Release Notes for ZentriOS BLE 3.0.0
ZentriOS BLE 3.0 provides the following new functionality as well as general improvements and stability enhancements.
New features include:
- Advertising beacons - see Beacons and Advertising
- Central autoconnect - see ce a d
- BLE encryption support - see Security
- Set and get values for multiple GPIOs - see gdis , gges , gses
- Stream mode breakout character sequence - see bu s s
- con command blocks until timeout
Fixes include:
- An issue, where the GPIO direction was not saved and restored correctly, has been resolved.
- An issue, in which the UART occasionally dropped characters at low baud rates, has been resolved.
Note: In general, ZentriOS BLE devices must have the same major firmware version to connect and communicate with each other. Devices with ZentriOS BLE 2.x are not able to connect to devices with ZentriOS BLE 1.x. We recommend installing the same ZentriOS BLE version on all ZentriOS BLE devices that are required to communicate with each other.
