1ptrans.gif (44 bytes) TRsSim Software  -  Change Log:

Vrs 1.32.560   -   March 5, 2008

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Display the delay from going off-hook (or line flash) to the start of the first dialed DTMF digit.  The delay time is displayed on the main control panel as well as the dialing logs.   
2.  Add a programmable delay time for the network tone (if any) configured to start once the TE goes off-hook.  Previously, the tone would start immediately following the off-hook.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Add a new setting in the 'FSK Detection Settings' window that optionally ignores FSK data in either the on-hook or off-hook state.
2.  Fix a bug that prevented (under certain situations) a display update if DTMF warning limits where changed.  The missing display update could have resulted in warnings being shown when they should not have been (or vice versa).
3.  Add the ability to configure the AI-5120 to record data without the TRsSim software connected.  For remote data collection, the AI-5120 can be configured to output event and waveform data directly to its USB or RS-232 port on power up.  If the data is recorded to a file (using 'Ai5120logger.exe' or other similar application), the event and waveform data can be recovered by the TRsSim software.
4.  Fix a bug introduced in vrs 1.31 that prevented the logging and exporting of event data.

Scripting:
1.  Add various properties and functions to access the AI-7280/AI-80 dialing log.  This log contains DTMF dialed digits, pulse dialing digits, and line flash information.
2.  Add property to modify the delay time from when a TE goes off-hook to when a network tone is started.

Vrs 1.31.545   -   January 8, 2008

General:
1.  Change the location of where various files are stored in order to increase compatibility with Windows Vista and allow for easier sharing between multiple installations of the TRsSim software.
2.  Support loading of configuration and script project files from the command line.  
3.  Configuration, Data Recorder, and Script Project files are only saved in the compressed file format.  The older non-compressed format can still be used when loading files.

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Fix a bug that prevented the load of a configuration file if the maximum number of ringing patterns had been reached.
2.  Support the use of a 'null' start code for DTMF Caller ID messages.
3.  Support the new features available in  version 3 of the AI-7280 firmware. This includes an expanded line voltage, loop current, and DC ringing offset voltage range.  The added ITU O.41 weighing filter can be used in the 'Signal Analysis/Generation' mode.
4.  Ringing patterns can be specified with a programmable DC offset voltage.
5.  Caller ID ringing can be specified with a programmable DC offset voltage. 
6.  Fix a bug that prevented the proper display of Greek SMS characters.
7.  Display a warning icon when:  i) the ring generator output may be clipped based on the wave shape settings, output level, and DC offset voltage, ii) off-hook loop current does not match specified loop current due to high loop resistance and/or low line voltage settings, iii)  Caller ID impairment settings conflict with signaling timing.
8.  Add ability to copy existing ringing patterns, tone definitions, or Caller ID messages when creating a new one.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Fix bug in analysis of FSK waveforms which could cause a terminal error.
2.  Allow waveform analysis on a loaded configuration file when operating in 'demo' mode.

Scripting:
1.  Change the script development GUI to a single window environment.
2.  Support multiple project development along with script controlled project switching.
3.  Support device script projects.  These script projects run programs directly on the AI-80/5120/7280 hardware.
4.  Modify the operation of the 'Popup Message Window' to allow detection of selected events while the window is still visible and not only when it has been closed.  Also modify the operation of the 'IsTopWindow' property.  If active, the window is only 'top' for application and not the entire desktop.  This change prevents conflicts with other applications and modal or system wide message boxes.
5.  Fix bug that caused incorrect 'table' data to be saved in script project files.
6.  Add function to enable or disable the auto-increment FSK Caller ID parameter feature.

Vrs 1.27.490   -   January 22, 2007

Scripting:
1.  Add script properties and functions giving access to a PC's serial communication ports.
2.  Add script properties and functions for controlling the playback of a wave file.

Vrs 1.27.489   -   January 9, 2007

General:
1.  Fix setup problem with version 1.27.483.  The previous setup package included an older version of the AiWBex1.dll by mistake. 

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Provided better support for displaying unicode characters used in SMS.
2.  Modify operation of user defined ringing wave shape such that the RMS level and DC offset are always normalized before loading the data points into the AI-7280.
3.  Fix bug when generating metering pulses.  The 'count' setting was not updated sometimes when the 'continuous' mode was enabled.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Fix a bug that caused compressed ringing (ring trip interval) from being detected as pulse dialing digits (under certain conditions of ringing wave shape, level, and DC offset).
2.  Fix a bug that could cause false detection of DTMF, FSK, or network tones during ringing.

Vrs 1.27.483   -   November 15, 2005 

General:
1.  Include the contents of script tables when saving configuration or script project files.
2.  Add option for automatic checks of software or firmware updates on a regular basis.
3.  Improve the speed at which large configuration files can be loaded or saved.  

Scripting:
1.  Support line continuation.  If a script line ends with the '_' character, the next line is assumed to be part of the current line.
2.  Block commenting.  Selecting a block of text and pressing Ctrl-D will comment the entire text block.
3.  Expand the IF-THEN-ELSE structure to include ELSEIF <expression> THEN statements.
4.  Fix documentation mistakes with the Rnd() function and the Event.Goto.Index() function.
5.  Add script properties to the PopUpMsg box for increased functionality.
6.  Add script properties and functions to modify and control various AI-5120 settings.

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Fix timing bug that caused an extension to any wait blocks following FSK data if impairments where enabled.

1.  Measure and report the crest factor when ringing is detected.
2.  Improve sample rate conversion algorithm to minimize distortion introduced when exporting waveforms with different sample rates.
3.  Allow more than 10 digits to be part of a SDMF Caller ID message.
4.  Check for invalid day/month combinations for Caller ID date/time parameters.  For example, February 30th is not a valid day/month combination.
5.  Remember the scroll bar position when viewing the event list so when returning to an event list view, the previous scroll bar position is used.
6.  During long ring trip durations, suppress the false detection of pulse dialed digits.
7.  Expand the tone templates to include limits on maximum level, maximum duration, and a detection mode setting.
8.  Support the detection of tone sequences.  A sequence is a series of tone(s) that can occur one after the other.
9.  Improve the display update rate when viewing a large number of waveforms.
10.  Add a setting that enables an adjustable high pass filter prior to performing any THD+N measurements made during FSK, DTMF, and CAS/DTAS analysis.
11.  Add option to automatically perform the waveform analysis function on any DTMF digits detected.
12.  Double clicking the mouse in the Data Recorder waveform view causes the mouse mode to toggle between 'select' and 'pan'.
13.  In a new 'Tone Analysis' that finds and analyzes all tones present in a recorded waveform.
14.  Add a 'Quick Setup' window.  This window combines a number of common settings in a single window for each access.
15.  Quick waveform record.  By clicking the 'record' status bar icon, the 5120 starts an immediate waveform recording.  
16.  Display an warning icon if any event measurements are outside specified limits, or the waveform analysis reported a warning condition.  
17.  If no FSK signal is detected following a manually initiated analysis, give an option to display the FSK decoder waveform and any data bytes detected within the waveform.
18.  Display FSK byte level errors and framing errors on the waveform view.
19.  Cache event data in order to speed up the event list display when a large number of events have been captured.
20.  Show 'Report' icon for CAS/DTAS events once the waveform analysis as been performed.
21.  Fix bugs in event search:  a) incorrect comparison test with 'DTMF String', b) criteria copy did not transfer the measurement index field properly.  c) incorrect criteria where selected in the event search drop-down list if another criteria was deleted.

Vrs 1.24.395   -   July 6, 2006

General:
1.  When adding USB capable devices, dynamically show which devices are currently connected to the PC.
2.  Default location for configuration files is now the '\configs\ sub-directory.
3.  Remember the directory a configuration file or script file was accessed from.  Save the directory information between program runs.
4.  If a communication error is encountered with a device, present an option to attempt a re-connection.  
5.  Fixed a bug that prevented a switch in the AI-5120's mode of operation (from TRsSim to Instrument Suite) if multiple USB devices were connected to the PC.
6.  Remember device window positions when performing a restoration of settings or loading a configuration file (that requires a device re-load).
7.  Prevent two device windows from overlaying exactly on top of each other when the second device is added.

Scripting:
1.  Make the LOCAL keyword optional.  When declaring variables, if no variable type is specified, it is assumed to be local.
2.  Allow variable assignments at declaration time for LOCAL and GLOBAL variables.  For example:  'Numeric TwoPi = 3.1415926 * 2', declares the variable and assigns it in a single statement.
3.  Add properties and functions to read binary and text files.
4.  Add properties and functions to write and control low level device scripts.  

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Support Japanese NTT Type II CID.  A Caller ID signaling sequence is now included for generating Type II CID.  Note that only the AI-7280 can execute the Type II signaling sequence.
2.  Add a 41h message type for NTT CID.  The type 41h message is used for Type II NTT CID.  Messages can be set for auto-selection.  This changes the message type value between 40h and 41h depending if a Type I or Type II CID is being sent.
3.  Add new NTT CID message parameter 'Calling Number Extended Information'.
4.  In 'Signal Analysis & Generation' mode, add a new action that generates back to back line reversals.
5.  In 'Signal Analysis & Generation' mode, add the ability to write short scripts that execute directly on the AI-80 or AI-7280.
6.  For the AI-7280, use a band pass filter when measuring the SMS FSK message levels.  This fixes a problem where DC voltage shifts (line reversals or such) close to FSK messages upset the level meter to such a large degree that timing measurement accuracy becomes poor.  The band pass filter helps to removes the effect of large DC voltage shifts.
7.  Fixed a bug causing a terminal error if more than 25 Caller ID signaling blocks where inserted into a sequence.
8.  Display Type II Caller ID 'extension-in-use' check timing information in the Data Viewer window.  In addition, the ACK start and stop times can be shown when using the AI-7280 (not supported with the AI-80).
9.  When configuring a network tone to start upon an off-hook condition, only update the AI-80 or AI-7280 flash memory if a change to the tone setting is made. 
10.  For parameter sweep graphs, limit the minimum vertical span to 1 dB.
11.  Add a new setting for signal generator termination impedance of 'Source Z'.  This setting assumes the line termination impedance will be exactly the same as the line source impedance setting.
12.  Fixed a bug that occured when deleting CID signaling elements that have a branch.  If the lower portion was deleted, the branch element above was not correctly modified to reflect the change.
13.  Fixed a bug that caused the TRsSim software to try to generate a Type I CID (on-hook), when the line state was off-hook.  This occurred when the 'Reset.All' function was used in a script program and the current line state was off-hook.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  If only a single AI-5120 is connected, default to a new display view.  The 'Docked Window' mode automatically opens two linked Data Viewer windows that automatically display a list of detected events in one window and the captured waveforms in the second window.  The windows are automatically resized to the application window size.  This display mode can be enabled or disabled from a command selection under the 'Window' menu.
2.  Modified CID Summary report view as follows:
  a)  Lock header to the top of the window.
  b)  Scroll bar position is not reset when selecting different CID transmissions.
  c)  Ensure waveform icon is refreshed in case the waveform download does
       finish until after the display updates.
  d)  Add a waveform icon that displays the entire CID transmission (all elements).
  e)  If in 'docked window mode', the CID waveforms are displayed in the 2nd
       window.  
3.  For the FSK waveform analysis, fixed a distortion measurement error that occurred when the mark level and frequency could not be measured.  In such a case, a warning message is included in the report.
4.  Fixed a bug that could cause an extra channel seizure bit being reported (for FSK messages).
5.  For the event list view, add an option to always 'snap to last' event.  If enabled, once additional events are detected, the Data Viewer window always ensures they are displayed.
6.  Add two tool bar buttons to snap to the next or previous waveforms.  When clicked a search is made for the next or previous waveform and if found, the waveform(s) are displayed.
7.  Changes to the Navigation bar:
  a)  Hovering the mouse over a waveform displays a pop-up of the waveforms.
  b)  Left clicking on any waveform causes that waveform to be displayed.
  c)  Right clicking enters a local panning mode.  Hold the mouse button down
       and drag left or right to pan over a range 10 times the currently displayed
       time span.
8.  Fixed bug when time shifting waveforms via cursor positions.  The time delta was incorrectly calculated as B-A instead of A-B.
9.  Add two additional cursor commands to move either cursor A or cursor B to the screen center.
10.  Coping and moving waveforms.  A new 'Copy & Float' menu command makes a copy of a selected waveform and floats it on the screen.  As the time scale is panned, the floating waveform does not move.  To move the floating waveform, click on the center screen icons to move vertically, horizontally, or in both axis together.  To fix the floating waveform in time and vertical position, select the 'Lock Position' command under the Waveform menu.
11.  To toggle the event detection and waveform capture enable, click the mouse on the green/red light icon on the main window.  This is a shortcut to clicking the 'More' button and selecting 'Freeze/Resume Detection & Recording'.
12.  If more than 5000 events are detected, the 'Event Find' window can display them in groups of 5000 by using the drop-down list box at the bottom of the window.
13.  The redraw speed of the event list has been greatly increased.  Scrolling now occurs at a much faster rate.
14.  Complex event searches can be created.  Searches can specify multiple events with various logical relationships.  In addition, criteria can be added to event  measurements.  To define searches, select the 'Event Search Criteria' from the 'Settings' menu.  Once searches are defined, the results can be viewed by selecting 'Search Results' from the 'View' menu.
15.  Add the option to measure THD+N from the main window level meter.  It is enabled by selecting 'Measure THD+N' when the units button is clicked.  Once enabled, the AI-5120 automatically tunes its notch filter to the strongest signal in the range of 80 to 10000 Hz.
16.  For the AC Signal event, add two detection modes.  They are minimum level, and minimum level with frequency.  
17.  If the waveform analysis optional component is enabled, then waveform captures due to AC Signal events will cause an automatic measurement to be made of the signal's frequency and level.  These measurements are annotated on the waveform display and shown in the event list.  In addition, the measurements may be exported or logged to a file.
18.  Add the option to export waveforms at different sample rates.

General:
1.  Fixed bug that caused all pages to be printed when only a subset was specified.

Scripting:
1.  Fixed bug that caused table data to be saved within configuration files.  

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Add a new setting to control the rear panel BNC output gain for the AI-7280.
2.  Include DTMF digit timing information when exporting or logging dialing data for the AI-7280. 
3.  Add a new setting to specify the signal level units when exporting or logging data. Units can be either dBm (default), dBV, or mVrms.
4.  Fixed bug that caused invalid Caller ID messages if the parameter data contained a single quotation mark character.
5.  Fixed bug that prevented detection of DTMF digits with a frequency error greater than 1.5% after a change to the detection threshold setting.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Fixed bug in network tone analysis that occurred when very short tone bursts were analyzed.

Vrs 1.20.356   -   August 24, 2005

General:
1.  When saving configuration files, they can be setup to only load between a specified range of dates.  Date information is verified by using an internet time server.

Scripting:
1.  A new group of properties and functions can be used to create tables.  These tables may be used to present test results in a tabular format, or as data arrays for use by script programs.
2.  Fixed bug in Mid() and Asc() functions.  These two functions were broken when error trapping code had been previously added.

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Modify the range of non-printable characters used when creating SMS protocol 1 transfer layer messages.  This fixed a problem when using Chinese windows which may not be able to display the complete range of ANSI characters.
2.  Add a Caller ID setting that adjusts the FSK bit timing skew. 
3.  When creating AI-80 stand alone SMS programs, include the ability to generate a dial tone when the TE goes off-hook in order to dial the SC and submit a message.
4.  Fixed bug that always forced the Advanced Caller ID option to be enabled when operating in demonstration mode.
5.  Lower the minimum DTMF digit detect level to -30 dBm.
6.  Fixed bug that prevented network tone frequency and level characteristics from being updated if the tone was configured to automatically start upon the TE going off-hook.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Save the DTMF twist level to the output log.
2.  Fixed bug in network tone analysis that caused incorrect data being reported if multiple tone bursts with different frequency components were detected.

Vrs 1.18.347   -   June 21, 2005

General:
1.  The AI-80, AI-7280, or AI-5120 device letter assigned by TRsSim can be changed in the Hardware Setup window.
2.  Reduce communication timeout when establishing a connection.

Scripting:
1.  Script editor automatically indents text lines when ENTER is pressed. Also, pressing TAB indents a selected block of text to the next tab stop. Likewise pressing TAB & SHIFT together moves a selected block of text back one tab stop.
2.  Add an option in the General Settings window that clears all script logs when script programs are executed.

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  For ETSI Protocol 1 SMS, the Message Generator window now supports the usage of 16 bit reference numbers when concatenating long messages.
2.  For ETSI Protocol 1 SMS, allow alpha-numeric addresses. If the type field is set to a value between D0h and DFh, the address is encoded using the GSM 7-bit character set. If any other type value is used, the address is encoded as semi-octets.
3.  Add an option in the Caller ID Signal Settings window that adjusts the time reference point for ACK detection to the end of the ACK signal. By default, the time reference point is the moment the ACK signal is detected. Note, this setting is only applicable when using the AI-7280.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Increases the maximum number of frequencies in a network tone to four and allows a wider frequency range from 300 Hz to 5000 Hz. Note that a single tone frequency between 800 and 1180 Hz can not be detected. Requires AI-5120 firmware version of 2.01 or greater.
2.  When event and waveform capture is off-line, the indicator on the status bar blinks.  

Vrs 1.17.328   -   May 11, 2005

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Supports detection of network tones at a lower signal level (-36 dBV / tone). 

Vrs 1.16.326   -   April 12, 2005

General:
1.  Allow control of the TRsSim software via files (cmdin.txt / cmdout.txt). The command syntax is the same as for the remote TCP/IP connection.
2.  Add menu command to check for software/firmware version updates.  

Scripting:
1.  Add scripting support for the AI-5120.
2.  Add properties to access the FSK based Caller ID message type offset and length offset settings.
3.  Add Rnd() function for generating random numbers.
4.  Add properties and functions to access the ETSI SMS protocol 2 message generator window.

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Add wave file playback control element for the Caller ID signaling sequence.
2.  Bug fix: An error in the FSK script conversion routine prevented the AI-80 (only) from generating the correct FSK message. The multi-byte BYTE commands were not processed correctly.
3.  Add "auto-increment" support for FSK based Caller ID parameter.
4.  Add FSK based Caller ID message type and length offset fields.
5.  Add ETSI SMS protocol 2 message generator window.  Similar to what exists for protocol 1, this window simplifies the task of generating segmented TL messages.
6.  For SMS protocol 1, when displaying the contents of the TP-UD field, show the hex values as well as the text if using the GSM 7-bit char set.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Add option to select the signal level units used to export or log event data. The units can be selected from dBm(600), dBV, or mVrms.

3.  Add the ability to return event and waveform information over a TCP/IP connection.
4.  Add the option to resume event detection upon configuration file load.
5.  Bug Fix:  remove memory leak in waveform analysis module.
6.  Data Recorder window: add two additional digits of timing resolution when using the cursors. Also display 1/|delta|.  
7.  Add a new event type for "Extension In Use Check".  This may occur during a Type II Caller ID transmissions following the CAS/DTAS tone, but before the ACK tone.
8.  Modify waveform navigation in the Data Recorder window. Add navigation bar at the top showing time relationships between all waveforms captured. Add right mouse click popup menu with view history and moving to next/previous events & waveforms. Panning mode entered by clicking new mode button, middle mouse click, or right mouse click AND CTRL button held. When in panning mode, automatically scroll when mouse is moved off the view port. When scrolling left or right and no waveform data exists at the current view, snap to the next/previous waveform based on the scroll direction. 
9.  Be able to specify the analysis range for all waveform analysis types (instead of just DTMF). Now FSK/CAS/DTMF/NT analysis can be performed over a variable range.
10.  Add a new event type for network tone.  Common network tones such as dial, ring back, and busy can now be detected.  Custom templates from 1 to 3 tones can be specified.  Requires AI-5120 firmware version 2.00 or greater along with the TRsSim Waveform Analysis option.
11.  Add an option for adjustable high pass and low pass filters to be engaged during any waveform analysis type.

Vrs 1.13.298   -   January 17, 2005

General:
1.  Support a compressed file format for configuration files (.cfz) and script project files (.spz).  The older uncompressed file format remains supported, however using the compressed format greatly reduces the file size.  When using the AI-5120, the waveform capture file is now included within the compressed file.  A separate capture file (.cap) is no longer produced.
2.  Setup package includes an updated USB driver (version 1.6.20).  

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Bug fix. The DLE character codes within a NTT Caller ID message were not treated correctly.  They should of been automatically duplicated within the message contents.
2.  Reduce the minimum acceptable flash time limit to 50 ms from 100 ms.  This supports testing to shorter flash times.  Note, unless the pulse dialing settings are modified, a short line flash may be interpreted as a single dialing pulse.
3.  Add two Signal I/O options to mute either the BNC audio input or BNC audio output connectors during a Type II (off-hook) Caller ID transmission (AI-7280 only).
4.  Stop performing local syntax checks for USER blocks in the CID signaling sequence. The syntax check prevents using globally defined variables in the USER block, since they are defined elsewhere in the CID signaling program.
5.  Improve response time for terminating network tones when a DTMF digit is dialed (assuming this option is enabled).  The network (dial) tone is now normally terminated before the first DTMF digit finishes.
6.  Support user defined wave shapes for ringing (AI-7280 only).

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  DTMF detection and analysis modifications: 1) lower minimum detect level to -35 dBV, 2) improved ability to detect DTMF in the presence of other tones (ie. dial tone).  Note, requires AI-5120 firmware of 1.05 or greater.

Vrs 1.12.290   -   November 25, 2004

Scripting:
1.  Add properties & functions to modify, add, or remove ringing patterns.
2.  Add properties & functions to modify, and, or remove tone definitions.

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  For ETSI Protocol 1 SMS messages, if the DCS field indicates UCS2 encoding, show the message as text characters instead of hex bytes.
2.  Add options to preserve the telephone interface and signal I/O settings when building an AI-80 standalone SMS program.
3.  Upon completion of a parameter sweep (AI-7280 only), save the measurement results to the file "\log\ParamSweep.txt".
4.  Bug fix.  When multiple TCP/IP/UCP messages are sent in rapid succession. In sufficient delay was inserted between multiple calls to the TE.
5.  Bug fix.  When using the AI-7280, the noise generator would not be enabled for network tones if using the DTMF or MF modes of operation.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  CAS/DTAS analysis is supported with the Waveform Analysis option.  The analysis extracts the CAS/DTAS tone frequencies, levels, THD+N, and timing parameters.
2.  Add a Caller ID summary report view (accessed from under the View menu).  This report summarizes the Caller ID transmission details in a single report.

Vrs 1.12.285   -   November 3, 2004

General:
1.  Remote applications can now control the TRsSim software via a TCP/IP link. For information on this feature, view the help file available by selecting the [Help] [Remote Control] menu command.
2.  Fixed bug preventing the Edit menu commands working with the script editor window.

Scripting:
1.  Double clicking a module in the project view window displays the source code module.
2.  Add "Save Project" menu command to complement the existing "Save As Project" menu command.
3.  Add "Immediate" window (under the "Run" menu). Script commands entered into this window are directly executed. They run in parallel with any other script program execution.
4.  Script modules can be linked to external files. This allows other editors to be used with script projects. To link a file to a module, right click the mouse on the module in the "Script Project" window, and select the "Link to File..." command.
5.  Expand script editor help list capabilities to: i) Show all help items, ii) Find modules or declarations for subs/functions/variables/constants/labels, iii) search help list for keywords, iv) disable help list when using slower PCs.
6.  Add options to adjust script execution speed and whether or not the project should be saved prior to compiling.
7.  Add three new properties that can be read to determine if various program options are enabled (DevA.Options.x).

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  When changing Caller ID types, the last used signaling and message selections are automatically selected..

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Listing for FSK related events (Caller ID, SMS) support different level units (mVrms, dBm, dBV).
2.  Lower minimum DTMF level limits to -25 dBV from -20 dBV.

Vrs 1.11.275   -   October 12, 2004

General:
1.  Add printing page setup option to specify user defined report title or organization name.

Scripting:
1.  Add properties and functions to control all aspects of the Caller ID signaling sequence. Expanded and new script groups are Cid.Delay, Cid.Timing, and Cid.Sig.
2.  Add Cid.Messages.Fsk.Script.AddLine property and Cid.Messages.MDMF.Param.Custom function (allows user defined parameters).
3.  Add Sms.Events.Flags property.   This read only property returns 1 for Rx/Tx phantom message events (if Rx message ignored by SM-SC, or Tx message sent with zero FSK level).
4.  Add Reset() functions.  Used to return various program settings to their default values.
5.  Add ability to show a user definable list of items from the pop-up message window.  See PopUpMsg.List properties and functions in the help file.

AI-7280/AI-80 Specific:
1.  Change all default Caller ID signaling sequences to generate only a single ring following the FSK/DTMF transmission.
2.  For ETSI protocol 2 SMS setups, event definition now supports phantom message transmission (SC sends message with zero FSK level), and ignoring Rx messages (SC ignores the message from the TE). Both of these event options help to simulate event sequences where messages are not received properly (on either side). Sending phantom messages still updates applicable timers, while ignoring Rx messages does not reset, start, or stop any applicable timers.
3.  Bug fix for AI-7280 FSK decoder filter delay nodes.  Fixes a problem that can cause the unit to miss the first FSK message after power up.
4.  Add new "custom" Caller ID MDMF parameter type. Allows user defined type, length, and data bytes. This can be used to test unknown or illegal parameters.  Requires Advanced Caller ID option.
5.  For Telecordia Caller ID type, use the same set of available MDMF parameters for both the Call Setup (80h) and VMWI (82h) message types.    Requires Advanced Caller ID option.
6.  Fix bug in Caller ID Signaling window.  Element insert and delete actions did not always modify the signaling sequence correctly.

AI-5120 Specific:
1.  Fix bug preventing the data bytes from being listed when performing a data layer analysis and the message was not Caller ID or SMS (for example, if receiving less than 3 data bytes).
