– MultiTest-d LCD firmware.

Implemented in version 1.01-03 (DCR1971) June 2012
-------------------------
1) MultiTest-d sends corrupted data with AFG/BFG. (Flyspray ID681)

- Data transmission routines modified to prevent corrupted data packets

being sent to Emperor Lite when used with AFG/BFG.

Implemented in version 1.01-02 (DCR 1607). March 2010
‘Error code 6 & Error code 10 messages. (Flyspray ID 157).

- Parameter addresses in eeprom moved to new previously unused addresses.

Implemented in version 1.01-01 (DCR 1574). April 2009

- Communication corruption when E-Stop engaged. (Flyspray ID 123).

Configuration commands now do not cause communication failure when E-
Stop engaged.

Separate error codes for motor

control and front panel PCB’s. (Flyspray ID

124).
- Eeprom error codes changed to be different from motor control eeprom error
codes.

Official release of Vortex-d (code written for 1.01-00).

Implemented in version 1.01-00. (Prototype release only).

Code updated to allow it to be configured as a Vortex-d

6. Visual Identification of Motor Type

The earth stud and position/orientation of the inlet filter can be used to identify
the motor type.

Parvalux Stand

Dunker Stand
