CURRENT OEE 1.0 USERS: (versions 1.9.x and prior) DO NOT UPGRADE TO THIS VERSION

Upgrading from OEE 1.0 to OEE 2.0 involves multiple steps. Completing the steps incorrectly, or failing to make adequate backups can cause the migration to fail. The Legacy Import documentation is here: Migrating from OEE 1.0 to OEE 2.0.

Current Release

Current: MES 2.0 Platform
The newest platform used by our MES core modules provides the latest support for distributed control, enterprise capability, performance and seamless integration across the modules. Track & Trace and OEE 2.0 now share the same ISA-95 object model providing greater flexibility to support any type of manufacturing process in any industry.

MES Module	Module Version (Click to Download)	Description
Production Module	2.9.3	Required for OEE, T&T, SPC, and Recipe Modules.
OEE Downtime	2.9.3	The Sepasoft OEE Downtime Module empowers manufacturers with actionable data that can help managers reduce operating cost, increase asset utilization, and boost operating efficiency that results in improved profitability.
Track & Trace	2.9.3	The Sepasoft Track & Trace Module manages your inventory in real time. Your system can have the capability to look up where any product has been during its manufacturing process, and where it is now. It records the start and end of each production run in real-time and monitors the status of the materials while being consumed.
Recipe/Changeover	2.9.3	Recipe/Changeover provides an efficient means to manage and select recipes, track variances in recipe values, keep recipes secure, track recipe changes, analyze recipes, and generate recipe reports.
SPC	2.9.3	The Sepasoft SPC software will help you reduce or eliminate late or missing sample collection, inaccurate sample data, and other issues leading to quality problems.
Web Services	2.9.6 SP3	Latest version is 2.9.6 SP3 and can be used with 2.9.2 core modules as this is a utility module. The Sepasoft Web Services Utility Module allows you to easily configure web service operations and data types visually, then invoke web service operations from the HMI, SCADA, or MES system to read data from or write data to ERP or any other system that supports web services.
Instrument Interface	1.9.5 SP2	The Sepasoft Instrument Interface Utility Module will let you capture raw textual data from instrument type devices via serial, text files, OPC devices, and more, enabling you to parse out the meaningful values that can be saved to databases or passed along to other systems.
Barcode Scanner	1.9.5 SP2	The Sepasoft Barcode Utility Module allows you to use barcode scanning capabilities to facilitate material handling, scan a badge to sign off on materials, Master Production Records, Batch Production Records, and other production tasks. Barcode Scanner also includes the ability to hide manufacturing records not in use and has an added option for customers to include their own logos.

2.9.3 Change Notes

Version 2.9.3 SP4 is for Ignition platform 7.9.4 to 7.9.x. Our modules currently are not compatible with Ignition 8.

What is new in 2.9.3?

Performance improvement in both live and historical analysis
Added a method to handle sub-second tag collector updates
MQTT store and forward feature (2.9.3 RC2)
Bug fixes

The MES 2.0 platform release contains the new OEE 2.0 module. All other modules maintain the same functionality as their MES 1.0 counterparts but have been modified to work on the new platform. The Web Services, Barcode Scanner, Instrument Interface and Production Simulator modules from the MES 1.0 suite can be installed alongside these MES 2.0 modules. All other modules need to be upgraded to the 2.0 version. If you are upgrading from any of the MES 2.0 versions, please restart your Gateway after install.
