Released 6/10/2025
Download Version 1.4 here

This update must be done on USB. It cannot yet be updated over Sidus Link or Sidus Link Pro.

For updating firmware form version 1.2 and later, please update normally by copying files to a USB Drive.

WARNING: If updating firmware form version 1.0 or 1.1, please see update Instructions Below.

Supports Auto-Patching and Auto-Configuration for Sidus Link Pro V2.0
Added Bluetooth upgrade support (this version and above support Bluetooth upgrades).
CRMX PIN reset (restoring factory settings resets PIN to default).
Updated NFC linking-key setup method.
Added low-temperature environment limits.
Changed water pump to open-loop control, added no-load detection, fine-tuned max PWM value to cap speed (prevents exceeding 5500 RPM).
Added dimming safety check: added 96V as part of the output condition.
Added 96V condition check to fan and pump error codes (prevents false fan/pump errors without 96V).
Added condition: dimming data not processed in shutdown state (shutdown BLE control).
Added condition: under-voltage protection not checked in shutdown (hardware driver anomaly).

Modified DMX fade time and on/off responsiveness (optimized DMX data forwarding and light thread handling to reduce delays).
Shortened button shortcut. Key trigger time (now triggers after 5 seconds).
Optimized power-on high/low voltage logic (to avoid incorrect adapter info at startup).
Optimized DMX processing logic (added dedicated DMX data handling thread).
Optimized 96V power-off detection during upgrade (longer shutdown time previously misinterpreted as failure).
Optimized memory space (moved images to external flash; converted global to local variables).
Optimized quick detection logic for protective cover.
Optimized flicker performance (targeting 15%–35% brightness range).

Fixed CRMX reset and RX/TX switching failures (CRMX reset didn’t clear RX connection or switch TX to RX).
Fixed system freeze when inserting Ethernet and connecting DMX (due to memory allocation failure; adjusted task stack size).
Removed error codes for adapter communication anomalies (interference caused adapter to miss responses).
Changed power-off memory to timed memory (ensures data saves before sudden power-off).
Removed lamp connection cable icon (too many icons in title bar causing overflow).
Fixed Follow mode not updating light mode UI.
Fixed incorrect flame effect color issue.
Fixed issue where indicator light turned red after upgrade and wouldn’t reset (added watchdog to Boot).
Commented out upgrade auto-off (lamp control sends off command separately).
Fixed error code logic for water pump in low-temperature conditions.
Fixed XT52 effect renaming issue.
Filtered digital power supply COB NTC short-circuit (125°C driver anomaly protection) to prevent dual error codes.
Requirement adjustment: removed smart mode 3500 RPM and no-load detection due to high false-positive rate; unified detection at 5500 RPM.

Update Procedure for these versions must be done in a different order or the light will cease to function.
