Re: [Flexradio] ANNOUNCEMENT: POWERSDR v2.1.5 OFFICIAL RELEASE

2011-07-23 Thread Ray, K9DUR 
Stan,

If you start PowerSDR without powering up your radio first, you will run in
Demo mode.  This actually constitutes a separate "radio".  Also, you may
have more than one Flex radio, like a FLEX-5000 & a FLEX-1500 for example.

If you have ever used more than one radio (including demo mode), then
PowerSDR displays a small window on startup, the "Radio Chooser", which
allows you to select which radio you want to use.  The new red "x" allows
you to remove radios from the list.  For example, if you forget & start
PowerSDR without turning on your radio first, you may want to remove the
Demo mode radio the next time you start PowerSDR.

If you have never used more than one radio, then the "Radio Chooser" window
does not appear.

73, Ray, K9DUR

Stan:

It only appears when you have more than one FlexRadio used with
the same computer.  You obviously need to buy several additional FlexRadios
so you can see and appreciate this feature.

Sorry Dave.  We wish we could do everything in one release, but that is 
not feasible.


In regards to item #2, it is helpful for people who have one radio and 
accidentally start another instance of PowerSDR.


And for #3, there was no requirement to create a new database for 
release 2.1.5 unless you were upgrading from 1.18.6 or a beta version of 
2.0.x.  See item #6 in the PowerSDR 2.X SOFTWARE INSTALLATION 
RECOMMENDATIONS AND GUIDELINES section of the release notes.


When there are schema changes to the DB, it is a best practice rebuild a 
DB to ensure the most stable operation of the radio.  When this 
situation exists, we explicitly say that in the release notes.


BTW, Have you looked into Ray's Data Transfer utility?  It only takes a 
few minutes to replace things like TX profiles and such.

Dear FlexRadio customers:


FlexRadio is pleased to announce the new Official Release of 
PowerSDR(TM)

v2.1.5 is now available for immediate download from our website.

PowerSDR 2.1 adds significant feature and performance enhancements 
over the
prior official release to all models including the FLEX-5000A, 
FLEX-5000C,
FLEX-VU5K upgrades, FLEX-3000, FLEX-1500, and SDR-1000.  We recommend 
that

all customers upgrade to v2.1.5.

The files can be downloaded at:

PowerSDR v2.1.5 Integrated Installer / Setup Suite:
http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=371

PowerSDR 2.1.5 Release Notes:
http://support.flex-radio.com/Downloads.aspx?id=372


While the improvements are too numerous to detail, the following is a 
list

of major changes since the previous official release, PowerSDR v2.0.22:



1. There is now an optional installation of the new FlexControl™ driver.
Important: Please read the FlexControl Installation Errata Sheet 
regarding

FlexControl use with Virtual Serial Port software.

2. FM has been completely redesigned including CTCSS tones, improved
modulation/demodulation, soft limiting, FM squelch and more.

3. FM now has a dedicated Repeater Mode that allows you to set 
positive and
negative offsets along with the frequency offset.  Split mode is no 
longer

needed to operate FM repeaters.  For more information, refer to the KB
article How to Use FM Repeater Mode (
http://kc.flexradio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50501.aspx)

4. We've added a new and improved MEMORY form that integrates with 
the new
FM Repeater Mode. For more information, refer to the KB article How 
to Use

the Memory Form (http://kc.flexradio.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50500.aspx)

5. FM mode has a new mode specific control panel that allows you to 
select

Memory channels from the console.

6. Full duplex when receiving on VFOA when transmitting on VFOB is now
supported.  Previously, full duplex was only supported when receiving on
VFOB while transmitting on VFOA.  This feature is usefule for SO2R on 
the
FLEX-5000 and satellite cross-band duplex on the FLEX-5000 with 
FLEX-VU5K

installed.

7. Added FLEX-5000 RX2 wave record/playback.

8. A Remove button (red X) is now provided on the Radio Chooser panel to
allow easier radio start up maintenance.


Thanks to so many of you who have continued to provide constructive 
feedback

during the development process.   We would like to express our special
appreciation to our internal alpha/beta team for their tireless 
testing of

internal releases.


Enjoy,

Greg
