New Device and Frequency Band Support

• Added support for Axient® Digital ADX5D dual-channel portable slot-in receiver.
• Added support for SLX-D® single- and dual-channel wireless receivers.
• Added support for new Shure frequency bands:

  • BLX Q12 | 748.300 MHz – 757.700 MHz
  • PSM300 L26 | 655.125 MHz – 678.875 MHz

Coordination 

• Updated the offline TV channel database for the following countries:
  • United States – post-600 MHz transition
• Added ability to rename or delete the Default RF Zone.
• Fixed an issue where the scan peak hold overlay color was not being saved as part of the show file.
• Fixed an issue where the name of a channel listed on the in-use tab of the frequency list dialog could be blank in one scenario.
• Fixed an issue where it was not possible to sort by dBm or assigned channels in the assign & deploy dialog.
• Fixed an issue where frequency values in the coordination workspace (CWS) list would not update after a custom equipment profile was edited in the equipment profile dialog.
• Fixed an issue where resolving a conflict between stock and custom compatibility profiles by renaming the custom profile would cause some of its device info to display as empty.

Timeline

• Markers can now be multi-selected and assigned a color or deleted as a group.
• Fixed an issue where an invalid system event marker (“Inactive Tx Status”) would be presented when a transmitter was RF muted.
• Fixed an issue where a channel header may not be visible after showing or hiding data streams.

General

• Added support for P10R+ “battery type” IR preset on P10T in-ear monitor transmitters.
• Added error icon to the tabs in charger properties panels for better visibility to the issue.
• The first column of the RF Zone configuration matrix is now fixed when scrolling horizontally.
• Added Antenna Cascade Status label to AXT630 properties panel.
• Fixed an issue where the “Tx Hot” battery alert did not display for VHF, 900 MHz ISM, and 1.x GHz variants of QLX-D and ULX-D systems.
• Fixed an issue where sorting the channel list by channel strip visibility in the monitor view was not working properly.
• Fixed an issue where the ADX/AXT linking capability icon was not presented after relaunching the application or loading a show file.
• Fixed an issue where changing the IP address of an AD610 ShowLink access point and rebooting it would cause the current channel and channel mask to be set to 0.

Known Issues

• Battery type may not persist between power cycles for SLX-D transmitters on firmware version 1.0.13. To resolve, you must set the battery type on the transmitter again.
• ULX-D receivers running firmware version 2.0.28 or earlier may trigger a Settings Conflict when rediscovered after updating their firmware to version 2.1 or later. There is no issue with the device—there was simply a new property added in version 2.1. To dismiss the alert, resolve the Settings Conflict by selecting the properties you wish to keep.
• The Timeline System Event “Active Transmitter Online” for ULXD6/8 transmitters does not always include Transmitter Device ID in the event description.
• SLX and ULX frequencies in Master List mode cannot be manually entered in the Coordination Workspace. They can, however, be coordinated and analyzed.

Notes

• To operate Wireless Workbench successfully, you must run it as an administrator. This includes when updating from within the application using Wireless Workbench version 6.13.1 or prior. Consult your IT department if you have questions about enabling administrator permissions on your computer.
• Opening show files created with older versions of Wireless Workbench may result in the Settings Conflicts dialog opening once the file has loaded. This is due to newly supported hardware parameters that have been introduced with updated firmware versions. To maintain all settings from the show file, select "Keep all settings from: Wireless Workbench."
• Alerts logged when devices first come online may list device parameters and their values as they are being discovered even though the parameter values themselves have not changed.
• The ability to request product labels through the Frequency Band Conversion Tool and Report has been discontinued. The band conversion function is still available for use. For more information, please refer to the WWB Help System in the application, or contact Shure Applications Engineering.
