Version 2.11.1.7 (05.05.2026)

Recommended firmware version: 36.12.0 or higher

New Features:

  • New bit signal tracing for Status Words, Control Words and similar signals. A User‑defined bit selection is available in trace channel configuration. After recording, the selected bits are displayed.
  • Predefined Safety Trace Profiles updated to support the new bit signal tracing functionality.
  • Improved Commutation Angle Detection for Festo Motors.
  • The online help (F1) now appears in a modern HTML format and opens in all common browsers (e.g., Edge).
  • The "Reset to Default" function has been added for CMMT‑AS S3 devices, allowing users to quickly restore all parameters to default settings.


Fixed Bugs:

  • No connection to CMMT single protocol devices (CMMT‑xx‑EC/PN/EN).
  • No temperature sensor parameters are set for EMMH motors.
  • Some pages disabled with firmware older than 36.12.0 like Motor parameter page and Process data page
  • On the Trace Configuration page the data trigger with value mode "Threshold" does not work.
  • Some parameters are not updated on the parameter pages in some cases (e.g. active encoder parameter P0.11617.1.0).
  • In some cases, the plug‑in appears to be in online mode, but it is actually offline. This may lead to subsequent errors.
  • In the record table, in some cases duplicate transitions appear when connecting to the device.
  • When disconnecting with unstored parameters the Store on device workflow doesn't work.
  • On the process data page are some control and status words incorrect when using CIP‑Sync telegram 908.
  • Timestamps are not displayed in the error log.
  • Parameter import via json file does not work correctly in some combination with the Record Table.
  • The plug‑in crashes after canceling the filter options in the parameter list.
  • A misleading or incorrect dialog appears sometimes during Store and Load project operations.
  • In some cases the Touch Probe parameter visualization does not react to the configured input settings.
  • CMMT initialization fails during sizing import under certain conditions.
  • In parallel axis systems, the KSK limit is not correctly considered in torque limit computation.
  • Entering the working stroke for EPRF‑BS‑75‑%% axes is not possible.
  • Project saving fails under specific conditions.
  • The PROFINET station name is no longer displayed in the user interface.
  • Parameter names in the Extended Process Data List are no longer visible.
Version 2.11.0.663 (27.01.2026)

New Features:

  • Performance improvements for the scan import, plug-in startup (1st, 2nd, …), and when connecting or disconnecting a device
  • On the parameter pages it is possible to copy and paste parameters to the clipboard
  • The “record table” and the “parameter list” can be imported or exported to a JSON file
  • The trace channel profiles can be imported or exported to a JSON file on the trace configuration page
  • When importing a JSON file or pasting parameters, a comparison dialog is shown to compare the new values with the values in the project
  • Extensive and improved parameter file export is available for Rockwell L5X, Festo PCK and Siemens DB. The selection of parameter exports (e.g. only changed values) is now possible through simple configuration of user-defined settings for CMMTs. This can reduce memory size and speed up download time.
  • The new CIP-Sync profile (Telegram 908) is supported on the parameter and diagnosis pages (requires Firmware 36.12.xx or higher).
  • The new EMMH motors are supported
  • The new EPRF axes are supported
  • Support for ELGD-BS-…-SU with spindle support and calculation of the correct dynamics for bending and buckling
  • The predefined trace channel profiles for safety functions are revised and improved
  • When opening a plug-in after an HGO/EMS import, a dialog appears to show and select all parameters that can be imported
  • HGO/EMS import improvements (import and activate software limits for linear axes; import cable length, connection shaft, external brake resistor; import open shaft systems with user-defined axis; import application moment of inertia for rotative load cases with rotary module; import base value acceleration/deceleration; import rotative load cases as an unlimited axis; …)
  • New implementation for better field-weakening support (requires Firmware 36.12.xx or higher): There is a new parameter P1.71371.0.0 loaded from the database. To use field weakening with an existing project, go to the drive configuration, select the motor, type in the existing motor in the search bar, select the motor again, and press Apply.
  • In the adorner of an error, warning, or information message, extended diagnostics with remedy information is available on the “Device State” diagnosis page
  • When editing a record table set, it is possible to show via the adorner the parameter and the corresponding fieldbus information
  • A new filter function is available in the “Parameter List” to filter and search for fieldbus IDs for EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP, and PROFINET
  • Improved operation of S3 devices during safety configuration via the X19 interface with Fieldbus selected as Safety Control Interface.
  • The safety validation assistant is available as a BETA version to supports and simplify the validation of the electric drive system for performing the safety function tests required by the standard. Afterwards, all results will be added to the report.


Fixed Bugs:

  • When choosing a reference status as a transition in the record table, an exception occurs
  • A plug-in upgrade of old versions with legacy trace files in CSV format leads to an error
  • In some cases a misleading dialog appears when saving zero-point offset is already done
  • On the “Process Data” diagnosis page, in some cases incorrect status and control words are displayed
  • The “Reset to Default” function does not work for torque limitations
  • The F1 help key to open the online help does not work on the encoder interface


Known Limitation:

  • On the "Trace Configuration" diagnostics page, the selected data trigger with the value mode "Threshold" is not working. Therefore the parameter P0.60012.0.0 has to be set manually in the parameter list.
  • For S3 devices the "Reset to default" button and functionality is not available (will be implemented again in the next release). 
Version 2.10.0.103 (14.01.2026)

New Features:

  • All new CMMT-AS-S3 devices are now fully supported by the CMMT-AS Plug-in and the Festo Automation Suite
  • New parameter pages enable commissioning of all Advanced Safety functions (STO, SBC, SS1, SS2, SOS, SMS, SLS).
  • An additional parameter page has been added for configuring the safety control interfaces I/O and PROFIsafe.
  • A new diagnosis page clearly displays the status of the individual safety sub-functions.
  • The new report generation feature allows creating a document (word) that contains an export of the safety-related parameterization. This supports the validation and documentation of the drive system.
  • A new user management for CMMT-AS-S3 devices supports user roles like the Safety-System-Administrator (Sadmin), who is authorized to adapt and store safety-related parameters on the device.
  • New predefined trace channel profiles are available for each safety function, as a guidance which trace channels are relevant for each safety function.

Fixed Bugs:

  • In some special cases, it can happen that the trace resolution is not calculated any more.
  • A warning icon is displayed on the "Store on Device" button after each restart.
  • In some cases on the application data page, a fatal error occurs by clicking on the copy to clipboard button in the adorner pop-up window.
  • In the record table when using the write Parameter function from the parameter list, an incorrect description is displayed.
  • SBA-Pin has a wrong naming on the diagnosis page I/O State.
