KNOWN PROBLEMS IDENTIFIED IN THIS RELEASE

For TD-LTE, the SIB message may only contain the first 20 to 40 msec of the message if the window length is >= 40 msec. [#3519.]

RF board enumeration may fail on rare occasion. This is indicated by the amber color of the Power LED. This is corrected by recycling power. [#3271]

Scanner RF firmware may get corrupted during the firmware download. This problem corrects itself upon retry. [#3315].

Scanner Power/Timing firmware info may return all zeros in Extended Inquiry after firmware download. This problem corrects itself upon retry. [#3385].

PROBLEMS RESOLVED IN THIS RELEASE

WARNING The power draw of the MX unit is expected to be 6A @ 12V.


Unit may (rarely) not successfully boot up and the orange LED remains orange. If this event occurs, power cycle the unit.




Color Code scan may report invalid measurement on adjacent channel[#3184[


Some instabilities may occur under multiple scanning scenarios[#3205], [#3198],


Conducting concurrent measurements of multiple technologies may result in rare, sporadic variations in Top N and eTop N data, as well as in Color Code power measurements on some channels in a lab environment. [#3175], [#3162], [#3158]

Top N Pilot scan speed is limited to 20ms per channel at this time [#2971]

New scan requests may not run after some use of the Stop Scan message. If this event occurred power cycle the unit [#2984]

Concurrent scanning requests may periodically have sequential responses [#3022]

Color Code scan is slower at high input RF power levels [#3052]

With concurrent scanning of RSSI, Enhanced Top N Signal, Top N Pilot and Color Code on four different bands, Color Code sometimes may not respond.[#3056]

All LTE technology specific scans such as Enhanced Top N Signal, RSSI, Spectrum Analyzer, Enhanced Power Scan may report power level drop if running with Spectrum Analyzer on another band.[#3065]

GPS Responses are not returned in case GPS is not locked.[#3089]

MX will not be scanning after issuing an “Already In Use” message. If this event occurs, power cycle the unit. [#3049]

Per Operation Mode Message request device responds with Error Status 8- “Unsupported request”[#2980]
