Information about the IMPEX release 5.8.1
Release Type: Patch
The IMPEX 5.8.1 release
This is a patch release fixing several issues that most customers should not be affected by. The fixes are for when registering a new installed station with an ICC and for non-networked (a.k.a offline) USBProtect installations. When applying the 5.8.0 software bundle for upgrading to 5.8.0 the AV definitions information was not correctly propagated internally which basically meant the station would refuse to scan anything.
USBProtect fixes
- If the Lock Station setting (using NFC card unlock) was set on the configuration card, the station would end up just showing a spinner.
- Offline upgrade led to station not being usable for scanning
- Initial registration check was invalid, causing problems when installing new stations
