INTRODUCTION

    This is a production release of firmware for the ConnectPort Display M22

    ConnectPort is a customizable network enabled video display hub.
    Its Display Over IP technology allows standard video displays to be
    combined with other peripheral devices and placed anywhere on the
    Local Area Network (LAN) - without a locally attached host PC or
    thin client. ConnectPort supports standard terminal emulation,
    enabling simple migration from legacy terminal-based systems. It
    also supports the Virtual Network Computing (VNC) protocols, allowing
    remote access and control of a computer over the network or internet.

ENHANCEMENTS

    1. Front panel reset.  To reset CPD, press and hold the front panel button
       (just to the right of the USB connectors) until the LEDs start blinking.
       Release the button and press and hold it again until the LEDs start
       blinking rapidly and CPD will reset.

    2. Front panel factory defaults restore.  In case it is necessary to restore
       CPD to its original default settings, hold the front panel button while
       power-cycling CPD.  The unit “hangs” while the button is held and the 
       LEDs will all be off.  Release the button and CPD will restore its factory
       defaults.

    3. Improved support for 1366x768@60Hz video resolution. 


BUG FIXES

    1. Serial port transmitter occasionally stopped and required a reset to recover.
       Fixed. 

    2. Reduced the maximum number of serial port characters (from 16 to 2)
       transmitted after being flow-controlled (both hardware and software)
       from a remote serial device.  This eliminates receive overruns on remote
       devices with small receiver buffers.

    3. Firmware upgrades occasionally failed. Fixed. 

    4. Improved network reliability. 

    5. Web server displayed static IP addresses backwards.  Fixed.

    6. CPD, as shipped with its factory default configuration, could not be 
       configured via Device Discovery aaplication without a password.  Fixed.

    
KNOWN ISSUES

    Units configured to use static IP addresses (instead of DHCP) will have to
    be reconfigured if upgrading from the previous 1.01 EOS release.


DOCUMENTATION ERRATA

    None.
