Workplace Connect 1.1 — Release Notes
Highlights of what's new since release 1.0.2. This release focuses on expanded device configuration, a refreshed application shell, and improved sign-in and visibility behavior.
New device configuration
- MAX Connect settings added — MAX Connect now contains a similar settings to what is available on the device web console.
- Wireless network configuration — wired/wireless network tabs with HTTPS and 802.1x support.
- Device Logs screen — view and download device logs directly from the app.
- Firmware update — unified Update Firmware dialog with both Local and Cloud options, a cloud version picker, and downgrade support.
- Tesira settings — advanced settings restored, Devio firmware support, and standalone-mode polish.
Application shell & navigation
- Redesigned Apps dropdown — a Local / Cloud app switcher with a shared application header across MAX Connect, Tesira, and other apps; theme toggle and Support moved into the header.
- Connection status pill — the Devices table now shows a Connection pill in place of the IP column, with consistent styling across local and cloud devices.
Sign-in, accounts & visibility
- Org-based visibility — device status, location, and cloud connection are now gated by org visibility, with org names shown for enrolled devices and multi-select on the Devices tab.
- Login resilience — a cancel button to recover from a hung OIDC login, plus fixes for auto-login after a password change and 2FA handling.
1.0.2
Release Date: June 2026
New Features
- Unified Configuration App: Workplace Tools combines all Biamp device configuration utilities — Tesira Setting, Camera Config, UCC Config, and Bridge Devices Config — into a single desktop application, so installers and administrators no longer need to juggle separate programs for each device family.
- Device Discovery: The Connect screen finds Biamp devices on the local network and in your organization's cloud-registered fleet, with a single searchable, filterable view and a local-only toggle for on-site work.
- Manual IP Management: Add devices that are not on the local broadcast domain by entering their IP address manually; entries persist between sessions and show live reachability status in the device table.
- Site Inventory: The Devices screen organizes your registered devices within the full location hierarchy, with drag-and-drop reassignment, bulk operations across multiple devices, and automatic refresh every 30 seconds.
- Firmware Management: Stage and apply firmware updates for individual devices, batches, or entire device families from a single screen, with a live update queue and per-device firmware history.
- Guest Mode: Access local device discovery and basic configuration tools without signing in — ideal for bench testing or site visits where a cloud session is not available.
- Organization Switching: Switch between organizations directly from the app header after sign-in, with automatic region routing between US and EU environments.
- Light and Dark Themes: Choose between light and dark application themes; your preference is saved and restored between sessions.
