Release numbering

The Elphel software is released in several forms:

  1. - Live DVD including firmware released at the time LiveDVD was created and software to update the camera firmware to the later release using downloaded firmware image.
  2. - Source tarball on SourceForge
  3. - Binary images + installation scripots
  4. - Source code in CVS.

The software releases on SourceForge (source tarballs, binary images) have 3 dot-separated release numbers, like elphel353-7.1.5.tar.gz for the source code or image353-2.10-7.1.5.tar.gz for binary images to be copied to the camera flash memory

The most recent (and definitely "unstable") software is available on CVS at Sourceforge. The software available only from the CVS has 4 dot-separated numbers, the thirst three matching the last version released as a tarball distribution on SourceForge.

7.1.5

1. Bug fixes, including Known_bugs that lead to the 1x1 pixel ("no image available") images being returned instead of the real ones. 2. Initial Support fro Elphel Model 354-11 camera and precise synchronization ("locking") of multiple Model 353 cameras making them useful fro the stereo imaging

7.1.3

Changed power control in 363 cameras, reduced peak power to 12.5W so cameras work with standard PoE switches (15.4W)
