Deprecations

• FS1015, FS2012, and OB1203 sensor modules
• RYZ cellular modules
• ZMOD4410 Odor mode
• ZMOD4510 OAQ 1st Gen mode

Known Issues

• RA0E1:
  • e² studio projects automatically reset compiler optimization to a Size setting on every generate or build operation
    • Add optimization flags (e.g. -O0) manually to 'Other optimization flags' to override the -Oz setting
  • HS400x, ZMOD4xxx, and OB1203 sensors cannot be used on RA0E1
  • FS1015 and FS3000 sensors do not support SAU-I2C driver
• Selecting 'Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media' on Windows and eject the mass storage (PMSC), when using a USBX composite device (PCDC+PMSC), the Windows Explorer for PMSC does not disappear.
• PMSC may not work properly when the USBX Composite Device (PCDC+PMSC) is connected to a specific Linux OS (USB Host).
• e² studio Platform Installer:
  • When doing a Custom Install, compilers must be manually selected on the Additional Software step. Otherwise, the user must separately source, install, and integrate the toolchains in e² studio.

For known issues in the tools, please refer to the respective tool's release notes
