Colours are inverted on the screen

[Kris74]

Hello,

someone could help me, the colors on the screen changed. I only changed the parameter via the OSTC.
The menu is on white background as you can the on the photo. Nothing change with the RAz menu.

Thanks for your advice

This is a mixture of a feature and a bug in your version.

Feature: The serial number should be displayed inverted when the firmware is older then one year.

Bug: The 1.86 has a bug that it inverts the main menu, as well.

Please upgrade to the latest 2.09 and it's fine again.

Regards,
Matthias

Thanks for your answer. I'll do it, but to tell the true, I've never connect the OSTC to my computer.
Is it a problem if I don't upgrade my OSTC? Does others problem will appear?

Three reasons why you should update.

a) It's free!

b) The changes and bugfixes since the 1.86:

BUGFIX: Compatibility with "hwOS Config" fixed

c) We spend a lot of effort in improving the firmware. Mainly I do the coding for the hwOS and it would be a shame if you don't use it and countless hours of my work were useless. Using the OSTC 2 without PC? Well, ok if you don't need it. But an update from time to time (Let's say every 6 months)? I strongly recommend it...
