• New DHCP IP assignments on 2nd ethernet port will not take effect until the ethernet cable is re-plugged. - From AIM web UI enable/disable the eth1 interface which is moreover restarting the DHCP service.
• DHCP Server does not automatically update if you change the IP Pool range. - If you change the DHCP IP scope/range. from 192.168.1.10-192.168.1.20 to 192.168.1.30-192.168,1.40 the config is updated correctly, however, the DHCP continues to lease the original range. The resolution is to reboot the AIM Manager.
• MAC address on Backup AIM’s 2nd ethernet port shown as “Currently unconfigured” - This is a web page error and will be addressed in a future release.
• Error when attempting to disable 2nd ethernet port on Satellite AIM via the Primary AIM. - User needs to manually take down ethernet 1 interface of the Satellite AIM. Then the user can revert the setting of eth2 interface of Satellite AIM.
• Truncated channel names in OSD - The OSD can only support 25 characters whereas in the AIM menu 45 characters are allowed. Please remember that some Japanese/Korean/Chinese characters are classed as 2 or more characters.
• Bonded mode gets removed from satellite AIM after downgrade or upgrades to the V5.7 - This issue is resolved in V5.8 so will not be present from the next version back to v5.8

• On occasion upgrading from AIM v4.12 to v5.5, Hostname and DNS Domain are not populated. - Please make note of the settings in case they are not transferred.
• Accents on letters go missing when upgrading from v4 to v5 - Investigating issue with font pack, to be resolved in NEXT release if possible.
• DHCP server does NOT check if an IP address is available before its issued. - Ensure you have a clear separation of the pool addresses for endpoints away from the IP addresses for AIM to allow for replacement AIM servers.
• Communication between Satellite and Primary stops when eth1 is set to DHCP on primary AIM - Using a Static Route, which is already available on the Primary’s interface will resolve this issue.
• When using “replace function “for ALIF2000 devices with ALIF2100 devices” Channel does not reconnect. - A manual re-connect has to be initiated. This only happens when it is not directly a like for like model replacement,
• Configure channel allows VNC, SSH and HTML channels to select two heads even though only 1 head (monitor) is supported for these modes - Please ensure video 2 is set to OFF
• Do not select “reboot before upgrade” when upgrading ALIF3000R - The “reboot is not strictly necessary on any ALIF unit but does introduce an issue on ALIF3000R where if multiple upgrades are put in progress – only the first unit is upgraded. Solution is to ensure the reboot is not selected.
• Not all information is passed in upgrade from V4.x to v5.x due to incompatibility in versions of underlying OS and DB between v4 and v5 - Please make notes of the following settings before you upgrade to new version: Active Directory (all settings), Email (Domain/IP, Username, Password), NTP (NTP Key), SNMP (Authentication & Privacy Password), RDP (Passwords)

Changes since 1.1

• Mouse lost when changing Presets
• Mouse moves beyond the edge screen
• Increasing Mouse speed locks the firmware

• Cannot connect Infinity RX's directly to Console port. Workaround is to use a DVA-UB
• Cursor not visible if channel input not connected.

Changes since 1.10

• Support PTH-660 touchpad
• Improved 4K DCI DP1.1 mode - video
• Improved OSD stability
• Power LED changes too quicky on start up
• Automatically show OSD on warnings and errors
• DisplayPort audio to analogue mapping
• Notify the User visually when video signal is lost
• Improved video behavior when rebooting Tx or disconnecting displays from Rx

• Improvements to Transparent USB

Changes since v1,1

• Added new VDI Viewers, VNC, HTML and Terminal (SSH)
• ALIF1000/2000 range of products including support for CSS-PRO units, USB mass storage devices and many more NON HID devices (HID was already supported) Touch screen support is incomplete and variable between model types and whether connected to ALIF devices or VDI sessions. Please contact your local sales specialists to help you confirm the preferred Touch screen solution operation.
• The new audio subsystem now provides both analog and digital audio via the ALIF3000’s display connectors, which are sourced from the transmitters analog or USB audio ports. Digital audio on the transmitter’s video connector is not supported
• Reversed behavior of the CAPS and Num lock possible when switching between different host computers or OSD

• .CRT certificates not working for HTML channels - This is an AIM issue which will be resolved in V5.8 . Please use .pem files only
• Time mis-match between AIM and ALIF3000 will prevent firmware upgrade - This only occurs if NTP is enabled on AIM. The ALIF3000 sometimes does not get an update. This is an AIM issue and will be resolved in a future build.
• When using an HTML channel - you can right click a hyperlink which allows” download linked files”. This is not supported by design however it does stop the channel working. - The page still updates (AIM periodically updates) but cannot be interacted with until the channel is disconnected and reconnected.
• Microphone audio does not work if Microphone not connected at boot up - Connect and re-boot unit.
• Dell MS111/116/M105 mice need to have USB merging turned off to work - Read manual on how to turn off merging.
• Backtick (`) key not behaving properly in VNC/SSH - VNC into Windows / SSH into Ubuntu - The backtick ` key (left of 1) acts as a (Grave diacritic) dead key, so is only output when another key is pressed. With certain keys (e.g. E) it will output the accented character (È). - VNC into Ubuntu - The backtick does not output at all except when Shifted (outputting ¬). The unshifted ` and AltGr | (labelled as a split pipe) can't be produced.
• Only 9 unique USB devices can be connected at once to the RX - This is by design. Even though a normal USB hub can support 13 endpoints we have reserved ports for internal operations.
• VNC viewer only supports absolute pointing modes
• Mouse buttons cannot be used for any AIM Hotkey functions - Currently not supported on ALIF3000
• Apple A1243 keyboard has incomplete support - Not all the functions are currently supported plus the default English keyboard mapping does not match, so some characters such as §, " and @ are not in the correct key. This does not affect ALIF or RDP channels as the Windows host determines the mapping in those cases. The OSD, VNC, SSH and HTML channels use the 'Keyboard Country Code' setting on AIM to determine the character mapping, for which there is currently no option for a Mac map, whether in English or any other language.
• When connecting to ALIF2112T via VNC , Password hashing needs to be disabled on the unit - Please see ALIF2112T manual for instructions and remember to re-enter passwords after disabling hashing
• Supports passwords of up to 8 characters in length for VNC when the server is using the VNCAuth authentication method - It is possible to enter more characters, but the server will ignore them when it validates the password. This is common to all VNC setups using VNCAuth.
• When using HTML channel, clicking on links that want to open another tab do not work - As designed. Workaround it to load that link as a separate channel.
• ALIF3000R cannot be used for headless operation. - Unlike other ALIF receiver units , ALIF3000’s USB system does not work without monitors being plugged in.
• On HTML channels it is not possible to download files from a website. - This is by design.
• User cannot log in to OSD if the 3rd Network port (RJ45) is connected to AIM - This is a note to warn that this is expected behavior. The 3rd port is only for connecting to separate network where VM machines may reside
• Occasional decode errors and low frame rates when decoding UHD content from ALIF4000 transmitters - Ultimately this is a network issue and how quickly the ALIF3000R can deal with up to 2Gbps of data. Removing teaming will improve the issue or change to the recommended maximum resolution from ALIF TX of a single 2560 x 1440 resolution

Changes since 6.04 f/w:

• UI becomes unusable with persistent "connection lost" if user password changed. This effected units in either the self-managed matrix modes or point-to-point operation if “Passwords” were set to protect the pages. If v6.04 has been used, the units need to be factory reset and then upgraded to v6.06 and the settings reapplied.
• Receiver fails to correctly prune EDID sent to ALIF1002/20002/2020 series transmitters resulting in no video or 640x480 resolution

Feature Additions:-

• With the release of ALIF3000 V1.1.0 - the AIM system must be upgraded to support the new features contained in it.
  
  IMPORTANT:
  • If you already have ALIF3000’s attached to the AIM, please make sure you upgrade them to v1.1.0 or above before upgrading the AIM to v4.12. If you do upgrade the AIM before the ALIF3000’s, you will need to reboot the AIM for the ALIF3000’s to connect correctly.
  • The AIM v4.12 sets the minimum firmware version for the ALIF3000 as v1.1.0. Therefore, until upgraded, they will not be fully operational.
  
  
• Support for ALIF4000 V4.02
  The ALIF40000 v4.02 release contains new features which AIM is required to control in matrix operation. These features include:
  • SDR10 and HDR10
  • Touch screen control.
• Support for ALIF101T
  The ALIF101T is a new transmitter in the Adder range and will only be recognized in AIM version v 4.12 and above.
• No Mass storage option
• Usernames for logging into the AIM's web UI and OSD are now Case-Sensitive (A-a).
  Another option has been added to the USB filtering tool to allow blocking of just Mass storage devices.
  This option is currently not support on the ALIF3000 or ALIF100T’s.
  • Minimum endpoint firmware versions that support this feature are: -
  • ALIF1002T/R, ALIF2000T/R, ALIF2002T, ALIF2020T/R, ALIF2112T – v5.0
  • ALIF4021T/R – v4.02

• Problem adding 16 Transmitters to a Receiver
• OSD only displayed the first 8 Transmitter devices
• USB did not work with iPEPS+
• Various Keyboards /Mice/Rack trays not working.

Changes since 3.01 f/w:

• Support for 10 bit color and HDR. With the introduction of firmware versions 4.01 ALIF4000 models now support video signals with color formats that use 10-bpc (bits per color) as well as the standard 8-bpc. The supported dynamic ranges are:
  • SDR8 - Uses 8-bpc (24-bits in total per pixel), as supported across the ALIF range.
  • SDR10' - Uses 10-bpc (30-bits total) in order to define a wider color gamut.
  • HDR10 - Uses 10-bpc to define a wider color gamut and also benefits from support for ST2084 dynamic range mastering and BT.2020 colorimetry.
• Touch screen support. The ALIF4000 now supports full touch screen support for operation. (Note: This applies only to touch screens that do not need proprietary drivers). A floating semitransparent icon can be positioned anywhere on the screen and will launch the OSD in either point to point, Basic matrix and AIM control. There is also an on-screen keyboard. When a single touchscreen is used it should operate correctly as soon as the USB link is made between the screen and the ALIF RX. However, if two touchscreens are installed it may be necessary to instruct the ALIF RX which screen to correctly attributed to each USB input.
• Basic matrix operation. Although ALIF units are most often organised and managed by a central AIM server, it is possible to create small networks of ALIF4021 units, most often in matrix arrangements, i.e. multiple TX and RX units which can freely cross-connect. This method of connection works well for small numbers of TX and RX units but will become more difficult to manage as more units are attached. The maximum number of TX sources that can be made available to any RX is 16.
• Local feed through at RX. ALIF4000 RX receivers can be configured to support a local link to a separate host PC, via a dedicated ALIF TX, in addition to the main link to the network. The locally linked PC remains completely isolated from the main network. To configure this arrangement, ensure that the IP port that is used for the local link is not allocated an IP address. The link local connection to the ALIF TX must use the same type of port as the main network connection, i.e. either both SFP or both CATx.
• Added a workaround for an error in the EDID of a LG Ultrawide 38UC99 monitor (3840 x 1660) which did not display video unless active sync is enabled.
• Rebooting the AIM Manager could cause temporary loss of a channel connection.
• In point to point mode – Enabling or Disabling the USB setting on the Receiver did not have any immediate effect to the current channel. A reboot or deleting and re-adding the USB connection on the preset was needed.
• Video Mirroring feature does not support DP Audio.

Changes since 1.1 f/w:

New Feature:

• Transparent USB2.0 High-speed link The ALIF4000 contains hardware that allows a full 480Mbps USB2.0 high-speed point to point link to be formed. In this V2.02 release, this feature has been enabled. This is identified as port 1 on the front of the RX unit. The link is point to point only. It cannot be multicast. In terms of setup and operation, it is linked to the normal USB operation. In a matrix system, the first RX to connect to the TX gets the link. If a second RX joins, the high-speed link is not active. If the original RX disconnects, the second unit that joined will assume the link. The HID only feature also disables the high-speed link totally as well as the normal USB from using any device other than HID devices.
• Point to point setup via OSD. In point to point mode, it is now possible to configure all the RX and TX units setting from the onboard OSD. By using the hotkey modifier (Left ALT, Left CTRL, C default setting) this brings up the OSD and allows the user to configure.
• USB device support. Support has been added for smart card or CAC readers and support for extra classes of Serial to USB devices.

For DDX30 and DDX10

This firmware release adds the ability to disable the USB audio on the DDX-CAM modules.

V4.9 is a maintenance release which has addressed issues with the OSD (On screen display) and USB support of newer devices.

For DDX10 and DDX30

Fixed the following issue:-
- When re-assigning ports and using the Preset function to store the connection state, it was possible on power on that the configuration appeared to have been lost or the DDX-USR's and DDX-CAM to not be connected in the way that you had expected. This required the DDX to be factory reset to resolve the problem.

This update contains the following:-
- Added the ability for the CCS-XB LED's to work in non-Free-Flow mode.
- Fixed an issue where the LED brightness level was not maintained if you reconnected the CCS-XB module whilst the CCS-PRO was powered.

Added Custom Mode timings
Analogue video has many different resolutions and timings to have an exhaustive list of supported EDID. Also many modes can be close to other modes making it difficult to auto detect correctly.
A web page has been added to the ALIF100T-VGA where you can adjust the video timings to ensure the system accurately displays the video content.
Please read the updated manual that goes along with this release to use this feature.

Known Issues

• 1920 x 180@50Hz does not display correctly with fixed EDID selected on the AIM. Use 60Hz EDID or use custom mode
• 800x 480@60 Hz sometimes displayed with offset or mis-detected. Re-apply hot plug detect, if no improvement, change the resolution on PC or use custom mode
• 640 x 480@60Hz sometimes displayed with offset or mis-detected. Re-apply hot plug detect, if no improvement, change the resolution on PC or use custom mode.
• For the VGA variant it is recommended that the hot plug detect period is set to 5 seconds – or very long when under control of AIM.
