Bosch Solution Link 2.3.4 Release Notes


  • Added Support for 8 Digit Panel Serial Number
Previously, the Customer detail form only allowed entering serial numbers of up to 6 digits in length. Due to serial numbers soon crossing the six-digit threshold this field now allows serial numbers of up to 8 digits.
Eight digit panel serial numbers may now be entered
  • Viewing Peripheral List Form while Connected Fix
If the Peripheral List form was displayed and closed under panel view a connection to a panel would not be possible until exiting and re-entering panel view. Bosch Solution Link would report connection could not be made while in fact it was connected to a panel. This has now been fixed.
  • Prevention of unwanted status change in Interactive
Previously, when the user connected to the panel and navigated to Area Interactive, status could be toggled via the Enter or Space key before interactive Area data was fully loaded. This issue has now been fixed.
  • RFID Migration Fix for Bosch Solution-64 to Solution 6000-IP Panels
Previously, when migrating Bosch Solution 6000 panels to Bosch Solution 6000-IP the RFID information stored under Panel Users and Inputs form would be corrupted. This has now been fixed.
  • RFID Migration Fix for Bosch Solution 6000 to Solution 6000-IP Panels
Previously, when migrating Bosch Solution 6000 panels to Bosch Solution 6000-IP the RFID information stored under Panel Users and Inputs form would be corrupted. This has now been fixed.
  • New 'Serial STU' Transmission Format Option for Bosch Solution 6000-IP Panels
A new transmission format, 'Serial STU', has been added for Bosch Solution 6000-IP panels. Transmission formats can be set in the Comms tab in the Panel form. This option is available from revision 3.02.00 onwards.
  • Top Bar Download Menu Now Working
The top bar download menu now works and can be used to download data to the panel.
  • Customer Detail Information Hidden when Adding
    New Customers using Filters Fix
When filtering was applied from Customer Summary view, adding new customers outside of the filter scope will hide the customer (until the filter is cleared). For the installer this would appear that the new customer was not added. Now, when adding a new customer the filter is disabled.
  • Panel Form Showing Connect when going back to Panel
    from Interactive Form Fix
When connected to a Bosch Solution 6000 or Bosch Solution 6000-IP panel, and returning from the Interactive form, the connect button will revert its status to 'Connect'. This has now been fixed.
  • Panel Log Flagging Area 8 and Above Events as Invalid Fix
Panel log events for Bosch Solution 6000 and Bosch Solution 6000-IP were flagging events for Area 8 and above as invalid. This has now been fixed.
  • Scene Countdown Option Error when Launching Scene Assistant
Scene countdowns ('C' character in scene) were being allowed to be entered for panel revisions which do not yet support this feature resulting in an error when launching the scene assistant. This has now been fixed.
  • Incorrect Error Message when Checking for Updates
If updates failed to load the error message would not show the cause of error. Full information about the cause of the error is now displayed.
  • Fix to Password Capitalisation for New Operators
If a new operator was added, their password would be stored in capitals regardless of how it was entered. This has now been fixed.
  • Keypad Menu Numbers Visible in Panel Forms Tree View
Keypad menu numbers can now be displayed by clicking Tools > Show Menu Numbers from the top menu of the Panel form. This helps associate tree view items with actual menu locations in the keypad. For example, in Users tree view for menu option 'User Name', when menu numbers are enabled, this value is displayed as 'User Name [M140]', where M140 is the menu number for User Name in the keypad.
  • Fix to Changes in Custom Text for Keypad Screen in System
Changes made to Custom Text for the Colour Keypad Screen were not being highlighted after an upload. Changes are now highlighted.
  • Fix to Tree View Items Mismatch for Ethernet and Wi-Fi Modules
Bosch Solution 6000 and Solution 6000-IP panels, under the Comms tab, were showing heading mismatches between items in the tree view and section headings for the Ethernet and Wi-Fi boxes. Mismatches have now been corrected.
  • Operator Name Now Displayed in Users Summary Report
The operator name was not being displayed in Users Summary Report, this has been corrected.
  • Null Modem Emulators Now Correctly Interpreted
Null modem emulators which create virtual serial ports (COM) such as 'com0com' were not correctly interpreted in Bosch Solution Link. This has now been fixed.
  • Installer ID Cleared when Database is Deleted
As security, the default installer ID is cleared when the database is deleted and recreated. The default installer ID can be set from Tools > Preferences from the Main Menu.
  • Corrected Handling of Event Log Sequence Wrap Around
Previously when the internal sequence number restarted from 0 after wrapped around from its maximum value of 65,535, duplicate event records were being loaded into the database, this has now been fixed.

The detail view of Panel Devices was showing ‘Module Mac Address’ instead of ‘Mac Address’; the title ‘IPRS Address’ has also be changed to ‘SSID’.
  • Added support for Macro option in Scenes
Macros can now be selected in Scenes. For example, entering M1 in scene will execute Macro 1.

Area commands in Scenes now support the comma (,) and dash (-) range characters. For example, entering A1-3 is equivalant to entering A1&A2&A3, and entering A2-4,6 is equivalent to entering A2&A3&A4&A6.
If editing Scenes via the Scene Assistant click the '123' button to manually select scenes. The 'CLR' button will clear multiple Area selection and revert to single selection.
Area range selection is available for Bosch Solution 6000 panels from revision 2.53.80 onwards, and Bosch Solution 6000-IP panels revision 3.00.72 onwards.
Clicking the '123' button will launch the Area Range Select form
  • Holiday Periods Increased from 8 to 16
Holiday periods have increased from 8 to 16. This allows greater flexibility in assigning holiday periods for Bosch alarm panels. This feature is available for Bosch Solution 6000 and Bosch Solution 6000-IP panels revision 3.00.64 onwards. Holidays can now also be programmed using the Holiday and Update Assistants. The Holiday Assistant allows selecting public and regional holidays for Australia, New Zealand, Italy and Greece.

  • Changing MyAlarm Region when Adding Customer Overwriting Existing Customer Fix
When adding a new customer in Bosch Solution Link and changing the MyAlarm region from default, it would cause the new customer to overwrite details of the last viewed/edited customer instead of being added as intended. This issue has now been fixed.
  • Software Signing
Bosch Solution Link Alarm Software and support software are now digitally software signed. Software signing ensures software has not been tampered with or modified from the original form.
  • Grid Column Lock/Unlock Feating Added for Improved Panel Naviation
The name column in panel summary view can now be locked and unlocked. This feature is available by clicking the Tools top menu or by right-mouse clicking over the summary grid. Locking the name column makes it easier to configure items in summary view as the name reference is always visible regardless of horizontal scroll position. When this column is locked, the value can only be changed by first unlocking the column via the top menu and popup menu, or by editing the value in detail view. Lock and unlock states can be individually set per summary grid as well as per panel type. Lock state information is also persistent across sessions. This feature is available for Bosch Solution 6000 and Bosch Solution 6000-IP panels.
New Column Lock/Unlock MenuItems for Panel Navigation
  • Removal of the IP Resolution Server (IPRS) Service
The IP Resolution Server (IPRS) has been decommissioned. This service was used by supported alarm panels to provide their public IP address to Solution Link, aiding connections where the alarm panel is behind a dynamic public IP. The IPRS functionality has been superseded by MyAlarm, as a result, controls in the Customer Detail form of Solution Link such as 'Update' and 'Use Static IP Connected' have been removed.
