Maintenance Release V41 R9A

[Christoph Giesselink]

At the Allschwil meeting 2018 I presented a major update of V41 to Release 9 with Virtual HP-IL support. At this time not all wanted features had been implemented.

So the AUTO IDY support was missing enabling the usage of the "Print" and "Advance" buttons in the HP82162A simulation inside pyILPER 1.7.2. But this feature is disabled by default, because in some cases the AUTO IDY frames are annoying, escpecially in the case of HP-IL development.

Because of a design limitation of the PIL-Box in Controller Mode (a HP-IL controller like V41 R9 or Emu71/Win is running on the PC), IDY frames are not shown on the real HP-IL side and so the buttons of a real printer will not work.

Some issues in connection with the Time Modul also gone.

The new version R9A is available on Warrens V41 product page.
