1. New or Changed Features
==========================

Client
------

1. Kernel version
Commandline: kernelversion, API: getKernelVersion

2. [Jungfrau][Mythen3][Gotthard2][Gotthard][Moench][Ctb]
Update Kernel
Commandline: updatekernel, API: updatekernel
You could damage the detector. Please use with caution.

3. Update Detector Server (no tftp)
Commandline: updatedetectorserver, API: updateDetectorServer
Updates the detector server without using tftp. It also creates a
symbolic link to a shorter name and reboots. The API using tftp
(copydetectorserver) is deprecated.

4. Update Firmware and Server (no tftp)
Commandline: update (fewer arguments), API: updateFirmwareAndServer
(overloaded) Same as before, except the server is transferred to the
detector without tftp. The previous API and command (fewer arguments)
using tftp is deprecated.

5. Update mode in Detector server
Commandline: udpatemode, API set/getUpdateMode
One can set detector server to update mode (especially if server and
firmware are incompatible that the server cannot start up without errors).
This mode will limit access to a few operations only needed to update the
detector. Setting it will create an empty file (udpate.txt) and resetting
it will delete the empty file. Ofcourse, command line "--update" will
overwrite any file detection and start server in update mode.


Detector Server
---------------

1. [Gotthard2] speed
Ensuring dbitpipeline is default when changing speed. This has an effect
only if dbitpipeline was changed in between.



2. Resolved Issues
1. Resolved Issues
==================

Detector Server
---------------

1. [Jungfrau][Moench][Ctb] Programming Firmware Failures
Firmware programming via software failures are fixed using a new kernel
and corresponding changes in server software. Software works with both
old and new kernels.

2. [Gotthard2][Mythen3]
Verifies kernel version at server start up.
1. [Jungfrau] Cannot start
Under some circumstances and not always reproducible, the detector
cannot start once it has stopped. Fixed by adding a delay between the
stop pulse and the resetting core to give sufficient time to readout and
stream out the ongoing frame.

3. [Jungfrau]
Verifies HW2.0 before trying to set read n rows or flip rows.
Has no effect when not using slsReceiver.

4. [Eiger]
Thresholdnotb command loads threshold energy without trimbits, but had
a bug in the server that was setting nchip to 0 and further trimval or
trim commands would no work reliably. This is fixed now.


Client
------

1. Receiver Id in the commands in config files were ignored. Fixed.

2. Execute command now also mentions which module failed.

3. [Jungfrau][Moench][Ctb]
Programming firmware procedure did not delete temporary file created in
6.0.0. Fixed.


Receiver
--------

1. Setting receiver hostname to "none" threw an exception. Fixed.

2. [Jungfrau]
Since the server verifies HW2.0 for number of rows before trying to set it,
the receiver now does not show incorrect missing packets stemming from this
issue.
