      • Click on the 3 dots in right side of your project – select “Export”
      • A <your_project_name>.dprj file has been created and saved to default download folder
    • To import into Designer 6:
      • Open Designer 6
      • Go to “File -> Open”
      • Navigate to and select <your_project_name>.dprj
      • Import file dialog appears – click “Choose save location”

Known Issues

  • Defect Description: Under heavy load in a larger network with ANIUSB, MXA920-S, MXN5-C, and MXA-MUTE, it may take over 10 seconds to auto route the virtual devices.
    • Workaround: Relaunch auto route task
  • Designer may freeze on MacOS with Sonoma and Windows 10, if left idle for a long duration (e.g. overnight), and user is not able perform any operation in application
    • Workaround: Quit the application using activity monitor and relaunch the application
  • Automatic conflict resolution is not happening in empty online rooms. This issue occurs after clearing an offline room (room containing only offline P300 and MXA310 devices). If an online device is added to the previously cleared empty room and a removed offline device comes back online, the room will enter the conflicted state and not resolve automatically.
    • Workaround: Plug back device to get authenticated to exhibit proper icon
  • Devices that use the Audinate Dante Ultimo platform appear locked when in a Domain. Whenever an ANIUSB, MXA310, MXN5-C device is added to a DDM domain it appears as locked even when the controller permissions allow users to make changes. The user is unable to deploy, enable encryption or make any Dante related changes.
    • Workaround: Remove device from domain, perform needed tasks such as deploy, update Dante properties, etc., and then add back to domain
  • Creating a room and adding devices, setting a password, and then attempting to import presets for an individual device creates an authentication loop where the user no longer can access the device.
    • Workaround: Restart Designer
  • When adding virtual devices into a room, deploying 60 devices may cause Device Discovery to crash
    • Workaround: Deployment should be done without delay
  • Only one room is displayed in Online rooms list when multiple devices with same room are created
  • The preset slot should get into conflict state because the missing device which is back online has different preset name in slot 1 when compared to other online devices in the room.
  • When using auto position for MXA920-S, if the user starts and cancels the listen operation prior to auto position completing, the auto position may fail.

Bug Fixes

  • Files from the Anritsu spectrum analyzer (.spa format) now import successfully even when no device model is included in the file data
  • For ULXD receivers, the encryption mode will now display correctly after merging virtual devices with online devices. 
  • When using Timeline for devices in Frequency Diversity mode, separate events are logged only for channels that have a change to the FD Lock state
  • Fixed various issues involving Axient Digital in FD-C mode, including mixed use of the frequency and group/channel widgets and deploying frequencies to virtual devices
  • ULX-D receivers updating from firmware 2.0.28 or earlier no longer trigger a Settings Conflict in WWB
  • A virtual and online device with different transmission mode settings can now be merged and resolved with settings conflicts dialog like any other device property
  • WWB no longer creates extra Event Log entries with device parameters and values as that device comes online
  • WWB no longer erroneously displays an empty frequency list in certain circumstances after deploying frequencies to a spectrum manager, disconnecting from the network and deleting all inventory. 

Known Issues

  • When Monitor-only mode enabled and application closed, double clicking a show file to launch the app may not open successfully.
    • Workaround: Close and relaunch WWB. Go to File > Load show file to open the file
  • SLX Analog and ULX Analog frequencies in Master List mode cannot be manually entered in the Coordination Workspace. They can, however, be coordinated and analyzed.

Notes

  • User Guide
  • WWB 6.15.x and WWB7 can be installed on the same machine but cannot run at the same time. 
  • The following features are no longer supported in WWB7 (please use WWB 6.15.x if these features are required):
    • Online UHF-R control and monitoring
    • Frequency Conversion (e.g., converting a J50 receiver to J50A).
    • Import and export inventory
  • Opening show files created with older versions of Wireless Workbench may result in the Settings Conflicts dialog opening once the file has loaded. This is due to newly supported hardware parameters that have been introduced with updated firmware versions. To maintain all settings from the show file, select "Keep all settings from: Wireless Workbench."
