- Better, more flexible support for handling IEC 61400-25 controls
- Support for simultaneous close of IEC 61850 Clients
Provided several customization enhancements for IEC 60870-5, Modbus, and DNP protocols including more flexible control over when and how quality and time stamps change
Added better support and also greater customization for IEC 60870-5 -101 and -104 Slave reset requests

v3.0 [Sep 4, 2014]
- Added a thread pool to distribute load to multiple threads and improve utilization of multi-core processors
- Optimized memory allocation further to improve the stability and robustness of the Gateway
- Improved startup time and re-connect times for many protocols and scenarios that the Gateway supports
- Added multiple features and capabilities to the IEC 61850, DNP3, OPC, and other protocol components of the Gateway (for example, the Gateway now supports Double Bit Binary Inputs for DNP3 and has increased support for Report Control blocks in IEC 61850)
- Added mapping ability between IEC 60870-6 (ICCP/TASE.2) command mdo's and ODBC mdo's
- Updated OpenSSL library to version 1.0.1g that protects against Heart Bleed vulnerability
- Added diagnostics related to database updates and input processing
- Added ability for polled point sets to be read as an array in 61850, significantly improving the reading of large polled point sets.
