Folks,

quadEM R4-1 is now available.  

This is from the release notes:

************************************
- Added new AcquireMode record to support both Continuous and One-shot acquisition modes. 
  Previously only continuous acquisition was supported. 
  One-shot acquires the data from one AveragingTime and then stops acquisition. 
  One-shot mode can be used with either triggered or free-running acquisition.

  Note: Correct operation of the One-shot mode and triggered modes on the AH501D requires firmware version 2.0 or later. 
  Previous firmware versions have bugs that prevent correct operation in these modes. The firmware can be updated in the field. 

- The Acquire record was changed from a bo to a busy record to support use with the sscan record when AcquireMode=One-shot. 

- Added optional "modelName" parameter to the constructors and configuration commands for the startup scripts. 
  This allows one to specify what model of AH401x or AH501x is being used. 
  The driver attempts to detect this automatically from the firmware version it reads from the device, 
  but some of the Elettra units have strange firmware version strings so this can fail. 

- Fix to allow fast feedback to work on APS_EM. 

- Added new Firmware stringin record containing the firmware version from the device. 

- Changed to use R2-0 of areaDetector. It only uses the ADCORE and ADBINARIES modules.
