Latest Raven Firmware Update
Current Firmware update: 08/11/2022
Hey Raven users,
We recently updated the Raven's firmware with fixes to battery drain issues of the Raven. Here is the rundown:
Previous Update: 09/09/2022
App: 3.1.0
During recent testing of the Raven battery, we found that the Raven screen powered off well before the internal USB processor and if the USB charging cable was plugged into the Raven while this processor is still powered, it would continue to run even when the USB charging cable was unplugged. This reduces the battery level while the user assumes the Raven is fully powered off. Users should wait at least 3 seconds after the Raven screen is powered off to ensure the Raven is fully powered off before plugging in the USB charging cable to into the Raven.

This corrects an issue with powering on the Raven shortly after powering it off. There were instances where the Raven would not power back up if the Back/Home button was pressed too soon after power down. This delay has now been shortened from 5 seconds to ½ a second.
Radio: 4.2.31
Raven users will soon have use of all 4 zones (A-D) on the Raven and Einstein strobe. We are finishing up firmware for the PowerMC2 and working with Paul C Buff on firmware for the Einstein strobe for specific use with the Raven.
