Notes

• User Guide
• To operate this version of SLX-D with other Shure networked systems, see the following list of recommended versions:
  • Wireless Workbench 6.15.4 or 7.0.1
  • Shure Update Utility 2.8.4

Improvements

• New hardware support
• Event log message updates
• Bug fixes

Known Issues

• Shure Update Utility will fail to discover on first connection an ADX5D on Mac M1 machines running macOS Monterey 12.
  • Workaround: Update to macOS Ventura 13 or higher or restart your Mac computer and ADX5D will successfully be discovered.
• SUU fails to launch after installation on macOS Ventura 13 or macOS Sonoma 14.
  • Workaround: Navigate to System Settings -> Privacy and Security, scroll down to SUU notification, click on Open Anyway, and enter the password.
• Device discovery is delayed by up to 20 seconds when the device network includes GLX-D+ receivers running version 2.0.17 or previous.
  • Workaround: Update GLX-D+ to the latest version (2.0.18 or later)
• ULX-D devices running versions prior to 1.4.8 must be updated to 1.4.8 first before updating to 2.0.28. After 2.0.28 is installed, ULX-D devices can be updated to the latest available firmware version.  See ULX-D Firmware Update and Issues.
• ULX-D devices that are downgrading to 1.5.6 may report a false failure.
  • Workaround: Because this is a false failure, closing the send updates window and going to the main page, Shure Update Utility will show green for the firmware version.
• Microflex Wireless devices running versions prior to 5.2.2 must be updated to 5.2.2 first before updating to a later firmware version.

Important

• In most cases, you should install the latest version of Shure Update Utility to update your devices. However, certain legacy devices require older versions of SUU or a different tool:
  • Use Shure Update Utility 2.4.8 to update firmware on GLX-D, UHF-R, SHA900, and KSE1500 systems or for 32-bit support.
  • Use Shure Update Utility 2.4.1 to update firmware on PSM1000 systems running firmware 1.1.0 or earlier.
  • Use the MXC Firmware installer to update MXC products, including DIS-CCU.
  • Use the DFR22 Software and a PC running Windows 8.1 or earlier to update a DFR22.
  • Update MOTIV devices using the Motiv app (mobile and desktop) and AONIC devices the Play app.
  • Update Stem devices using the Stem Upgrader software
• Note: Installing SUU 2.4.8 or SUU 2.4.1 will replace the most recent version of SUU on your machine.

Compatibility

• Windows
  • Windows 10, Intel Only
  • Windows 11, Intel Only
• macOS
  • macOS Monterey 12, Intel and Apple Silicon
  • macOS Ventura 13, Intel and Apple Silicon
  • macOS Sonoma 14, Intel and Apple Silicon

Bug Fixes

• This hotfix addresses the following anomalies:
  • In Designer release 4.7.35, whenever the Coverage Map of a live 920 is displayed, the lobe placements are incorrect when Auto Coverage is Off. All the lobes are “stacked” on each other.
  • Meanwhile, the web UI for the 920 in this scenario is correct, as well as the Designer 4.7.35 SDC for the 920. It’s only the Designer 4.7 Coverage Map that is the issue (and only when Auto Coverage is Off).
  • For this issue, in the Designer 4.7 Coverage Map, the x/y/z values for each lobe are correct (even though the visualization is incorrect). However, if a user tries to manually overwrite the x/y/z positions, they will still take effect, but the visualization in the Coverage Map will not change.
  • For this issue, in the Designer 4.7 Coverage Map, if the user clicks and drags a lobe, the change will take effect on the actual 920, and the updated position will be shown correctly in Designer (but only for the lobes that have been manually clicked and dragged).

Pre-Upgrade Requirements

• Multiple versions of Designer cannot be installed on the same computer

Initial Release

Notes

• User Guide
• To operate this version of MXA901 with other Shure networked systems, see the following list of recommended versions:
  • Shure Update Utility 2.8.4

Improvements

• Support for new MXCWAPT hardware components
• Bug fixes

Known Issues

MXCWAPT

• MXCWAPT FW update with older versions of SUU may result in SUU reporting a false update failure, when update was actually successful.  If this occurs, verify FW on APT via GUI or LCD.
• When downgrading from FW 7.0, to FW4 or lower, the process has to be done in two separate steps: First upload the MXCW640 FW to the APT via the SUU and downgrade the discussion units. Secondly downgrade the MXCWAPT from SUU.

MXCWAPT Component GUI

• When running Windows-Version:1809, cannot access APT CGUI when opened via DNS Name applied directly to the browser search bar or with Shure Web Device Discovery Application shortcut. Opening APT CGUI via IP address works as designed.

MXCW640

• MXCW640 Left/Right buttons incorrect LED indication when using FIFO conference mode with Dual-Delegate or while identifying units while in Request List.
• In very rare occasions, MXCW640 touch screen will not respond to screen touch.  Resolved by power cycling unit.

TPCI

• Once MXCW640s are set to Ambient Role, unit will no longer respond to TPCI strings that are indexed based off of seat number.
• Once MXCW640s are set to Ambient Role, and rebooted, unit will no longer send TPCI strings when changing role to other than Ambient (Chairman, Delegate, Interpreter etc). Resolved by power cycling the unit, while not in Ambient role.
• Rare TPCI errors reporting a single MXCW640’s when transitioning roles from Ambient. Resolved by restarting unit.

Software

• Shure Discovery Application missing MXCWAPT AES67 indication.
