Cause:
- Preadjustment values were not available for persistent Results mapping.
- Older Genesis item IDs could resolve to different result variables.
- Meter-specific variables were difficult to find.
Solution:
1. Added preadjustment result storage
- Store common execution metadata and available phase-specific values per slot and test.
- Expose temperature comparison and Completion values in Results.
- Preserve existing measurement execution, timing, parallelism and STOP handling.
2. Improved result selection
- Add Water meter type under the existing Category tab.
- Group available items into Common, Genesis and iPerl.
3. Corrected saved mappings
- Migrate recognized legacy Genesis mappings.
- Store stable item identifiers while preserving existing numeric IDs.
- Mark ambiguous mappings as Review mapping.
- Preserve the one-based Genesis repetition number.
Cause:
- Preadjustment Completion and TBF Q3 calibration results required configurable database persistence.
- Both write operations required diagnostics and simulation support.
Solution:
1. Added independent database writer configurations
- Added PreadjustmentCompletionWriter and Q3CalibrationWriter to gci_config.
- Support SQL commands, stored procedures and parameter mappings.
- Added SQL table creation and verification scripts.
2. Added Preadjustment Completion storage
- Store PCB ID, meter size, amplitude settings, temperature offsets, zero-flow offsets, timestamp and overall result.
- Use captured Completion readout values.
- Preserve the original HTTP reporting.
- Report SQL connection and write status in the corresponding slot diagnostics.
3. Added Q3 calibration storage
- Forward TBF results through GCI Bridge to the GCI database API.
- Store signed deviations and written calibration factors for all three paths.
- Write to SQL after successful calibration register writes and StoreCalibration.
- Include PCB ID and UTC timestamp.
4. Added simulation support
- Generate sample Completion and Q3 records for simulated slots.
- Perform real SQL writes when the corresponding writer is enabled.
- Log connection progress, write outcomes and generated record IDs.
5. Separated calibration and database outcomes
- Preserve meter operation results when database storage fails.
- Expose database write status independently.
6. Increased revision
- Updated revision from 3.9.3146.108 to 3.9.3146.109.
Validation:
- Confirmed successful SQL storage for simulated Completion.
- Confirmed successful Q3 calibration result storage.
ToDo:
- Use the GCI Q3 storage API as the foundation for future migration of Q3 calibration from the direct TBF communication branch to GCI.
Cause:
- Live diagnostics required logging from multiple applications without blocking TBF.
- Shared nlog.config files caused configuration conflicts.
- The original viewer lacked configurable colors and practical log controls.
- Inconsistent diagnostic deployment caused log transfer failures and locked shared DLLs during builds.
Solution:
1. Added universal diagnostic transport
- Added AppDiagnostic.Logging with an NLog target and named-pipe communication.
- Added background buffering and automatic reconnection.
- Registered the diagnostic connector programmatically.
2. Separated diagnostic window lifecycle
- Run AppDiagnostic as an independent process.
- Activate the existing window on repeated launches.
- Keep TBF running when the diagnostic window closes.
3. Corrected diagnostic deployment
- Copy the complete diagnostic output into a dedicated AppDiagnostic subdirectory during build.
- Overwrite existing deployment files to prevent inconsistent versions.
- Validate and launch the executable from that subdirectory with an explicit working directory.
4. Improved the log viewer
- Added configurable substring colors with a palette and live preview.
- Added text, level and application filters.
- Added line wrapping, clipboard actions and log export.
- Added Pause/Resume, Refresh, Clear, auto-scroll and Always on top.
- Added connection and log counters.
- Persist color rules between sessions.
5. Removed legacy dependencies
- Replaced LiveLogCache with structured diagnostic storage.
- Removed AppDiagnostic dependencies on log4net and SharedComponents.
Validation:
- Confirmed successful log transfer when launching AppDiagnostic from TBF.
