Enhancements and Improvements

Integration of MxThinClient into MxManagementCenter (Version 1.7 and Higher)

This firmware release allows integrating MxThinClient into MxManagementCenter (MxMC). You can use an MxThinClient thus integrated to show live streams of cameras on a monitor or TV connected to the MxThinClient via HDMI. The communication between MxMC and the MxThinClient uses the MxMessageSystem. Besides setting up the MxThinClient in the device tree of MxMC, you also need to configure the MxMessageSystem in the MxThinClient accordingly. It is also required that the MxMC computer and the MxThinClient are using the same time server to stay in sync. This is a prerequisite for successful operation of the MxMessageSystem.

Checking the Standard Access Credentials

When setting up an MxThinClient device with this software release for the first time or after updating from release 1.0 to this release, the device will check the access credentials and will force you to change the default password ("meinsm") if this password is still used.

Other Improvements

Connections to Camera via HTTPS Protocol

To access the images from cameras via https and the secure SSL protocol, you can activate the additional SSL/TLS support option.

Optional Suppression of Connection Errors

If you want to skip error messages of connection failures in sequencer mode, you can now open the Images Sources dialog and activate the new Skip Errors option.

Loading Image Sources

While configuring the image sources in MxThinClient, the device now shows a "Loading..." message, since this process may take several seconds for many image sources.
