Summer release for Ethernet Bridge

R3 Solutions publishes the 'Summer Release' of the software for the Wireless Ethernet Bridge with new and improved functions. The release and the parallel introduction of 'Bridge E' marks the start of a six-month software release cycle.

In conjunction with the current version of the Echoring Ethernet Bridge, which will be called 'Bridge E' in future, R3 Solutions is embarking on "a new era": in future, there will be two major software releases for R3 products per year: a 'Summer Release' with new tested functions and a 'Winter Release' aimed at system maintenance. The most visible change in the summer release is the new control and configuration interface 'Plant UI', which allows industrial users to centrally manage even highly scaled Bridge-E installations. The Plant User Interface is part of the now Windows-based Config Server, which provides configuration, update handling and device control. The previously required dedicated Config server as additional hardware is therefore obsolete.

Another new feature is the so-called 'Echoring Runtime Control Interface (ERCI)'. The control interface is available directly in the bridge and via the Plant UI. It enables the status of the devices to be recorded using scripts and their functions to be adjusted during operation using control commands.
