    Nothing. There was a temp shortage on some internal parts and for a short period some units went out with HW3 stickers.. Original parts are back in stock and all current units are HW2.0 again.

    Control Box firmware update (14.12.2015)
    Release 5.2.1/6.5

    1. Advanced LCC filtering: enabling ALP installation into cars equipped with LCC systems (Laser Cruise control/Laser brake assistants/LaserAntiCrash) such as: Volvo, Mazda, Infinity and others. It will be necessary to properly select your type of vehicle on the configuration web site to enable additional filtering in the ALP unit.
    2. Configuration Profiles! Double-click the Menu button to change between stored A, B or C Profiles. The selected Profile will be announced by voice over the HiFi Control set. This feature is only available on systems with HiFi Controllers. Modify each Profile to your preference on the alpupdate.com website.
    3. Instead of the old SETUP.alp file format the ALPriority now uses the CONFIG.alp and STATS.alp files. The alpupdate.com website will create a CONFIG.alp file to transport your configuration to the ALP. When saving statistics from your ALP to a USB flash drive your ALP will create a STATS.alp file and a CONFIG.alp file. When sending your Statistics for support questions, send in your STATS.alp file only.
    4. Laser support improved
    5. Added support for the Radenso HD+ radar antenna
    6. Various bug-fixes and stability improvements (Radar antennas, etc.).

    Will our existing setup.alp files we have on USB sticks now continue to work with this new firmware or do we have to create new ones?

    Just trying out the configuration website now to see how it works. The ability to copy one profile to another is there, nice! Looks like old setup.alp files can be uploaded as well.

    Setup.alp is not longer used. You will need to make a new Config.alp setup file along with this update.

    Sounds good with the new setup files to choose from!

    Sure would be nice for APPLE to get the new Connect App out so we all can update OTA.......

    It will not be released before the new BT module is released since there are changes that need to be made to support the new BT module. Get one of those $10 to $20 cheap Android phones and use it for just the ALP.. The Android platform is much better since Apple restricts so much on the iPhone platform.

    It will most likely default your settings so if you have no capability at the time to create a new config file then wait to update until you can also load a new configuration file to update the firmware.
