Summary of the Updates to STORM 1200x
Optimizations
- Fan Startup: Optimized startup speed and error detection timing. Fans now spin for 2 seconds before entering PID adjustment, with a broadened low-speed detection threshold.
- Fan Speed Process: Enhanced handling to address rare cases of fan error reporting.
- DMX Connection Status: Improved BT connection logic for CRMX-TX state with DMX data, ensuring smoother status updates after DMX disconnection.
- Increased Color Temp Range for DMX Control to 10,000K.
- CRMX TX and RX switching has been improved.
Bug Fixes
- Master-Slave mode moved to the Control Settings menu.
- Batch Update moved to the Firmware Update interface.
- DMX Status Bar: Replaced "White Light Standard" mode with "Studio Mode."
- DMX Effects Execution: Fixed issue where High-Speed Shooting mode could be activated via buttons during DMX effects execution.

- CCT Lighting Effects: Added a default GM parameter value of 10 for effects with CCT control.
- ETH-to-DMX Conversion: Resolved data refresh error causing momentary light flicker.

- DMX-Controlled Effects: Differentiated control behaviors for XY-FX and CCT-FX, with CCT adjustments disabled by default under XY-FX profiles.
- High-Speed Shooting and PWM: Fixed issue where combining DMX fade-in/out effects with High-Speed Shooting mode caused PWM dimming to freeze the light.
- GM Parameter Transmission: Resolved GM parameter range issues for app compatibility.
- Silent Mode: Fixed issue where custom lighting effects appeared excessively dim.
- Master-Slave Upgrades: Fixed issues with slave units not turning off or failing to revert to their original Light Mode after flickering during upgrade failures.
