/E207

Upgrade to E-series Xilinx MPE board (10-3692) recommended. Use this version instead of 2.50 

Bug fixes: 

• Drum error reporting corrected
• Drum initialization problem corrected
• Drum speed series plot problem corrected
• Load light functionality for diagnostic loads corrected
• Resume and clear when not suspended no longer dump unexpected messages.

/D908

Bug fix to scaling problem introduced in 2.40a. 
Bug fix for checksum errors in servo_stat subsystem. 

Notes: 

• Drum initialization errors occur when using this version with E-version Xilinx MPE boards (10-3692A) and a Creo Encoder (9000 line). A correction to this problem will be available shortly.
• Drum errors in the range from 6025-6041 will have the incorrect error text associated with them. Use list error to determine the correct error.

/D779

Bug fix for load cal command when using small plates.
Version removed due to potential scaling problems.

/D242

Subscan shift (gc sss) negative range increased from -10 mils to -150 mils (only used in 3244E).

Note: It is not necessary to upgrade to this version from 2.31. The main purpose of this release is to provide a bug fix for 3244E Trendsetters

/D106

Trailing edge cylinder delay (aldly teul) default changed from 1 second to 4 seconds. 
Mainscan shift (gc mss) default changed from 300 mils to 240 mils to support larger imageable areas for new presses.

Note: It is not necessary to upgrade to this version from 2.30. The main purpose of this release is to provide support for 3244E Trendsetters
