New features

The most significant addition to the 2022.1 release is the availability of Embed, Embed SE, and Embed Basic as 64-bit applications. 

Additionally, the new eDrives add-on module, available as a separate purchase and install, provides a highly efficient environment covering all phases of developing control systems for electric drives.

The table below summarizes the new features in 2022.1. Note that the Code Generation features are included in Embed and Embed Basic, but not Embed SE.
