New Firmware Release 2.8.1 introduces enhanced control and visualization features for LumiNode and LumiCore.
Applicable models:
- LumiNode range
- LumiCore range

New Features:
- It is now possible to use a record button to configure the startup buffer: With the record button, the current output of the process engine will be set in the startup buffer configuration window.
- Improved visualization of selected inputs:
- Merge mode status for Switch and Backup:
- Now a frame is displayed to highlight at selected input.
- Inputs that are not selected are visually connected with a dashed line to the engine.
- Input source status:
- The state of the input source is now displayed with a green input icon (actively sending data) or a red input icon (inactive source)
- The state of the input source is now displayed with a green input icon (actively sending data) or a red input icon (inactive source)
- Merge mode status for Switch and Backup:
- The device’s short name is now displayed in the top right corner of the web interface. This allows for easier identification when multiple browser tabs are opened.
Improvements:
- DMX hold/continuous is now shown with a heartbeat blink, indicating the port is active but no new data is received (last values held).
- Hovering over a play input in the web interface will now show which Play scene / snapshot is active and which one is played next.
- Drag-and-drop now also copies and increments internal inputs, simplifying multi-engine setup.
Bug Fixes:
- An issue has been rectified where sometimes the wrong DMX port was removed from the process engine. [Note: a very specific order of operations was needed to trigger this].
- An issue has been resolved where the web interface would show ‘no active connection’ in certain situations where web authentication was enabled.
