New Firmware update 3.4!

Writer's picture: TCS DCCTCS DCC

We have released firmware update 3.4 for the UWT-50E and UWT-100 throttles! Be sure to update your throttles via the TCS DEPOT. UWT-50E:

Release 3.4 makes the following changes and improvements to the UWT-50E:

- Fixes bug when the locomotive speed would jump to 126 unexpectedly after the throttle has been sitting idle for some time.

- Adds a configuration option for disabling or changing the sensitivity of the ballistic tracking (acceleration) for the encoder knob. Menu > 8 Settings > 1 Throttle Settings > 3 Drive Settings > Encoder Ballistics > Off/Low/Mid/High. The default of this setting will be Mid, whereas throttle software until 3.2 had the same behavior as Low. Changing the setting to Off will disable all ballistics and the knob will control the speed at a constant rate with the rotation.

- Improved behavior when the encoder knob is turned very fast.

There are no changes made in this release for the UWT-50P.


UWT-100:

Release 3.4 makes the following changes and improvements to the UWT-100:

- Fixes bug when the locomotive speed would jump to 126 unexpectedly after the throttle has been sitting idle for some time.

- Adds a configuration option for disabling or changing the sensitivity of the ballistic tracking (acceleration) for the encoder knob. Menu > 8 Settings > 1 Throttle Settings > 3 Drive Settings > Encoder Ballistics > Off/Low/Mid/High. The default of this setting will be Mid, whereas throttle software until 3.2 had the same behavior as High. Changing the setting to Off will disable all ballistics and the knob will control the speed at a constant rate with the rotation.

- The sensitivity of the thumbwheel is adjusted down in the text entry window to match that of the menus. This will make it easier to select individual characters and enter text.
