The PhotosynQ team has been working hard to bring you a new, updated platform! Starting now, and continuing over the next few weeks, we will be releasing new versions of the MultispeQ, firmware (with new associated programming tools), and desktop App

MultispeQ Version 2.0. Many users are already receiving the new V2.0 device, which has a lot of updated capabilities. Some of these are obvious (like the nice blinking lights that tell you what the instrument is doing. and others. like compatibility with stomatal new conductance measurements, will be rolled out in the coming weeks.

MultispeQ Firmware Version 2.0 for both V1 and V2 devices. This is a major upgrade with lots of new features and improvements. Although the new version is almost completely backwards compatible, it allows much greater flexibility and powerful programming. We will be introducing the new capabilities in installments over the coming weeks.

PhotosynQ Desktop App. We are releasing a new version of the Desktop App which will replace the current one for the Google Chrome Browser (Chrome App). One reason is that support will be ended for Chrome Apps on Windows and MacOS. The important reason is to accommodate new capabilities of Firmware 2.0 and higher, and give you more powerful analytics, control and visualization tools.

PhotosynQ Android App To make use of the new capabilities of the MultispeQ, the team has been working to update the Android App. You will receive email or popup notifications about how to update your App. (You absolutely need this update to use the new devices, but it will still work with V1.0.).

Dave,

Thanks for the update. I'm looking forward to these improvements.

Will we need to create new projects to accommodate these changes or can existing projects using the old firmware and V1 devices be continued with these upgrades. In other words, can we make valid and direct comparisons between data generated from V1 and V2 devices within the same project using device specific macros?

Dear Prof Dr David Kramer Thanks for the update. can we expect this by the End of this October...? One of my friend is in Florida USA, He will back in November this Year. I asked him to bring the updated version.

Hi Craig!

The current projects will continue to work with the new firmware version.

If you want to use some of the new, advanced features in a new protocol, you'll have to make a new project. However, we are working on new features that will allow you to link these projects to combine data (stay tuned!) Hope that helps.

Dave

Yes, the firmware is already in final stages of testing and can be installed as soon as the Android and Desktop App updates are pushed (should be soon). The V2.0 devices are already being shipped (though there is a backlog of orders that are being filled).
