Version: 1.1.8.2

Release Notes

Version 1.1.8.2​

  • Implemented hasResource() for CDIL devices (PF6059, PF6140, MO9442), previously unsupported. Delegates to the CDIL SDK's ResourceManager.checkResource() to check whether a resource is actually registered on the device, instead of relying only on the local cache

Version 1.1.8.1​

  • Added SoundStopCapability (extends SoundCapability) for PF Edge printers, exposing stopSound() to stop any sound currently playing, using the new Audio.Stop-x JSON command

Version 1.1.8.0​

  • Added LabelPositionCapability for PF6059, PF6140, and PF Edge printers, exposing:
    • setLabelOffset(horizontalDots, verticalDots) / getLabelOffset() — shifts the printed label position (TSPL SHIFT command on PF Edge, IPrinterExtended on CDIL)
    • setOverfeedDistance(overfeedDots) / getOverfeedDistance() — advances the supply after printing
  • Renamed PrinterInfo.getTotalServicePrinted() to getTotalLabelsPrinted(), now backed by the Stats.Media.TotalLabel-d config key on PF Edge (previously Printer.TotalS.Printed)
  • Updated PF Reference app:
    • Split "Printer Actions" into a new "Supply Actions" section containing Backfeed, plus new Overfeed and Label Offset X/Y controls (enabled only for devices supporting LabelPositionCapability)
    • Updated the device info dialog to show "Total Labels Printed" instead of "Total Service Printed"

Version 1.1.7.1​

  • Added support for eRFIDNoRFIDLabel RFID error alert from PF Edge devices, mapping it to EdgeStatusType.RFID_NO_RFID_LABEL with description "Error: RFID label NOT detected"

Version 1.1.7.0​

  • Added SensoryFeedbackNotificationsCapability for PF Edge devices, exposing real-time telemetry events for haptic and audio feedback:
    • SensoryFeedbackType enum: AUDIO, HAPTIC
    • SensoryFeedbackState enum: ONGOING, STOPPED
    • SensoryFeedbackNotificationCallback interface: onSensoryFeedbackNotification(SensoryFeedbackType, SensoryFeedbackState)
    • setSensoryFeedbackNotificationCallback(callback) on the capability to register/unregister listeners
  • Handles four Alert.PeriSta telemetry events from the PF Edge printer: eHapticFeedbackInProgress, eAudioPlaying, eHapticFeedbackStopped, eAudioPlayStopped
  • Updated PF Reference app:
    • Merged the former separate "Audio" and "Haptic Response" sections into a single collapsible "Sensory Feedback" section
    • Added "Enable Sensory Feedback Notifications" switch (off by default, enabled only when connected to a PF Edge device); when active, displays live status messages for audio and haptic feedback events

Version 1.1.6.9​

  • Added a new overload to the printImage function in PrinterAdapter so we can now specify a backfeed to the image to be printed if needed (now also to the printImage(Bitmap...) overload)

Version 1.1.6.8​

  • Added a new overload to the printImage function in PrinterAdapter so we can now specify a backfeed to the image to be printed if needed

Version 1.1.6.7​

  • Added PFEdge support for the new eMotorStall system-status error
  • Fixed PFEdge calibrateRFID() to send the required xRunRfidCal value for RFID.Cal.Execute-x

Version 1.1.6.6​

  • Added BatteryChargingStatusCapability and BatteryChargingStatusCallback for PFEdge devices, based on the Alert.SysSta event and its SMB AVG Time to Full field
  • Updated charging status callbacks to notify both on charging-state transitions and on remaining-time updates while the battery is charging
  • Fixed PFEdge BatteryInfo.getRemainingTimeToFullCharge() parsing to convert SBattery.TimetoChgdFull-d values into minutes
  • Updated the PF Reference app status bar to show the charging state and remaining charge time inline with the printer status

Version 1.1.6.5​

  • Added isCharging() and getRemainingTimeToFullCharge() to BatteryInfo for PFEdge devices, based on the SBattery.TimetoChgdFull-d configuration item

  • Implemented SoundSelectionCapability (extends SoundCapability) for PFEdge devices, exposing:
    • getSoundEnabled() / setSoundEnabled(bool): enable or disable scanner audio
    • getScanOKSound() / setScanOKSound(int): assign a sound to Good Scan events (values: Good Scan, Lookup Pass, Lookup Fail, Scan No Read, Scan Error)
    • getNoReadSound() / setNoReadSound(int): assign a sound to No Read events

Version 1.1.5.19​

  • Added Haptic Response capability

Version 1.1.5.18​

  • Improved RFID detection on PFEdge devices.
  • Refactored getDeviceInfo on PFEdge devices to prevent possible timeouts when requesting many configuration settings at once.
