### Modernized User Interface of HTML Monitor

Natural Version 9.2.2 introduces a modernized User Interface for the HTML Monitor to conform with modern browser standards.

## NaturalONE

For information on changes, enhancements and new features available with NaturalONE, see the Release Notes in the NaturalONE documentation in the Documentation section of Software AG's Empower web site at https://empower.softwareag.com/.

## Natural RPC (Remote Procedure Call)

With Natural Version 9.2.2, an enhanced Natural RPC Version 9.2.2 is delivered which introduces the following changes and enhancements:

- Running a Natural RPC Server without ICS

- Steplib Handling for NATRPCxx

- Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)

### Running a Natural RPC Server without ICS

A Natural RPC server may run without the installation of ICS (International Components for Unicode for Software AG). Encoded passwords passed to the RPC server can still be converted to the code page of the RPC server.

Software AG still recommends to install ICS in an RPC server environment to have full Unicode support available.

### Steplib Handling for NATRPCxx

A search in the defined steplibs is now performed when the Natural RPC user exits NATRPC01, NATRPC02, or NATRPC03 are executed.

### Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)

The following Natural RPC-specific APIs are new in the SYSEXT system library or have changed:

API | Task | Description
--- | --- | ---
`USR9204N` (new) | Send command to RPC server. | The RPC API sends a send-command request with the sequence number to the EntireX Broker. The command transports a subprogram or an RPC command with the sequence number for an RPC server (or all sequence numbers of an RPC service). The EntireX Broker 11.0 with CIS version 13 or higher is required. For detailed information, see Natural RPC > Operating a Natural RPC Environment > Sending Command to RPC Server.

## Natural Web I/O Interface
