2Embedcom anuncia la disponibilidad de la versión de firmware 2.6.5 para los dispositivos AVL de Falcom.

El nuevo firmware, para dispositivos con FLASH de 8MB, incluye las siguientes mejoras:

• GSM
  • GSM communication detection robustness increased
  • audio profile configuration errors are ignored when initializing GSM
  • SIM card contacting optimized
  • GSM reset after 5 minutes for card holder without SIM present PIN
• GPRS
  • Re-check network GPRS availability without waiting for GSM.eCellChange
  • DNS timeout is working optimized
  • GPRS class parameter optimized for power efficiency
  • if a specific multiplex channel is busy after restart, modem is restarted automatically and correctly initialized
• PFAL
  • Sys.Device.ChargeSleep implemented to allow the device to charge its internal battery (if available) in sleep mode
  • GSM.VoiceCall.SendDTMF added
  • IEEE.IOBox0.CalibrateMin0
  • IEEE.IOBox0.CalibrateVoltage0=12.1234
  • GPS.Nav.Distance.Load added to load the current distance counter from non-volatile memory.
  • GSM.GPRS.State 'connected' is displayed correctly now (sometimes was displayed as 'disconnecting' before)
• Alarm Interface
  • Alarm.Info considers hidden alarms correctly now
• Dynamic entries
  • &(IOBOX_ANAX,Y) added
  • fast serial data event alarm execution
• Configuration
  • MOTION.BEARING added
• Events
  • IO.BEARING.e added
• System
  • multiplex mode optimized
  • Watchdog reset optimized
  • after Factory Reset: time to detect GSM optimized
• IEEE
  • action strings corrected
• BIOS
  • BIOS 1.7 integrated
  • BIOS restore behaves as expected now, device restarts with reason of update reset, not ExtPower
  • Supports Sys.Device.ChargeSleep= to charge the internal (if available) when the AVL device its configured with DEVICE.BAT.CHARGEMODE=auto.

A new firmware version (2.5.12_RC7) is also available for 2MB-FLASH devices:

• GSM detection behavior optimized for critically discharged batteries
• GPRS connection is not restarted when losing GSM registration
• GPRS security improved for blocked MUX channel after startup
• Remote update settings adapted to allow keeping of configuration for larger compressed firmware, i.e. (FW version 2.6.5 on AVL devices with 8MB FLASH)
• Audio profile configuration errors are ignored during GSM initialization
• opselection adapted to FW version 2.6.5
• DNS timeouts are working as expected
• TCP client autoconnect setting is read correctly now (auto and manual connect works)
• Emergency sleep works now as expected
• Alarm.Info considers hidden alarms correctly now
• History: correct delta-time parsing of motorway record
• System time correccted when disabling GPS engine (system time continues counting now - no time freeze anymore)
• Whitelist increased to 100 entries
  • GSM.EXT.WHITELIST contains 50 entries now (it has to be configured before OPSELECTION)
  • Entries of GSM.EXT.WHITELIST are added to OPSELECTION for achieving up to 100 operators
