New in 1.72
- WebStudio WebApp

The system now provides initial support for OPC UA A&C with our OPC UA client. This is the first implementation of support for OPC UA Events in the system and will be followed up with more optimizations in upcoming releases.
- Honeywell PHD integration
-
A new PHD bridge package has been added to enable connection to Honeywell PHD historians located under Connectors. The PHDbridge package expands the range of packages provided for easy installation through remote Connector services.

The New MQTT Datasource enables you to connect to an MQTT server and subscribe to messages communicated using the MQTT messaging protocol.

- Security Config Display
-
New Security Config display allows for easier visualization and editing of the security references applied to objects. The Security Tab has also been changed to match the Security Config display.
