RDDS is now also available in Italian, bringing the total number of languages supported by the platform to eleven. This enables operators, commissioning engineers and service personnel to work with the system in their native language, reducing complexity and improving usability.

International test facilities often involve teams from different countries and disciplines. By providing a localized user interface, RDDS helps minimize misunderstandings, accelerates onboarding and supports efficient operation throughout the entire lifecycle of a test system Test systems Test systems evaluate the functionality, load capacity and wear of technical components under realistic conditions. .

The latest RDDS release introduces several enhancements to the I/O Diagnostics environment, making it easier to navigate and analyze complex automation systems.

Inactive modules and symbols can now be hidden automatically, allowing engineers to focus on relevant information only. In addition, I/O signals can be grouped according to their parent module, providing a more structured and intuitive view of the system architecture.

These improvements reduce visual complexity, simplify troubleshooting and help engineers identify issues more quickly, particularly in large-scale test systems Test systems Test systems evaluate the functionality, load capacity and wear of technical components under realistic conditions. with extensive I/O configurations.

The latest RDDS release introduces several improvements that simplify software deployment, operation and maintenance.

The DataStore component can now be operated without administrator privileges, reducing system administration effort and simplifying compliance with modern IT security requirements. In addition, users migrating from legacy RDDS versions are now provided with direct access to support resources during the migration process.

These enhancements help reduce deployment complexity and support smoother software maintenance throughout the lifecycle of a test system Test systems Test systems evaluate the functionality, load capacity and wear of technical components under realistic conditions. .

The alarm management functionality has been enhanced to provide a clearer and more focused overview of system events.

Acknowledged and inactive alarms can now be automatically removed from the alarm list, allowing operators to concentrate on active and relevant issues. This reduces visual clutter and improves transparency during test execution and troubleshooting.

The result is a more efficient alarm handling process and faster identification of operational issues.

Managing and reusing project configurations efficiently is essential for modern test automation projects.

The latest RDDS release introduces several enhancements to project handling and configuration management. Global names can now be modified directly within the import/export dialog, providing greater flexibility when transferring project elements between different applications and environments. In addition, the import process has been refined so that duplicate identifiers are only generated when an element with the same name already exists in the target project.

These improvements simplify configuration management, reduce manual post-processing after imports and help maintain a clear and consistent project structure, particularly when working with large-scale automation projects and reusable engineering components.

RDDS now supports cloning, exporting and importing complete modules and test sequences.

This functionality enables validated engineering components to be transferred directly between projects, reducing implementation effort and simplifying the reuse of existing automation logic. Standardized modules and proven test procedures can be replicated efficiently, helping to ensure consistency across multiple test systems Test systems Test systems evaluate the functionality, load capacity and wear of technical components under realistic conditions. and applications.

The result is a more modular engineering approach, reduced project execution time and improved maintainability throughout the entire lifecycle of a test automation project.

RDDS now automatically closes all open display pages when activating a different test bench variant.

This enhancement ensures that visualization and operator interfaces remain consistent with the active system configuration. By eliminating outdated or variant-specific display pages, the system provides a clearer operational environment and reduces the potential for confusion when working with multiple test bench configurations.

The result is improved operator guidance, greater transparency and more reliable handling of variant-dependent test applications.

RDDS now supports the grouping of configuration elements by assemblies, providing a more structured representation of complex test automation projects.

This functionality enables engineering teams to organize project data according to the underlying system architecture, improving transparency and simplifying navigation within large applications. Configuration elements can be managed in a more logical and maintainable manner, particularly in projects consisting of multiple subsystems and automation components.

The result is improved project organization, enhanced maintainability and more efficient handling of complex test system configurations.
