Alarm Enhancer History Version 5.20, April, 1998 Non-registered Version A registration code is supplied to enable testing of the registered features. This code works on Sunday mornings. Registered Version The Check timer can be set when autooff is enabled. This will only come into effect if it longer than the remaining autooff period. The scrolling messages can be switched off. The alarm time is normally displayed on the System screen instead of a file name. This can be switched off. Technical Changes The Check timer has been changed to check the alarms 10 seconds before Autooff instead of cycling with an interval less than the autooff time. This should solve a possible problem of an alarm being missed caused by a combination of a short autooff period and a large Agenda file. A two second pause before the alarm time and two seconds of looping after the alarm have been replaced with asynchronous timers. Version 5.13, March, 1998 Some non-English Psions use a 2 letter short day name. Enhancer was not conistently using 2 letters rather than 3. Version 5.12, March, 1998 Some changes to the user interface. In particular, there is now immediate confirmation that registration has been successful. Technical change Alarm time now passed from the dialog to the alarm setting procedure as a time instead of a difference from the current time. Version 5.11, February, 1998 Non-registered version. Instead of scrolling, the Information screen now has a window showing the next alarm and a small scrolling area for messages. The information window updates only when it picks up a new alarm instead of at every test. Silent Alarm Beep no longer beeps on disabled alarms. The name under the Enhancer icon on the System screen now uses 00 instead of a single 0 for zero hours and minutes. Registered Version. Silent Alarm Beep can be set to less than 1 second. Option to display the information window to the right of the dialog. The Siena screen is too narrow for this to be useful on that machine. When more than one alarm has gone off, this is indicated to the left of the running clock in the dialog. The beeps that sound when a new alarm is detected can be switched off. Changes to message text and alarm sound are checked as well as the alarm time and disabled flag when testing for a new first alarm. Technical change The Menu key or hot key is passed to the configuration program via the configuration file instead of the interprocess messaging system. Version 5.02, January, 1998 New machine type added to solve German 3C disabled alarm problem. Information received from Dirk Straka indicates that machines with the German ROM version 5.21 should use the machine "3C" and those with German ROM 5.23F (and above?) should use "3C alternate" Version 5.01, January, 1998 Silent Alarm Beep added. Version 5.0, October, 1997 Delete key implemented in the dialog. If Enhancer.opa is on a flash disk, the configuration file is saved to the loc::m:\enhancer\ directory. Added a configuration program to register, configure default times, sticky times and the check timer. The registered version shows more of the message text in the dialog. The dialog in the registered version expands to show even more of the message text. The registered version shows the event time and date in the Enhancer dialog. Version 4.1, September, 1997 Enhancer now detects if an alarm is disabled. Version 4.0, July, 1997 Enhancer no longer stalls if an alarm goes off and is left unattended. Up to 4 alarms are remembered Option to allow the OFF key to be intercepted. Machine type and OFF key intercept setting are stored in a configuration file Running clock displayed on foreground screen. Version 3.3, June, 1997 This version works on the 3C, Siena as well as on the 3A. The alarm message is displayed on the Enhancer dialog screen. Bug fixes. Version 2.1, May, 1997. Beeps are at a lower frequency to be less intrusive. Version 2, May, 1997. Allows alarms to be rescheduled for several minutes (defaults: 5 and 10 minutes) or at a specific time (default: 1 hour from the current time). Enhancer's timer is now reset only if the time of the first alarm known by the Time application has changed. Beeps are sounded when Enhancer's timer is cancelled and set. Version 1, May, 1997. Allows alarm to be rescheduled for 5 minutes.
