Prerequisites:

• TPDesign4 3.2.0 build 661 or later, with G4 Support Files version 3.2.42 or later
• Intercom module v1.9 or later (if using with Intercom)
• SIP module 2.11 or later (if using with SIP)

Changes in This Release:

• Support for new 7" and 10" Modero X Touch Panels
• Support for MXA-MP
• Support for custom event notification when a URL resource is loaded
• Support for Secure and DoD Security Modes
• Fix for issue when repeatedly accessing the camera
• Fix for occasional missing first and/or last column of pixels
• Sensor firmware version is now available on Setup pages and in Netlinx Studio

Known Issues:

VIDEO:

• The following streaming video modes are supported: MPEG2 video and MP2/MP3 audio over MPEG2 Transport Streams, and Motion JPEG over HTTP. H.264 Video is not initially supported. Max supported resolution of source stream is 720p (<8Mbps).
• Significant downscaling of video or accelerated Motion JPEG can result in noise, pixelation and/or audio glitches. To improve performance, reduce the resolution of source video if possible, and/or increase the window size on the panel. Also, preserve aspect ratio if possible.
• Hardware accelerated video decoding (MPEG2, MJPEG) windows greater than 1024 pixels in height (in portrait mode) will be truncated to 1024 pixels.
• Using a Motion JPEG defined in the Resource Manager with Dynamo checkbox checked may lead to unexpected results. To use accelerated Motion JPEG in a subpage, you should enable Streaming Video Fill (under State properties in TPD4) and specify the URL (http://username:password@host/path/file.mjpg) in the "Streaming Source" field.
• The only supported camera mode for this release is exported via Micro USB to a PC. The camera can be previewed in the setup pages, but there is a known issue that flipping into and out of preview mode may lead to a loss of video (requiring a reboot to correct). The camera URL should not be used in user pages.

GRAPHICS:

• The Page Curl transition is not supported in this release.
• Any animations present on the destination page will freeze during the transition, then continue (note this is different from MVP-9000i behavior).

Prerequisites: v2.66.21 or later must be installed

Changes in this release:

• Resolved a memory leak issue that could potentially affect the responsiveness of the touch panel, and in some extreme cases cause the touch panel to become unresponsive.

Known Issues:

• The time it takes from cold boot to when the panel displays its first page has significantly increased compared to version v2.66.32 (pre-International Fonts feature). The panel is still loading resources after the first page is displayed further increasing the time for the panel to react to the first button press.
• Some fonts with incorrect or missing cmaps will not render the same on the on the panel as in TPD4.
• Some large projects that used most of the available RAM will no longer load due to a decrease in available RAM to support the new font rendering engine. This typically results in the panel jumping to the setup pages but sometimes results in a black screen.
• Some buttons with active touch will see the button respond to touches in the inactive area.
• Function Show does not show on all buttons.
• Transitioning out of Standby mode can take up to 45 seconds.
• If the panel goes into a low battery shutdown mode while in Standby, the Sleep setting reverts to the minimum value.

Important: Panels with more than 1Gb Compact Flash cards should not be downgraded to any version below 2.86.39. This information can be retrieved via Setup pages (Information - File System), or using telnet - (disk free).

Prerequisites: None.

Changes in this release:

Boot:

• Added support for large (2 GB or greater) Compact Flash Cards.

User Interface:

• New touch calibration algorithm which provides more accuracy and corrects for nonlinear error in the touch overlays. The new algorithm adds more points to the touch calibration.

Setup Pages:

• Added new calibration page compatible with the new touch calibration.

Known Issues:

• When downgrading from 2.86.xx or later to a version of 2.85.xx or earlier a reset of the system settings is required.
• When connecting to the panel via USB (i.e. firmware transfer, panel file download, telnet, etc) the cable should be disconnected *before* a reboot. If it is still connected there is a small possibility that the panel will boot and detect a USB issue and reboot again. This reboot cycle will continue, never leaving the splash screen, until the panel is power cycled or shutdown. This is not a new problem. It has been an issue with the manufacturers USB driver for many years. However, previously the panel would just hang on the splash screen and the panel would require a power cycle. Because we have made things more robust we now try to reboot the panel whereas before we did not. Thus, the error does not get cleared and the reboots continue. A simple power cycle or shutdown using the external buttons will clear this issue.

Prerequisites: v2.4.9 or later must be installed before upgrading

Changes in This Release:

• Resolved a memory leak issue that could potentially affect the responsiveness of the touch panel, and in some extreme cases cause the touch panel to become unresponsive.

Known Issues:

• The time it takes from cold boot to when the panel displays its first page has significantly increased compared to version v2.4.27 (pre-International Fonts feature). The panel is still loading resources after the first page is displayed further increasing the time for the panel to react to the first button press.
• Some fonts with incorrect or missing cmaps will not render the same on the panel as in TPD4.
• Some large projects that used most of the available RAM will no longer load due to a decrease in available RAM to support the new font rendering engine. This typically results in the panel jumping to the setup pages but sometimes results in a black screen.
• Some buttons with active touch will see the button respond to touches in the inactive area.
• Function Show does not show on all buttons.
• Panel will establish a connection to the master when the Master Port Number is 0.
• Panel will sometimes connect to the master but display "Attempting via Ethernet" on the setup pages.

NOTE: Use of the new Connection Utility feature on the setup pages requires master firmware Build 352 or greater.

New Features:

• Increased IR receiver range
• Eliminated pixel noise in video windows

Important: Panels with more than 1Gb Compact Flash cards should not be downgraded to any version below 2.86.26. This information can be retrieved via Setup pages (Information - File System), or using telnet - (disk free).
