Firmware for alpha-5.xx resp. alpha-8.xx; alpha_neu-e.txt; Issue 12 FEB 2006

Improved in V 2 - 23 JUN 2005: 
The pulse restauration is now improved at special interference pattern.

New in V 3 - 5 JUL 2005: 
a) Battery connection check:
If receiver battery voltage is lower than 3 volts or higher than 10 volts 
-> the alpha will not arm. 
b) Counter-overflow removed (could only occur at transmitters with less than
5 channels and high repetition rate - e.g. when using the MPX car-transmitter).
The error-LED showed "transmit frequency not within +- 1.5 kHz of the nominal
frequency" (had flashed about 2 times per second continously).

Improved in V 4 - 20 JUL 2005:
Jitter filter improved for small changes of the input pulses.
Result is less noisy ditital servos.

Improved in V 5 - 01 SEP 2005 (for alpha-5.xx only):
Jumper recognition for channel 4 <--> channel 5 interchange extended.
- sometimes the channels changed when you connected some special types of servos.

Improved in V 6 - 12 SEP 2005 (for alpha-5.xx only):
Jumper recognition for channel 4 <--> channel 5 interchange extended a second time.
- sometimes the channels changed when you connected digital servos and/or
gyros which are sending pulses to the receiver and/or to a 
programming/configuration tool.

Extended in V 7 - 28 SEP 2005:
Identifies and works now with the "Becker" Transmitter MCS 30.

Improved in V 8 - 06 DEZ 2005 (for alpha-5.xx only):
Jumper recognition for channel 4 <--> channel 5 interchange made as a pseudo 
servo pulse. GWS Servos make less travel when switching on the receiver voltage.
(GWS-Servos are able to move to the mechanical limits when switching on the supply 
curent (without receiver!!!).
The update can be improved by an additional update of the receivers boot loader
in our firm.

Improved in V 9 - 10 FEB 2006:
Error in the powerfail option removed:
If you had selected the option "Activate Powerfail Position" in the "Servo Channel" 
menue of the alpha-soft without activating the "Aux Channel" in the "Powerfail Position" menue
the alpha had limited the servo pulse at this output to the Powerfail Position.
