SnakeSys Firmware Release Notes (R8)

8.1

Version 214

Change default DMX setting of the retime transmit timer from 200ms to 50ms as a small number of fixture types were found not

8.2

Version 213

Change the policy for ACN output to hold the current DMX output packet, to correct an issue where some fixtures may not

8.3

Version 204

Improved DMX output logic synthesis to correct issues with certain fixtures. Firmware changes for DMX menu.
