We improved the WR21 and want to inform you with this post about the details. Thank you for your Feedback!
General information about Updates = Release Candidates (=RC):
Webpanels are PT status and we delivered so far Webpanels with RC1, RC2 and RC4. We took your market feedback (forum, customers, sales, etc.) and improved step by step. Currently the new Webpanel orders are delivered with RC4.
What’s new with which RCx:
Everything what was improved in RC3 is also included in RC4, RC5 etc.
RC3:
- IP address is permanent changeable
- IP address is easier to modify (only two fields are required to fill in (Ip address & gateway)
- The bug that hard—and software naming of ETH1 and ETH2 was mixed is solved
- The keyboard is now possible to set invisible (described in manual)
- Swipe gesture to exit from kiosk mode (3 fingers in lower left corner)
- Wifi module is enabled to use
- Update of Apphub agent to 21245.2a7a8e2.20220908
- Update Kisok app to v1.0.6
- Update Webstation app to version 104.0.5112.69
- Update Chromium app to 104.0.5112.97
RC4:
- We enabled that Webpanels can be updated easily by the customer himself. So, it is possible to update to RC5, RC6, etc in the field via App “OTP” which is preinstalled in RC4
- For all devices with RC1 or RC2 or if you do not know which RC you have:
- Please check: "settings" > "about tablet" > build date
- If it is ≥ 20221122 you have nothing to do/ you already have RC4.
- If you do not have this build date and want RC4 please write me an email: greta.bernard@de.bosch.com or contact STS Peter Budsky. We provide you the new firmeware via ad-hock and the manual steps (Chapter 4): for the update you need your Webpanel, a power supply and an empty USB Stick (for the file we provide).
RCx – what we plan for the next release candidate:
What we cannot solve due to restrictions:
- Possibility to install other browsers -> License topic
- Chromium (open source) allows not to disable the addressline in kiosk mode. We can only over the workaorund woth webview app.
