Some additional bug fixes and layout and speed improvements for the Netron Central Utility.
The installer contains updated firmware as well, simply try the firmware update button and see if it pushes to all devices without issues.
We are looking for feedback especially on RDM10 firmware updates.

For Beta 3 you asked that we uninstall the previous version before installing Beta 3. Does this apply to Beta 4 as well? Will this be required for all CLU updates?
Finally had 2 seconds to try clu. It didnt come up when i fid a scan. It shows up in onyx no problem. Unit is en4 fresh out of the box with firmware 2.8. Let me know what elae you would like me to try. I have urned advast off as well. Windows 10 computer with 2. Range ip address.
I added clu. Then it Looks like it installs under netron central utility. Private wasnt ticked and now is and works. Well it finds it. I can click the actual unit and looksmlike i can change settings. As well as identify. But the side tab nothing seems to work. It populated with devices presets ect. But nothing happens if i click on it.
Hi Matthias, I was just curious — with this beta, is it more the Central Utility that is beta or both the utility and the firmware is beta? We are installing a few EN12’s and EP2’s that could benefit from a centralised interface, and would be totally fine with a beta front end (and it just meant a few quirks and weirdness), I’m a little less brave with quirks and weirdness in firmware that effects operation as opposed to configuration (I appreciate that you can’t guarantee anything).
Would appreciate your advice! Otherwise, is there any form of roadmap or eta for the final release?
It would be great if you could also make changes to port and device settings directly from the CLU instead of it just opening the web GUI.
It should auto-refresh after changing a devices IP settings instead of having to do it manually. Or if it could just auto-rediscover that particular device.
Uploaded firmware to an RDM10 with no issues.
Ran into a bug with changing the device name from the CLU. It worked fine for an RDM10 but with an EN4 changing the device name in the CLU didn’t change anything at the unit. It did seem like it was saving somewhere since the new name would persist when refreshing the CLU but it never changed on the device screen. Even after power cycling the EN4 and closing and reopening the CLU program the new name persisted in the CLU but not at the device.
