Important info if you upgrade from a version previous than 9000
Starting from version 9000, we introduced a significant fix for better memory management, increasing performance, and strengthen stability.If you want to get the most of this version, it is essential to follow these steps:
- do a backup of your project before starting;
- upgrade the driver to the latest version. It could a long process, especially if you used it for a long time;
- when the driver is ready, press the "Read from panel" button and wait until the queue is empty (see the status in "Ks Last Config" property);
- run the action "Clear internal tables";
- perform again "Read from panel" and wait until the queue is empty (see the status in "Ks Last Config" property).
Done.
We notice some trouble in the touch panels interface after the upgrade. This happens because the process could be too long. In this case, when the procedure is complete, you can try to start a "refresh navigators" or switch panels off so that they can reload the entire interface from fresh.
Thanks to Lukáš Polívka from Yatun for his kind suggestions.
