Q-SYS Designer

Q-SYS Designer Software 7.1.0 Change Log

• [NEW] – Introduced the Q-SYS Asset Manager, available via the Tools menu, to allow for easy installation of new plugins and updating of plugins directly from within Q-SYS Designer.
• [NEW] – Introduced the Network Services manager on the Q-SYS Core, accessible via Configurator or web browser, allowing system administrators to disable unused network services on a per-network adapter level, which can increase the security of the Q-SYS system and help to satisfy customer-specific security requirements.
• [NEW] – Added new External USB Audio Device inventory components, enabled via properties for the Core 110, TSC-7t touchscreen, and I/O USB Bridge, allowing you to connect a standard USB headset, speakerphone, or similar to a compatible Q-SYS device and process the incoming and outgoing audio streams in the Q-SYS audio DSP.
• [NEW] – Added the Date/Time control component, allowing you to insert a date/time text box into your design. This is especially useful for adding the local date and time to a user control interface (UCI).
• [NEW] – Added the Selector control component, allowing you to easily switch between a number of configured values to send to a downstream component.
• [NEW] – Added the Value Stepper control component, allowing you to easily increase or decrease values of a downstream component in either gain or percentage terms.
• [NEW] – Added the UCI Layer Controller control component, allowing you to show or hide individual layers in a specified UCI and page.
• [CORE] – To make Q-SYS Cores less vulnerable to network attacks, the FTP Server on the Core has been removed. If you use FTP (implemented in custom software or a standard FTP program, such as FileZilla) to upload or download media files to or from a Q-SYS Core, QSC recommends that you wait to upgrade to version 7.1 until you can update your client software to use either HTTP or HTTPS. As a more secure alternative to FTP, use HTTPS.
• [INVENTORY] – The Loudspeakers > Custom Voicing component now supports FIR filtering, adding highly accurate and complex EQ processing when using CXD-Q and DataPort-enabled amplifiers with 3rd party manufacturer loudspeakers.
• [INVENTORY] – CXD-Q 4-channel amplifiers now support up to 1024 FIR taps.
• [INVENTORY] – The Touchscreen Status / Control component includes a new 'Touch Activity' control, which illuminates whenever the touchscreen is actively being touched.
• [SOFTPHONE] – The Status/Control component includes a new Tone Control  > Force Local Ringback option, which forces the selected Ring Tone file to be played and overrides any audible tone sent by the remote party.
• [SOFTPHONE] – In Administrator, you can now optionally set the expiration interval, in seconds, for the registration at the VoIP PBX.
• [SOFTPHONE] – In Administrator, you can now configure a Softphone as a SIP trunk on a PBX.
• [CAMERAS] – The PTZ-12x72 and PTZ-20x60 camera Status/Control components and USB Video Bridge have a new Recall Speed control, allowing you to adjust the speed of camera motor movements when recalling PTZ coordinates in a saved Snapshot.
• [CAMERAS] – In Administrator, the new Exiting Privacy Image option allows you to set a custom image to display when the camera transitions out of Privacy Mode.
• [BLOCK CONTROLLER] – A new System block can be used to return a selected Q-SYS environment variable, including the complete Q-SYS Designer version string (Version), individual components of the version (Major Version, Minor Version, Build Version), and whether or not the design is emulating (Is Emulating).
• [BLOCK CONTROLLER] – A new trigger control block can be used to trigger a defined control when, for example, a condition is met.
• [BLOCK CONTROLLER] – A new after time block can be used to create a single event or a series of events that execute after a specified period of seconds.
• [QSD] – Moved the ‘Disable PTPv2 on LAN B’ option from the Design Properties to the new Network Services manager. (See the Release Notes for details.)
• [QSD] – Moved the toggle to enable or disable HoverMon audio from the Q-SYS Designer Preferences menu to the new Network Services manager on the Core. (The audio driver is still configured in Preferences.)
• [QSD] – For external control and scripting, added an option to easily obtain a list of all controls for a named component (Tools > View Named Component Info).
• [QSD] – Added the ability to set zoom levels for individual schematic and UCI pages using the new "Zoom to" control at the bottom of the main window.
• [QSD] – Added the ability to select UCI elements and move them to the horizontal center or vertical center of the canvas (Tools > Align > Center Horizontal in Page and Center Vertical in Page).
• [QSD] – Added the ability to enable and disable configured Hard Link IP addresses in the Designer Preferences menu and UCI Viewer.
•  [UCI] – Moved the Clean Screen Button, Log Off Button, Navigation Button, and URL Button components from Components > Layout > UCI in the schematic library to Components > UCI Buttons.
• [LUA] – Added HttpClient functions, allowing you to combine URL components into a complete encoded URL string, encode a comma-separated list of parameters, and encode and decode strings.
• [LUA] – Added Notifications functions, allowing you to subscribe to a notification, publish a notification with specified data, and unsubscribe from a notification. (This allows scripts running within the same Core to communicate with each other.)
• [LUA] – The former Qlib functions have moved to new Crypto and Network categories. (See the Release Notes for details.)
• [LUA] – Added System functions, which can be used to return the Q-SYS environment version, including the complete Q-SYS Designer version string or individual components of the version.
• [MISC] – Added optional Averaging Time Constant controls to the Responsalyzer component (enabled via the component properties).
• [MISC] – Added a new LKFS Meter (BETA) component to Audio Components > Meters.
• [MISC] – Changed the default 'Max slope' property for the Low-Pass Filter and High-Pass Filter from 48 to 24 dB/Oct.
• [MISC] – Added optional 'Q-Factor' controls to the Parametric Equalizer component, selectable via the component properties.
• [FIX] – DSP resource usage has been returned to values similar to version 6.2.
• [FIX] – In Block Controller, using certain characters in a debug print string (for example, ' and \) no longer generates errors in Debug Output.
• [FIX] – When configuring Block Controller to navigate layers in a UCI, the selected transitions for "Slide Top" and "Slide Bottom" are no longer reversed when running the UCI.
• [FIX] – If you include a "TSC set page" block in your Block Controller configuration, it no longer converts to Uci.SetScreen code in Lua, and no longer results in an error in the Debug Output window.
• [FIX] – If you deploy a design containing the IIR Custom Filter component to a Core, the component's Response controls (Magnitude, Magnitude/Phase, Impulse, Load Coefficients) are no longer missing from the control panel.
• [FIX] – I/O-8 Flex Mic Detection has been restored to the Flex In component control panel.
• [FIX] – Script "total load" percentage no longer can exceed 100% in the Inspector.
• [FIX] – In a redundant network configuration, audio over core-to-core Q-LAN streams no longer temporarily drops for two to five seconds on both LAN-A and LAN-B if either LAN interface is disconnected.
• [FIX] – If a button is set to an image, and the image does not have square dimensions, the image is displayed properly in a UCI.
• [FIX] – You can now group a selection of UCI elements containing a hidden group.
