This firmware needs 5.1.8.5 or later installed on the unit


New features in 6.0.1 since 6.0.0
================================================================================

6.0.1:F1
Improved webserver and filesystem robustness to increase overall minimum 
cybersecurity level.


New features in 6.0.0 since 5.1.8.5
================================================================================

6.0.0:F1
New Linux based platform that is easier to update and maintain than the 
previous platform.

6.0.0:F2
The web interface has been updated and is now based on Axis Device Assistant.

6.0.0:F3
The new web interface has enhanced the way the users can configure views. It is 
possible to create multiviews and individually assign a video source to an area 
of the view. Views can be named to identify them more easily.

6.0.0:F4
More options to configure a sequence view. The sequence order can easily be 
changed, and each view can have an individual duration in the sequence. It is 
also possible to mix single views with multiviews in the sequence.

6.0.0:F5
It is possible to set a maximum bitrate per profile for Axis cameras. This 
ensures that the decoder will not be choked with too much video data and 
prevent artifacts.

6.0.0:F6
Implemented firmware rollback which makes it possible to roll back to a 
previous installed 6.x firmware. Rollback to firmware's on the 5.x platform 
is not supported.

6.0.0:F7
Possibility to configure the desired latency in an interval ranging from 
100ms - 2000ms with the parameter root.Decoder.Latency, available in plain 
config. High decoding or network load might still lead to higher latencies than 
configured.

6.0.0:F8
Added possibility to prevent screen tearing by enabling vertical sync with the 
parameter root.Decoder.Vsync, available in plain config. This should only be 
used be used for single views as the decoder can only effectively sync one view 
with the monitor.

6.0.0:F9
A user will now be assigned a privilege level (Administrator/Operator/Viewer).

6.0.0:F10
New format for exporting configuration files. Implemented the possibility to 
select any subset of "Video Sources", "Display Configuration", 
"System Settings" and "Users" for exporting. It is still possible to import 
configurations from the 5.x platform.

6.0.0:F11
Configuring parameters through the param.cgi API is now possible through the 
web interface's "Plain config" page. Added param.cgi action "listdefinitions".

6.0.0:F12
Implemented the possibility to restart the decoding process via API call

6.0.0:F13
Implemented ONVIF API for uploading pkcs12 certificates (LoadPkcs12Request) 
and for downloading pkcs12 signing requests (GetPkcs10Request2). 
Added ONVIF method for downloading certificate information 
(GetCertificateInformation).

6.0.0:F14
Implemented VAPIX API apidiscovery.cgi
The AXIS API Discovery service makes it possible to retrieve information about 
APIs supported on their products
https://www.axis.com/vapix-library/subjects/t10175981/section/t10131704/display

6.0.0:F15
Implemented VAPIX API time.cgi
The Time API makes it possible to get and set time, date and time zone 
information
https://www.axis.com/vapix-library/subjects/t10175981/section/t10140267/display

6.0.0:F16
Implemented VAPIX API ntp.cgi

6.0.0:F17
Implemented VAPIX API firmwaremangement.cgi

6.0.0:F18
Implemented VAPIX API network_settings.cgi

6.0.0:F19
Implemented VAPIX API ssh.cgi

6.0.0:F20
Implemented VAPIX API basicdeviceinfo.cgi

6.0.0:F22
Implemented VAPIX API upnp.cgi

6.0.0:F23
Implemented VAPIX API mdnssd.cgi

6.0.0:F24
Implemented VAPIX API systemready.cgi


Corrections in 6.0.2 since 6.0.1
================================================================================

6.0.2:C1
Optimized for better production flow.


Corrections in 6.0.1 since 6.0.0
================================================================================

6.0.1:C1
Self-signed certificates created by the device was not saved.

6.0.1:C2
Bugfix for importing configuration files that were created on an earlier 
firmware version.

6.0.1:C3
The parameter root.System.RootPwdSet was updated first after a reboot which was 
causing problem when adding new unconfigured T8705 devices in ACS.


Corrections in 6.0.0 since 5.1.8.5
================================================================================

6.0.0:C1
Removed IP addresses in error messages displayed on the monitor due to security 
concerns.
