A list of important changes to FarmBot OS organized by major version.
_This file is parsed by the FarmBot Web App._
# v6
* The calculation for `encoder scaling factor` has changed in v6.0.1 to `10000 * (motor resolution * microsteps) / encoder resolution`. If you are using encoders and have previously changed this setting, please check the updated value.
* The change also increases accuracy for FarmBots with `use encoders for positioning` enabled while using the default `encoder scaling factor` value. If you have previously enabled `use encoders for positioning` please check movements to tool positions or other high-accuracy requirement movements.
* Sequence errors will now send an emergency stop command, locking FarmBot.

* If you are using `Farmduino (Genesis v1.3)`, check that `FIRMWARE` is correct after upgrading. If it isn't, choose the correct value from the drop-down.

# v7
* FarmBot OS now uses Python 3 rather than Python 2 when running Farmware. If you have added custom or 3rd-party Farmware, please check to make sure your FarmBot is still running as expected.

# v8
This release uses an improved Farmware API:
<br>
* If you have previously added custom or 3rd-party Farmware, you will need to reinstall the Farmware using the new manifest format.
* If you are a Farmware developer using Farmware Tools (`import farmware_tools`), the reinstalled Farmware should continue working as before. If you have authored a Farmware that does not use the package, you will need to replace any FarmBot device communication in your Farmware to use the `farmware_tools` package.
* See the [Farmware developer documentation](https://developer.farm.bot/docs/farmware) for more information.

2020-05-16 10:29:55 -06:00
# v10
FarmBot OS v10 features an improved *Mark As* step. If you have previously added *Mark As* steps to sequences, you will need to update them before they can be executed by FarmBot:
* Open any sequences with a caution icon next to the name.
* Click the `CONVERT` button in each old *Mark As* step.
* Save the sequence.
* If you have auto-sync disabled, press `SYNC NOW` once all sequences have been updated.
* Verify that any events using the updated sequences are running as expected.
FarmBot OS auto-update was disabled prior to this release.
