New

• System ignores Stop-Arm detection events for first 15 minutes after power on or vehicle speed exceeds 5MPH for first time. This prevents videos from being generated during the pre-trip inspection in the bus parking area. A note has been added to the stop-arm page on the DVR to reflect this as well. If the “Unit ID” is set to the default “PVVS” the stop-arm will work like normal at boot, allowing QC techs and installers to check the stop-arm without waiting 15 minutes.
• Added support to new 4G modem model/type (EC25-NA)
• Added 5 seconds to power off delay time to ensure proper shutdown if record delay and power off delay are set to same length.

Changed

• Default display output (SD and HD) mode set to cameras 1-8
• Disabled unused VGA output to reduce system operating temperature
• Disabled Telnet and enabled SSH for more secure advanced troubleshooting by engineering
• Add option to turn OSD on/off across all cameras on “Record” settings page
• Improve Stop-Arm camera recovery if signal interruption occurs
• Change default Wi-Fi SSID name to show serial number (instead of MAC), for example PV_RANGER_2207H9HD0012
• Change Stop-Arm OSD to show “SARM” when Stop-Arm is open and “V” when a violation is detected
• Improved Wi-Fi connection security
• Improved post firmware update verification to ensure system stability

Fixed

• Fixed issue where camera 10 (Stop-Arm) did not show on video output (SD or HD)
• Fixed issue where camera 10 (Stop-Arm) videos not being sent up during video requests
• Fixed issue where Stop-Arm Violation videos sometimes get sent to Alarm folder
