Version 4.2
|
 |
NEW - Supports SecureDongle X Hardware Key for Licensing

|

|
Benderlink now uses a different location to store data and configuration files to comply with Microsoft standards for where programs store changing data in Windows.
|
NEW - Splash Screen
|
The new splash screen shows the version and date of release. |
|
Other Changes

ENHANCED:
The SEND and GET buttons are now easier to see and understand than in previous versions. This will help the operator choose the correct button the first time.
NEW: Open Folder Button
The Open Folder command allows you to open any data folder, then drag and drop a data file into Benderlink for EL. Benderlink accepts filenames with $$$, EL, and MES (Aicon) filename extensions.
NEW: FILENAME ASSOCIATION
Now you can double click on any $$$, EL, or MES file and automatically open Benderlink with that file data loaded.
NEW: Drag and Drop Files
You can now drag and drop data files into Benderlink.
NEW: User Interface Skins
New skins are available: WMP 2008 and Beijing
UPDATE: Support Files Updated
The following support programs were updated in the setup program:
- HDD32.exe (HASP Hardware Key Installation Driver)
- KeyCheck.exe (v6)
- PingTest.exe
CHANGE: Benderlink NO Longer Minimizes to the Notification Area
Minimizing to the notification area of Windows (lower right corner) was less helpful than we had planned. In some cases it was confusing. The operator would believe that Benderlink was no longer running when it was. So we've removed that feature.
REPAIR: Benderlink Now Handles EXTENDED Eaton Leonard Data Properly
The previous version would not handle EXTENDED data properly. Extended values would appear as 0.000 in the log when they had been edited to some non-zero number. This issue is now repaired.
ENHANCED: Benderlink Now Verifies the Presence of Sub-folders
Some sub-folders are necessary for Benderlink to run and store information. These folders are now verified every time Benderlink is run.
