The pin out for RS422 signals on the filter print for E20 and E26 differs from the pin out on the E7. The Rx+ is switched with the Rx- and the Tx+ is switched with the Tx-. The only consequence is that the same cable can't be used on E7 and the E20-series. From filter print version 3 (DB8001/3) the mapping is correct.<br /> | The pin out for RS422 signals on the filter print for E20 and E26 differs from the pin out on the E7.

Previous Release - AlphaCom 10.4x - Release Notes
Next Release - AlphaCom 11.00 - 11.01 - Release Notes
This document provides the release notes for AlphaCom 10.6 with incremental bug fix releases. The release notes for AlphaCom 10.6 describe new features, improvements and issues fixed after AlphaCom 10.4.
Software in production: AMC 10.20
Software released date: 2007-04-12
Note 1: We sometimes do bug fixes in older versions while working with a new version. You can’t read the list version by version, and always assume that a correction is included in the next. Be aware of high release numbers, e.g. 06.05 vs. 07.01. Check version dates, and also comments for each version.
Note 2: For each software version the NVRAM version is listed.
If the NVRAM version is different, the AMC board must be cold started, and then you must do a SendAll from AlphaPro to restore the configuration.

If a $CONN message immediately followed by a $DISCON_ST message was sent to a station already in conversation the involved station could hang and result in a system reset.
Large station list in AlphaWeb
If the number of stations in the exchange was greater than approx. 400 the station list in AlphaWeb would not show correct information for the last station.
Enhancement
Dial tone on Trunk calls to SIP
When calling a SIP trunk call with collection of digits the default dial tone is not turned on after finish of digit collection. Delayed set-up on the SIP side would result in a (long) continuous dial tone before the connection was established.
AMC 10.60.3.7(2010-01-27)
Release: Official, available on request /opt/amc/bin/amcd NVRAM version 10.50.
System upgrade file:
alpha_sys_10_60_3_7.tbz2
Precautions:
alpha_sys_10_51.tbz2 must be installed.
AlphaPro 1028 or later must be used due to WACS crash caused by to large nvram size when using older versions.
Errors Corrected
BZ 315 IP station fails UK style ringing tone from SIP
The alternative ringing pattern and tone used to indicate incoming call from SIP was not available on the IP stations.
Enhancement
To avoid compatibly problems with the AlphaNet changes done in 10.60.3.6 a safety filter is added to AlphaNet data routing. This will inhibit critical issues with old and new nodes in a transit routed AlphaNet. Old node will not receive Alternative routing and broadcast messages able to triggering faults in the AlphaNet data router. However due to the fixed faults in the AlphaNet routing system it is still recommended to update all nodes in a transit system.
AMC 10.60.3.6(2010-01-21)
Release: Please use 10.60.3.7 or newer. /opt/amc/bin/amcd NVRAM version 10.50.

Incompatible changes are made to the AlphaNet protocol in the Network layer header related to forwarding of broadcasts and re-routed messages. In networks where transit routing is used, all nodes should be upgraded at once.
Please use 10.60.3.7 or newer to avoid critical problems in incompatibility.
Errors Corrected

If a $DISCON_ST or $C was not sent to det refered stations local node and the refered station was configured as a global number, the physical no = node number of the global number would be reset. Now the $C and $DISCON_ST (and M press and release) are forwarded to the correct node.
BZ 307 Slave module in contant reset after set to Factory Default
If an slave module is factory reset, the slave module could end up in an reset loop. Fixed. (A workaround is to disconnect master, the reset will stop. Then program a DAK key from any station on the slave module, then reconnect master)

Line Echo Canceller (LEC) not started
LEC missing in two situations:
1. When calling from "SIP as station" to analogue station using handset.
2. Dialing AlphaNet area code, then lifting handset, then call directory number did not start LEC thus echo on the AlphaNet link.
SIP as station, station hang
"SIP as station" clients can lock up in conversation. The SIP station will not be released until reset of the exchange.
Enhancement
BZ 125 Dim IP-display back light in idle
ex_profile.glob_const.backlight_dim = 16
For value 0 no dimming of the back light is preformed. Other value is used to decrease: current level - backlight_dim level.
The available level is from 0 to 16. If backlight_dim > current level then backlight level will be 0 (backlight OFF).

Now possible to do updates on release version.
Log System (Syslog)
The logging is handled by the syslog-ng log daemon. This can be configured to route the logs to different media.
The log can be stored on on-board flash, or sent over the network with different protocols.
Known Issues
Large log files on on-board FLASH
The log is stored on a limited sized Flash partition by a file system. Routines to handle larger log amounts, like automatic clean up of older files have been implemented, but we still experience problems if the log rates get to large. These problems occur before a theoretical log rate versus free space analysis, mainly because of file system issues with a small number of available flash sectors. This file system factor makes it difficult to make an accurate estimate of handled log rates so the following is based on experience:
Limits:
Log rates lesser than 1440 events a day (an average of one each minute) should be handled with no problem. Log rates of 17280 events a day (one each 5th second) is experienced to give problems.
Guideline:
If you are above 1440 events a day you should evaluate to use the Remote Syslog option, and turn off the Local Filesystem Log. If you are closer to the 17280 events log rate we strongly advise to use only the Remote Syslog option. If your system are logging above the 1440 events a day to the filesystem you should regularly monitor the logs.
Note:
From AlphaCom 10.23 a log limiter on the System and Debug log is implemented, allowing for a maximum of 60 events a hour. If this limit is reached, it will be notified by a log message. Because of this limit the above guidline will only apply to the Statistics log.
Hardware Drivers
Rtpdaemon
/opt/amc/bin/rtpdaemon
Rtpdaemon is a user mode service which handle the RTP audio streams. It receives control commands from the AMCD main application on a control socket (/tmp/rtpd). Rtpdaemon transfers and receives RTP packets via standard Linux network sockets. Rtpdaemon packs and unpacks RTP packets. Received packets are buffered before play out. It transfers and receives serialized audio data to the DSP via a DSP driver.

Hardware Versions
AMC hardware versions
Known problems AMC hardware 8000/4
None as of now
Known problems AMC hardware 8000/2
Issue 2747: RCI not supported on ACE7:
RCI not supported on ACE7. The RCI signals on P1-c19 and P1-c22 are terminated in test points on AMC-IP.
Issue 2741: Redundancy control from APC:
The redundancy control system from APC is not working (software and hardware).
Issue 2787: AMC serial port: No RX, no data on TX:
It turns out that the RS232-drivers on the AMC-IP-board have an automatic shutdown when it detects missing received data (illegal voltage levels). This will be fixed in future hardware version, but it can be fixed on current hardware by a minor modification. Remove R698 and R695. The pins must be connected to Vcc (3,3V).
Issue 2806: “Temperature Alarm" in ACE.7:
This problem is probably related to the fact that the AMC-IP board never had a connection to the over-temp. signal from the ACE7 backplane. This is related to the problems with RCIs from the same backplane.
AMC Filter board
Issue 2723: RS422/RS485 Signal Pinning:
The pin out for RS422 signals on the filter print for E20 and E26 differs from the pin out on the E7. The Rx+ is switched with the Rx- and the Tx+ is switched with the Tx-. The only consequence is that the same cable can't be used on E7 and the E20-series. From filter print version 3 (DB8001/3) the mapping is correct.
