=======================================
What's new in the Latest Version
=======================================

== System Enhancements ==
* Newer MTU-5C models capable of local “Data Share”, such as model RMT08-A, were optimized in this release to operate at higher ambient temperatures.

== New Features ==
* When using controlled source grids in the map, right-clicking a recording in the recording library, either in the map of the timeline, offers a new menu option that allows displaying the receiver’s geoposition on the map, allowing the user to compare the GPS/GNSS location of the receiver against the grid.
* A new option allows to create or update the origin of a controlled source grid from a recording’s GPS via the “Edit Station” dialog.
* The time series viewer for full-rate and decimated data offers now the option to enable/disable a filter that reduces the visual effects of powerline noise in the time series.

== Bug Fixes ==
* Improved the consistency of options that get enabled/disabled in the context menus of the Process Data tabs, enabling only options that are applicable when the user has selected more than one processed result.
* EMpower PNT CSV exporter now consistently uses semicolons as a delimiter.
* While setting a receiver up to be controlled remotely (see manual DAA10), the manual correctly says that the receiver has to be configured for “Automatic Start”. EMpower checked by mistake that the recording schedule was configured for 1 manual start task and 1 scheduled task instead of checking for “Automatic Start” and warned the user when trying to save the configuration file. This check has now been fixed to check for “Automatic Start”.
* Fixed a bug in EMpower, where exporting the coherence plot data to CSV caused EMpower to crash.

=====================================
Known Issues for the Latest version:
=====================================
* Low frequency PNT(<100s) may have some issue on full rate recordings
* Mixed use of real and generic receiver calibrations could potentially distort phase curves at high frequencies
* If a config file for remote control is created and saved, the network does not turn off automatically the next time unless the user manually unchecks the remote control server.
* In EMpower, map icons re-enable themselves when switching between world and local views of the map. (#9279)
