3.5 Issues Resolved DLL / Firmware

ID Description

694 bXaarScorpionGetWaveformTriggerMode return error. If the waveform file wasnt found - thereturn was being returned as true when it should have been false

696 When a -1 (0xff) serial number is found in the XJ500 or proton printheads, then the scorpiondll didnt work as expected

3.6 Known Issues

At the time of these release notes going to press, we were aware of the following issues: -

Support for Xaar 64 printheads is not included in this release.

Translation engine does not support 2 bit mode

When Idle spitting with Xaar 318s the data for the first line of each spit image is not correct

The XUSB FPGA Boot command in the toolbar causes XUSB to lock and requires a power reset to

recover.

When utilising the automatic encoder calculation function, the output values are incorrect by a factor

of 2. The workaround is to enter a value that is 2 times the required resolution in the resolution edit

box.
