Hello,

With the newest version of Gurux, I am receiving the following error (in a popup window) when trying to update a meter using ImageTransfer class:

Input string was not in a correct format

I am using a eigth-char string for the identification with the ASCII box ticked.

The popup window appears indefinitely and in fact I need to close Gurux with ctrl-alt-supr because it became uncontrollable.

The previous version does not have this problem.

What did you changed in the validation of identification text box?

Thanks.

Hello,

Hello,

Thank you for pointing this out. The reason for this is we added Macro Editor and it was causing problem with image update. The size of the test image was different than yours and this problem never occurred. This is now fixed. Update to the newest version.
