  • Resolved an issue that could cause SNMP Traps to not be sent for alarms on the Switch Sensor.

v3.0.0

March 14, 2012
  • Added support for all modern web browsers. The Room Alert web interface should now be fully functional in all web browsers, including IE8/9, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera and others that conform to modern web standards. With full support for Chrome and Safari, the web interface can now also be viewed in mobile devices running Android and iOS.
  • Added support for the new ‘Push’ technology for use with Device ManageR. Previously, Device ManageR would query the device for sensor values at defined intervals. If the device was installed at a remote location, this could cause additional configuration steps because of firewalls that might be in place between locations. The new ‘Push’ technology allows users to configure Room Alert to proactively send sensor updates to Device ManageR at regular intervals. Since Room Alert will be sending data out to Device ManageR, firewall configurations can typically be simpler since outgoing connections are usually allowed. In addition, if Room Alert detects an alarm condition, it will immediately send an update to Device ManageR, regardless of the interval setting. This allows for more immediate notification of alarm conditions that is no longer tied to the Discovery Interval configured in Device ManageR. Please contact AVTECH for additional details about this exciting new feature.
  • Updated the core embedded operating system and network drivers. This should improve the communication between our Room Alert devices and high end network switches to improve interoperability.
  • Added support for the JSONP protocol. This makes it much easier for users to incorporate sensor data from Room Alert devices into their own web pages without the challenges previously posed by cross-domain scripting restrictions.
  • Updated the sensor output to conform to valid JSON formats.
  • Added the ability to configure the date format displayed on the web interface and in email notifications to allow for customization in different international locales.
  • Improved the way time is displayed in email notifications to more fully conform to the RFC standard.
  • Added timestamps to the trace output to make it easier for our Technical Support team to identify the timing of certain background activities to facilitate quicker resolutions.
  • Modified the way the Device Name is handled so the Serial Number is used as the default Device Name when factory default settings are reset.
  • Resolved an issue that could allow a Device Name to be configured that was one character longer than supported.
  • Improved the verification performed before saving sensor labels to be sure invalid characters cannot be used for sensor labels.

v2.5.1

  • Improved the formatting of the ‘getdata’ output to be fully validated JSON. This resolves an issue caused in some browsers that could cause sensor data to fail to load.
  • Added support for permanently storing the Serial Number in flash memory. This Serial Number will not be modifyable and will be restored when factory default settings are restored.
  • Improved the alert checking process so multiple alerts can be triggered on the same sensor simultaneously. This allows alerts for Temperature and Humidity at the same time on a Temp/Humidity Sensor.
  • Added support for sending the current sensor value for the sensor that triggered an alert with SNMP Traps. Please update the MIB file used in your SNMP software to benefit from this new feature.
  • Added an intermediate Settings page to help explain the default username and password for initial access to the Settings configuration pages.

  • Resolved an issue that could cause the ‘Alarm Options’ Settings page not to update properly in Internet Explorer.
  • Improved the accuracy of the automatic adjustment made to the internal temperature sensor to compensate for the heat generated internally. The internal temperature sensor should now match external temperature sensors much more closely. Any previously set ‘Adjust’ values might need to be readjusted to compensate for the change.

v1.0.3

September 24, 2008
  • Updated fields and labels on the Settings screens to be consistent across all screens and options.
  • Added a timeout check to the SMTP sending function so a communication loss with the mail server does not cause the unit to stall while waiting for a response.
  • Modified the SMTP sending function so it quits if authentication fails instead of continuing with an attempt to send an unauthenticated email if email authentication is enabled.
  • Added support for displaying the ‘Heat Index’ value in Celsius in addition to the default of Fahrenheit.
  • Added support for using a ‘YE’ parameter in addition to the default ‘OR’ parameter for controlling the Yellow/Orange LED on the signal tower.
  • Modified the email format used when SNMP Traps are received to be more descriptive.
  • Resolved an issue that caused Ping Alarms to always trigger a Red LED event instead of using the Alarm Options configuration.
  • Resolved an issue that caused SNMP Trap Alarms to always trigger a Red LED event instead of using the Alarm Options configuration.
  • Resolved an issue that could cause SNMP and TFTP functions to still respond even when configured as ‘Disabled’.
  • Resolved an issue that caused the ‘Adjust’ value to be applied incorrectly when using the ‘Heat Index’ option on external Digital Temp/Humidity Sensors.

v1.0.2

August 15, 2008
  • Consolidated the firmware for all Room Alert Signal Tower and Room Alert 4E models into a single Room Alert 4E firmware file.

  • Added support for ‘AM/PM’ formatted time display in addition to the default 24 hour time format.
  • Resolved an issue that could cause email messages to fail to send if the mail server replies with a long response to the EHLO command. We now check for a 250 response indicating it is ‘OK’ to send and discard the remaining unused message.
  • Resolved an issue that could cause email messages to fail to send if the mail server responded with an alternative error code to the EHLO command. We now correctly fall back to using HELO if the initial EHLO attempt fails and returns a code other than the 250 ‘OK’ message.
  • Added an ‘Uptime’ value to the ‘/getdata.htm’ output for future use as a way to determine how long the device has been powered on.
  • Added an ‘Uptime’ value to the trace output for future use as a way to determine how long the device has been powered on.
  • Added a new webpage display option designed specifically for mobile devices such as phones and PDAs that required a ‘Content Type’ to be passed with the page data. The new URL ‘http://(IP of Device)/mobile.txt’ will display a text only output of all current sensor data with a Content Type of ‘text/plain’. The URL ‘http://(IP of Device)/mobile’ will still display a text only output of all sensor data without the Content Type header.

v1.0.1

April 9, 2008
  • Resolved an issue that could cause sensor data to stop updating when both external digital sensors were connected for a period of time. The time to wait before reading new sensor data was increased to allow the larger amount of data to be received properly.
