DCR822 v1.45 (SUPER)/v1.33 (FPGA)/v1.01 (BOOT)
- Added the ability to save frequency scan data to an SD card. To do this, choose Save Scan from the SD Card menu.
- Smart Tune no longer runs slowly if one of the receivers is powered down.
- Smart Tune now correctly retunes the receiver to the original frequency when a user leaves the page in mid-scan. Previously, even though the original frequency was indicated on the display, the receiver was actually tuned to the last frequency scanned.
- On the Frequency page, when the kHz field has the focus, pressing MENU+UP or MENU+DOWN now adjusts frequency in 100 kHz steps.
- In Entry Edit page reached through the Group Edit page, the option to delete an entry is now a toggleable checkbox. To delete an entry, press MENU/SEL to navigate to the "Del" checkbox and press either the UP or DOWN button to check the box. Then press MENU/SEL again to show the "Go" soft button. Pressing the DOWN button will delete the entry and return to the Group Edit page.
- The UP+DOWN shortcut to open the Frequency page now works whether the device is locked or not.

DCR822 v1.41 (SUPER)/v1.33 (FPGA)/v1.01 (BOOT)

DCR822 v1.32 (SUPER)/v1.31 (FPGA)/v1.01 (BOOT)
- RF meter scale adjusted to more accurately represent received RF power levels.
- Added the ability to send and receive all tuning groups at once via IR sync. The new feature is available from the front panel or using Wireless Designer.
- Band A1B1 and B1C1 units now offer an "AU" locale setting which makes tuning range conform to allowed frequencies in Australia.
- It is now possible to perform a scan when receiver 1 is powered off. If powered off, the receiver is powered for the scan.
DCR822 v1.30 (SUPER)/v1.30 (FPGA)/v1.01 (BOOT)
- Now supports control by Wireless Designer via a USB connection. This requires Wireless Designer version 2.0.30 (or higher) for macOS or version 2.0.34 (or higher) for Windows.
- It is now possible to edit receiver names, transmitter names, and the 30 character device description from the LCD. The "use rx name" checkboxes are now also editable.
- The device description string from Wireless Designer is now shown on the top line of the About page, right after the word "About". If the description string is long, it will scroll.
- Group names from Wireless Designer are now included in SD card group load and save operations.
- IR operations "getall" and "sendall" now use receiver names or transmitter names, depending on the status of the Wireless Designer "use rx name" flags.
- SmartTune now allows more transmitter coverage choices (adding A1, B1, C1) for digital modes.
- Navigation through group frequencies is now subject to receiver range limits as well as any additional range limits imposed by locale, compatibility mode, nbblock and stepsize settings.
- Now upon successful insertion / removal of an audio SD card, the UI stays on the current page
- Now "get freq" and "get all" report an IR sync error if the target frequency is out of the receiver's tuning range.
- Rx Power page now displays a single On/Off switch if the receivers are combined in Frequency Diversity mode.
- Now when scrolling through frequencies in a Hybrid mode through frequencies shared by blocks 470 and 19, the block designator changes only when necessary.
- RF strip charts no longer show false full scale readings when receiver is powered on.
- It is now possible to switch to talkback mode during an active RF link.
DCR822 v1.13 (SUPER)/v1.09 (FPGA)/v1.01 (BOOT)
- Battery alert timer is now adjustable to 100 hours, covering the full range of possible battery timer readings.
- Tuning group navigation on the Frequency setup page now "wraps" at the limits: UP from the highest frequency in the group moves to the lowest frequency in the group, and DOWN from the lowest frequency in the group moves to the highest frequency in the group.
- Now, if one of the receiver's PLLs is experiencing an unlocked condition, the frequency display on the main window will blink. Blinking for a second or two when the frequency has just been changed, e.g. due to an IR sync even, is normal. Persistent blinking indicates an error requiring service. Note: This feature applies only to the main window. A blinking frequency display on the Frequency setup page indicates that the currently tuned frequency is not a member of the active tuning group.
- The transmitter battery timer now rolls at 99 hours 59 minutes. Previously it rolled at 9 hours 59 minutes, which is too short for some newer transmitter models.
- When using the Stop command in the SD Card menu to stop a recording in progress, the SD Card menu remains on the display. Previously, stopping a recording forced all menus to exit.
- A bug was fixed wherein the main window link indicator would indicate a good link even in encrypted modes requiring a key, when the receiver had no key. Now a blinking "KEY?" indication is correctly displayed in this case.
- During active reception of an encrypted digital signal (e.g. D2 mode), visiting the TxBat Type setup screen could result in an incorrect battery type being displayed for a fraction of a second, followed by the correct battery type. Now only the correct battery type is shown.
- Menus and submenus now return to the same highlighted item when reentered. Exceptions: Menu cursors are reset each time the receiver is powered on, and whenever the "Default" command is issued.
- Transmitter battery voltage is now displayed correctly in Digital Hybrid compatibility modes in the special case where only the right-hand antenna has a good signal.
- Now, if a change is made on the Frequency setup page which changes the associated frequency "block" without affecting the frequency, the pilot tone is updated immediately to reflect the change.
- Now, audio test tones register on the audio meters and appear in any ongoing SD card audio recordings.
