Errors corrected

(BZ = Bugzilla reference number)

LCD font

Font size 8x15 is now printed correctly. Height was incorrectly 16 pixels.

Simplex audio

In simplex (e.g. remote M-key), the loudspeaker audio was unstable. Improved by turning off the DSP's NLP (Non Linear Processor) in this mode.

Ethernet disconnection issue

If network cable was disconnected and an event (input) occurred immediately after that, the disconnection would not be detected until after about 20 minutes. Fixed.

AlphaCom reconnection attempt

If the AlphaCom didn't have IP station licenses the station would not connect, and neither make an attempt to reconnect. Now it will try to reconnect and will come up when the IP station licenses are installed. (Previous workaround: Restart the IP station or AlphaCom.)

BZ 34: IP sub: Don't work after AMC-IP change

When swapping the AlphaCom AMC boards between two configured with the same IP address (redundancy), the IP station would not reconnect properly. Fixed.

Functional changes / Enhancement

LCD shows privacy state

A large "PRIVATE" or "OPEN" icon is displayed on LCD when privacy state is changed, and a "P" icon is blinking in top right corner in "PRIVATE" state. Hold C-key for 2 seconds in idle to change state.

M-key supported

M-key audio control ("auo" message) now supported.

LCD cursor

Added support for LCD cursor.

TCP disconnection

Changed behavior upon TCP disconnection. Now the relay output, station LED and any playing tone is reset upon disconnection.

LCD supports foreign language characters

Added support for new characters: Norwegian, German, Hebrew, etc.
