Update API database interface

Database news
We have updated our API interface to version 2. This new interface makes it easier for you to access the database, especially if you access our data from behind a firewall. The legacy format requires a token that consists the sender IP. We compare this sender IP with the remote IP we see from our server. If you are behind a firewall, it may be difficult for you to determine the IP of your interface to the web.
Version 2 uses a static hash code which is unique for each data client. You find your api hash code in My sentix (see attached documentation for a detailed description). If you want to switch to the new API, simply change the current token to this static hash value.
We treat version 1 as legacy. It will be nevertheless supported at least until September 30th, 2019. We recommend to update your existing code as soon as possible to the new API format.
If you use our DLL to access the API, you find an updated version here: http://bit.ly/2NsHwpD
