Description Premium Standard | |

X-10 IR signals with Gewa units: Added support for recording signals using Gewa’s alternative learning method. This method must be used in order to record X-10 signals (among others).

Improved scan tool: The Scan Tool (available in the Edit Tools box Edit View) has been simplified. It now behaves more like the other tools in Edit View (Picture Tool, Content Tool, etc).
| x | x | |
|
Improved Edit Tools: Therapists have reported some work-flow issues with the Edit Tools in Edit View. We have made changes to these so that any change made to a button is saved unless the therapist explicitly presses the Close button in the tool dialog. Earlier versions would discard changes e.g. if another button was pressed in the background.
