Version 10.1.5 (May Release)

Release Date: May 2026
Type: Feature Release

Industrial Ontology

Version 10.1.5 becomes a first-class participant in the industrial semantic ecosystem. Bring RDF and OWL ontologies into your Unified Namespace from the new Ontology Import wizard. Supports W3C standards (RDF, RDFS, OWL 2, SKOS, Dublin Core) and industrial vocabularies (ISA-88, ISA-95, IOF, BFO). Export the UNS as JSON-LD, Turtle, RDF/JSON, or RDF/XML, ready for GraphDB, Stardog, Fuseki, or any ontology store. Round-trip an ontology through FrameworX without loss. Classes become UserTypes, individuals become Tags, containment becomes Asset Tree, cross-links become Reference members, and the return trip is faithful. A new Visual Graph button on the AssetTree renders your namespace as a live diagram for documentation or review.

Modern .NET platform

The FrameworX runtime now ships on .NET 10, unlocking cross-platform deployment across Windows, Linux, and containers. Designer continues on .NET Framework 4.8. 10.1.5 installs side-by-side with 10.1.4 (.NET 8) on the same machine as isolated runtimes — 10.1.4 remains the long-term supported branch for organizations on .NET 8. A new Docker deployment path is documented end-to-end.

AI Designer

Build solutions with AI alongside. DesignerMCP lets AI assistants create tags, alarms, scripts, and displays directly inside Designer. New concurrent-session support lets two assistants drive two different solutions in two Designer instances at the same time, each pinned to its own solution. designer_action adds select_row, scroll, and expand actions; navigation resolves names to IDs at the API boundary. The ConsoleMCP workspace model turns a folder of JSON files into a runnable .dbsln, ready for Git and code review. A new HTTP transport variant of ConsoleMCP (port 10151) lets MCP clients on a Windows host reach a ConsoleMCP instance inside a VM through standard TCP port forwarding.

AI Tutor

Learn Designer by doing. The AI Tutor delivers guided, interactive lessons inside Designer covering UNS modelling, tags, alarms, scripts, and displays. The Tutor reads your automation and programming background at the start of a session and adjusts pace, depth, and examples per lesson. Progress persists across sessions. Complete the 15 lessons in each tier to earn Associate, Professional, and Expert certificates.

AI Runtime

Talk to your live solution. RuntimeMCP opens a runtime surface for AI agents with a new HTTP transport on port 10120 and a Windows Service wrapper, alongside the existing stdio transport. New semantic tools including runtime_search_uns, runtime_get_object_context, runtime_find_by_iri, and runtime_list_by_type let agents find objects by meaning, not by string match. A new runtime_set_target(solution, profile) tool rebinds a live MCP session to any running TServer on the machine — switch solutions or execution profiles mid-session without restarting.

Connectivity

Reach the data where it lives. New GIS and AutoCAD import wizards pull GeoJSON, Shapefile, KML/KMZ, DXF, and DWG files into your UNS as tags, AssetTree folders, and auto-generated Displays. MongoDB arrives as a first-class data source across three roles: Dataset provider, Device protocol with UNS TagProvider, and Historian Storage Location. The bundled Value Simulator now registers as a UNS TagProvider as well, surfacing simulated signals directly in the Namespace. The unified WebData surface brings REST, GraphQL, and MCP Client calls into one model, with a new WebData Tools tab in Data Explorer for testing requests without leaving Designer. The FlowTimebaseDB driver adds high-rate time-series storage. ControlLogix adds L5K import, Phoenix gains TLS/SSL enforcement, and the protocol catalog keeps growing.

Multi-language IDE

Solution Center and Designer are now fully localizable. Version 10.1.5 ships with twelve bundled interface languages: English, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, French, German, Italian, Polish, Turkish, Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese, and Korean. Pick a language on the Welcome page and the full IDE follows. Additional locales are produced for partner channels through an AI-augmented translation flow that preserves product nouns, protocol names, and field identifiers in English across every locale. Runtime HMI display localization remains per-client through the Displays Localization module, unchanged and fully supported.

Refreshed display controls

The component library gets new breadth and a long-overdue unification. A unified RadialGauge control replaces the three legacy circular gauges with four presets (Full, Semi-circle, Center Value, Banded Range) and tag-bindable per-range boundaries — 100% Tatsoft source, compiles cleanly to WebAssembly for HTML5 clients. Symbols and Groups can now carry an attached Legend with a single checkbox; legends auto-position, follow their parent, and support independent repositioning. The Display Connector tool returns to the Drawing toolbar with extend, clipboard, undo, and delete support.

IT and Operations

Moving solutions between versions and rolling out the runtime at enterprise scale both get first-class tooling. A new UpgradeSolution.exe command-line utility upgrades .dbsln files from 10.1.4 to 10.1.5 with versioned backups preserved automatically. Opening an older solution in the IDE writes the same rollback-safe backup before migration runs. A new IT Deployment RunBook walks administrators through silent install, Windows service registration, network ports, updates and rollback, and automation across SCCM, Intune, Ansible, and PowerShell DSC.

Beyond these highlights, 10.1.5 delivers performance tuning, feature enhancements, and dozens of fixes across Designer, Displays, Runtime, and HTML5. See the full release notes for the complete list.
