Solved GNSS Versioning

[Kelly Bellis]

Javad New Feeds once in a while sends out various notices. Today's notice indicated that the GNSS firmware has been updated; for example, the last three such notices concerning GNSS firmware:

• 20170407: GNSS firmware version 3.7.1 has been added.
• 20170306: GNSS firmware version 3.7.0 has been added.
• 20161129: GNSS firmware version 3.6.9 has been added.

On the LS, the versioning shown as being current is not 3.7.1; rather, 3.6.9. Why is this?

I wanted to bring this back to the top to see why the updated firmware has not been made public.

 

[Matt Johnson]

3.6.9 is still the Feature-Stable firmware, 3.7.1 is classified as the latest: http://www.javad.com/jgnss/support/update.html

Thank you Matt & Matt.

I would clarify this more. We do manage firmware for LS separatelly from main development branch because of specific features releated to LS only. Sooner or later we eliminate difference in versioning when our latest RTK engine will be spread among all products.
3.6.9 of LS includes features of 3.7.1 partly so don't consieder LS firmware as obsolete, conversely, in most cases new features are comming with LS first!
