , may fail if you update your SmartServer software as described in Updating or Re-imaging the SmartServer IoT, or if you reset your image to factory defaults as described in Resetting the SmartServer to Factory Defaults.
