Important

• Please review the information below regarding upgrading to a more secure, encrypted https
• Protocol for network-based connection to our browser-based CUI will display a message stating "Your connection is not private" upon the first connection attempt. This is expected behavior and does NOT indicate any security risk. Quite the opposite is the case – once the steps below have been carried out after installing this F/W upgrade – the network communications to the CUI from a network-connected browser will be MORE secure due to the https encryption.
• Please proceed by following these steps:
  1. Click ADVANCED to get to the next pop-up window below.
  2. Select “Continue to [IP-address of the APXD2] (unsafe) to open the CUI in an encrypted browser window using the https protocol.
  3. In subsequent connections to the CUI, the IP address of the device to be connected to can be found in the Shure Update Utility. Please copy this address found in SUU into your browser address window and add “ https:// “  in front of it to open the CUI of your chosen device.
  4. You will now see the CUI with the “Not Secure“ warning next to the address field. Despite this warning, the connection to the APXD2 is now more secure compared to the previous http connection before the update.
• We are currently working on improving this workflow to become more intuitive again, but we depend on external agencies to process our https certification and make it available automatically.

Improvements

Known Issues

• The optional ARRAY_HEIGHT_OVERRIDE value sent via command strings must be resent upon power cycle
• If the ARRAY_HEIGHT_OVERRIDE command is used to set a height that is outside the valid range (122-914 cm), the command will not display an error but internally, the value will be rejected from being set
• Acoustic reflections from tables can sometimes be mistaken by the MXA920 as another source/talker location.  The symptom is a second talker location coordinate set in front of and higher than the actual talker.
  • Workaround: Place Coverage Areas to minimize pick-up of table surface reflections
• Channel Names are not set in the initial attempt of ‘push-to-Dante’. Dante interface resets when Device Name is set.
  • Workaround: Channel Names are set on the 2nd attempt
• MXA920 LED does not stay on after a reboot if the light settings are set to Unmute = Blue, Mute = Red. Other light combinations work as expected after reboot.
• When a muted dynamic coverage area is moved when a dedicated coverage area has also been established, the mix output of the MXA920 has low-level audio from outside the dedicated coverage area limits.
  • Workaround: Unmute and Mute the dynamic coverage area after a dynamic coverage area is moved
