Management of connected devices in the web settings

When restarting home center service and you go directly to the Home page: the empty buttons will be filled as soon as the statuses are all read by home center (the buttons remained grey when you were to fast)
Many internal improvements to have better stability when many systems are linked to Home center
For example:
Music devices (Sonos, Roberts, Harman, JBL, Marshall speakers)
and 2N Intercom devices
and IR Global caché
and Air-conditioning (through HMS Intesis: Daikin, Mitsubishi, Fujitsu, Panasonic, LG, Toshiba)
This includes a ‘self-restart’ system when Home center ‘stops working’ after a few weeks or months
In the Android app / Web app buttons can now have different colors as well!
These colors can now also be set in the Zone editor in the web interface.
Many improvements have been made to the Zone manager and Zone editor
EMAIL and SMS
Add values from the devices as variables in your SMS and Mail (body and text)
Important note:
SMS: new Clickatell implementations are not working due to an API change by Clickatell. This will be resolved in the next version
For email settings: some customers noticed it is no longer possible to send emails via Telenet (Belgium). Our advice is to use the GMAIL App-passwords as explained in the Email guide that you find in the manuals and downloads on the module!
LUXOM
On connection loss due to bad network, and eventual recovery after some longer time (minutes or hours) statuses were not updated in Home center, now they are updated automatically.
Improvements

Stability for connection with Air-conditioning modules
In this version scaling issues in the different clients were resolved! If you made special modifications to a zone to tweak the scaling on a iPad or Android, you may need to correct the location of the buttons!
iPad app
For the iPad app: there was a scaling issue, so the buttons weren’t on exactly the same location as in de Android app and Windows app. This is resolved.
Android app / webbrowser

In the configuration, to better reflect there actual function:

HISv2: An occasion crash could occur so the Home center was no longer running on the module (it was caused by network changes which messes with the operation system)

When Home center restarts, now a correct ‘up time’ is shown on the status page
The Time sync page (for putting the time on the bus – Velbus only) is more intuitive
Removing Old Components sometimes did not work (in a situation where a SD card is plugged in for logging and the simulator)
The Presence SIMULATOR can be activated and deactivated via the Logic module!
The logging info by the Logic module should be more readable and more info is added to help better build the rules.
In the logic module: the number of available rules and number of used rules is shown.
