Firmware 1.5 and 1.8 configurations comparison

Description

Since 1.5 firmware version some configuration parameters stopped existing, new ones were added, others simply changed their name. All these changes might be a problem when you want to import old configuration file into WCC Lite with a new firmware. This article is aimed to provide differences between different firmware versions for such protocols as Modbus Master, IEC 60870­5­103 Master and Internal Data.
