[STORM XT52] Firmware Update V1.7

Summary of the Updates to STORM XT52

Released 1-23-2025
Download Version 1.7 here

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

New Features

  • Added coarse and fine adjustment modes for HUE and SAT parameters in HSIC+ mode, with UI switching between adjustment resolutions. Press and hold the Encoder Wheel on a parameter to Change Between Coarse Control with  XX% and Fine Control XX.X%.

  • Added expanded manual fan mode options, including Smart, Full Speed, High Speed, Medium Speed, Low Speed, and Silent modes.

Improvements

  • Added new folder structure for DMX Profiles.

  • Improved error detail reporting across multiple error codes, allowing clearer identification of error types directly on the fixture UI.

  • Improved DMX and CRMX interface handling so the fixture reliably redirects to the correct DMX Status screen when DMX or CRMX data is detected.

  • Improved DMX smooth fade-in and fade-out behavior for more consistent transitions.

  • Updated DMX profile naming to align with the latest DMX profile requirements and improve readability.

  • Improved real-time UI refresh behavior when changing DMX Profiles or DMX Address after Bluetooth auto-configuration.

  • Improved indicator light logic so ignoring a general error restores the indicator light to green when no other errors are present.

  • Improved temperature display layout and error presentation on the status interface.

  • Improved Silent fan mode behavior, with Silent mode power fixed at 600 W and independent of maximum power settings.

  • Improved performance in Sidus Link and Sidus Link Pro for PRO and GO programming, including responsiveness of HSI lighting effects.

  • Improved performance of DMX static color mixing, FX lighting effects, and DMX Strobe behavior.

  • Improved handling of general and minor error conditions so non-critical errors do not interrupt normal operation.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed Strobe function on DMX Control Channel Profiles.

  • Fixed an issue where, after a factory reset and CRMX connection, entering CCT mode would not redirect to the DMX Status screen when CRMX data was present.

  • Fixed an issue where CRMX could stop responding after being toggled off and back on.

  • Fixed an issue where enabling or disabling DMX signal flashing did not take effect immediately.

  • Fixed an issue where the interface did not refresh in real time after modifying DMX Profile or DMX Address following Sidus Link Pro Auto-Patching.

  • Fixed an issue where the fixture could enter the control settings interface instead of the Bluetooth reset interface when deleting a device in Sidus Link.

  • Fixed an issue where DMX Profile names could display incorrectly after Sidus Link Pro Auto Patching when selecting profiles 101 or higher.

  • Fixed an issue where the network cable icon could remain visible after performing a factory reset with a network cable inserted.

  • Fixed an issue where DMX zero-brightness data was not consistently honored under certain conditions.

  • Fixed fan stall detection timing so fan failure errors are reported correctly after sustained stall conditions.

  • Fixed pump error detection behavior to better distinguish pump stall and dry-run conditions.

  • Fixed Fresnel behavior so the Fresnel correctly stops when power is off and resumes when power is on.

Known Issue

  • DMX Control Channel must be activated for 3 seconds in this version and may produce an additional 3 flashes. This will be fixed in a future version.
