A firmware patch for CR 4.2 has been posted.

Go to the CR 4.2 page for details.

This upgrade improves the picker functionality for devices BA064 and below. It adds a grating to sense the position of the P-cup arms and updates the picker to the newest version. There are ten of these upgrade kits available.

See the FCOs page for details.

A new document describing the procedure to convert a Trendsetter VLF AL to a Trendsetter VLF is now available. See the Upgrades page for details.

The S to F speed upgrades for the Trendsetter VLF AL have changed due to the end of life product status of the 20W thermal heads. Only refurbished 20W heads will be available to support existing customers.

For devices B1097 and lower, the F-speed thermal head is 32-4141A ASSY, EO, HEAD, TH1.7, 2400, 192, P22. Devices B1098 and higher have factory-installed 1.7 heads.

New S to F speed upgrades will be the same as a V speed upgrade—the model number that is configured in the device will set the maximum speed and media size. The device must be upgraded from an air-cooled head to a water-cooled head.

V2.8 speed upgrades remain unaffected. The head used with V-speed upgrades will still be a 224-pixel head: 32-4182A ASSY, EO, HEAD, TH1.7, 2400, 224, P22.

The controlled release 4.2 page has now been posted. See the Control/settings page for details.

This is a reminder that all MCUs must have a thermal cut-off switch installed to the power control circuit for the motor. See the FCOs page for details.
