For Backup of more than one device int one BackupSet, you need to activate one of the Software Licenses RSLBR20 or RSLRB30. (Please contact your local LYNX representative for details.) NOTE that you need to activate RELEASE 3.0.0 or later in the RCT 5030 / RCP 5000 to backup devices on these servers. - Added User Interface for DVD 5420 (SDI / ASI distribution amplifier with reclocking / inversion) - Added User Interface for CAD 5132 (Analog Video to SDI converter with Framesync) - Added User Interface for SVD 5082 (SDI Input Switch 2*8 -> 2) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Added general stability by fixing several minor weaknesses in the internal processing. - Fixed bug #626: "PDX 3010: Assignment of outputs not possible in GUI" The GUI of the PDX 3010 would not allow correct assignments of AES putput channels to channels. - Fixed bug #632: MiniModule on ServiceAdapter was not recognized if Simulation mode had been activated before. - Fixed bug #649: "strange UI status text if SVD 5012 in bypass" The status text in the user interface (GUI / RCP 5000) was confusing when the unit was running in "bypass mode". - Fixed bug #658: "SDI input missing" event available for just one channel The Events-Tab in the GUI of the CAD 3002 showed only events for one of the two channels. - Fixed bug #661: PTG 3010/PTG 5010: specifying shorter overlay text. When reducing a longer overlay text to a shorter one, the remaining characters would have to be explicitly specified as space-characters in order to delete them from the resulting overlay string. While this workaround worked ok, it is still inconvenient. - Fixed bug #662: "PMX 3312/3313 does not show events of AudioADC" Input-lost Events from Audio-ADC combo are not shown in GUI of PMX 3312 / PMX 3313 - Fixed bug #667: "GUI block diagram of DVA 3120 does not cover DVA 3120L" Replaced the block diagram for the DVA 3120 in the GUI, so that the DVA 3120L is also covered by the illustration. - Fixed bug #677: "CMX 5110: Switching to Manual Gain not complete" Switching between "Auto-Gain" and "Manual-Gain" (luminance and/or chrominance) in the GUI of the CMX 5110 did not complete all required internal changes. Some automatic behaviour remained in action. ------------------------------------------------ Compatible to Device Server (RCT 5030/RCP 5000) Release 2.2.3 and up. Recommended Device Server with this GUI Release: 3.0.0 ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.8.0 (build 150, 24.Oct.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added User Interface for PVD 5000 (same as PVD 5000G Framesynchronizer, without GPI input) - Added User Interface for CMX 5110 (Deembedder with Analog Video and Analog Audio Output) - Added User Interface for DVD 5620 (MultiFormat HDTV/SDTV Dual Input SDI Distribution Amplifier with 2x4 crossbar) - Added User Interface for PMX 5212/PMX 5214 (BS509500) (new AES Embedders, based on PCB BS509500) - Added User Interface for SVD 5012 (SDI Change-Over Switch) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug in PVD50x0 GUI: If switching input by GPI, the current input was not correctly displayed by the (disabled) selection box. - Fixed bug #647: PTG 3010/PTG 5010 does not correctly show 20/24 Bit Audio Status. There was a communication problem that prevented the 20/24 Bit Audio status from being displayed correctly at startup. Any change was correctly written to the device. The device function was not affected in any way. ------------------------------------------------ Compatible to Device Server (RCT 5030/RCP 5000) Release 2.2.3 and up. Recommended Device Server with this GUI Release: 2.8.0 ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.7.1 (build 149, 16.Sept.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #638: SNMP checkboxes in GUI grayed out while Option enabled. The c3_local GU frontend did not correctly recognize the presence of the RCT 5030 SW-Options, and thus did not show the "SNMP Traps" checkboxes in a read-write state as appropriate. - Fixed bug #632: Initialization of serial port does not init all parameters Fixed another rare instance under which the serial port could potentially be initialized to incorrect parameters. ------------------------------------------------ can be connected to RCT 5030 RELEASE 2.2.3 (build 118) and up. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.7.0 (build 148, 30.Aug.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for DVD 3620 (MultiFormat HDTV/SDTV Dual Input SDI Distribution Amplifier with 2x4 crossbar) - Introduction of the new Remote Control Interface. All devices can be controlled by an external application through the LYNX remote control interface. This is a simple ASCII-based protocol over UDP/IP that allows a third party application / script to control any setting in the LYNX control system. A copy of the detailed description of this remote interface can be requested with a short email to support@lynx-technik.com. - The application is guaranteed to be started only once on a computer. The attempt to start it a second time will simply bring the already running instance to the foreground, propagating command line options as appropriate (see below). - New commandline option -select can be used to request that the application selects the GUI of a specific module (by position). The actual position has to be specified using the addressing scheme of the Remote Control Interface. Example, adressing local COMport 1, stack 0, frame 1, slot 5: c3_local.exe -select :0.0.1.5 Example, adressing remote COMport 1, stack 4, frame 0, slot 7: c3_local.exe -select 192.168.1.160:0.4.0.7 - New commandline option -popup offers similar capabilities as option -select (described above). The requested GUI page will be displayed in a separate popup-window instead of the main window. This allows for control of multiple devices at once. After application startup, any Device-GUI can be sent to a new popup window through the appropriate option from the "Device" pulldown menu. - The passwords for a remote connection (to RCT 5030) can optionally be *not* stored persistently. If this option is activated, the password needs to be re-entered every time the connection is used. - Leaving a textual entry field in the GUI by TAB-key or by clicking the mouse outside the entry field applies the new value to the device. In older versions, the described action used to discard the new value and revert to the original value. ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #602: sync source of CAD 5121/CAD 5122 is identical for both channels. The sync source of CAD 5121/CAD 5122 (intern/extern/off) is always identical for channels 1 and 2. The client display (PC-GUI / RCP 5000) was not guaranteed to be updated accordingly. - Fixed bug #607: application can terminate when pressing F5 in GUI of PVD 5010 / RCT 5020 / RCT 5030 - Fixed bug #620: setting overlay text in PTG 3010 / PTG 5010 GUI does not work correctly. This bug existed in releases 2.6.2 and 2.6.3 - Fixed bug #626: PTG 3010: Assignment of outputs not possible in GUI clicking one of the radio-buttons to re-assign outputs would jump back to the original position after ~2 seconds. - Fixed bug #629: CDA VideoDA-Converters: YLevel Betacam leads to wrong UVLevels. On the Gain-Page ofall CDA VideoDA-Converters: Setting the YLevel to "Betacam" lead to wrong UVLevels. Now the "Betacam" YLevel makes the UVLevels read-only and implicitly sets them correctly. - Fixed bug #632: Initialization of serial port does not init all parameters Under certain cirumstances, the code that initializes the serial ports (COM1...8) does not make all required settings in a 100% correct way. This can lead to communication failures, such as slow response or inconsistent display of current status of individual boards. - Fixed bug: Display of false temperature/voltage peak values for PSUs. The temperature and voltage displays of the PSU units could display false peak values due to data transmission errors. These errors are now filtered out and prevented from display. ------------------------------------------------ can be connected to RCT 5030 RELEASE 2.2.3 (build 118) and up. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.6.3 (build 140, 24.June.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #604: incorrect read of data from the PAD 5212 could lead to wrong display values on the client (c3_local / rcp). NOTE that this bug is in the server part of the software. I.e. if the c3_local is connected to the PAD 5212 through a RCT 5030 per LAN, then the appropriate patch- release 2.6.3 needs to be installed in the RCT 5030 also. - Fixed bug #605: Under certain conditions, modifying a value on the GUI could lead to instability in the client-part of the software. This issue exists only in the user interface. The signal processing devices are not affected. ------------------------------------------------ can be connected to RCT 5030 RELEASE 2.2.3 (build 118) and up. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.6.2 (build 139, 21.June.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #601: "F5-Update of version info of Controllers incorrect" Pressing F5 in the GUI of the RCT 5010 / RCT 5020 / RCT 5030 would lead to an incorrect display of the version information in the GUI. - fix bug that would cause the device tree to display an incomplete list of devices from a remote server (RCT 5030) under heavy network load. Now the list will always be completed after a couple of seconds, depending on available network resources. - fix bug that would intermittendly logout the GUI from a remote server every once in a while. This was dependent on general network traffic and a relogin would be done immediately. Fixed now. A spontaneous logout happens only if the server cannot be reached for a significant amount of time. ------------------------------------------------ can be connected to RCT 5030 RELEASE 2.2.3 (build 118) and up. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.6.1 (build 138, 09.June.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - New config variable GUI_EXPERT_MODE_PASSWORD can be supplied to protect access to the contents of the "Expert" Tab in individual device GUIs. The default is empty, which means that the "Expert" Tab is accessible by default. ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #599: "Series 3000 modules behind RCT 5010 not displayed correctly" The tree display of Series 3000 modules behind an RCT 5010 would not be correctly sorted. - fix bug in display of current status of SW options in GUI. Some SW options would be displayed as "not active" even if activated correctly. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.6.0 (build 137, 08.June.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - General rework of major parts of the software architecture, resulting in a significant increase in overall stability and performance. - More than one remote-server can be connected at the same time, even in parallel to devices on the local COM-ports. - Enable the SIMULATION mode by default. The "local COM ports" panel in the GUI provides a checkbox named "Simulation". Enabling this option will simulate the complete product range of LYNX devices. The simulation includes the Event-Subsystem, so that Device-specific events can be simulated in all consequences. NOTE however, that there might be particular situations where the simulated device does not behave 100% like the real counterpart. Please contact you local representative in case of any questions. - The GUI-layout (i.e. position of splitter lines) is persistently stored between sessions. ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #590: "GUI CAD 5320: left/right indication crossed" The indication of input channel status was crossed between left and right channel on the GUI of the CAD 5320. NOTE: When using a RCT 5030 (network connection, rather than local COM ports) you also need to update the RCT 5030 to version 2.6.0 for this issue to be gone completely. - fix bug #594: "DVA 5120/DVA 3120: GUI initializes EQ sliders to wrong position" The GUI of the DVA 5120/DVA 3120 somtimes initializes the two EQ sliders to an incorrect position. This is a pure display issue; the actual values in the board are ok. - fix bug #596: "PAD 5212: delay values are displayed as 16" The GUI of the PAD 5212 (when connected to remote RCT 5030) could display incorrect values for the msec-part of the delay and negative delay. This was a pure display problem of the GUI. The actual delay in the PAD 5212 was never changed in any way. - fix bug #597: "PVD 5000/5005/5010/3010: slider values displayed at min/max" The GUI of the PVDxxx (when connected to remote RCT 5030) could display incorrect values for the video-parameter sliders on the main page. This was a pure display problem of the GUI. The actual delay in the PVDxxx hardware was never changed in any way. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.5.3 (build 134, 17.May.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for PVD 5000-ES (SDI Framesync with Emergency-Switch) - Support frame synchronizers with two delays switched by GPI - Support frame synchronizers with vertical split ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.5.1 (build 130, 13.Apr.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #565: "Instability when used with CAD 5131" When connected to CAD 5131, the GUI may show some instability and potentially disconnect. This issue is fixed in this release. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.5.0 (build 129, 07.Apr.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for CDX 5024 (Analog SDI Deembedder) - Added Graphical User Interface support for RFR 5011 (Fan Unit) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - elimitated a potential problem that would lead to very long update times to a second connected GUI when a parameter was changed. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.4.2 (build 128, 04.Apr.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - GUI for RCT 5020 allows for additional assignment of board-edge LEDs functionality ("show boards", "fixed pattern") ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug: "EQ slider in GUI for DVA 3120/DVA 5120/DVA 5110 clipping" The GUI for the various Analog Video DAmps (DVA 3120/DVA 5120/DVA 5110) had a bug in the handling of the Slider for the Equalizer value, that would reject any values > 50. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.4.1 (build 127, 21.Mar.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #555: "c3-framework shutdown on CAD 3110" Some versions of the CAD 3110 shutdown the GUI. Fixed by eliminating a long-hidden bug in the framework. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.4.0 (build 126, 16.Mar.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for CAD 5135 (12 Bit Video Analog Component to Digital Converter) ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.3.0 (build 125, 14.Mar.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for CAD 3100 (12 Bit Video Analog Composite to Digital Converter) - Added Graphical User Interface for PDX 5212 / PDX 5214 (Digital AES Deembedder, 2/4 Channel) - Added Graphical User Interface for PDX 5312 / PDX 5314 (Analog Audio Deembedder, 2/4 Channel) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #530: DVD 5002 "GUI's Input colour in single channel always green." In the GUI the input indication in single channel mode is always green. The master LED color is correct though. Just the info text on the panel is not correct. - fix bug #532: "CAD51xx: in 525 mode, Y-Comb filter selection is wrong" For all CAD51xx with ADV7189_02: In 525 mode, the available filter selection for Y-Comb is "no comb" and "2H". This is wrong. Should be "no comb" and "3H adaptive", same as offered in local menu (module edge). - fix bug #535: "PVD50xx" GUI'S Master LED and current channel indication" The Master LED color in the GUI, as well as the indication of current channel in the GUI would not be accurate (i.e. in sync with HW-device) if the current input is controlled by GPI. - fix bug #537: "login to RCT 5030 denied from a computer with multiple NICs" When c3_local is running on a computer with multiple network cards (NICs), it can happen that the wrong one is picked for network communication with the RCT 5030 (remote login). In this case, the IP-address of the correct network interface has to be entered into the file as parameter ORB_ENDPOINT. See comments in file for details. - fix bug #554: "c3_local: possible dead-lock under heavy load." Under very heavy load, the c3_local can dead-lock. A restart is needed to return to normal operation. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.2.3 (build 118, 18.Jan.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #502: "register update from server to GUI not reliable." It can happen that a spontaneous change of a register on the server is not reflected in the GUI. As a workaround, pressing the F5 key on the control-page for a specific device always forces an update of all controls to the correct current state. - fix bug #503: GUI shutdown when renaming Stack/RCT 5020 (intermittent) Under some circumstances it can happen that the application may shutdown on an assertion violation when trying to rename a controller-type entry in the device tree (RCT 5030 / RCT 5020 / RCT 5010 / Stack). ------------------------------------------------ can be connected to c3_server RELEASE 2.2.3 (build 118) and up. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.2.2 (build 117, 17.Jan.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #499: "GUI CAD 5121 / CAD 5122: init not complete" The GUI pages for the LEFT module in CAD 5121 / CAD 5122 would not be displayed correctly under certain init. circumstances. ------------------------------------------------ NOTE: when used with RCT 5030 (network login), this version of c3_local requires c3_server RELEASE 2.2.1 on the RCT 5030. It can not be used to login to an RCT 5030 running any older version of c3_server. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.2.1 (build 116, 17.Jan.2005) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - fix bug #492: "devices not removed." A device would not be removed from the GUI after the physical removal from the system - fix bug #493: "detection of devices *very* slow" It took a long time after physically adding a device to the system, until the new device was visible in the GUI. - fix bug #494: "Status LED of CAD 5010 (and other CAD*s) green" The GUI's status LED for certain variants of the CAD (VideoADC) would not follow the one on the device, but be green always. ------------------------------------------------ NOTE: when used with RCT 5030 (network login), this version of c3_local requires c3_server RELEASE 2.2.1 on the RCT 5030. It can not be used to login to an RCT 5030 running any older version of c3_server. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 2.2.0 (build 115, 12.Jan.2005) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for CAD 5122 (Dual Analog Video to SDI Converter with Frame Sync.) ------------------------------------------------ NOTE: when used with RCT 5030 (network login), this version of c3_local requires c3_server RELEASE 2.2.0 on the RCT 5030.

Amp) ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.14.0 (build 106, 15.Nov.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for SVD 3062 (Input Switch) - Added Graphical User Interface for PAD 5212 (Audio Delay Line) - Introducing the EventHandling subsystem. Individual Modules will generate Events from the onboard signal processing (such as "input signal lost" etc.). For each such event there will be an entry in the . There will also be an entry in the Log-Panel on the bottom of the GUI. The adding of entries to the GUI's Log-Panel can be disabled for individual events from individual modules (based on module type and position). These configurations can be done from the new "Events" tab that is now part of each Module's GUI. ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #454: Video DA-Conversion Luminance filter "Extended" was not correctly initialized in GUI. This only affected the display in the GUI at GUI startup. Signal processing was not affected. This applied to GUIs of following devices: CDA 3000, CDA 3002, CDA 3010, CDA 5010, CDA 5005, PDX 3010, DVD 5002. - Fixed bug #455: PTG 3010 / PTG 5010: Adjust Audio gain to does not work ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.13.3 (build 103, 19.Oct.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for PTG 5010 (Testsignal Generator) (graphics of backpanel and functional diagram are still missing) - introduced new configuration variable COLLECT_MAINTENANCE_INFORMATION. This switch should only be set to TRUE (in C:\Program Files\Lynx\c3_local\config.txt) on specific request by LYNX service personel. It will generate a very large logfile.txt, which should be sent to service@lynx-technik.com for further analysis, together with a detailed description of the problem. NOTE that this switch will implicitly fall back to FALSE after running the application once. So you should (1) set this switch to TRUE, (2) run the application once and reproduce the problematic behaviour in question, (3) terminate the application, (4) collect all files named logfile.* from the installation directory and send them to service@lynx-technik.com, and finally (5) restart the application - Allow overflow of numerical input value into next entry field. E.g. increasing a pixel delay beyond the max. number of pixels per line auto-increments the line-delay and sets pixels to 0. This applies to all GUIs where applicable. ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #429: block diagram of PVD 5010 was wrong - Fixed bug #430: block diagram of PVD 5000 was wrong - Fixed bug #439: intermittend: boards not displayed at startup There has been a similar bug before (#435). But although the symptoms are similar, these were independent bugs, thus independent bugfixes. - Fixed bug #440: select video reference source in GUI CAD 5320 not available - Fixed bug #444: GUI of CAD 5112 was missing the switch to choose between Linesync/Framesync mode. - Fixed bug #447: GUI of PTG 3010: Delay adjustment wrong - Fixed bug #448: PMX 3312/PMX 3313: change of state in analog input may shutdown PC-application ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.13.2 (build 102, 27.Sep.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added support for AES gain and sample rate to PTG 3010 GUI. ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #435: sometimes no devices displayed at startup. This bug has been seen on at least two systems with version 1.13.0 and 1.13.1 now. This problem does not seem to exist with pre-1.13 releases. It turned out to be a compatibility problem with certain versions of the RCT 5020. - Fixed bug #434: GUI CAD 3110: wrong color comb filter displayed as selected ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.13.1 (build 101, 20.Sep.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added GUI Controls for PVD 5010's Audio Gain. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.13.0 (build 100, 08.Sep.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for PTG 3010 (Testsignal Generator) - Added Graphical User Interface for PDX 3010 (Analog Audio Demultiplexer) - Added Graphical User Interface for PMX 5312 (Analog Audio Multiplexer) - Added Graphical User Interface for PMX 5315 (AES & Analog Audio Multiplexer) - In all GUIs: +/- push-buttons which increment/decrement numerical values are auto-repeating (click and hold to keep modifying)# ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #399: Wrong FS level selection The GUI for CAD 3321 did not set the FS-Levels correctly in the module. (there was an implicit offset of 1, which would make it impossible to select the 20dBu setting) - Fixed bug #396: GUI PVD50*: max. line-delay always depends on standard of channel 1 - Fixed bug #380: DAA 3320/DAA 5320 did not always display 0dB in GUI after factory reset. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.12.3 (build 98, 10.Aug.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added support for DVD 5020, HW-Version 2. Previous versions of the c3_local SW would also work with this new HW-Version of the DVD 5020, but the status LED in single channel mode would not show the correct color. ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.12.2 (build 97, 14.July.2004) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed more problems with the serial port under Windows ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.12.1 (build 96, 12.July.2004) ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed problems with the serial port under Windows causing blue screens ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.12.0 (build 94, 06.July.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added Graphical User Interface for CAD 5320 (Dual Analog Stereo to AES Converter) - Added Graphical User Interface for PVD 5010 (Video Media Processor with AES) - Add support for version 109 of the PVD 5005: GUI has controls for "AES phase invert" in Audio tab. ------------------------------------------------ Fixes - Fixed bug #376: flashing 'locate' LED in the RCT 5020's GUI never turns off - Fixed bug #374: c3_local GUI does not show page for DAD 5220 - Fixed bug #349: wrong error indication (left/right) with DAA 3320/DAA 5320 - Fixed bug #376: flashing 'locate' LED in the RCT 5020's GUI never turns off - Fixed bug #377: Status LED does not correctly initialize to RED for some modules (e.g. CDA 5220) ================================================================ LYNX Desktop Controller - RELEASE 1.11.0 (build 93, 28.May.2004) ------------------------------------------------ New Features - Added support for RCT 5020 version 100 and above. This includes the Hotsync feature, Alarm configuration of Powersupply states and the functional assignment of the chain of 10 LEDs on the frontside of the controller board. - Reworked the event notification mechanism. As a first visible consequence, there is a new tab in the Options-Configuration menu to select which classes of events shall be logged in the GUI's log-view (on the bottom of the screen). A certain event can come (ON) and go (OFF). Both of these states can be logged separately. - The contents of the are formatted differently and a new is created on every new start of the application.
