Firmware 2.8.1

Firmware 2.8.1 is a general improvements release for for P44-DSB devices.

This release contains improvements over the previous 2.8.0 firmware release, while remaining fully compatible with it. It is recommened to upgrade to this version even in case the new features are not needed, as this version also fixes some bugs and is easier to support in case of problems.

General Recommendation for updates: before updating, please always use the "Download configuration backup" button to download a backup of your device's configuration.

Bugfixes

• p44script IDE: log output now really should not output extra empty lines any more.
• p44script IDE: the "modified" indicator (boldfaced tab title) occasionally did not work for scene scripts.
• p44script: fixed dnssdbrowse() which only returned txt records instead of full information.

Improvements

• Scene caller/responder bridging devices: now can have a deactivation scene AND an optional reset condition (timeout, when another scene is called, when the scene is undone).
• Matter Bridge (beta): now inverts the polarity of window handle binary inputs to match the matter-side expectations about how "open" and "close" should be represented by the "contact sensor" device type.
• Buttons: now emit a 0 value (meaning: not pressed) event after a complete click sequence. This makes evaluator expressions using button inputs reset between button uses, without needing the "trigger at every evaluation" trigger mode.

New features

• EnOcean: support for D2-0A-00/01 triple temperature sensors (as indoor sensors)
• channel coupling: built-in "glow dim" (color temperature automatically rising with brightness) can be enabled for CT and color lights, and completely custom dependencies can be defined using the new channel coupling script in the advanced output settings dialog.
• p44script IDE: can now edit user files activated via editfile() (e.g. from REPL or mainscript)
• p44script: listfiles() function to list contents of directories
• lrgraphics: new global introspection functions: lrgfonts() lists all available fonts, lrgviews() all view types.
• lrgraphics: Custom fonts in lrgf format (e.g. generated using FontHexer2) can be loaded using loadfont() to use them in textviews.
