Module | Description |
|---|---|
Local AI - Platform Service | Local AI is now a first-class platform service. New Local AI tile on the Data Servers page (alongside OPC Server, DataHub, MQTT Broker, AI MCP) with a structured |
configuration dialog (URL, Model, Authorization, Auth Value, Headers) and a live reachability indicator (Reachable / Unreachable / Invalid URL / Auth required). |

UNS - Industrial Ontology | The Unified Namespace is now industrial-ontology-aware. UserTypes, Tags, and member definitions |
DisplayText, Labels, SourceIri, BaseUserType, Attributes)carry semantic metadata fields for display text, labels, and ontology source links. New Designer importer reads RDF/OWL files into UserTypes and Tags. Solution → Export tab exports the UNS in RDF/JSON, JSON-LD, Turtle, or N-Triples (W3C RDF formats) or in FrameworX-native multi-file JSON. One-click Relationship Graph button on the Asset Tree produces shareable Mermaid visual reports. Note: importer in 10.1.5 reads RDF/JSON only; JSON-LD / Turtle / N-Triples readers ship in a follow-up release. | |

Web APIs / Data Explorer | New WebData module unifies external API consumption: REST clients with full verb support (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH), GraphQL queries, and MCP client access from inside the FrameworX runtime — call other MCP servers from Scripts, Tasks, or Displays. New |
WebData Tools tab in the Data Explorer (Designer) with schema-aware editors and per-row contextual actions for live testing. |
Datasets / Protocols / Historian - MongoDB Integration | MongoDB ships as a native, fully-integrated platform connector with four roles in a single driver: Device protocol for direct collection reads/writes, UNS TagProvider for dynamic tag population, Historian StorageLocation for time-series storage, and Dataset provider with SQL-subset query support and JSON directives. |
Devices / TagProvider / Historian - QuestDB Time-Series Integration | QuestDB ships as a native time-series platform connector with three roles in a single driver: Device protocol for direct table column reads/writes, UNS TagProvider for dynamic tag population (column-type-aware), and Historian StorageLocation for high-throughput append-style time-series storage via ILP/HTTP. SQL Dataset queries against historized data work natively through the existing PostgreSQL Dataset Provider with the |

full Designer theming. Covers the most common |
query shapes against any Dataset DB connection. | |
Displays - Enhancements | TRadialGauge: new unified portable gauge control — a single control replaces three legacy circular gauges; portable across WPF and HTML5 |
. Four presets (Full / SemiCircle / CenterValue / BandedRange) |
StartValueLink / EndValueLink for and tag-driven range boundaries. Legacy controls remain |
available. Display Connectors: |

Item | Description | Workaround |
|---|---|---|
Industrial Ontology import — non-RDF/JSON formats | Importer in 10.1.5 reads RDF/JSON only. JSON-LD, Turtle, and N-Triples readers ship in a follow-up release backed by dotNetRDF. | Use RDF/JSON for import. Export supports all four formats. |
OpenSilver / OPC-UA on .NET 10 (provisional — pending verification) | OpenSilver and OPC-UA library compatibility on .NET 10 verification is still in progress for some HTML5 rendering scenarios. | Continue using the .NET 8 build for affected HTML5 deployments if issues are observed; targeted for the first 10.1.5.x patch. |
