Bug Fixes:
Command + K
your way to searching for your locations faster ๐๐ฝCan't find a scene? We updated the language to reflect that in the scenes modal.
Opening up a location and watching the app crash, well it's not your internet! We patched it up so the app doesn't get overwhelmed.
A few days without the devices modal really left us missing out, but it decided to rejoin the team.
The app was so focused on delivering the best terminal experience that it forgot to focus on the main view - so we reminded it of the importance of sharing it's focus with both.

Company Users: Don't understand how to calculate the var_1 for a PHD channel? We struggled with it too, but our user-friendly version is now out and sitting in the scenes.

The devices modal will stay in edit mode until you have decided that you are done with it, by clicking the green check โ
Our ๐ are broken no longer!
The adding devices flow got some polish: we renamed "close" with "done"; we made adding devices more consistent no matter how many locations you add; after you click done, the blue plus and green check will disappear

Our overwhelmed app decided to take a break every time you made a new scene ๐ฑ, but after plenty of rest, it should no longer need to crash.
Did the scene names look a little funny to you with words like `INTMotion TimeOut: false`?!? Well, don't worry, it's back to its normal name of `Motion Timeout`.
Trying to edit an action, but getting gated by the Done button and the lack of buttons to click? For the meantime, we rolled back to the old way of making scenes, until we can further assess what went wrong and how to make it more user-friendly.
Refresh is no longer clearing your changes when you edit a name in config ๐, but not to worry, you can always edit it again if you want to change it.
Nothing is worse than having a button, hiding behind another button so the Edit button in devices and scenes scooched over to the bottom right.
Version 4.36
Release date: 9/18/20
New Features:
Calling all company users: You can now edit your device names in the config tab
Another move for the devices and scenes! They headed up to the top of the page to make it easier to view uniformly as you hop from one location to the next.

Search bars have downsized for devices and scenes.
Version 4.35
Release date: 9/4/2020

Times are changing and so is our UI: Devices and Scenes have found a new home in the main view. We hope this will enhance the hierarchy, save you time, and remove some extra clicks from your user flow!
We got a lot of data to keep up with, but remembering what each data point means no longer has to be one of them! Check out datapoints descriptions in config by hovering over the dname column.
Looking to delete a device while in the config tab? Look no further than our new delete device button. ๐
The search bar and the OTA checkbox just got a little more font awesome-y!

We shook things up with the users tab by reordering the navigation ๐
We added some extra precautions to make sure you don't accidentally delete your location ๐คญ
Bug Fixes:
If your sublocation has a sublocation, the parent will always come first in the naming convention.
The grace period sliders will hide unless they are selected to provide you with a more uniform flow.
The normal hours grace period was confused ๐คฆโโ๏ธ, but it will no longer reset your sliders to 80% and 16s fade.
Version 4.33.2
Release date: 5/30/20
New Features:
*Terminal:
The set command became more human friendly, and now allows you to optionally pass the name of a parameter instead of the index (ex:

help set

*New terminal commands:

Bug fixes:
PHD and DCDIM PWM levels are critical so you don't have to wait for their status to appear anymore.
No matter how enlarged your web app screen is now the slider won't grow with it.
*The terminal: Will no longer print duplicate mac addresses when using the
getdata
command. Working in the terminal and accidentally x out no longer clears your history. Keep in mind, refreshing the page still will clear the terminal. The background was too transparent last month and it was hard to see, but we darkened it up.
*For company users and above
Version 4.33.0
Release date: 04/14/2020
New Features:
We fiddled with the app's logic so that if a location has scenes in it and no devices, then the devices tab will not auto show to remove an extra step for you.
Bug Fixes:
For all the company and admin users out there, we prioritized cleaning up the terminal for two major reasons:
The terminal would empty out, so after running your command the screen turned black and all your work was lost. ๐ข
The help section in the terminal was outdated and not super helpful.
Within the app, you have the ability to rename your devices from the default device name and mac address. However, the data worker would randomly decide to rename some custom names, but we told it to stop and it listened.

Occupancy Chart! As of now, we show you how many hours each location has been occupied (and how many it was vacant). We will continue to extend this feature to provide more useful data through these charts.

Scheduling locations were not showing scene buttons
If all devices successfully synced, the spinner kept spinning

Version 4.0
New interface streamlines commissioning into three simple steps
Release date: 03/25/2019
Step 1 is to add a location. Thereโs a cool new feature here called Room Type, with predefined location settings based on common configurations.
Step 2 is to add devices to your location.
Heads Up!
You can search for devices fast by typing in the last four digits of their MAC addresses, found on the sticker provided with each device.
Step 3 is to configure your location settings. This drawer slides up when youโre ready to add settings to your location.
*Important: Before following any of the steps above, check with your Amatis representative to confirm your siteโs Amatis Border Router(s) (AMBR) has been secured before going any further. If this has not happened yet, your representative can schedule this for you.
