Known Bugs/Limitations
======================

1.65.4:L1
It's recommended to factory default the unit before making a downgrade if
needed.

1.65.4:L2
When using mp3 files with other samplerates than the native 16kHz
performance might suffer and delays be introduced.

1.65.4:L3
As action rules holds copies of recipient information independentally of the
Recipient configuration, it is possible to call a SIP recipient using an action
rule despite the recipient is removed in the Recipent configuration.

To prevent this, one must remove the recipient from the action rule too.

1.65.4:L4
It is not possible to send both RFC2388 and RFC2976 DTMFs through Asterisk at
the same time.

This limitation can be avoided by using one of RFC 2388 or RFC 2976. It can also
be avoided by using Asterisk to transcode into RFC 2976.

1.65.4:L5
Denied access does not show in access log (System Options>Support>Logs and
Reports>Access Log)

1.65.4:L6
When the device is facing up or down, tilt tampering detection fuctionality does
not work optimally and may generate to events oftern even though the device is
not moved or tilted.
(The gravity does not effect the two axis normally used for the tilt detection
making it sensitive to noise)
