Prerequisites:

• TPDesign4 3.2.0 build 660 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:

• None (Initial Release)

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:

• Occasionally, the last and/or first column of pixels may be missing.
• 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).

SECURITY:

• Security mode cannot be changed to "Secure" or "DoD". Only "Standard" mode is supported for this release.

Programming Information:

New or Modified Send Commands:
--Streaming Video--
^SDM-<addressArray>,<stateArray>,<URL>
Starts or stops a streaming session. Stream starts if a valid URL is specified and stops if server URL string is empty (or invalid).

URL must adhere to the syntax:

• udp://<ip or hostname>:<portNumber> where IP could be 0.0.0.0 (unicast), or multicast address and port number. Port number must be an unused port from 1-65535
• http://<ip or hostname>/url for motion jpeg
• cam://local for activating the camera (you'll see color bars for right now as a place holder)

Examples:
Send_command 10001:2:0, '^SDM-10,2,udp://234.4.0.4:5500' ;# Sets ON state to play video on multicast address
send_command 10001:2:0, '^SDM-10,1,cam://local' ;# Sets OFF state to play camera
send_command 10001:2:0, '^SDM-10,1,stop' ;# Stop playing the current video
send_command 10001:2:0, '^SDM-10,1,' ;# Stop playing the current video

^DMM-<audioMute>,<videoMute>,<url>
Streaming audio/video mute<<

audioMute = (0=unmute|1=mute) - mute's the audio for <url>
url is a valid ^SDM url that is already in the playing state.

--Subpages--
^SSH-<vt addr range>,<name>,<optional position>,<optional time>
Subpage show command

This command will perform one of three different operations based on the following conditions:

1. If the named subpage is hidden in the set associated with the viewer button it will be shown in the anchor position.
2. If the named subpage is not present in the set it will be added to the set and shown in the anchor position.
3. If the named subpage is already present in the set and is not hidden then the viewer button will move it to the anchor position. The anchor position is the location on the subpage viewer button specified by its weighting. This will either be left, center or right for horizontal subpage viewer buttons or top, center or bottom for vertical subpage viewer buttons. Surrounding subpages are relocated on the viewer button as needed to accommodate the described operations.

vt addr range - Specifies the address(es) of the subpage viewer button to be modified.
name - Specifies the name of the subpage to be shown or added.
position - Specifies where to add (or show) the named subpage in the set with 0 representing the beginning of the set. If this value is left out (or set to 65535) then the weighting value for the viewer button is used to place the new subpage, i.e. left/top, center or right/bottom. When using the weighting locations, set insertion positions can vary based on the current onscreen locations of existing subpages.
time - Can range from 0 to 30 and represents tenths of a second. This is the amount of time used to move the subpages around when subpages are added or removed from a button.

^SHD-<vt addr range>,<name>,<optional time>
Subpage show command

This command will hide named subpage and relocate the surrounding subpages as necessary to close the gap. If the subpage to be hidden is currently offscreen then it is removed without any other motion on the subpage viewer button. Parameter definitions are the same as for the subpage show command.

^STG-<vt addr range>,<name>,<optional position>,<optional time>
Subpage show command

If the named subpage is hidden, then this command activates a subpage show command. If the named subpage is present, then a subpage hide command is activated. Parameter definitions are the same as for the subpage show command.

^SDR-<vt addr range>,<enable state>,<optional hold time>
Subpage dynamic reorder enable

This command can be used to enable or disable dynamic reordering for a given viewer button or set of viewer buttons. It can also be used to set the amount of time to wait before initiating the single finger reorder time.

enable state - This value can be either "on" or "ON" or "1" to enable dynamic reordering for the specified viewer button(s). Any other value will disable dynamic reordering for the specified viewer button(s).

hold time - This value is in tenths of a second. The value will be rounded up to the next highest quarter of a second. This is the amount of time that the user must press and hold a subpage with a single finger to trigger a dynamic reordering operation.

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).
