New TEC-X features and improved System Description

Improvements

• New TEC-X features include significantly improved performance, multiple pages, anti-aliased font, icons, and configurable button state properties. Adding and configuring TEC-X devices is now easier than ever, with the introduction of TEC-X blocks users load TEC-X as part of their Tesira layout, all in one step

• Users with existing TEC-X devices, please note:

• After upgrading a system to Tesira 4.4.0, existing TEC-X 1000 and TEC-X 2000 products will be in an unconfigured state. You must perform manual steps to migrate your existing TEC-X configurations. Please refer to he help documentation or visit http://www.biamp.com/tecxupgrade.

• For new configurations created with Tesira 4.4.0, TEC-X 1000 and TEC-X 2000 devices are now configured as standard Tesira Control Blocks residing on the layout.
