    56=== Update Pack 2010-08-18 ===
     
    1112'''OS -''' Update to fix touch screen beep too long.
    1213'''Loader -''' Fixed problem with DAC card output level.
    13 '''Install Files -''' Updated install script to prompt whether to perform full erase and reinstall. If no is selected the script will prompt for what components to reinstall.
     14'''Install Files -''' Updated install script to prompt (Y/N) whether to perform full erase and reinstall. If no is selected the script will prompt (Y/N) for each component group to reinstall.

    2021=== Update Pack 2010-06-28 ===
    21 ==== OS: 2010-06-28 Loader: 1.08l MB: 1.16 ====
     22==== OS: 2010-06-28 Loader: 1.08k MB: 1.16 ====
    2223'''OS -''' Improved mndb-comm driver. Added support for ICAN and DAC cards. Added queuing to help prevent apps from overrunning buffer and causing communications problems if requests are sent to main board with insufficient delay between requests. Added prompt on startup to allow updating indicator from USB.
     24'''Loader -''' Added ICAN and DAC support. Fixed problem with 12 hour mode time may show as 0:00 instead of 12:00. Improved totalizer calibration parameter prompting to allow one set of inputs to configure all scales in totalizer. '''MB -''' Added support for ICAN cards.

     30
     31==== Ver: 2010-08-04  August 4, 2010 ====
     32Fixed problem with max734x driver that was causing touch screen beep sounds to be too long.
     33
     34==== Ver: 2010-07-21  July 21, 2010 ====
     35Fixed problem that appmenu was no longer able to perform autorun to automatically start an application after a specified number of seconds.
     36
     37==== Ver: 2010-06-28  June 28, 2010 ====
     38Improved mndb-comm driver. Added support for ICAN and DAC cards. Added queuing to help prevent apps from overrunning buffer and causing communications problems if requests are sent to main board with insufficient delay between requests. Added prompt on startup to allow updating indicator from USB.
     39
     40==== Ver: 2009-07-02  July 2, 2009 ====
     41Improved mnbd-comm driver. Added support for signaling main board to reset UART in case of lost communication. Added feature for unsolicited main board messages to be acknowledged to applications with “U” instead of “A” to help application library keep commands/responses synchronized.
     42
     43==== Ver: 2009-03-27  March 27, 2009 ====
     44Improved mnbd-comm driver. Added queuing for received messages from main board so that the DMA interrupt process can return more quickly. Previously “Lost communication from main board” may happen in some cases when the driver receives messages from the main board with no delay between them.
     45
     46==== Ver: 2009-01-19  January 19, 2009 ====
     47Improved mnbd-comm driver code relating to totalizer.
     48
     49==== Ver: 2008-12-19  December 19, 2008 ====
     50Improved m532x_graphics driver to return success or fail acknowledgement for custom font load.
     51
     52==== Ver: 2008-12-04  December 4, 2008 ====
     53Added option to disable improved thread locking from 08.11.24 for Alex.  This will allow new driver to use older 08.11.19 style communication which he believes is better for some applications.
     54
     55==== Ver: 2008-11-24  November 24, 2008 ====
     56Fixed problem in mnbd-comm driver relating to totalizer output. Improved thread locking for concurrency.
     57
     58==== Ver: 2008-11-19  November 19, 2008 ====
     59Improved mnbd-comm driver speed for repeat weight.
     60
     61==== Ver: 2008-10-21  October 21, 2008 ====
     62Added WIM feature to mnbd-comm driver. Application may set a threshold weight and buffer size. When weight above threshold is reached driver will queue all received gross weights into buffer. Application can work from buffer removing overhead of application having to read each weight record individually.
     63
     64=== Loader (OPI Boot loader) ===
     65
     66==== Ver: 1.08o  July 26, 2010 ====
     67Fixed problem with DAC output level.
     68
     69==== Ver: 1.08m  July 16, 2010 ====
     70Improved “Update Software Menu” to show warning message before existing OS is erased (Continue Y/N?).
     71
     72==== Ver: 1.08k  May 24, 2010 ====
     73Added ICAN and DAC support. Fixed problem with 12 hour mode time may show as 0:00 instead of 12:00. Improved totalizer calibration parameter prompting to allow one set of inputs to configure all scales in totalizer.
     74
     75==== Ver: 1.07k  Dec 17, 2008 ====
     76Added OIML certification number to information display.
     77
     78==== Ver: 1.07  November 20, 2008 ====
     79Corrected problem with main board COM3 not being set to correct baud based on preference setting.
     80
     81=== Main board ===
     82
     83==== Ver: 1.16  February 17, 2010 ====
     84Added support for ICAN cards.
     85
     86==== Ver: 1.14  July 9, 2009 ====
     87Added support for DIO card counting feature.
     88
     89==== Ver: 1.12  June 17, 2009 ====
     90Added support for DAC card.
     91
     92==== Ver: 1.11  March 3, 2009 ====
     93Communications improvements to help prevent “Lost communications with main board”.
     94
     95==== Ver: 1.10  November 7, 2008 ====
     96Added DIO event method to remove all events and reset outputs to low state. 5B {card} 00 00 00 00 FF FF FF FF {condition empty}
     97
     98==== Ver: 1.08  Oct 15, 2008 ====
     99Fixed problem if main board received message from OPI of 2 bytes or less, which might happen due to noise, the main board would stop communicating with the OPI causing “Lost communications with main board”.
     100
     101=== SIB (Scale Interface Board) ===
     102This cannot be updated using the USB update pack. This requires an ISP interface to update the firmware.
     103
     104==== Ver: 0.06 November 18, 2008 ====
     105Clear weight average after calibration
     106
     107==== Ver: 0.05 September 17, 2008 ====
     108Changed default configuration parameters for board test.
     109
     110==== Ver: 0.04 July 31, 2008 ====
     111Added units labels to board parameters.
