Revision History
----------------

This revision history applies to both the SCSI Term Server
and EtherLite product lines.

11/13/1999 - v7.5

    - ST-1032 only.  The ST-1032 hardware is being modified to 
      use a Qlogic 216 SCSI controller running from a 40mhz clock.
      The firmware was modified to detect the hardware change
      and to configure the SCSI controller accordingly.

09/07/1999 - v7.4

    - The firmware was not correctly reporting multiple command
      errors on the FAS_RECV command.  This was corrected.  This

    - The firmware was modified to validate the Max_Buf field
      in the FAS_FLOW_CTRL command and to return a parameter
      error if it is out of range.

    - Corrected a problem with the low and high watermark checks
      which prevented the drivers from setting the Max_Buf field
      to the maximum size.

      (Note to users: The above changes are primarily for driver
       development and debugging.)

    - ST-1032 only.  Increased the number of SCSI buffers from 6 to
      12.  When pushing a large amount of data through the unit, we
      were seeing SCSI_BUSY errors, which is caused by the unit not
      having enough buffers.

08/24/1999 - v7.3

    - EL-2 and EL-2.2 only.  Increased the max number of host
      connections from 2 to 6.


08/09/1999 - v7.2

    - Added support for ST Micro and Micronix flash EPROM
      devices.  (All products)

    - Corrected a problem with TCP error recovery.  The unit
      would recover, but after a possibly long delay.
      (All EtherLite products)

    - Corrected a problem with network retry limit error
      handling.  Garbage packets may be sent, or in rare
      cases, the Ethernet controller may lock up.  
      (EL-2, EL-8+, EL-16, EL-32)

07/01/1999 - v7.1

    - Added support for new the EL-2-EIA485 product.

    - Firmware was modified to disable automatic flow control
      modes when the host disables a port.  (EL-2, EL-160, EL-162
      ST-1002S, ST-1008S, ST-1400B, ST1800B, ST-1616B)

10/30/1998 - v7.0

    - Initial Digi International Release.
