Version
1.9 released 1-31-2004
WxRetran
1.
Replaced zip software with correct problem with unzipping
Noaa zip archives.
2.
The program now creates the packet file date/time in UTC
time, regardless of the computer time zone.
3.
The program can now serve data to the WxBBSrvr (Byte Blaster
Server). This option is
set on the System tab. When
enabled, the server will send packets to WxBBSrvr.
Setting this option will also cause WxBBSrvr to be a private
byte blaster server. This
option can be useful to those retransmission operators that want to
have an Internet backup server for their local content.
WxBBSrvr
1.
Moved the Options menu under File and renamed it Setup.
This makes this program look like the other Weather Message
programs.
2.
Added a Server Status screen.
This screen can be view by clicking on Help and Server
Status.
3.
The program will no
longer display the error message 20102, “You
cannot change the Remote Host at this time.”
This is not an error condition.
4.
The program will display a warning message if the ingest
programs have not been setup for byte blaster server support.
5.
The program now receives data from the ingest programs using
UDP. It is no longer
necessary to read the data from the BBTemp directory. This capability now allows for multiple byte blaster servers
on the same local subnet using only one WxByte program. Contact Weather Message support for additional information.
6.
If the program receives data from the WxReTran, it
automatically switches the server to private operation.
7.
The program will now check to see if Byte Blaster Server
support is enabled on both the Ingest and Retransmission programs.
If both are enabled, the program will display a message and
terminate. The program
can only receive data from one source Serial/Internet or
Retransmission.
8.
The TCP/IP port and Maximum number of users can now be setup
on the setup screen.
9.
Added an option to store the log file daily.
Enabling this option enables it for all programs.
10.
Remove the duplicate connection check.
WxRadar
1. Updated the
radar sites file with the latest radar site information.
2.
Added an option to retrieve using the http protocol.
This seems to be much faster than using ftp.
3.
Added the capability to specify which radar image to
download. Also added
the capability to specify the file name to use when placing the
image in the ingest directories.
4.
Added additional status messages for the http transfer.
5.
If a radar image is not available, the program will now show
and copy a “Radar Unavailable” image.
