BC4 Project Editor Updated, new Firmware Released

We've added some great new features to our BC4 Project Editor Software and associated BC4 firmware. The new features are:

• GUI Import/Export. This allows you to easily share GUIs between projects.
• Macro Line Cut & Paste. This speeds up macro creation.
• Selective Uploading. This speeds up testing in multi-BC4 projects, allowing you to upload to a single BC4, instead of ALL BC4s.
• Bug Fixes. There were bound to be a few, right?
• Support for new macro triggering features. This is mostly for developers (who would want to check out the "Macros" section of the latest BC4 Command Protocol documentation for more info)

IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT THIS FIRMWARE UPDATE

So, along with the Project Editor update, comes an update for the BC4 firmware. This firmware update is a little different than in the past. It will return the BC4 to its factory default settings (IP, Name, etc), and it will also require an update to the internal web pages. All of this can be done using the Firmware Updater in the Tools menu of Project Editor (make sure to update Project Editor first).

Remember, updating the BC4 firmware will return the BC4 to its defaults, which means the IP address will most likely have changed. You will want to re-scan the network (click the "Discover" button) for BC4s to find the new IP address before attempting to update the web files (click the "Update Web Pages" button).

Once the updates are complete, you can re-configure the BC4 settings via the internal web pages, or by clicking 'Apply Settings to BC4' in the BC4 properties window in Project Editor.

This will return the BC4 to the settings stored in the project file.
